lyrics

I’ve seen it all before
Revolution at my back door
Who’s to say it won’t happen all again?
‘Cause the generals sip Bacardi
While the privates feel all the pain.

They talk from the screen and T.V. tube
They talk revolution like it’s processed food.
They talk anarchy from music hall stages,
Look for change in colour supplement pages.
They think that by talking from some distant tower
That something might change in the structure of power.
They dream, they dream, never walk on the street.
They dream, they dream, never stand on their feet.

I’ve seen it all before
Revolution at my back door
Who’s to say it won’t happen all again?
‘Cause the generals sip Bacardi
While the privates feel all the pain.

Alternative values were a fucking con.
They never really meant it when they said “Get it on.”
They really meant, “Mine, that’s mine,” can’t you see?
They stamped on our heads so that they could be free.
They formed little groups, like rich man’s ghettoes
Tending their goats and organic tomatoes.
While the world was being fucked by fascist regimes
They talked of windmills and psychedelic dreams.

I’ve seen it all before
Revolution at my back door
Who’s to say it won’t happen all again?
‘Cause the generals sip Bacardi
While the privates feel all the pain.

The Crass Remix Project San Francisco, California

Crass were a punk band that existed from 1977 to 1984, taking the Sex Pistols' flippant ideas about anarchy and transforming it into an ethos that changed the conversation forever. We still have a lot to learn from them. The Crass Remix Project takes the first angry stirrings of Crass and views them through a fresh new lens. Ear Candle Productions now offers it to you for free. ... more
