One - Two - Three - Four
Fuck the politically minded, here's something I want to say,
About the state of nation, the way it treats us today.
At school they give you shit, drop you in the pit,
You try and try and try to get out, but you can't because they've fucked you about.
Then you're a prime example of how they must not be,
This is just a sample of what they've done to you and me.
Do they owe us a living?
Of course they do, of course they do.
Owe us a living?
Of course they do, of course they do.
Owe us a living?
OF COURSE THEY FUCKING DO.
Don't want me anymore, cos I threw it on the floor.
They used to call me sweet thing, I'm nobody's plaything,
And now that I am different, they'd love to bust my head,
They'd love to see me cop-out, they'd love to see me dead.
Do they owe us a living?
Of course they do, of course they do.
Owe us a living?
Of course they do, of course they do.
Owe us a living?
OF COURSE THEY FUCKING DO.
The living that is owed to me I'm never going to get,
They've buggered this old world up, up to their necks in dept.
They'd give you a lobotomy for something you aint done,
They'll make you an epitomy of everything that's wrong.
Do they owe us a living?
Of course they do, of course they do.
Owe us a living?
Of course they do, of course they do.
Owe us a living?
OF COURSE THEY FUCKING DO.
Don't take any notice of what the public think,
They're so hyped up with T.V., they just don't want to think.
They'll use you as a target for demands and for advice,
When you don't want to hear it they'll say you're full of vice.
Do they owe us a living?
Of course they do, of course they do.
Owe us a living?
Of course they do, of course they do.
Owe us a living?
OF COURSE THEY FUCKING DO.

Crass è stata una band punk inglese formatasi nel 1977. Considerati pionieri dell'anarcho-punk, hanno promosso l'anarchismo come ideologia politica, stile di vita e movimento di resistenza. La loro musica, spesso caratterizzata da sonorità sperimentali e testi politici incisivi, ha contribuito a diffondere la cultura DIY (Do It Yourself) all'interno del movimento punk. Crass si è impegnata in diverse cause sociali, come i diritti degli animali, l'ambientalismo, il femminismo, l'antirazzismo e la lotta contro la guerra. La band ha prodotto una vasta quantità di materiale musicale, tra cui album, EP e singoli, oltre a film e opere grafiche. Alcuni dei loro brani più rappresentativi includono 'Enola Gay', 'Banned Area' e 'How Does It Feel To Be?', che riflettono le tematiche sociali e politiche affrontate dalla band.
