The Clash - Working For The Clampdown lyrics
Your rating:
Taking off his turban, they said is this man a Jew? 'COS 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 governments to fall How can you refuse it? Let fury have the hour, anger can be power D'you know how 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 running 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 brutalise 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?"
