So little time
Too many tragedies
Too many crimes
Put on your body armor
Prepare your alibis
'Cause there is no one else
Gonna put it right
To the rescue
Down the streets and alleyways
Past the Chinese takeaways
Through the wind and driving rain
To the rescue
When the world won't understand
Government's got other plans
Take the law into your hands
To the rescue
Got a vigilante
Sleeping in my bed
I looked for Marilyn
I got Che instead (yes I did)
But I'll march behind you
Wherever you may go
And I'm more proud of you
Than you can ever know
To the rescue
Through the snow and freezing rain
Down deserted country lanes
Round the world and back again
To the rescue
Taking the forgotten ones
Big and small, the old and young
When nobody else will come
You'll come to the rescue
To the rescue
So many heartbreaks So little time Too many tragedies Too many crimes Put on your body armor Prepare your alibis 'Cause there is no one else Gonna put it right To the rescue Down the streets and alleyways Past the Chinese takeaways Through the wind and driving rain To the rescue When the world won't understand Government's got other plans Take the law into your hands To the rescue Got a vigilante Sleeping in my bed I looked for Marilyn I got Che instead (yes I did) But I'll march behind you Wherever you may go And I'm more proud of you Than you can ever know To the rescue Through the snow and freezing rain Down deserted country lanes Round the world and back again To the rescue Taking the forgotten ones Big and small, the old and young When nobody else will come You'll come to the rescue To the rescue Explain Request ×
