WRITE ME OFF
01:50

No I don't know why people take time to dress up just to go to the show
With their fancy clothes sometimes I feel like the music doesn't matter no more
If the clothes on your back write you off then that's wack, but the truth and the facts can be changed if you act on your morals and thoughts, if your mind cant be bought
Dont write me off without a second thought
I'm so fuckin bored when I walk through the door I get eyed or ignored but it don't matter no more cuz the scene died when you associated punk with the clothes in your drawer
Look at you, trying to act tough, judging me before you know whats up
Remember why we're here, it's so that shit would stop
Give it up stop acting like a cop
Whats that?
I'm not hardcore enough?
You think someone's a hipster so you beat them up
Thats fucked
I'm not hardcore enough
You think someone's a hipster so you beat them up
I'm so fuckin bored when I walk through the door I get eyed or ignored but it don't matter no more cuz the scene died when you associated punk with the clothes in your drawer
Whats that?
I'm not hardcore enough?
You think someone's a hipster so you beat them up
Thats fucked
I'm not hardcore enough
You think someone's a hipster so you beat them up

GIVE A FUCK

Aboriginal women go missing, white men don't give a fuck
It feels like no one out there is listening, white men just drive their stupid trucks
To hell with that mentality, bash your skull into reality
Give a fuck
Feminism is not a thing of the past, it's coming on strong so watch your male ass
To hell with that mentality, bash your skull into reality
Give a fuck
We are not a minority, but we need your solidarity
The struggle against authority, well it should mean so much more to me
Women are not a special interest group
Fuck!
Give a fuck

TOWER OF BABEL
01:24
|
|||
|
Getting signed to a label, making records in a cage
You got it made
Build it, tear it down
Blow this town or stick around
Or trade it all for a pocket full of change and a busker's wage
Would you rather?
You got a job at a bank, and a house and a kid and man named Frank but would you rather
Lose it all, trade a bag of gold for the open road
Would you rather?
Build it, tear it down
Blow this town or stick around
Don't be afraid to lose it all
Would you rather?
Don't be afraid to lose it all let the Tower of Babel fall
Build it, tear it down
Blow this town or stick around (x2)
Don't be afraid to lose it all let the Tower of Babel fall

NO PEACE

It took [ONE] time seein a cop beat a guy to radicalize a single brick flew through the air to start the chant 'lets stand and fight'
[TWO] layers of glass to smash that protects the Banque Nationale, grab the teller by the tie screamin GUERRE AU CAPITALE
[THREE] commin in with the masses, got masks for the gasses, brought bottles not plastic, tryin' to abolish all classes, we fightin them fascists
[FOUR] - swarm! fuck the norm, lootin them shops and the liquer stores, rippin up pavement to fight this war when there's pigs in the streets no peace no more
Smash the windows - follow along
Put the trash in the street where it belongs
We do our voting with sticks and stones,
Fire hydrants, and big orange cones
and call our friends on wire-tapped phones

PART II

[pre-chorus]
How history's repeating - how we knew we'd see you again
[chorus]
As the ancien regime crashes down it's up to us to decide what follows in its tracks
[verse]
Like in Spain, 1936 the left will join up with the Hellenic anarchists,
and through guerilla warfare in the street we'll extinguish the threat of the fascists
Golden Dawn is growing fast their offices will soon be ash what started at home and then abroad in days past
history will not repeat the work of comrades we'll complete.
like it or not the die is cas

THE PROMISE
01:46
|

|
They always told her that if she went to college, that she could make a change
Then she found it to be a myth just like getting ahead on minimum wage
Students don’t give a fuck tryin to make the grade
Profs scared to death tryin to keep getting paid
Corrupt officials, everyone knows, school is about that capital flow
[Chorus]
“Everybody’s got a chance just follow our lead”
Fuck your carbon copy of the American dream
“Pick a party you like and vote them in”
Elections make scapegoats, doesn’t matter who wins
“Just calm down and act more rational”
That’s what they say to exclude the radicals
“But you’re all protected by the constitution”
All our friends behind bars proves that this is an illusion
He always thought the left wing party, would really shake things up
But when they had a little success they left their ideals in the dust
Moderating their position, reaching for the middle
Scheming for jobs, power and influence
Democracy keeping a few satisfied, designed to keep the liberal promise alive
Don't let them make you believe in the liberal promise

LE GOÛT D'UNE MATRAQUE
01:26

Sa sert a rien de rester assis a terre quand les austi'd flics ont toujours le feu vert, y font ce qu'ils veulent et y ont plain d'practique alors vos fucking geules avec on reste pacifique. C'est vraiment dommage ils avancent 'clac clac clac' et la les pacifists comprennent le gout d'une matraque - des fois sa prend plus que des mots pour apprendre pourquoi hair le drapeau
Il faut que le jour arrive ou il aurons peur de nous, nous allons prendre la rue avec un seul coup. unis, munis, pres pour quoi que se sois, on se revoit aux barricades, continuons le combat! [x2]
La bourgeoisie connais qu'une language, c'est greve, blockage pi sabotage...

BLACK FLAGS

Head to toe in black clothes, black shirt on my face,
Side by side were gonna make this our space
If you’re marchin with us, don’t be scared of me,
The best tactic is solidarity
They’ll teach us fake histories and make us forget
The real means of change and im willing to bet
Until we unite that’s all you’re gonna get
There aint no enemies on the left
[chorus]
no enemies to the left of me, they’re waving BLACK FLAGS
no enemies to the left of me, all scabs watch out class war no doubt
Talk about sit-ins, MLK and Ghandi, what about huey, X, and viet-cong see?
No petition has ever been heard or considered a real beef
Until there’s someone out there willing to show some fucking teeth
Lets show em were serious and in this together,
Respect each’s tactics discuss but never
Despise the allies that we made as we bled
When were all in the struggle for the rights we never had

GARBAGE

I am the garbage in the dive bar
I am the garbage on TV
I am the garbage written on your wall
I am the garbage you don't see
I am the garbage in your bedroom
I am the garbage in your dreams
I am all the garbage in the whole fucking world
But you are the garbage inside me

"L'Etat Quebecois va tous nous liberer"
Laisse moi rire ça va etre pire on va toujours etre cibler
Le Parti Quebecois dans le poches du patronat
Y vont aussi nous fourrer lorseque leur chance est la
J'ai aucune confiance, yo sa pas d'bon sens
avec l'etat les bourgeois aurions toujours l'influence
Les choses vont mal
et j'ai envie d'crier
ceux qui veulent changement
sont toujours menacer
c'a pas d'allure
les gens manifestent fort
il y a des coches partout
mais la justice nulle part
