Lyrics for Song: Julie's Been Working For The Drug Squad
Lyrics for Album: Give 'Em Enough Rope [1978]
It's Lucy in the sky and all kinds of apple pie
She giggle[s] at the screen cos it looks so green
There's carpets on the pavement
And feathers in her eye
But sooner or later, her new friends will realise
That Julie's been working for the Drug Squad
Julie's been working for the Drug Squad
She can't even look you in the eye
(Well) Well it seemed like a dream; too good to be true
Stash it in the bank while the tablets grow high
In their Millions
And everybody's high (Hi, man...)
But there's someone looking down
From that mountain side
Cos Julie's been working for the Drug Squad
Cos julie's been working for the Drug Squad
Gumbo!
[And it's] Ten years for you
Nineteen for you
And you can get out in twentyfive
That is if you're still alive
Oh oh, Alive
Oh yeah, Alive
Oh oh, Alive
Oh!
And then there came the night of the greatest ever raid
They arrested every drug that had ever been made
They took eightytwo laws
Through eightytwo doors
And they didn't halt the pull
Till the cells were all full
Cos Julie's been working for the Drug Squad
Julie's been working for the Drug Squad
They put him in a cell, they said 'you wait here'
You got the time to count all of your hair
You got fifteen years
[That]'s a mighty long time
You could have been a physicist
But now your name is on the mailbag list
Julie's been working for the Drug Squad
Julie's been working for the Drug Squad
Gumbo!
Ten years for you
Nineteen for you
And you can get out in twentyfive
That is if you're still...
Alive
Oh oh, Alive
You're still
I said you're still
