Punk played it's own important role in the fight against oppression
Aired awareness, new opinions, destroyed formerly accepted obsessions
Right out the window went stale traditions, false morals blinded hope
Respect for authority joined them; we made them a standing joke
We said, "gently caress off" smarmy popstar shits portraying images of a perfect world
Smearing a happy, clean face on reality, "it's the Queens Jubilee..." go to hell
Refusing to be puppets with the promise of a future, there is no future
So never mind the bollocks, because anarchy in the UK suits us
The public screamed in outcry, demanded immediate termination
The "scum of the earth" has raised its voice "How could they do this to our nation?"
The media tried to destroy us, stop the 'poor mans' rock invasion
The exposure only helped us reveal their hopeless situation

Gaining in momentum and numbers, we needed spokesmen
And that came from four people from the real world, just like the rest of us
We now had a voice, an alternative, our message getting louder
Nothing now could stop us rising up to meet their fast advancing challenge
But when the challenge came, they crumbled, as the four proved easy prey
For the states clever weapon money proved too tempting once again
Big bastard business cheque books opened up and then swallowed
Those leeches sucked hard slyly, and we couldn't believe the scenes that followed

Punk shops - " roll up! Buy your rebellion here!"
Badges, posters, bondage, books, colouring for your hair
Like sheep they flocked to buy punk rock, a part of the new threat!
The country laughed and screamed "punk flop"; it now seemed punk was dead!

They toured the lands to Disneyland
And ripped the state apart
Destroyed the music status quo
And created a new start
Their jet set pads, the sunny land
The songs of train robbings
It's just all more money in the bank
So come on boys and girls and sing
We stood and could only watch
As they took everything we stood for
And made a mockery of it
The four feeding finance straight back
Into the system they supposedly despised
What was once the black flag of anarchy
Was now the colours of the Union Jack


The movement, punk rock, who cares? We are just another band; they were just another band
Direct action is what achieves change, not miming to words,
how much longer must we sing the same old song?
Crawling from the mess that they'd left standing as our future
We realised we needed 'no one' to mouth off our message for us
Told big business to take a running jump, went back underground where we started
The tribe then split, as some stayed behind to mourn

"Radio, an insidious form, helps shape your thoughts making you conform.
Programming music easy listening, help you achieve that moronic grin.
Playing your regurgitated pap, selling products that are mostly crap.
Rarely hearing music you want to hear, it has an effect over all these years. Why don't you think for yourself.
Live in this self-made Hell.
Television, the idiot tube, helps to raise our children as fools.
Watch the news see what they want you to see, our awareness is limited by network VPs. Moronic sit-coms and one-sided news alter your feeling give you conformist views.
Why can't you get that garbage out of your head, you'd be better off to read a good book instead.
Why don't you think for yourself. Live in this self-made Hell. Newspapers, what do they say, Not much I think when they want schoolkids to pray.
Getting the facts from some daily news, you hate the system but adhere to its views.
Blaming the dead because they can't complain, shielding officials holding them above blame.
You'd better wake up and see what's plain to see, or end up a willing part of the machine. Why don't you think for yourself.
Live in this self-made Hell. Why don't you think for yourself. You must think for yourself."

That might be true if you listen to this billboard bullshit, but not if you listen to real music. Like Nine Inch Nails.

You guys might know of a band called Chumbawamba who did Tubthumping https://youtu.be/2H5uWRjFsGc which is essentially a smashmouth song.

But did you guys know that in the 80's they sung really legit anarcho punk? https://youtu.be/AyETTMDnviI it's the best example I can think of of a band dumbing themselves down and giving up on everything they used to stand for.

Chumbawamba is a running joke among people who know about this.

if you read between the lines its actually a song about an aging militant anarchist (fantasies about how the man can't keep him down) who drinks a lot (i.e pissing the night away)

I thought Chumbawumba's entire concept was that they're some kind of anarchist art collective that makes catchy but slightly subversive pop songs so they can sneer at people who don't get it.

My last girlfriend didn't like me thought she might be,
Most likely a dyke she just didn't excite me,
Lefty? Yeah but that was alright,
She was hotter than the sun but she just wasn't that bright,
My mistake she was more flaky than a leper colony,
I think a wooden clothespin would have been much better company,
rear end like a donkey acting funky gave her "L" now she's a flunky,
So my love for her died quicker than a batch of Sea Monkeys,
Early bird gets the worm spread your legs or spread the word,
So what if I'm not the smartest peanut in the turd,
I'm white which goes with everything but I can come in any color,
And I'm looking for the kind of girl that reminds me of my mother,
But it's hard to find a girl with a viper tattooed on her tushy,
And how many girls do you know that can play the harmonica with their pussies?
Like em' easy and hot and sweet like a Rice Krispie Treat, gee,
You know what I really want in a girl? Me,

I need to find a new vagina,
Any kind of new vagina,
It's hard to rhyme a word like vagina,
Calvin Klein? Kind of North Carolina,

Women are like dog, doo, hear me through don't interrupt,
It's just the older that they are the easier they get to pick-up,
I'd fill the generation gap clean the cobwebs from her rafters,
Old hens would rather put out than be put out to the pasture,
No age just ain't a gauge I like my girls like my cheese,
Preferably for me fat-free American singles only,
I want my next chick anorexic, the winner is the thinner,
Won't have to take her skinny rear end out to a fancy dinner,
Like Sizzler she got a beef we'll chew the fat,
If I forget to put the seat up I can put up with her crap,
Let her lash out and crack the whip but not in bed I don't play rough,
No I can't be tied down with a girl that wants me tied up,
Just independent like NOFX ,smart like Janeane Garafolo,
She'd use big words to make fun of me so that I would never know,
Bestow upon me all her wisdom of the Dewey Decimal System, gee,
You know what I really want in a girl? Me,

I need to find a new vagina,
Any kind of new vagina,
It's hard to rhyme a word like vagina,
Kevin Klein? Kind of South Carolina,
Vagina vagina vagina vagina,
Vagina vagina vagina vagina.
