lyrics

Where’s Joe Strummer now?
We need him more than ever
He’s railing at the politicians
With their hands buried deep in the pockets
Of the corporate executives
Who plunder the lower classes

La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
Where’s Joe Strummer? Where’s Joe Strummer? Where’s Joe Strummer now?

Where’s Joe Strummer now?
he pointed the way forward
He’s confronting every government
Sending the poor to fight their wars
You gotta keep that black oil flowing
Damn the cost in blood and treasure

La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
Where’s Joe Strummer? Where’s Joe Strummer? Where’s Joe Strummer now?

The Clash kicked us in the ass and then they brought us to our feet
A band you could believe in. A fight that we could share

Where’s Joe Strummer now
His voice moved hearts and minds
No call for violence or hatred
No matter how bleak it looked
He’s the patron saint
Of the working class

La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
Where’s Joe Strummer? Where’s Joe Strummer? Where’s Joe Strummer now?

Life can turn you upside down when you breathe life into your art
Joe stayed true to his vision. Peace and justice vanquish the world!
