The Fall - 2 x 4 Lyrics

He was agin the rich
He was agin the rich
He was agin the poor
He was agin the poor
He was agin the rich
He was agin the poor
He was agin the rich
He was against all trepidation

He was agin the rich
On the loose again
He was agin the rich

There's a new fiend on the loose
On the back of the exhaust clip
Clipped on rich and poor alike
Come to roost again once more

Ol' Nick doesn't go from digs to digs
No more (hit him on the head with a 2 X 4)
Nowadays he has a Georgian glazed porch (hit him on the head with a 2 X 4)

He was agin the rich
He was agin the rich
He was agin the poor
He was agin the poor

There's a new fiend on the loose
On the back of the exhaust clip
Clipped on rich and poor alike
Come to roost again once more

He said hit him on the head
With a 2 X 4
He said hit him on the head
With a 2 X 4

He was agin the rich
He was agin the poor
He was agin the poor
Used table leg
To club son-in-law

New fiend
Again, go home my friend
New fiend in your home again (Jimmy cracks corn)
And then went wrong
Jimmy cracks corn
And then went wrong
Jimmy cracks corn
And then went wrong

He said show me my quarters and glasses
He said show me my quarters and glasses

There's a new fiend on the loose
Jolting in his tradition
It's a fear of the obtuse
He's got patents on the moaning
