N.O.W. & THE-N - Ricky
lyrics
Ricky (1980)

Struggling further on
My eyes still crystal clear
When all is said and done
With innocence so near
Incomes steady now
Sales are climbing too
Life was once so simple
Wish I were in my shoes
Screaming in my drums
My nerves blood red
Tarred and feathered
At the side of my bed
So this is what its like
To be locked in
Jump from a window
Protesting within

Lets go for a walk through the park
Cant remember where the hell we parked

Breathed a lot of false words, seen leg-less people walk
Took it to the Supreme Court, said I was just all talk
Couldnt believe me sir, Rickys what I said
Hes just so damn depressing, no brains inside his head
Ghostly cadavers, laid out in line
No explanation, just pay up the fine
The cries so loud, just political noise
Somebody save our intelligence boys
