Je score:
One, two, three, four! Heeey! Oooooh! The kingdom is ransacked The jewels all taken back And the chopper descends They're hidden in the back With a message on a half-baked tape With the spool going round Saying I'm back here in this place And I could cry And there's smoke you could click on And what are we gonna do now? One, two, three, four 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 running It's the best years of your life they want to steal But you grow up and you calm down And working for the clampdown You start wearing blue and brown And working for the clampdown So you got someone to boss around It makes you feel big now You drift until you brutalize You make 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 Ha! Gitalong! Gitalong! Working for the clampdown Ha! Gitalong! Gitalong! Working for the clampdown Yeah, I?m working hard in Harrisburg Working hard in Petersburg Working for the clampdown Working for the clampdown Ha! Gitalong! Gitalong Begging to be melted down Gitalong, gitalong Work Work Work And I give away no secrets ? ha! Work Work More work More work Work Work Work Work Who's barmy now?
