it's the greatest working class rip-off
Singer:crass
another threatening glance
a stream of blood stained sweat
another bottle waved in the air
another battle with tension and fear. ain't it just a rip off
why do you glorify violence? ain't there nothing better to give?
why fuck up the only chance to be yourself and really live?
you tell me you're a working class loser
well what the fuck does that mean?
is the weekly fight at the boozer gonna be the only action you've seen?
are you gonna be one of the big boys
muscles all akimbo as they boot down another door. will you see yourself as the hero as you boot in another head
when you're just a pathetic victim of the media you've been fed. you're lost in your own self pity
you've bought the system's lie
they box us up and sit pretty as we struggle with the knots they tie. okay
so you're right about one thing
no-one's got the right to shit on you
but what's the point of shitting on yourself
working class hero beats up middle class twit
system's shit. when it looks like the people could score a win
the system makes sure that the boot goes in. yeah it's the greatest working class rip off
just another fucking rip off
it's the greatest working class rip off
punk attacked the barriers of colour
but look at how it is right now
do you really think you're freed?
punk once stood for freedom
punk's got nothing to do with what you're trying to create. anarchy
chaos? you mindless fucking jerks!
can't you see you're talking about the way the system works?
throughout our bloody history force has been the game
the message that you offer is just the fucking same. you're puppets to the system with your mindless violent stance
sneer at us cos we say give peace a chance"
