Text: Lloyd Cole. Can't Get Arrested.

You've been talking in circles now for years, man
Lesson number one is change your attitude
People would like to help you

All you ever wanted was a picture with the queen
Ah, welcome to London
When you've arrived, well, you stay or you leave
Don't you know you're quite certain
Nothing is so pretty as it used to be, no, indeed

Could you entertain us with a song
With a very special melody we could sing along
And you know you should be grateful but I let it pass
'Cause you can't get arrested but you could kiss my ass
In Hollywood, yeah yeah, doo doo doo, yeah yeah, yeah yeah

You've been walking in circles now for years, man
Is your foot nailed to the floor or do you like it here
People would like to get to know you

All you ever wanted was a picture with the queen
Ah, welcome to London
When you've arrived, well, you stay or you leave
Don't you know you're quite certain

If you decide boy you'll stay on your leash
Well, we'll reward you quite handsome
When you've arrived, well, you stay, you leave
Don't you know you're quite certain
Nothing is so pretty as it used to be, no, indeed

Could you entertain us with a song
With a very special melody we could sing along
Well, you know you should be grateful but I let it pass
'Cause you can't get arrested, you could kiss my ass

You know my first instinct's to kick you now you're down
And you come waltzing in, think that you could push me around
Well, you know you should be grateful, should I let it pass
'Cause you can't get arrested but you could kiss my ass
In Hollywood, doo doo, doo doo doo, doo, doo doo doo
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah

Sunset and vine, on sunset and vine
Ah, on sunset and vine
Have a real good time
Ah, on sunset, on sunset and vine

Have a real good time
Ah, on sunset, yeah, on sunset
Ah, on sunset and vine
You, you can't get arrested

You, you can't get arrested
You, you can't get arrested
You, you can't get arrested
On sunset, ah, ah, on sunset

You, you can't get arrested
You, you can't get arrested
Ah, on sunset, ah, on sunset
Ah, on sunset, ah, on sunset

Can't get arrested
Can't get on
