1. Here's Your Warning
Hey it's 1984, with a glimpse of what's in store,
It looks like things are up to us.
No talk, just action in the streets,
That's what it's gonna take, No calm youth in the U.S.A.
It's summertime, American riot!
I can't complain, unless I try it
The heat is here, a teenage warning
To those who fear, here's your warning
This could be the year that we could make some people think,
With smarter minds we'll hit the streets
United we must make our stand, divided we will fall
But it's up to us to take that step
(Chorus)
Complacent kids, that's all they want
But If they want trouble they'll get it
Amidst year's of youth unrest
And now someone is pissed right!!
(Chorus)
2. Definite Choice
Take your pick and make a stand,
With no regrets or change of plan
Keep your head, don't be afraid,
Be proud of the choice you made.
Support your scene, you must believe,
Never stop just move ahead.
Oh Oh Oh! Definite Choice!
Be positive, no ignorance,
To mindlessness, we must protest
Cause we're for real, we're gonna prove
That our movement's on the move,
**** big business, church and war
That's not what we're fighting for.
(Chorus)
3. Not Just Boy's Fun
Man you've got a problem, who made you fuckin' king
A macho pig with nothing in your head
No girls around you, their place is not at gigs.
Don't want 'em on the dance floor 'cos they're weak
A woman's place, the kitchen, on her back,
It's time to change that attitude and quick.
Showing us your phobias, you're scared to see 'em think,
You'd rather dress 'em up in pretty lace, all nice and colored
pink.
You feel so ******* threatened, when they stand out front,
A stupid, passive piece of meat is all you really want.
But it's: Not just boy's fun (x4)
There's girls who put out fanzines, and others put on shows,
Yet they're not allowed to get out on the hoer.
Some make the music, well that you can accept.
Hell, maybe then you'll get some tits and ass
You ******* moron, your brains have run amuck,
A girls only lot in life in not to ****!
(Chorus)
4. This Is The Angry, Pt. 2
So you're tired of hearing us moan and complain,
Just 'cos you don't feel it,
Don't mean there's no pain
Some are brought up and let down, Then run through the course,
While they're able to **** us and feel no remorse
Oh Oh Oh!
Well you turned on your own, kicked dirt in our faces
We're left with no money, no work, no paces,
Just think what you'd do, if you were in our place,
While reality's waiting, you're taking up space,
(Chorus)
Are you happy? Are you proud?
Then sing real loud
(Chorus)
5. Straight On
Yeah, you do drugs, you know I don't,
Yet it's a trend just 'cos i don't,
Leave me be, can't you see,
I hate the way it fuckin' smells,
I hate the way it makes me feel.
Thumbs down to all those drugs you need,
'cos I'll just stay high naturally,
Just more false starts, it tears apart,
Your heart, your head, your soul, your brain.
It helps the feeling, eases the pain.
6. You Lose
You're beatin' up on your friends,
'cos you're so insecure,
You wanna be the toughest,
But we all know for sure,
You thrash because you know
You're gonna start another fight,
But maybe when it's too late,
You'll finally see the light,
You're tough, you fight, you win, so what
You listen to the music,
It's the coolest thing to do,
But you don't ever listen
To what it says to you.
Your boots don't make you bigger,
Your pose is nothing new,
Someday it's gonna happen
When we watch you fuckin' lose.
(Chorus) (x4)
7. What If There's War In America
A street with bodies, filled with guts,
Child's world is such a mess.
One bomb could rip this place apart
Yet who's to blame, where'd it start.
America's! War!
Just one more war by '84, it's killin' me and killin' you.
These enemies want a little taste,
Of what's left of American waste
(Chorus)
Our government, they gave the world,
With none of our voices ever heard.
A silence first and then a scream,
So much for the Annericss Dream.
(Chorus)
8. The Crew
The older I become
I can't help thinking hard about
What's really gonna happen,
And what's in store for
Us and them is bullshit,
And if we're gonna make it work
We've gotta care together
And see this to the end, see it to the end
It'll take some time to fix it up,
But that is something we must do,
With solid hearts and clearer minds,
We'll raise our voice and blast right through
We'll stop the ones who **** it up
And show the world that they can't stop the crew.
The crew is me the crew is you, yeah we're the crew!
The threat of war ain't over, and yes I fear it's getting near,
With all this hate inside me, it all may just start
Here now will you listen, or would you rather just ignore,
You say we have no future,
Do we have a chance, do we have a chance?!
(Chorus)
9. Clenched Fists
You say your scared, we're not to blame
'Cos mindless violence ain't our claim
A new breed's here, we're gonna stay
And breakdown all your shallow ways
'Cos we are the new kids. We've got our heads
We'll keep on fighting, Til old ways are dead
Clenched fists, black eyes!
We're aiming for a different goal
Succeeding where the hippies failed
But one thing's sure and you can bet
We'll be more than a drugged out threat!
(Chorus)
10. Colourblind
I don't feel that prejudice
Can't see divided lines
To me we are all just the same
Our difference in our souls and minds
You tell me that the difference
Is red, brown, black and white
A world of such variety
To you becomes excuse for hate
We've gotta learn, have hope, unite
And care enough to end this fight
You're hating with no real insight,
And burning crosses in the night
A hundred years of barriers, yet still we can't see fit
To bring about world unity, and learn to deal with it
Now I'm not just complaining, and I won't preach to anyone
But we should think about it 'cos this war has not just begun
(Chorus)
11. Aim To Please
What do you mean when you say
We've changed our ways?
Say we're just too political
Or we don't have much to say
The ones who criticize our reasons
Always seem to disagree
No matter what we do
It's them we just can't seem to please
Forget the things we've said
We're only clones
Not cool enough to make it on our own
Judged by the elitist chosen few
Their labels aren't for me
Are they for you?
You say some years ago our songs were fine
And our debut E.P. was just divine
But now a shadow haunts us through and through
And songs we wrote before you never knew
(Chorus)
12. Boss
How come everything you say is right
How come everything I say is wrong
You never ever open your mind
You never seem to hear the things I say
'Cos you're the boss, have a say
Everything must go your way
But count me out, I'm not about to listen
You judge me from your upper point of view
Judge from what I say and what I do
Tell me that you understand, you care
But when I speak you're never ******* there
(Chorus)
