Maybe you think it's the new new wave

Well all it is is just another rave

Maybe it looks like the writing's on the wall

But you've seen it before, it's another death pall

So somebody's coming with the answer to the shit

Well it's just bad rock and roll chivvied up a bit

Someone's looking after it, there's time for a laugh

But you're leading yourself up another garden path

A million people are sitting out of work

I never wanted in, so I'm treated as a shirk

Who's the fool in the Irish joke

When the say you've got is your stupid vote

It's all very comfy while they keep the war vocal

But the bombs in Belfast are coming down your local

I wanna know how much you can take

Cos you've taken it all and that's just great

Go and see a band and it's another fucking bore

Another bunch of jerks are shitting on the poor

Or you might just get the adrenalin rush

Or the jock rot heavy metal leg iron gush

Ave fucking maria is what I say

She's still going strong and it won't go away

You can run religion on a football chant

Or the other way around if that's what you want

You can get anyone crawling through shit

Skivvying their lives away, slaving in the pit

All you need is to have the right key

Comfort and justice and liberty

Hi mum, hi dad, family life

Til your heart blows up from those shitty lies

Have some fun while you're young, son

Fun while you're young, fun, fun, fun

It's gonna go on etc
