| Here's the lyrics to my fave songs by the clash :) |
| Washington Bullets Oh mama mama look there Your children are playing down that street again. Don't you know what happened down there? A youth of 14 got shot down there... The kokane guns of jamdown town The killing clowns, the blood money men are shooting those Washington Bullets again As every cell in chile will tell, The cry of the tortured men Remember Allende,and the days before, before the army came Please remember victor Jara in the santiago stadium es verdas-those Washington bullets again The bay of Pigs in 1962 Havana for the playboys in the Cuban sun, For Castro is a colour, is a redder than red those Washington bullets want Castro dead. For Castro is the colour... that will earn you a spray of lead For the very first time ever When they had a revolution in Nicaragua there was no interferance from America human rights from Amerika Well the people fought the leader, And up he flew.. with no washington bullet what could he do? 'N if you can find an Afgan rebel that the Moscow bullets missed, Ask him what he thinks of voting communist.. Ask the Dahli lama in the hills of Tibet, how many monks did the chinese get? In a war torn swamp stop any mercenary, 'n check the British bullets in his amoury.. Que? SANDINISTA! |
| White Riot White riot- I wanna riot White riot- A riot of my own White riot- I wanna riot White riot- A riot of my own Black people have a lot of problems But they dont mind throwing a brick White people go to school Where they teach you to be thick An' everybody's doing just what they wanna do Just what they are told to An' nobody wants To go to jail! All the power's in the hands Of the people rich enough to buy it While we walk the street Too chicken to even try it An' everyone's doing Just what they are told to Nobody wants To go to jail! Are you taking over Or are you taking orders? Are you going backwards Or are you going forwards? |

| Complete control They said release "remote control" But we didn't want it on the label They said, "fly to Amsterdam" The people laughed but the press went mad. Ooh ooh ooh someone's really smart Ooh ooh ooh complete control, that's a laugh! On the last tour my mates couldn't get in I'd open up the back door But they'd get run out again At every hotel we was met by the law Come for the party, come to make sure! Ooh ooh ooh have we done something wrong? Ooh ooh ooh complete control. Even over this song They said we'd be artistically free When we signed that bit of paper They meant let's make a lot of mon-ee An' worry about it later Ooh ooh ooh i'll never understand Ooh ooh ooh complete control Lemme see your other hand! All over the news spread fast They're dirty, they're filthy They ain't gonna last This is Joe public speaking I'm controlled in the body,controlled in the mind Total C-O-N control - that means you! |
