Rag and Bone Lyrics

(Rag and bone) rag and bone
(Rag and bone) rag and bone

Meg, look at this place
What? Woo
Well, this place is like a mansion
It's like a mansion, look at all this stuff
I dunno
Look, I see something over there
Woo, man

Well, can't you hear us selling "rag and bone"?
Bring out your junk and we'll give it a home
A broken trumpet or a telephone
Ah, come on, ah, come on, ah, come on
Come on and give it to me

Yeah

Ah, come on, ah, come on, ah, come on
Come on and give it to me

Oh, rag and bone
Rag and bone
Ah, come on, ah, come on, ah, come on
Come on and give it to me

All of your pretty
Your pretty little rags and bones

Well, man, look at all this, you don't want it?
(I could use that)
You sure you don't want it, man? (I could use)
Take it
It's just things you don't want, I can use 'em
Meg can use 'em, we can do something with 'em
We'll make something out of 'em
Make some money out of 'em at least

This fits me perfect
Give it to me
Hey, if you ain't gonna use it, just give it to us
We'll give it a home

Well, have they got something shiny for me?
Anybody got a Christmas tree?
Can you partwith a toilet seat?
Ah, jump up, ah, jump up, ah, jump up
Come on and give it to me

Rag and bone

We wanna get it, granny, while it's hot
You think it's trash, granny, but it's not
Oh, we'll be taking whatever you got
Ah, give up, ah, give up, ah, give up
Come on and give it to me

Woo

All of your pretty
Your pretty little rags and bones

I saw some stuff in your yard are you gonna give it to us?
Ah, Meg, don't be rude
Or not?
They might need it
If you don't want it, we'll take it
If you don't wanna give it to us, we'll keep walking by
We'll keep going we're not tired
Got plenty of places to go, lots of homes we ain't been to yet
On the west side, the south-west side
Middle east, rich house, dog house, outhouse, old folks' house
House for unwed mothers, halfway homes, catacombs, twilight zones
Look at what techniques turn tables to gramophones
So take a last lick of your ice-cream cone
And lock up what you still wanna own
But please be kind (take your time)
And don't rewind (it's fine)

All of your pretty
Your pretty little rags and bones
Yeah
Your pretty little rags and bones
Ah, jump up, ah, jump up, ah, jump up
Come on and give it to me

Oh
your pretty little rags and bones
Ah, come on, ah, come on, ah, come on
Come on and give it to us

Yeah
Yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah

Yeah
Yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
