The Clash, "Stay Free"
Misheard Lyrics:
Go on a drinking spree
Hit the wrong guy
Each of you get free
Years a wastin'.
Hit the wrong guy
Each of you get free
Years a wastin'.
Original Lyrics:
Go on a nicking spree
Hit the wrong guy
Each of you get three
Years in Brixton.
Hit the wrong guy
Each of you get three
Years in Brixton.
With the Cockney accent, 'three' sounds like 'free'.
