Chumbawamba's war protest song Not In My Name DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN CHUMBAWAMBA OR THIS SONG, IT IS MERELY A FAN BASED VIDEO TO ACCOMPANY IT.

*Lyrics*
Like the sermon on the mountain
Says the dumber got dumb
Hellfire and brimstone
Swapped for oil and guns
When we're pushing up daisies
We all look the same
In the name of the Father, maybe
But not in my name

On this Jacob's Ladder
The only way up is down
One step from disaster
Two to make the higher ground
Jacob's Ladder

A million lifetimes
Left dying in the sun
In the streets down in Whitehall
Dog's picking at the bones
9/11 got branded
9/11 got sold
There'll be no-one left to water
All the seeds you sowed

On this Jacob's Ladder
The only way up is down
One step from disaster
Two to make the higher ground
Jacob's Ladder

On this Jacob's Ladder
The only way up is down
One step from disaster
Two to make the higher ground
On this Jacob's Ladder
The only way up is down
One step from disaster
Two to make the higher ground
Jacob's Ladder

  • The riff is from Anji by Davy Graham. Paul Simon made a cover of it.

  • @CBrusich Yes, the sample is from the Simon & Garfunkle song. Chumbawamba are known for their heavy sampling.. It's partly why this album is named 'Readymades'... because it's songs are mostly about found events that happened and the songs use alot of 'readymade' pieces from other songs and samples...

  • @CBrusich Youre a fucking idiot, its a Davy Graham song and credited as such.

  • You guys are fucking idiots, this is a simon and garfunkle song, and it was more than taking a sample of the song, its the whole fucking song.

  • holy to be itself

  • FREAKING GOOD STUFF! LONG LIVE CHUMBA! WATCH THE FILM JACOBS LADDER! ITS BASED ON A TRUE STORY OF THE ARMY GIVING TROOPS A FORM OF LSD TO MAKE THEM MORE AGGRESSIVE BUT IT ALL WENT WRONG!

  • i looooooooove Chumbawamba! <3333333 :D and i love this song :P
