Worms of
the senses
I got a bone
to pick with capitalism and a few to break. Grab us by the throat and shake
the life away. Human life is not commodity, figures, statistics or make
believe. And yeah I like eating excrement and not getting paid for it.
Play the guilt, play the fear and play the anxiety x2. Seduced by the opportunity
and robbed of hope. Human suffering is not commodity, figures, statistics
or make believe. Marginalise away the joy and sell us boredom. And yeah
I like working doing nothing and not making anything. Blame the poor, blame
the uneducated and blame the sick x2.
Faculties
of the scull
I took the
first bus out of Coca-Cola city cause it made me feel nauseous and shitty.
I took the first bus out of Shell town cause they didn't want me hanging
around. YEAH. YEAH. I took the first bus. Let's take the first bus out
of here x8.
Liberation
frequency
It's coming
through the air for all of us to hear. Could it be the sounds of liberation
or just the image of detention? We want the airwaves back, we want the
airwaves back. We don't just want airtime we want all the time all of the
time. We want the airwaves back, we want the airwaves back. We want transmission
for the people by the people. What frequency are you getting? Is it noise
or sweet sweet music? On what frequency will liberation be? On what frequency
will liberation be? It's coming through the air for all of us to hear.
Could it be the sounds of liberation or just the image of detention? Control
my flower, business and news all ready to devour. Who's in charge and what
does he say? Is he playing the alternative or does it sound the same old
way? We want the airwaves back...
The deadly
rhythm
This union
that made us powerless is talking over our heads. Claiming prosperity in
a downward spiral plan. Stuck by the deadly rhythm of the production line.
This power that made us unionless is taking out of our hands. Cheapest
labour at our expensive cost, auctioned our lives away. We consume our
lives like we are thankful for what we are being forced into. Is it our
duty to die for governments and for gods? Is it our privilege to slave
for market and industry? Is it our right to follow laws set to scare and
to oppress? Is it our gift to stay in line and will it take away the blame?
We can no longer pay the price. We'll get organised. We will no longer
believe that working for you will set us free.
Summer holidays
vs. punk routine
I'm tired of
losing myself to some stupid childhood dream of what I could have been.
Money proves the point and I'm stuck between summer holidays and punk routine.
I shoot off a 100 things to remain more sorry than safe. You see, I only
get this chance once and I just can't let it be. And I'm still certain
that what motivates me is more rewarding than any piece of paper could
be. Well adjusted and corrupt, all those icons that stole our teenage lust.
A scenario of simplicity, a scenario of you and me x2. Rather be forgotten
than remembered for giving in. We're all tired of dying - So sick of not
trying. Scared that we might fail - We'll accomplish nothing. Not even
failure.
New noise
Can I scream?
It's here for us to admire if we can afford the beauty of it. If we can
afford the luxury of turning our heads. If we can adjust that $1000 smile
and behold the creation of man. Great words won't cover ugly actions and
good frames won't save bad paintings. We lack the motion to move to the
new beat. When the day is over the doors are locked on us. Cause money
buys the access and we can't pay the cost. And how can we expect anyone
to listen if we are using the same old voice? We need new noise , new art
for the real people. We lack the motion to move to the new beat. We dance
to all the wrong songs and we enjoy all the wrong moves. We're not leading.
Yeah. The new beat x10000.
The refused
party program
This is the
pulse - This is the sound. This is the beat of a new generation. This is
the movement - This is the rhythm. This is the noise of revolution. Yeah,
yeah, yeah, yeah. Refused party programme x3. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Protest
song '68
"To sing you
must first open your mouth. You must have a pair of lungs and a little
knowledge of music. It is not neccessary to have an accordion, or a guitar.
The essential thing is that I want to sing. Then this is a song, I'm singing."
-H.
Miller
I breathe
in and i create - rewoke the spirit '68. Fresh meaning to torn ideas -
let's bring life to old clichés. Punch a hole in tradition - yeah,
let's listen to the songs of discontent - the chords and the movement.
It could all be so simple. We would all stand baffled by the precision
and accuracy. Our jaws would hurt from dropping so hard, fast and unexpected.
It would be the perfect metaphor. It would be the perfect song we'd be
singing. I breathe out and i scream - rewoke Malatestas dream. Inspiration
from the past - focus to the future at last. Fixed dogmas can't substitute
- creative thought and action. We could be dangerous - art as a real threat.
And all it is is words. Words said a million times before. And all it is
is a song. A song sung a million times before. I breathe in and i create
- rewoke the spirit '68. I breathe out and i scream - rewoke Malatestas
dream.
Refused
are fuckin' dead
Beyond ability
and control we could be weekend lovers. Steal a sentence and make a catch
phrase parole for our revolution. Whispered all across the street about
the new cool call. Or screamed at your face like a scabs payroll. Faces
like angels, licking our fingertips. We don't have the patience to deal
with it. With battered bodies and puckered lips. We don't have the patience
to deal with it. A naive young secret for the new romantics. We express
ourselves in loud and fashionable ways. Yeah, get down, get down, yeah.
Can I get a witness? This I gotta see. Bring it in one more time for me
x2. We don't have the patience x4.
The shape
of punk to come
Hey baby you
never felt this good. Freedom through the stereo and you wish you could
take a bite, do a dance and get lost on a crusade. Jump on this soul train
with destination unknown. Hey baby never felt this free. A pair of new
shoes and a punk rock show to see. Give acclamation to these blue ribbon
babies. And check the calendar for the expiration date. We've all been
bitten - we've all been underground. We've all been beaten, battered, bruised,
told to get down. All dressed up with somewhere to go. I told you so. Adolescent
beats with a new thing to see. Smashed guitars just like you've seen on
TV. With burning speakers and flaming hair. We'll have a riot right here.
Tannhäuser/Derivé
So where do
we go from here? Just about anywhere. Disorientated but alive. Boredom
won't get me tonight. Let's bring this city to life - to light - tonight.
There is no destination but with a goal in mind we can all be realistic
and demand the impossible. Let's bring this city to life - to light - tonight.
The apollo
program was a hoax
Petrol bombs
and barricades - Anything to have our say. Consequence of no choice at
all - Empires rise and empires fall. It's time to flip some coins and it's
time to turn some tables. Cause if we have the vision I know that we are
able. Suck on my words for a while and choke in the truth of a million
dead. There is no prestige in your title, we are after your head. The destruction
of everything is the beginning of something new. Your new world order is
on fire and soon you'll be too. Sabotage will set us free. Throw a rock
into the machine.
