What are we gonna do now? |
|
Taking off his turban, they said, is this man a jew? |
|
'cause they're working for the clampdown |
|
They put up a poster saying we earn more than you! |
|
When we're working for the clampdown |
|
We will teach our twisted speech |
|
To the young believers |
|
We will train our blue-eyed men |
|
To be young believers |
|
The judge said five to ten-but i say double that again |
|
I'm not working for the clampdown |
|
No man born with a living soul |
|
Can be working for the clampdown |
|
Kick over the wall 'cause government's to fall |
|
How can you refuse it? |
|
Let fury have the hour, anger can be power |
|
D'you know that you can use it? |
|
The voices in your head are calling |
|
Stop wasting your time, there's nothing coming |
|
Only a fool would think someone could save you |
|
The men at the factory are old and cunning |
|
You don't owe nothing, so boy get runnin' |
|
It's the best years of your life they want to steal |
|
You grow up and you calm down |
|
You're working for the clampdown |
|
You start wearing the blue and brown |
|
You're working for the clampdown |
|
So you got someone to boss around |
|
It makes you feel big now |
|
You drift until you brutalize |
|
You made your first kill now |
|
In these days of evil presidentes |
|
Working for the clampdown |
|
But lately one or two has fully paid their due |
|
For working for the clampdown |
|
But ha! gitalong! gitalong! |
|
And i've given away no secrets |
|
Who's barmy now? |
