Brute Force and Ignorance - Rory Gallagher

Brute Force and Ignorance
Just hit town
Looking like survivors
From the Lost and Found
Brute Force and Ignorance
Have come to play
A one-night stand at eight o'clock
Then they'll be on their way
This old town's exploding
And the mayor's uptight
He'd like to make it to the show
But he knows it's not his night
He's got to be beholding
To his legal spouse
But she's put the thumbscrews on him
And snuck out of the house
There she goes
The picture on the poster
Raised an eyebrow or two
At fifty-five to seven
Lord you should've seen the queue
City slick and country hick
They came one and all
The traffic-light girl and the downhome kids
Assembled in the hall
Brute Force and Ignorance
Yes that's the name
The young folks gonna miss them
Now they've gone away
Well the show got so crazy
Today they took the billboard down
I'll never forget the scene last night
When the band was escorted out of town
This little town's back in slow motion
I'm sad to say
After the confusion
It'll never be the same
Well I took a walk down Main Street
Just to pass the time
And I could hear that music
Still rolling through my mind
Brute Force and Ignorance
They sure hit town
And if you want to find them buddy
They're down at the Lost and Found
