bangers 'n' mash

2006 May 9 | Heineken Music Hall | Amsterdam | Netherlands

bit me, bit me, bit me, ow
i've got the poison, the poison, the poison now

i'm standing in the hall
puking at the wall
it's all in sound to the conger eel
the bangers in the mash
the negatives for cash
you're either in the club, baby, or you're not

whatever turns you on
whatever gets you off
chief of police or vice-chancellor
i know every 'blah blah, the vicar and the judge
you're all dancing to my little red book

because she bit me, bit me, bit me, ow
i got the poison, the poison
and now I want more

if you are on the top
then it is a long drop
the pyramid is power
we're changing by the hour

if you are on the top
then it is a long drop
if you stare into the dark,
the dark will stare back
back into your soul

i want to thank you, thank you, thank you all
i'm having such a good time, good time
i'm having a ball

i'm taking you down, I'm taking you down
i'm taking you down, when I go down
i'm taking you down, I'm taking you down,
i'm standing in the hall, kicking at the wall

bit me, bit me, bit me, ow
bit me, bit me, bit me, ow
i got the poison

the line "i know every 'blah blah, decline to judge'" I think is "lord and lady baa baa / a vicar and a judge" (baa like sheep, or maybe "bought by," hard to tell).

Thank you. I think you're right. I will change it to 'baa baa.' Some things are difficult to hear. :)
