Lyrics
If you can play on the fiddle
How's about a British jig and reel?
Speaking King's English in quotation
As railhead towns feel the steel mills rust
Water froze
In the generation
Clear as winter ice
This is your paradise
There ain't no need for ya
There ain't no need for ya
Go straight to hell, boys, go straight to hell, boys
Wanna join in a chorus
Of the Amerasian blues?
When it's Christmas out in Ho Chi Minh City
Kiddie say papa papa papa papa pappa-san, take me home
See me got
Photo photo photograph of you and mamma mamma mamma-san
Of you and mamma mamma mamma-san
Let me tell you 'bout your blood, bamboo kid
It ain't Coca-Cola, it's rice
Straight to hell
Go straight to hell boys
Go straight to hell
Go straight to hell boys
Oh Papa-san
Please take me home
Oh Papa-san
Everybody, they wanna go home
So Mamma-san says
You want to play mind-crazed banjo
On the druggy-drag ragtime U.S.A.?
In Parkland International
Ha, junkie-dom U.S.A
Where pro-caine proves the purest rock man groove
And rat poison
The volatile Molotov says
Straight to hell
Can you really cough it up loud and strong?
The immigrants, they wanna sing all night long
It could be anywhere
Most likely could be any frontier any hemisphere
In no-man's-land
There ain't no asylum here
King Solomon he never lived 'round here
Straight to hell, boys
Go straight to hell, boys
Go straight to hell, boys
Go straight to hell, boys
Oh, papa-san, please take me home

One of their greatest and saddest songs ever. Joe was a genius.

R.I.P. Joe Strummer, Straight To Heaven, Boy

40 years later and the musical arrangement for this song is still a mind blower. Joe was a rare talent

The clash made 20 million dollars of the MIA sample. MIA and Diplo kept the other 20 million. Yeah that single paper plane song revenued 40 million alone

One of the most important social songs. These should never be forgotten years

I can’t listen to this without becoming quite disturbed. I was backpacking around Southeast Asia and I was in Cambodia for about three weeks. I was directed to a group of Buddhist monks at one time and bought some weed and five acid tabs off them. I remember walking through this town tripping and seeing the grinding poverty, there were so many people begging with missing limbs. It was then that I learned about how Cambodia has perhaps the worlds highest concentration of anti personnel mines. There were women coming up to me begging holding out an empty baby bottle and holding an emaciated baby. It was the worst trip of my life. I felt like dirt. Like some awful poverty voyeur. I gave as much as I could to beggars and the hungry but I could never give enough. It was at this point that I understood why my Dad had become a doctor of tropical medicine.....he wanted to help such poor, unfortunate people. I just happened to be listening to this album on my Walkman at the time. I will never forget the inequity of that land. At the same time that I was seeing limbless beggars I was seeing Cambodians driving expensive SUV’s and Mercedes. There were Golden Buddhas. If I was poor in Cambodia I don’t think I’d beg, I’d get a gun (ten a penny out there) and mug Western holiday makers.

Still, after all these years, so brilliant, relevant and painful. "There ain't no asylum here. King Solomon he never lived 'round here."

Best Clash song imo. Amazing lyrics, that dubby baseline, fantastic Topper rhythms and Mick getting experimental on guitar. I read once that after recording the lyrics at a studio in New York Joe came out of the subway and suddenly realised they'd just produced something amazing. Which they did. RIP.

The most complex and haunting song that The Clash ever wrote. An absolute masterpiece from an amazingly talented band. Thank you for leaving such a wonderful legacy.

I really do think that this is one of the greatest songs ever written.

Don't cry because he has gone...smile because he existed.

My Dad Loved this. He used to "play the gasfire" to this. He'd have his arse to the fire in our shitty Leicester terraced house and whack the sides in time to the drums. I miss the early 80's and I miss my Dad. RIP

By far the best group to emerge from the late seventies UK punk scene.
A depth and musicianship of the highest order. Bless 'em

Singing ain't just about the voice. It's more about sincerity, emotion and your passion towards music. Joe strummer was a proof of it. Croaky voice but it fit perfectly to the kind of music they made, the ambience around it.
