GBH - Diplomatic Immunity [Live '85]

I can speed in my car down the road.
I don't have to follow the highway code.
The laws which bind you don't bother me.
I've got diplomatic immunity.

I'm really free.
They can't touch me.
I've got sanctuary.
Diplomatic immunity.

I can walk down the street with a gun in my hand,
to protect myself from violent gangs.
Go into Harrods and steal some jewels,
store detectives look like fools.

I'm really free.
They can't touch me.
I've got sanctuary.
Diplomatic immunity.

I killed a girl once just for fun,
then waited for the police to come.
They couldn't do a thing,
I'm safe inside my wall of red tape.

I'm really free.
They can't touch me.
I've got sanctuary.
Diplomatic immunity.

Who is there to hear the call ?
And see the injustice of it all.
But who is there the hear the call ?
And see the injustice of it all.

Wally George's tv show was such a joke. OC Punk kids were always trying to be in his audience just to get on camera.

What was his show about? I don't think I've ever heard of it before, was it local to LA only?

Whoa haven't seen this in 21 years. This was originally broadcast on MTV as part of some punk rock special. That's why Colin says "you'd better be on your best behavior because the eyes of the world are upon us." This was filmed in LA at the Olympic auditorium on GBH's third tour of America. If you notice, MTV annoyingly turned down the guitar for the entire set so all you can hear are bass, vocals, drums.

Hey there, your right it was an MTV special called "Punks and Poseurs" which i've heard is like the 2nd and last time they ever cared about this scene :) Wow I had no idea that MTV turned down the guitars, thats pretty lame. Do you think they had access to the soundboard to turn it down? I thought it was just MTV showing up with cameras and filming.

This was a great show. I'd love to get the whole thing again. I devoured this when It 1st aired and I recorded it on VHS. I too lost my copy to an ol' Jackass friend.

@Heavymetalpower666 It would be a honor to get killed by the sound of their fuckin' music.
