lyrics

If you break the rules or you step out of line
You better watch your back mate or you will end up doing time
‘Cos the nature of their game is to lock you away
And they will turn you into prisoners where you will never have your say
From the day that you were born you have been controlled
So jump to it citizen and do as you’re told
And that is the reason I’m so full of hate
‘Cos I’m just a number in a government Police State

Inhumanity and brutality
That’s the nature of our government state police
What the matter with their personalities
That’s the nature of our countries hated police

Change the rules make them harder each day
No room for subversitives getting in their way
All legitimate forms of protest will soon be outlawed
It’s just a port of their master plan to keep us all indoors
Once we’re safely shut inside they can take away the key
The keys your freedom our hope and liberty
So that is the reason I’m so full of hate
‘Cos I’m just a number in a government police state

Knew surprisingly little of them when I was wee scenster in the 80s, but glad I'm discovering their back catalogue. They helped make the genre an art form. t0rqreturn2019
