the greatest working class rip off


cr-ss – the greatest working cl-ss rip off

chorus: ain’t it just a rip off, oi, oi, oi/ ain’t it just a rip off, oi, oi, oi/ ain’t it just a rip off, oi, oi, oi/ ain’t it just a rip off, oi, oi, oi/ what a f-cking rip off, oi, oi, oi.

another threatening glance, another macho stance/ another aggressive fist, another -rs-hole p-ssed/ another vicious threat, a stream of blood stained sweat/ another bottle waved in the air, another battle with tension and fear.

chorus

tell me, why do you glorify violence? ain’t there nothing better to give?/ why f-ck up the only chance to be yourself and really live?/ you tell me you’re a working cl-ss loser, well what the f-ck 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, well, we’ve seen it all before/ 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 sh-t on you/ but what’s the point of sh-tting on yourself, what’s that gonna do?/ working cl-ss hero beats up middle cl-ss twit/ media labels, system’s sh-t/ 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 cl-ss rip off, oi, oi, oi/ just another f-cking rip off, a f-cking media ploy/ it’s the greatest working cl-ss rip off, oi, oi, oi/ain’t it just a rip off, ain’t it just a rip off, ain’t it just a rip off, oi.

punk attacked the barriers of colour, cl-ss and creed/ but look at how it is right now, do you really think you’re freed?/ punk once stood for freedom, not violence, greed and hate/ punk’s got nothing to do with what you’re trying to create/ anarchy, violence, chaos?/ you mindless f-cking jerks/ can’t you see you’re talking about the way the system works?/ throughout our bl–dy history force has been the game/ the message that you offer is just the f-cking same/ you’re puppets to the system with your mindless violent stance/ that’s right f-ckers, sneer at us ‘cos we say “give peace a chance”/ punk is dead you w-nkers, ‘cos you killed it through and through/ in your violent world of chaos, what you gonna do?/ is top of the pops the way in which you show how much you care?/ will you take off now to the usa to spread your message there?/ well mouth and trousers, sonny boy, never changed a thing/ the only thing that’ll ever change will be the song you sing/ ‘cos when you’ve bought your rolls royce car and luxury penthouse flat/ you’ll be looking down your nose and saying “punk, dear chap, what’s that?”/ you’ll be the working cl-ss hero with your middle cl-ss dream/ and the world will be the same as the world has always been/ punk’s the people’s music so you can stuff ideas of cl-ss/ that’s just the way the system keeps you sitting on your -rs-/ cl-ss, cl-ss, cl-ss, that’s all you f-cking hear/ middle cl-ss, working cl-ss, i don’t’ f-cking care.

it’s the greatest working cl-ss rip off, oi, oi, oi/ what a f-cking rip off, oi, oi, oi/ it’s the greatest human sell out, oi, oi, oi/ ain’t it just a rip off oi, oi, oi

punk’s the people’s music and i don’t care where they’re from/ black or white, punk or skin, there ain’t no right or wrong/ we’re all just human beings, some of us rotten, some of us good/ you can stuff your false divisions ‘cos together i know we could/ beat the system, beat its rule/ ain’t got no cl-ss, i ain’t a fool/ beat the system, beat its law/ ain’t got no religion ‘cos i know there’s more/ beat the system, beat its game/ ain’t got no colour, we’re all the same/ people, people, not colour, cl-ss or creed/ don’t destroy the people, destroy their power and their greed.
