I see you're ready for the revolution
Only 18 and you've got the solution
You've got my respect, you walk the walk
You've got no time for cheap talk
What will you do if you get caught?
Just a thought
You've got your reasons, they're well-thought-out
Like your target and your escape route
So now the hour's come for you to head off
Your molotovs - they're SO punk rock!
What will you do if you get caught?
Just a thought
Too bad you'll never let it slide
Instead you take it out on passersby
Well, thanks for the invite "bro" but haven't you heard?
COINTELPRO
Yeah, COINTELPRO
Nothing ever is good enough
Not ever, no how, not even when you're rich as them
What will you do if you get caught?
Just a thought...

Xanadu (Now We Are Here)
03:39
|

Once was a crackhouse run by broken men
really was a squalid scene
In came the boys, so grateful for the chance
to realize a common dream
Do you believe this moment is the only one
and we'll never disappear?
Xanadu - now we are here

Privilege on Parade
02:15

They parade the wealth that was born from luck
Everyone else always seem to be getting
Search that face, you'll find no compassion
They wear their heartlessness like high fashion
Worked so hard since you were a kid
That's why you feel so sick
Privilege on parade...yeah, they've got it made
Privilege on parade...get back to work you slave
Privilege on parade
Can't you see the divide?
It's deep and wide
Just like the debt you'll be in if you buy the lie
Don't you feel betrayed?
They made the rules, if you play by them you lose
Worked so hard since you were a kid
That's why you feel so sick
Privilege on parade...
The revolution is a fact,
but what they lost they've stolen back
La di da di da
La di da dah da dah da dah

Lucietta and Merle

East on Marin, all the way up the hill
You will find a place to stay
You'll be surprised, there's rebels there still
To lend a hand and guide the way
So let your worrying end, it's time to make new friends
Lucietta & Merle, all the way down the line
Lucietta & Merle, U 2 will be fine
Forging a path where there once was none
They're strong and yet they can still laugh
'Cause they know how to live and how to have fun
Son, you ought to take a photograph
Lu can be bossy but you know her heart is true
Lucietta & Merle, all the way down the line
Lucietta & Merle, U 2 will be fine
No need for pearls, nor fancy dress
You'd best not mistake them for that kind
'Cause through all their trials they know that unless
You know yourself you lose your mind

She Was A Mod
03:25

I knew her when she was a mod
I felt like a grungy slob, but I knew her when she was mod
We hung out at the record store
"Have you found what you're looking for?"
"Oh, no."
We then went back to her place
We stopped for lunch along the way
We then went to her place
She took me to her bedroom
We listened to 'My Favorite Things'
She told me that she likes to sing
I thought I saw her yesterday
but it's been so long I cannot say
I thought I saw her yesterday
I hear she's now a DJ
I hear she's deep into Brazil, but I knew her when she was a mod

From the mouths of all the freaks
and the squares out on the street
It's overheard and underground
just try to ignore the sound

It's All Bad
02:47
|
|||
|
No cash, no car, no love, no hope!
Around your old friends - you feel like a joke
Some folks - they smile
Even though you know they're sad
The truth that overwhelms them?
It's all bad
Needles in the park, shit on the sidewalk
Cheaters ever prosper
and your heart has sunken like a rock
Your spring is gone, and it won't be coming back!
The ignorant and greedy?
They're on the attack
Well, it's bad, bad, it's all bad
Don't get mad, don't grind your teeth
When you find the lie beneath the truth:
It's all bad!
Look out! That light at the end of the tunnel?
It's a train and you're about to get pummeled
Flat as a pancake
But after all, would that be so bad?
Bad, bad it's all bad
Don't get mad, don't grind your teeth
When you find the lie beneath the truth:
It's all bad
It's true - nobody, NOBODY wants you
when you're down & out
Maybe not even sweet mom & dad!

She heard about it from a friend
who told her about it last week
They planned to take the subway
then she kissed him on the cheek
He saw a flyer at the club
the artwork really caught his eye
Oh wow, me oh my!
Fiesta of the maladjusted, the maladjusted
gettin' down with the maladjusted
Now, if I was turned off
bored sick by the so-called in
I'd take up with the crowd
they're maladjusted & proud
Her ponytail to the side
she did not want to go alone
I'll go if you go too
Fiesta of the maladjusted, the maladjusted
gettin' down with the maladjusted
They all came as they were
they had so much fun
They all had strong desire for
a time & place where they could be
You'll find me at the
Fiesta of the maladjusted, etc..
