(Same as chorus)
The jam kids on the vespas
And glum looks on their faces
The street is full of punks
They got spikes
See those rockers with their long curly locks
Goodnight to the rock and roll era
Cause they don't need you anymore
Little girl, boy, girl,
boy
D
Their composers are so distracted
G
Jasper's skinny arms
Bm
And the dance faction,
A
a little too loose for me

Laws are broken, amusing era
A
Round and round and round and round 
G

D
Pull out their plugs and they snort up their drugs

Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture kyle Professional	#1 by kyle mcdonough at Mar 22, 1971 at 7:52 PM EST
	I like the idea of telling "The Jam kids on the Vespas," the punks, and thr rockers, that the rock and roll era has ended.

No Picture Tyler Average	#2 by Tyler Hutchison at Feb 1, 1984 at 12:25 AM EST
	it is one of the best closing songs for an album

No Picture Dakota Average	#3 by Dakota Keyes at Aug 7, 2003 at 11:30 AM EST
	I agree, this is one of the best closing songs ever. It completely floored me when I heard it first time, and has only become more and more relevent to me with time. In fact, my only complaint about the LA's desert origins release was that there wasn't a long enough pause between this song and Camera, because I always thought the silence after it was almost as important as the song, and gave a great sense of catharsis.
