Sonidos en Rojo (XVI)
The Clash looking at the Red River



Say, where did I see this guy? 
In Red River? 
Or a place in the sun? 
Maybe the Misfits? 
Or From Here to Eternity? (...)


Everybody say, "Is he all right?" 
And everybody say, "What's he like?" 
And everybody say, "He sure look funny." 
That's...Montgomery Clift, honey! 

New York, New York, 42nd Street 
Hustlers rustle and pimps pimp the beat 
Monty Clift is recognized at dawn 
He ain't got no shoes and his clothes are torn 

And everybody say, "Is he all right?" 
And everybody say, "What's he like?" 
And everybody say, "He sure look funny." 
That's that Montgomery Clift, honey! 

I see a car smashed at night 
Cut the applause and dim the light 
Monty's face is broken on a wheel 
Is he alive? Can he still feel? 

And everybody say, "Is he all right?" 
And everybody say, "shine the light” 
Everybody say, "He sure look funny." 
That's Montgomery Clift, honey! 

Seen his right profile 

And everybody say, "Is he all right?" 
And everybody say, "What's he like?" 
And everybody say, "He sure look funny." 
That's...Montgomery Clift, honey! 

Nembutal numbs it all 
But I prefer… alcohol! 

And everybody say, "Is he all right?" 
And everybody say, "What's he like?" 
And everybody say, "He sure look funny." 
That Montgomery Clift, honey! 

He said go out and get me my old movie stills 
Go out and get me another roll of pills 
There I go again shaking, but I ain't got the chills 
ARRRGHHHGORRA BUH BHUH DO ARRRRGGGGHHHHNNNN!!!! 

And everybody say, "What's he like?" 
And everybody say, "Is he all right?" 
Everybody say, "He sure look funny." 
Ah but that's Montgomery Clift, honey!
