"Lester Sands"
(Howard Devoto / Pete Shelley)

Lester Sands has been working very hard
Keeping up with what's gone down
Lester Sands is really in touch
With what is whose in town
Lester Sands bores the ass off me
Lester Sands is a big head case
I am getting so sick of the sight of
Lester Sands' new face

He thinks he'll be someone some day (no way)
He thinks he'll get somewhere some way (no way)
Lester Sands is a drop in the ocean
Lester Sands is a drop in the ocean
Lester Sands, a drop in the ocean

He'd better pull himself together
Do something speedy or else
Lester Sands will be shown the ropes
And Lester Sands will hang himself
Lester Sands big mouth extraordinaire
He's pulled a muscle in his head
Lester Sands strings words together
'Cause his senses have fled

He thinks he'll be someone some day (no way)
He thinks he'll get somewhere some way (no way)
Lester Sands is a drop in the ocean
Lester Sands is a drop in the ocean
Lester Sands, a drop in the ocean

Lester Sands is a stupid fucker
Lester Sands will stay that way
Lester Sands just gathers his trash
And brings it 'round here every day
Lester Sands, I think you'd better scram
If you wanna get out alive
Are you looking to get friendly
With somebody's bunches of fives

He thinks he'll be someone some day (no way)
He thinks he'll get somewhere some way (no way)
Lester Sands is a drop in the ocean
Lester Sands is a drop in the ocean
Lester Sands, a drop in the ocean
