Lyrics Take A Long Line (La Trobe University 1979) - The Angels
This
is
it
folks
Ah,
très
bien
He
was
selling
postcards
from
a
paper
stand
A
whisky
bottle
in
his
withered
hand
Put
his
finger
on
a
photo
from
an
old
magazine
Saw
himself
in
the
shadow
of
his
dream
Found
him
with
his
head
inside
a
tin-pot
crown
Told
him
his
feet
stank,
then
took
him
downtown
Called
him
agitator,
spy
and
a
thief
Shut
him
up
in
solitary,
third
degree
Take
a
long
line
Take
a
long
line
Take
a
long
line
Reel
him
in
He
tried
to
appeal
to
the
king
of
might
Said,
"I'm
just
exercising
my
sacred
right"
King
he
said,
"You
ain't
got
no
right
You're
a
madman,
traitor,
get
outta
my
sight"
Take
a
long
line
Take
a
long
line
Take
a
long
line
Reel
him
in
Yo,
U-M-O
Found
him
with
his
head
inside
a
tin-pot
crown
Told
him
his
feet
stank,
then
took
him
downtown
Called
him
agitator,
spy
and
a
thief
Shut
him
up
in
solitary,
third
degree
Then
they
put
him
aboard
a
well-wound
whirlwind
Pulled
out
his
teeth
and
they
told
him
to
grin
Gave
them
a
smile,
pulled
out
a
bottle
of
wine
Said,
"I
never
existed,
you've
been
wasting
your
time"
Take
a
long
line
Take
a
long
line
Take
a
long
line
Reel
him
in
Take
a
long
line
Take
a
long
line
Take
a
long
line
Reel
him
in
Take
a
long
line
Take
a
long
line
Take
a
long,
long,
long,
long
line
Reel
him
in
