You Can Be Who?
4
Chorus: Don't want a life of lies and pretence
5
Don't want to play at attack and defense
6
Just want my own life, I want to be free
7
So you can be you, and I can be me
8
Respectable businessman smart and secure
9
Eat the fat of the land that they robbed from the poor
10
The butcher is smiling as he brings down the knife
11
As he cuts up the meat, he thinks of the wife
12
As eminent psychiatrists suffer paranoid fits
13
The ones they call mad have to pick up the bits
14
The preachers speaks calmly, says it's love that we lack
15
While his imaginary dagger is held at our back
16
Chorus
17
In bed you're the master or mistress, who cares?
18
Abusing each other as your work off your fears
19
Go climb a mountain, go fuck a scout
20
Avoidance of self is what it's about
21
Pretence and illusion to avoid who you are
22
Don't work on yourself, just polish the car
23
Switch on the telly afraid you might find
24
That as well as a body you've also a mind
25
Cheap glossy surface to cover the lie
26
Cheap easy answers to the what, where and why
27
Media drivel, yet you still watch the screen
28
Life ain't for real, it's a magazine
29
Conned from the start but hang onto the lies
30
A slave to the cathode ray paradise
31
You don't want the world, you just want the pics
32
Media junkies, you'd die for a fix
33
Chorus
34
So you say you'll regret it, well that's maybe a start
35
But it's so fucking easy to act out a part
36
Say you'll reject it, but still toe the line
37
Conning yourself that you're doing just fine
38
Anarchy, freedom, more games to play?
39
Fight war, not wars? Well it's something to say
40
Slogans and badges worn without thought
41
Instant identities so cheaply bought
42
Well freedom ain't product, it just isn't fun
43
You're looking for peace your work's just begun
44
Fighting oppression, aggression and hate
45
Fighting warmongers before it's too late
46
We've got to fight back to show that we care
47
For so many years we've been silenced by fear
48
Our lives have been ruined by liars and fools
49
The powerful and greedy who bind us with rules
50
Politicians and preachers who bind us with laws
51
Stolen our peace and given us wars
52
They've used us as means to their own violent ends
53
Turned us against each other, made foes out of friends
54
They've distorted, perverted, polluted our lives
55
They've brainwashed the world with their sordid beliefs
56
They seek to possess, control and corrupt
57
If it's freedom we're after, they've got to be stopped
