Chumbawamba - Solid Gold Easy Action Lyrics
Two little ducks sank with a knock, knock, knock
She got twenty on tick and smoked the bloody lot
The fridge was bare, the dog was bones
Weavin' and a-bobbin' when the tallyman calls
Mary, Mary, she went up the wall
Played the wild rover and climbed on board
Says, 'It's all that the lady of the manor can afford'
[CHORUS:]
I can't get no satisfaction, all I want is easy action
I can't get no satisfaction, all I want is easy action
Meet Miss Morrissey, fingers light
She lifted up his hat and he wept all night
She's the woman with the granny bag dressed to the nines
Candid camera on every bloody wall
All the cameras under Heaven couldn't catch 'em all
Fill those pockets and lift that grail
Lead me into temptation, girls
[CHORUS]
All the threes and all the queen bees
Singing 'does the driver wanna wee wee?'
Wicked ladies, malicious intent
Your honor, I was only trying to pick it up for lent.
Does the driver wanna wee wee?
Does the driver wanna wee wee?
Does the driver wanna wee wee?
'Cause we want to wee wee too!
Why waste change, why change the habit
If the girl's got to have it then the girl's got to have it
Easiest pickings, wall to wall,
In England's piped ceramic malls
By the dickens and the devil's daughter
Bingo full house everyone's a winner
The lady works in mysterious ways
All because the lady loves Christmas every day
[CHORUS 2x]
Too late, too late, too late, too late
Too late, too late, too late, too late
Too late, too late, too late, too late
Too late, too late, too late, too...
Some people wanna fill the world with silly love songs

Two little ducks sank with a knock, knock, knock
She got twenty on tick and smoked the bloody lot
The fridge was bare, the dog was bones
Weavin' and a-bobbin' when the tallyman calls
Mary, Mary, she went up the wall
And she kissed bye-bye to the holiest Joe
Played the wild rover and climbed on board
Says, 'It's all that the lady of the manor can afford'
I can't get no satisfaction, all I want is easy action
I can't get no satisfaction, all I want is easy action
Meet Miss Morrissey, fingers light
She lifted up his hat and he wept all night
She's the woman with the granny bag dressed to the nines
The pleasure and the privilege mine all mine
Candid camera on every bloody wall
All the cameras under Heaven couldn't catch 'em all
Fill those pockets and lift that grail
Lead me into temptation, girls
I can't get no satisfaction, all I want is easy action
I can't get no satisfaction, all I want is easy action

Too late, too late, too late, too late
Too late, too late, too late, too late

Big fan of T. rex and love this song. Most T. Rex covers stink; this has a fantastic groove and great vocals. I would love to hear a straight Bolan cover from Chumbawamba. I think they could pull off what most could not.
Strange really but the title of the album was the first thing I said when I heard this dreck.
Poor old Marc would be spinning in his urn, if he could hear this.
Utter garbage see Kim Wilde for the best cover version
I like this better than the original myself as it dares to bring a whole different and original take to the song, but each to his own. To quote Amaradaya, sort of, some "People commenting here seem to be under the impression that this track is supposed to be a straight forward cover of the T.Rex song. It isnt. Thats not what the concept behind the Jesus H Christ record was. It wasnt a covers record. It was to take small samples from well known songs and create something new around the sample and subvert the original message. I think this track, and many others on Jesus H Christ (and Shhhh!) have therefore succeeded in their mission.
" :)
it's a big fat nope for me now I must wash my ears out with some T.Rex. I won't rate up or down though because it's just not for me.
I fucking hate Chumbawamba and their pretentious prattling and this abuse of one of my favoutrite tracks ever has done nothing to change my mind. To be honest it was actually quite promising until the standard chumba-shit vocals kicked in. They need a punch in the face so bad.

I like it.
This rendition of this song is a fucking crime.My god its the worse.
You have to hear this in the context of the whole album - as a stand alone it's easy to dismiss it
Crikey that was bad, it's a big thumbs down from me i'm afraid.
Solid Gold Easy Action by T.Rex is my all time favourite single. This arrangement has potential but I wish they'd stuck to the original lyrics. Could have been good.
sorry but this a pishpoor kareoke version. WHO THE F*CK ARE CHUMBAWUMA? SCUM
As easy as picking foxes from a tree!!!!
catchy song
