BURNT CROSS LYRICS

"Mob Violence"

Originally by The Apostles

I've come up from the slime and the factory grime
Where all my friends' dads are serving their time
And the working class women's faces don't shine
When they're scrapping a living on the poverty line
And their kids don't read Janet and John
Instead their learning how to make a petrol bomb
The communist party wail and whine
But I've got no time for that sickening slime
The national fascists call their creed
But I've got no need for that bullshit breed
The pacifists say "reject and refuse"
Ha, I've got no use for that brain abuse

Mob violence, mob violence
Fists and faces meet as we take to the street
Mob violence, mob violence
Because we get our kicks throwing bottles and bricks
Mob violence, mob violence
Class anger explodes as we take to the roads

No white collared johns gonna lead me on
He won't talk so big when his Bentley's gone
No politician will stop my mission
He won't travel far when his legs are missing
No Eton blue collars gonna screw up my rota
Especially when his heads underneath my motor
All your pacifist preaching pisses me off
Whilst peace, love and dope just makes me cough
See. The only thing I know that makes me feel high
Is a half brick landing in a coppers eye
The only thing I know that makes me feel nice
Is the sight and sound of an incendiary device

Mob violence, mob violence
Fists and faces meet as we take to the street
Mob violence, mob violence
Because we get our kicks throwing bottles and bricks
Mob violence, mob violence
Class anger explodes as we take to the roads
