Tom Robinson Band - Days Of Rage lyrics

rate me

Seeing is believing a feeling

And something needs seeing to fast

I've had seventeen years of nowhere

Now they're trying to put me out to grass

Well I've always been a bit of a loner

And never had a life of my own

Coming of age I'm feeling the rage

That I never had the bottle to show

Every year of bitter submission

Been plotting my bitter revenge

The endless humiliations -

Gonna tear their eyes to pieces

Same way you treated the Peaches

Breaking their hearts and their bones

Now you gonna face the hatred

Of the dog you wouldn't have in your home

Now I'm coming out in the open

I ain't about to step on the rail

Footsteps follow on the tube train

But God help the man on my tail

Every one of you can take it or leave it

But you'd better get out of my way

I'm a jackal on the ultimate rampage

And a killer at the end of the day

Watch out wild women doctors

Witch hunt's out with the pack

Even if you're high and mighty...

You gonna feel that steely backstab

This time I mean to get even

It's the last time I mean to be hurt

They'll never get to figure what hit them

Unless they get a gun to me first
