Crass - You Pay

Crass - You Pay from The Feeding of The 5000

You Pay
You're paying for prisons.
You're paying for war.
You're paying for lobotomies.
You're paying for law.
You're paying for their order.
You're paying for their murder.
Paying for your ticket
To watch the farce.

Knowing you've made you're contribution
To the systems fucked solution,
To their political pollution.
No chance of revolution.
No chance of change.
You've got no range.

Don't just take it.
Don't take their shit.
Don't' play their game.
Don't take their blame.
USE YOUR OWN HEAD.
Your turn instead.

It's not apologise. It's not economise.
It's not make do. It's not pull through.
It's not take it. It's not make it.
It's not just you. It's not madmen.
It's not difficult. It's not behave.
It's not, oh well, just this once.
It's fucking impossible.
It's fucking unbearable.
It's fucking stupid.
FUCKING STUPID.

anarcho Alan has the best videos on you tube.Incredible stuff.I was but a wee lad when this music came out,but have now been inspired to revisit all over again.At the grand old age of 44,maybe I am to old to get a Crass tattoo.but,while no one is looking,who knows..

[TheMusicolophile]

Excellent videos by the way, AnarchoAlan. You've got a way.

@KukArslet i think Pete probably sang it because he wrote it. it doesnt matter to me. its the words that are important, not the singer.

the fact that there are several different lead vocalists on the album makes it more diverse and interesting.

[KukArslet]

Why did they let this fucker sing? I'm sorry but I have to be honest. This song is crap with that singing, I can do it better. I fucking will do it better.

Cus nevertheless, the lyrics are the best.

See what I did there?
