Take Me On

The past is best left and forgotten
The king of rock is Johnny Rotten
Twinkle Twinkle little brat
Who do you think you're looking at?
Terry's dead and gone away
Go and join him Twinkle eh!

Take me on you bleeders
Can't find much worse than this
Take me on you bleeders
Can't find much worse than this

Soul boys come and soul boys go
Where're bastards ? I don't know
When I'm trendy, it's tit for tat
When I'm ninety, I'll go for soul
Hit a hundred, it's rock 'n' roll

Take me on you bleeders
Can't find much worse than this
Take me on you bleeders
Can't find much worse than this

Oh Kristy

Oh Kristy,
I sometimes wish you never were born at all

Oh Kristy darling
As the nights grow long
I'll be always looking out
Just in case you come along
Knock on the door
And I'll come right down
I want to see your face
I just want you around

How I loved you
How I cried
How I looked for a reason
When he killed you
When you died

Your life
Such a beautiful life
And a beautiful life
Is blown away now

Your life
Such a beautiful life
And a beautiful life
Is thrown away now

Oh Kristy,
I sometimes wish you never were born at all

Lies

Who started the lie that has gone on forever?
Two thousand years of lies have just gone by
God is in his heaven
Devil in his hell
Good and evil come together to weave their wicked spell

Who will next ask God to bless their bullets?
Who will start another mad crusade?
Who will live and who will die?
Who is laughing as we cry?
On and on we have to tell the lie.

Cos these lies, go on, and on, and on.....

Mary, Mary, are you still a virgin?
Or has the lord God knocked you up again?
He's a dirty old sod that mister God
I guess he never spares the rod
Another bastard left to die in pain

And these lies, go on, and on, and on.....

Get Off My Back!

I sleep all day
My prospects of a job have all just gone away
Not that I really want to have one anyway
I'd rather have to draw the dole

The money's tight
I haven't got a single thing to wear tonight
The people on the TV seem to look so right
They tell me how to live my life

Get Off My Back! Get Off My Back!Get Off My Back!
That's what I say to you who criticise my every move
Get Off My Back! Get Off My Back!Get Off My Back!
There is no hope for me today

Storybooks
The drivel they have fed us all is overcooked
Now we don't even have to take a second look
It seems we've seen it all before

All the same
On and on and on we play this silly game
I look around for someone else that I can blame
I did what I could do, did you?
