The Levellers - Warning lyrics

rate me

(I don't have to tell you things are bad,

everyone knows it; it's a depression.

Crowds are running wild in the streets,

but nobody anywhere seems to know

what to do with them

-- now listen ...

You know the air is unfit to breath

, our food is unfit to eat.

We know things are bad,

worse than bad; T

hey're crazy,

it's like everything everywhere

is going crazy

so we don't go out anymore.

We sit in the house and slowly

the world we're living in is getting smaller

and all we say is

"Please ... at least leave us alone in our living room."

All I know is

that first we've got to get mad ...

You've got to say

"I'm a human being GOD DAMN IT!

-- my life has value!"

I want you to get up right now

I want you to get up now

I want all of you to get up out of your chairs

I want you to get up right now

I want you to get up right now

I want you to get up now

I want all of you to get up out of your chair

s -- I want you to get up right now

and go to the window,

open it and stick your head out and yell ...

"I'M AS MAD AS HELL AND I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE THIS ANY MORE!" )

Summer UK '93

Controlled substances in hand

Flash photos on location

Final end solution

Road block

Cash from chaos received

This sun burns more than you believe

The smell of C.S. gas

Confusion of the mass

Cold sweat

Warning

Out of control

You know we know

Turning your face away

But where to go

Shake it down by any means

You know you've seen this all before

Broken words from loud hailers

Hands raised in the air

And no tune

Armed surveillance last dance

Sparks fly at the first glance

Helpless face within the flame

First purge of the new game

Crass press
