White Punks on Hope

They said that we were trash
Well the name is Crass, not Clash
They can stuff their punk credentials
Cause it’s them that take the cash
They won’t change nothing with their fashionable talk
All their RAR badges and their protest walk
Thousands of white men standing in a park
Objecting to racism’s like a candle in the dark
Black man’s got his problems and his way to deal with it
So don’t fool yourself you’re helping with your white liberal shit
If you care to take a closer look at the way things really stand
You’d see we’re all just niggers to the rulers of this land
Punk was once an answer to years of crap
A way of saying no where we’d always said yep
But the moment we saw a way to be free
They invented a dividing line, street credibility
The qualifying factors are politics and class
Left wing macho street fighters willing to kick arse
They said because of racism they’d come out on the street
It was just a form of fascism for the socialist elite
Bigotry and blindness, a marxist con
Another clever trick to keep us all in line
Neat little labels to keep us all apart
To keep us all divided when the troubles start
Pogo on a nazi, spit upon a jew
Vicious mindless violence that offers nothing new
Left wing violence, right wing violence, all seems much the same
Bully boys out fighting, it’s just the same old game
Boring fucking politics that’ll get us all shot
Left wing, right wing, you can stuff the lot
Keep your petty prejudice, I don’t see the point
ANARCHY AND FREEDOM IS WHAT I WANT
