+ | ==== The Right To Reply ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | The house, | ||
+ | Looks for an answer to end all the violence. | ||
+ | The ungovernable finally break silence, | ||
+ | There' | ||
+ | That still won't stop us, it's no solution. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The right and the left wing continue to bore, | ||
+ | With pre-dated policies all heard before. | ||
+ | This is mankind now see how mankind kills, | ||
+ | We're hitting back hard now you see how it feels. | ||
+ | |||
+ | They preach and teach examinational tests, | ||
+ | So the political privileged can order the rest | ||
+ | Of the young parasites, who live in a world without hope, | ||
+ | To get back in line, and stay there, then assure us they' | ||
+ | |||
+ | In the new violent britain they pledge to invest, | ||
+ | In skills and communities with renewed interest. | ||
+ | To build schools of education, not colleges of crime | ||
+ | A manifesto so perfectly timed. | ||
+ | Providing help for the helpless, their new commissions strive, | ||
+ | For a stable re-educated society by nineteen-ninety-five. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Meanwhile, we fight on in desperation trying to break through. | ||
+ | Their barriers of insanity and even now they know it's true, | ||
+ | That to eradicate violence effectively, | ||
+ | But instead they choose to compensate, | ||
+ | To lie and then collaborate, | ||
+ | No interest in any true debate, | ||
+ | Their courts set up the offenders fate, | ||
+ | The new secure units for the old custodial sentence. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Well we have listened to you for long enough, | ||
+ | Taken all your threats, and you ain't so tough. | ||
+ | You intimidate, then punish the persistent hard-core offender. | ||
+ | You condemn more and understand less, you'll get no apologies ever. | ||
+ | In an atmosphere of moral panic, you blame us for fighting back. | ||
+ | But it's us that's been dragged through your streets backwards, battered, | ||
+ | shell-shocked and attacked. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The pressure' | ||
+ | But we ain't even started. | ||
+ | They may think that they have been tested, | ||
+ | But no way for we still stand divided. | ||
+ | More and more we're turning against our own, | ||
+ | How come? How have we forgot? | ||
+ | That this is the one thing they want us to do, | ||
+ | To compensate | ||
+ | For the freedom that we ain't got. | ||
+ | Some mug old folks and these are scum | ||
+ | It's the one main thing that just ain't done. | ||
+ | We can deal perfectly with our own problems, | ||
+ | By taking the law in to our own hands. | ||
+ | We can protect our own, young, the weak, and | ||
+ | Elderly, and therefore smash their callous plans. | ||
+ | |||
+ | I shall not work to build my death | ||
+ | Nor have decisions made by fools, | ||
+ | For my or your behalf. | ||
+ | As though I can't see or hear | ||
+ | Of that which surrounds me, | ||
+ | As though I'm quite content | ||
+ | With all that, that disgusts me. | ||
+ | I will not build for another' | ||
+ | Although it always ends up the same, | ||
+ | It's as though I can't see or hear, | ||
+ | As though I'm content, | ||
+ | With everything that disgusts me. | ||
+ | |||
+ | How can they talk about low life, whilst they' | ||
+ | How can they take away someone' | ||
+ | |||
+ | To the people with feelings, to those not totally succeeding, | ||
+ | Those, shattered, torn, ripped right in half, and whose broken hearts are | ||
+ | bleeding. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Yet still they bash and batter, | ||
+ | To them, man onslaught, does not matter. | ||
+ | They create society' | ||
+ | That everything is alright. | ||
+ | Then when people voice opinion and object, | ||
+ | They show disgust, confusion and then demonstrate their might. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Don't you dare think for a moment, that it's only in a riot that we show we' | ||
+ | discontent. | ||
+ | It's in every so called criminal act, that we demonstrate our contempt. | ||
+ | You shove your outstanding promises, your respect. I only have respect for the | ||
+ | life | ||
+ | That you destroy time and time and time again, then dismiss in your stride. | ||
+ | |||
+ | I'm still hoping for the hopeless, | ||
+ | And making excuses for the lawless. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Someday Soon ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Someday soon we'll take vacations on the moon. | ||
+ | Someday soon we'll build great cities under water. | ||
+ | And someday soon we'll create the ultimate human being. | ||
+ | And someday soon you won't believe just what you're seeing. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Yet they can't find a cure for a common cold, | ||
+ | But they can reconstruct a face, back to the young from the old. | ||
+ | The cancer spreads, the A.I.D.S. develops in it's victims, | ||
+ | Science counts the cost in lives, the cause and not the cure succeeds. | ||
+ | |||
+ | A child fights for life, in a state of confusion. | ||
+ | Dragged up in a cesspit full of class ' | ||
+ | The progress chart monitors, brilliant achievements. | ||
+ | It's a world where technology easily outweighs bereavement. | ||
+ | The market remains flooded with drugs that only suppress, | ||
+ | Twenty types that all do the same thing, profit and screw all the rest. | ||
+ | Who drop dead in the queue, to receive operations, | ||
+ | As the government reveal their new million pound sensation. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Dancing at the policemen' | ||
+ | We sing our songs of disgust, but they don't hear a thing | ||
+ | With heads held up high they raise a toast to progression, | ||
+ | And a record breaking turnover tenth year in succession. | ||
+ | |||
+ | There stands a woman she has no face, | ||
+ | Her baby cries out dying arms outstretched for embrace. | ||
+ | They have no stake in the society that demands their respect. | ||
+ | A world with any hope is all they can expect. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Someday soon we'll take vacations on the moon. | ||
+ | And someday soon we'll build great cities under water, yeah! | ||
+ | Someday soon we'll create the ultimate human being. | ||
+ | And someday soon. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ==== No More Excuses ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Safe as sound (x13) | ||
+ | |||
+ | What am I talking about? | ||
+ | Of course, it's not safe. | ||
+ | Look at what corporate gain is doing to our children, and our sanity? | ||
+ | Insanity! | ||
+ | Sanitary, insanitary | ||
+ | Am I left fit to believe? | ||
+ | Am I left fit? Fit for what? | ||
+ | What for? For who? | ||
+ | Who gains? | ||
+ | Weight gains? | ||
+ | Weight watchers? | ||
+ | Watching what? | ||
+ | Watching who? | ||
+ | Who's watching? | ||
+ | No more questions. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Wanting existence, wanting a distance. | ||
+ | Wanting existence, wanting to exist. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Before the thinking, | ||
+ | The sun kills alone, | ||
+ | After the thought. | ||
+ | |||
+ | If this is how you see it, | ||
+ | You have to make it known. | ||
+ | If this is how you free it, | ||
+ | You have to make it known. | ||
+ | This is how you see it, you just have to make it known. | ||
+ | This is not too serious, to have to make it known. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Sick | ||
+ | After | ||
+ | Choosing | ||
+ | Carelessly | ||
+ | Health | ||
+ | Aids | ||
+ | Replacement | ||

+ | Climate | ||

+ | Wanting a distance. | ||
+ | Wanting existence. | ||
+ | I want my distance, | ||
+ | I want to exist | ||
+ | As safe as sound (x5) | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ==== A Declaration Of Independence ==== | ||
+ | |||

+ | Understand the perspective, | ||
+ | We're simply trying to connect nowadays, but does anybody want to know? | ||

+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | They say, we're standing firmly in the rain simply waiting for it to stop. | ||
+ | They said, that we should build new umbrellas because we're stuck in our own | ||
+ | rut. | ||
+ | I say, blow away the rain clouds, for the new horizon is crystal clear. | ||
+ | It's took sometime, but we're on the right track. Now where do we go from here? | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | Sick and tired of worthless statements, pissed off with the same old songs. | ||
+ | You stuff your moral rule book of what's allowed, what's right and wrong. | ||
+ | Oh yeah! There' | ||
+ | Solutions? Ideas? Just raked up shit! What a clever thing to do. | ||
+ | |||
+ | We must strive on for what we know is right, we know all too well there' | ||
+ | in sight | ||
+ | But human nature is still on our side as the politicians fall into landslide. | ||
+ | |||

+ | |||
+ | |||

+ | Well are you? | ||

+ | ==== The Institution Of Dreams ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Human nature beams for all to see, the story now unfolds. | ||
+ | As they wonder into wonderland, their lives, the starring role. | ||
+ | He makes his move so carefully, as he takes her by the hand. | ||
+ | He whispers that he loves her, so she fails to understand. | ||
+ | Strolling lives, angelic passages, with visions crystal clear. | ||
+ | He demonstrates his love for her. She hides away her fears. | ||
+ | He showers her with prizes, she's the first in his love life! | ||
+ | He piles on the emotions. But she don't want to be his wife. | ||
+ | |||
+ | "You and I will build a dream together, | ||
+ | Give me your heart I'll love forever. | ||
+ | When I hold your hand, | ||
+ | I start to understand, | ||
+ | What they mean when they say love, | ||
+ | What we mean when we say love." | ||
+ | |||
+ | "Well now you really better love me so or I will hate your guts??? | ||
+ | Your mine all mine no ifs or buts, no one else must ever touch, | ||
+ | And to you I now give all my heart, | ||
+ | As I knew I would right from the start. | ||
+ | Our gold band now engages us within the institute of dreams." | ||
+ | |||
+ | They ride the path towards married bliss, but something' | ||
+ | Those visions now seem so distorted, they disagree and fight. | ||
+ | Both now miss their freedom. But this contract they' | ||
+ | In acceptance with society' | ||
+ | Looking back in time she thinks what's life got in store from here? | ||
+ | Confused, twisted, sick inside he drowns in another beer. | ||
+ | With tears in eyes he walks away he's convinced that, that is that! | ||
+ | But absences makes the heart grow fonder, and now he begs her to come back. | ||
+ | |||
+ | She finds a man to compensate. | ||
+ | He wins at home, she plays away. | ||

+ | They patch it up for the umpteenth time as this tale takes another twist. | ||

+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Climbimg The Stairs ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Standing alone in a mystery. | ||
+ | Standing alone in misery. | ||
+ | I'm standing alone, it's a mystery? | ||
+ | The start of the war, it's the first to die | ||
+ | So on my own, in not the place to be | ||
+ | |||
+ | First, I see a visions of insane men | ||
+ | Unaware on the stairs, caught by the same gang | ||
+ | Pure hatred on young and aged faces | ||
+ | One, two, three, they ain't leaving traces | ||
+ | |||
+ | As someone pushes past, I'm track right in their path | ||
+ | I try to respond, but this just raises a laugh | ||
+ | A clenched fist punches hard, smashing the face | ||
+ | I try to turn and run, but they' | ||
+ | Pulling hard on the stair rail, but this ain't my night | ||
+ | My shirt rips in two, as they hold me so tight | ||
+ | I feel a terrible blow, as something collides with skull | ||
+ | I fight back so hard, but the blades take their toll | ||
+ | So many shots on target, on the floor curled up tight | ||
+ | The crazed just won't stop, is this finally goodnight? | ||
+ | Now a feeling so strange, something won't let it die | ||
+ | And can't let them screw up the rest of our lives. | ||
+ | |||
+ | I'm losing all, all track of time | ||
+ | I feel the pain of a real life crime | ||
+ | Boy they roar, let's open up his head | ||
+ | Hey you, see how far you've pushed this | ||
+ | I'm now praying that someone will turn up soon | ||
+ | I'm unaware they' | ||
+ | I shout, "Hey, what am I getting this for? | ||
+ | I weren' | ||
+ | But the baton rains down, the boots pile in | ||
+ | Why don't they leave it, look at the state that I'm in | ||
+ | The choppers chops hard, the blade cuts deep | ||
+ | Flesh hangs off in slices and I start to weep | ||
+ | The baton rains down, the boots pile in | ||
+ | I feel a strange peacefulness building up within | ||
+ | The choppers chops hard, the blood runs red | ||
+ | I feel total release, I think I must be dead | ||
+ | |||
+ | Back alive in the shadow of a dead man | ||
+ | I'm not alone? I'm reaching for the stair rails | ||
+ | Instead I grab the hand of the father | ||
+ | I see a face, it's the face of my mother | ||
+ | There' | ||
+ | Whose strong man is helping me | ||
+ | Climb up the stairs from the misery | ||
+ | Climb and climb, the stairs from the misery | ||
+ | Climbing the stairs | ||
+ | For the unaware? | ||
+ | To see | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ==== A Question Of Priorities | ||
+ | |||
+ | The winds of change are now blowing again, I can sense it, I can feel it, like a | ||
+ | breath of fresh air. | ||
+ | Thousands upon thousands of words, is our right to reply. | ||
+ | A question of priorities, in a universal role. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Memories surround of bitter times, so don't expect too much, as all seems lost, | ||
+ | when the world finally says give up. | ||
+ | From the dark wind wept streets, I see a glimmer of light, of hope, a presence | ||
+ | of defiance. | ||
+ | I wonder, and I realise, that while some wait for miracles, others may help | ||
+ | create them. | ||
+ | |||
+ | From a room that has no view, I gaze from the window; I consider our purpose, | ||
+ | the cold stars look down, and there' | ||
+ | always looking, strange, cos it's, it's like, it's like careful observation, | ||
+ | sweetest manipulation, | ||
+ | trust, a feeble structure fleeing, responsibility and feelings, and I wonder | ||
+ | who, what, why where and when and if in fact I'm still believing? | ||
+ | In all those moments we've shared. | ||
+ | Of all the things that we have been through. | ||
+ | I feel happiness, sadness, remember the places that we have been to push our | ||
+ | views and ideas home. | ||
+ | Of meeting people who feel alone. | ||
+ | Of seeing anguished faces smile again, | ||
+ | An achievement? | ||
+ | |||
+ | As we swim from the shore, I can feel the undercurrent. | ||
+ | I hear songs of hope and glory, but how deep is their ocean? | ||
+ | We turn and face obsession, a painful reminder from tomorrow. | ||
+ | The seas a funny shade of blue now, do we drown in mistakes sorrow? | ||
+ | A nation remains silent, burnt out skulls, blank expressions. | ||
+ | An image of convenience, | ||
+ | Blind in the one-eyed kingdom, following those who followed last, | ||
+ | Who follow those, who followed before them. Is there a future in the past? | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Is Never To Die ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | I have slept so long, for so long. | ||
+ | There lies my regret, sighing and grieving. | ||
+ | Had I known I could tremble so, what now I know. | ||
+ | I would never have shown my soul. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Leaping, like an eager flame. | ||
+ | After all who is to blame? | ||
+ | There lies my regret, shining and grieving. | ||
+ | |||
+ | And as this evening falls, | ||
+ | To close, for closed eyes. | ||
+ | Take that backward glance, | ||
+ | And see, see what lies behind. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Recall the time when all the world, | ||
+ | Just seemed to recline, | ||
+ | Within our hands and was washed away, | ||
+ | Like the fleeting summer rain. | ||
+ | Gentle memories of our finest day, | ||
+ | Can we ever hope to regain? | ||
+ | |||
+ | The innocence of youth. | ||
+ | The sordid truth. | ||
+ | Our visions turn sour. | ||
+ | All colours change to grey. | ||
+ | Goodbye my tender dreams. | ||
+ | Is there a better day? | ||
+ | |||
+ | Regain. | ||
+ | |||
+ | To live on in hearts, is never to die. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ==== These Colours Don't Run ==== | ||
+ | The factories still churning out | ||
+ | Of that there' | ||
+ | There' | ||
+ | They could couldn' | ||
+ | It's true, overdue, and plain to see, | ||
+ | The plight of those in misery | ||
+ | A dead necked vision, product of subsidence | ||
+ | Fucked up, and held in screaming silence | ||
+ | |||
+ | Another police force investigation | ||
+ | Blatant lies, false fucked suggestions | ||
+ | Is it all down to communications? | ||
+ | Or does the grass need cutting? | ||
+ | Has it change direction? | ||
+ | |||
+ | The chants that only serve to divide | ||
+ | The police link with the revenue, the royalties slide | ||
+ | Now as poor old joy gardener bites the dust | ||
+ | Why should I give a fucking fuck? | ||
+ | But the lefties scream outside the courts | ||
+ | Looking to lay the blame, it's no ones fault | ||
+ | They show sincerity, Oh! how much they care | ||
+ | Yeah! In their sick, twisted cause, in their affairs | ||
+ | |||
+ | A black coy has just missed his bus | ||
+ | A racist attack? Or blood thirsty lust? | ||
+ | Again the left jump on the back of the weeks attack | ||
+ | And force feed, socialist shit militant crap. | ||
+ | They blatantly try and whip up violence | ||
+ | Keep their arseholes shut? Keep it silent. | ||
+ | Another black person has died, that is true | ||
+ | But are you suprised? I ain't, because I already knew | ||
+ | |||
+ | By promoting political deaths, they could not give a fucking toss | ||
+ | |||
+ | The sexism reign in green mans world | ||
+ | The A.L.F. proves yet again that they won't be told | ||
+ | That what they do (or don't) is totally wrong | ||
+ | So fuck off you insane cunts, it still remains... our song! | ||
+ | |||
+ | Detention centres for the relentless | ||
+ | Approved schools for the fools | ||
+ | Abolish the jury, punish the fury | ||
+ | But it's our power that you fuel | ||
+ | So it is basically blatantly obvious | ||
+ | And in fact fucking common sense | ||
+ | That when people are forced to live in shit | ||
+ | Under your conditions, crime will undoubtedly spread | ||
+ | |||
+ | You may be watching every move we make | ||
+ | You even convince yourself that you're clever | ||
+ | But I'm looking right back into your eyes, | ||
+ | So don't you ever, never ever, | ||
+ | Think that I mignt trip or slip | ||
+ | Right down your stairs | ||
+ | Into your cells, where unaware, | ||
+ | You can beat and fuck me senseless, | ||
+ | While the world spins around relentless | ||
+ | |||
+ | You may have people on your side | ||
+ | That I consider the lowest form of life | ||
+ | But don't you think of what you call respect | ||
+ | Even enters into our minds aspect | ||
+ | For I'm sick of respect, how about our causes instead? | ||
+ | What made the maddened go to extreme lenghts | ||
+ | Who simply couldn' | ||
+ | Who knew they wouldn' | ||
+ | Being ground down fine, | ||
+ | By those who haven' | ||
+ | For they shall punish those who sin | ||
+ | Toss the peasants into the bin | ||
+ | Of those that won't beg for their pittance | ||
+ | And that still remains our fucking difference | ||
+ | Who will not beg to their Jesus, God | ||
+ | Christ I've had enough of that! | ||
+ | Christ I've had enough of this! | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Increase The Pressure ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Never mind the bullshit, here's the facts | ||
+ | |||
+ | The second album full of same old songs | ||
+ | Fighting back against a system which is cruel and wrong | ||
+ | Yet another battering ram against a wall of power | ||
+ | A blasphemous attack to blow the leader’s cover | ||
+ | It’s a message from those who won’t take no more | ||
+ | Of seeing the privileged profit from the poor | ||
+ | Of the scientist’s piss they call research | ||
+ | Of being told we’re scum and should be birched | ||
+ | |||
+ | Well bollocks to them all, keep smashing at the wall | ||
+ | Pile the pressure on and Government will fall | ||
+ | But it takes more than music and more than words | ||
+ | To recreate a nation that’s controlled by hoards | ||
+ | Of police, army and fuck knows what else | ||
+ | That they’ve got waiting for the backlash from the people who care | ||
+ | To question their control, their dividing lines | ||
+ | Power must be tested, it’s testing time | ||
+ | |||
+ | Power must be tested, we've heard that time and time again | ||
+ | But no matter how much pain and protest, nothing seems to change | ||
+ | The Government show forces and our movement cowers in fear | ||
+ | Some still strive for freedom, while others simply sneer | ||
+ | |||
+ | It’s the same old racket with the same old songs | ||
+ | Well it’s the same fucking system and it still stands strong | ||
+ | The battle continues so bollocks to them | ||
+ | Who mock our anarchy then bow their heads again | ||
+ | You try working for something that a system can’t make | ||
+ | Creating something that a law can’t take | ||
+ | Back as a loss of privilege for stepping out of line | ||
+ | Power ain't been tested, so now's the time to fuck them up again | ||
+ | Fuck them up again (x2) | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Law And Order ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Punks! -- The system maintains -- Law and order | ||
+ | |||
+ | No more law and order. Those words they say it all | ||
+ | Its just one human being denying another of self rule | ||
+ | The police ain't authority, for all they do is serve | ||
+ | The state they do their dirty work to make the people learn | ||
+ | They interrogate, | ||
+ | They sort out all the queers and keep the wogs locked in a vault | ||
+ | And they' | ||
+ | They all wear the same badge that says fuck you all | ||
+ | |||
+ | Oh yeah! They' | ||
+ | They’ve also got the right to lock up and not release | ||
+ | Any form of rebel, they’ll even work against their own | ||
+ | Because they bribe them, very well and they may also get a home | ||
+ | Protect their privilege no matter what the cost | ||
+ | Now you're the piggy in the middle and they couldn’t give a toss | ||
+ | They sit back and laugh, yes they laugh at you too | ||
+ | Cos they also wear a badge that says "we use you" | ||
+ | |||
+ | It’s just the same old story of a state going wrong | ||
+ | Where possessions matter and people don’t | ||
+ | Don’t be surprised that we've turned against you | ||
+ | Because if you side with them, it’s fuck you too | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ==== From Protest To Resistance ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | No! | ||
+ | No, there' | ||
+ | That anything’s going to change | ||
+ | It depends on you and you know | ||
+ | We can protest until death, they won’t listen | ||
+ | Don’t sit back and think it will happen | ||
+ | They won’t give up what they have robbed | ||
+ | Stand up and resist | ||
+ | |||
+ | But while the leaders have caught on, we see that they’ve prepared for civil war | ||
+ | |||
+ | While on our side we squabble about who does what and who sells more | ||
+ | There' | ||
+ | Forgetting the system holds superiority | ||
+ | |||
+ | First, we've got to come together, so fuck the differences | ||
+ | It doesn’t matter if its noise or music, to them we all talk piss | ||
+ | To them we’re the sick farce, now lets not prove them right | ||
+ | If we're to stand the slightest chance, we must unite and fight | ||
+ | We must never give up, make sure our message ain't forgotten | ||
+ | That’s if they won't fucking stop, then we’re gonna fucking stop them! | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Though Shit Mickey ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Mother Nature smiles and cracks a new days dawn | ||
+ | Most people on the earth are sleeping comfortably and warm | ||
+ | Out in the fields and pastures, it’s another new day too | ||
+ | One without the war and hatred that is known by me and you | ||
+ | A shriek disturbs the peacefulness; | ||
+ | The mother says with feeling as she looks out from the house | ||
+ | It’s breakfast time, the clock strikes nine, ham, bacon, one egg or two? | ||
+ | What a shame about that mouse, what’s for tea tonight, lamb stew? | ||
+ | |||
+ | Well, there’s things to do, so the family divides in separate ways | ||
+ | Father works to earn the keep, he’s a butcher and well paid | ||
+ | The daughters go to riding school, mother washes up the crap | ||
+ | One son plays with soldiers; the other aggravates the cat | ||
+ | Back out in the fields a different story’s taking place | ||
+ | Foxes cower with their cubs to escape the human race | ||
+ | Rabbits run for life, deer take cover in the trees | ||
+ | The mother sighs with disbelief, then prepares the meat | ||
+ | |||
+ | Liberate, liberate | ||
+ | Liberate, liberate -- Think what you’re doing -- Liberate, liberate | ||
+ | Liberate, liberate -- The systems set to ruin -- Liberate, liberate | ||
+ | Liberate, liberate -- The life, not the profit -- Liberate, liberate | ||
+ | Liberate, liberate-- We’ve got to fucking stop it | ||
+ | |||
+ | Because before too long there will nothing left alive | ||
+ | Not a creature on the land or sea, a bird in the sky | ||
+ | They’ll be shot, harpooned, eaten and hunted too much | ||
+ | Vivisected by the clever men who prove that there’s no such | ||
+ | Thing as a fair world with live and let live | ||
+ | The royal family go hunting what an example to give | ||
+ | To the people they lead and that don’t include me | ||
+ | I've seen enough pain and torture of those who can’t speak | ||
+ | So I'm gonna speak for them in an all out attack | ||
+ | And if someone tries to whip me, then I will fucking whip them back | ||
+ | Because I have had enough of this madness in those theatres of hell | ||
+ | Enough of them hounding the fox to the kill | ||
+ | Of baby seals being clubbed, their mothers cut up | ||
+ | They satisfy their greed, their wealth’s built on blood | ||
+ | Of their slaughterhouse haunting the back of the mind | ||
+ | The gas chamber of the farm life, the end of the line | ||
+ | |||
+ | It’s a shame about that mouse! | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Punk Inn'It ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Punk still means much more than fashion | ||
+ | A movement made that no one can change | ||
+ | It’s a form of rebellion; it comes from the street | ||
+ | And it’s made by idiots like me! See! | ||
+ | |||
+ | We’re all caught in a web of power | ||
+ | And we are all holding each other in place | ||
+ | Forced into position by one another | ||
+ | I see I'm ready to break free | ||
+ | |||
+ | But... I can’t move unless you fucking do | ||
+ | I can’t move unless you fucking do (x2) | ||
+ | I can’t move unless you don't do | ||
+ | You can’t move unless I choose to (x3) | ||
+ | How much longer are we gonna wait? | ||
+ | |||
+ | I never said it could | ||
+ | I said it would | ||
+ | It can | ||
+ | It will (x7) | ||
+ | It is... Happening | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== As Others See Us ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | The music press grins but did you think they would help us? | ||
+ | No, it’s not in their interest; freedom’s not what they want | ||
+ | The change in their life style would destroy the bank balance | ||
+ | Much rather they would shit and watch the world collapse | ||
+ | In their fairytale city, they poison the mind | ||
+ | With rock ‘n’ roll for entertainment | ||
+ | So, the nation won’t find out about | ||
+ | Corruption, control, the distribution of wealth | ||
+ | It’s a plan based on distraction, | ||
+ | They make millions profit now who’s on what side? | ||
+ | Do you see them lift a finger as the starving victims die? | ||
+ | Some people tried to change things, tried to clear out all the shit | ||
+ | Big bosses forced a clampdown, anarchy must not exist! | ||
+ | |||
+ | Fuck off if you don’t want to help, that’s the message loud and clear | ||
+ | From the con men you once labelled, you bastards just don’t care | ||
+ | Just who the fuck are you to talk? You even sell yourselves | ||
+ | O.K. you’ve got your own opinions, well now have ours as well | ||
+ | |||
+ | Shut your mouth, because you don’t understand the way things are | ||
+ | The way we live, the role we play is not a superstar | ||
+ | For you to use, build up, smash down as you see fit | ||
+ | You dozy jerks you write such shit | ||
+ | |||
+ | If we sound like a bad phone call then you’ve got a crossed line | ||
+ | If we tell you the same as yesterday, well, did you think we would change our | ||
+ | minds? | ||
+ | You say we look too violent, say our message is forgotten | ||
+ | Well, if you don’t like that tough, because that’s the only face I've got! | ||
+ | |||
+ | Shut your mouth, because you don’t understand the way things are | ||
+ | The way we live, the role we play is not a superstar | ||
+ | For you to use, build up, smash down as you see fit | ||
+ | You don’t know shit... you make me sick | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Cruise... ==== | ||
+ | Cruise missiles have arrived, despite our protest and anger | ||
+ | The fucked up fucking shits took no notice of our banners | ||
+ | They ignored the nation’s pleas of a chance to work for peace | ||
+ | They reinforced their laws and brought their servants to their knees | ||
+ | |||
+ | Maggie sits back in her province of power | ||
+ | The nation’s scared shitless in fear of a shower | ||
+ | Of the worst thing that would be possible | ||
+ | The destruction of the world, the murder of us all | ||
+ | God save the Queen, are you sure it ain't the banks? | ||
+ | It’s the profit of all nations that makes the leaders wank | ||
+ | From the Germans to the Russians and the Great British too | ||
+ | The people are the same, it’s the Government who... | ||
+ | |||
+ | ...Fuck, rape and destroy our world they treat as a toy | ||
+ | The truth they abuse and hide with war, threats, system and lies | ||
+ | Thirty million will die while the royals and Government hides | ||
+ | So, the nation’s wealth can survive but the rest of us just fry | ||
+ | |||
+ | The man Hesletine sits and gloats at his warheads | ||
+ | Thatcher observes, "Oh, there' | ||
+ | The missiles roar over, there' | ||
+ | But there' | ||
+ | Maggie sucks Andropov in her brothel of power | ||
+ | While Reagan gives speeches of bullshit to cover | ||
+ | The fact that its profit that brought the missile fear | ||
+ | Well ram them up your own arse, because we don’t want them here | ||
+ | |||
+ | What are we going to be doing now it’s 1984? (x8) | ||
