First Drafts of Rock: 'Should I Stay or Should I Go' by The Clash (w/Kevin Bacon)

First Drafts of Rock takes a look at the original version of The Clash's "Should I Stay or Should I Go" featuring Kevin Bacon. Full lyrics below:

KEVIN
Darling you got to let me know
Should I stay or should I go?
If you want to have me stay
Then I will not go away
But if you just want me to go
Then just say, “Hey you should go.”

JIMMY
If I stay I will be here
But if I go I won’t be here
If I go I will be there
And if I stay I won’t be there
So just to recap go means there
And if I stay then that means here

JIMMY/KEVIN
Should I stay or should I go now?
Should I stay or should I go now?
If I go I will not stay here
If I stay I will not go there
So come on and let me know…

KEVIN
I got no problem either way
Would you prefer for me to stay?
You know what, how ‘bout I just stay?
Unless you think I shouldn’t stay
On second thought, maybe I’ll go
But on third thought, I think I’ll stay

JIMMY
I got a coin that I will throw

KEVIN
Heads I stay, tails I go

JIMMY
Where's the coin, Mick, do you know?

KEVIN
Wait I thought you had the coin, Joe

JIMMY
Did you check in your coin sorter?

KEVIN
I did but could not find the quarter

JIMMY
I don't know what to do at all

KEVIN
We should ask a Magic 8-Ball

JIMMY
The 8-Ball says Ask Again Later

KEVIN
Mine also says Ask Again Later

JIMMY
I think I know just what to do
Why don't I ask my Rubik’s cube?

KEVIN
Cuz it's a cubic 3D puzzle

JIMMY
That’s cool, it really is no trouble

KEVIN
Fine, did it tell you you should go?

JIMMY
It told me blue, red, and yellow.

JIMMY/KEVIN
A Rubik's Cube can’t answer questions
A Rubik's Cube can’t answer questions
A Rubik's Cube can’t answer questions
A Rubik's Cube can’t answer questions

KEVIN
What should we do, I still don’t know

JIMMY
You know what? We're just gonna go.
