Intro Am A Bm E
what are we gonna do now?
taking off his turban they say is this man a Jew
Coz their working for the clampdown
they put a poster saying "We earn more than you"
When were working for the clampdown
we will teach our twisted speech
to the young believers
we will train our blue eyed men
to be young believers
verse2
The judge said five to ten but I said double it again
Im Not working for the Clampdown
No man born with a living soul
can be working for the clampdown
Kick over the wall 'cause governments gonna fall
How can we refuse it?
Let fury have the hour ,anger can be power
Did you know that you can use it
the voices in your head are calling
stop wasting your time theres nothing comming
only a fool can think someone can save you
the men in the factry are old and cunning
you don't own nothing boy get runnin'
E E G E E!
its the best years of your life they want to steal
verse3
But you grow up and you clam down,
Working for the clampdown
You start wearing Blue and Brown and
working for the clampdown
So you got someone to boss around
make you feel big now
You drift until you brutilize you
made your first kill now
A D G A muted
In these days of evil presidentes
working for the clampdown
But lately one or two has fully paid thier due
working for the clampdown
Ha! Gitalong Gitalong
