Last Survivors In the beginning we we're takin' over But now you're running 'round being sober You said to me: it's all a joke Do you think you're funny? Stupid bloke The last survivors Before it was trash and life's a riot But now you're sitting home and being quiet Letting the crap just pass by And never thinking why? Chorus: Survival! You and I Survival! We'll never die Survival! We'll survive Survive! We are the last survivors You say to me I'm acting strange No use fighting, there'll never be a change But we'll keep on fighting 'til the end 'cause we've got something to defend The last survivors We're proud of what we are and what we're doing Tho' you mean we're lost in ruin Listen! We don't care what you say Our heads held high and we'll survive Chorus: So now you've got a descent life With a proper home and a pretty wife While I'm wasting my time Without the lust of being someone The last survivors I ain't never gonna settle down 'cause I like the way of messin' around Ok! You're a winner and I'm a loser So what the fuck? We ain't got no future Chorus:

1984 (Reality Today) So the governments they come and go So what the fuck, it's the same show So many people blinded by their lies They haven't seen the reality of today So the future is an unwritten story But it's got the power and it's got the glory I ain't got no future and it's the same for you So why don't you fuck off, fuck you Before it was 83, now it's 84 What the fuck I'm living for? I ain't got no future and it's the same for you But what the fuck can we do? Chorus: 1981 wasn't that fun 1982 not a shit for me and you 1983 what's it gonna be in 1984? Is it worth living for? The future is an unwritten story But it's got the power and it's got the glory It's our future which we ain't control People in misery and people on the dole Chorus: The cold war is here to stay - reality today! And it's always gonna be that way - reality today! Until hell break loose - reality today! It's up to us so you'd better choose - reality today! So the governments they come and go So what the fuck, it's the same show So many people blinded by their lies They haven't seen the reality of today Chorus:

Never Give up Clever people gives me advice That I've got to cheat to survive Lies and corruptions all around Think about it and it gets you down Chorus: Never ever, never give up Never ever, never give up Stand up and fight Never stop smashing your head to the wall Stand up straight tho' you're feeling small Don't believe when they say you're wrong Never give up, just keep fighting on Chorus: They're treating us just like slaves We're just some marks in their play For how much longer can we let them go on that way? It's about our future but the fight is today Chorus:

Boys will be Boys We're running wild just for fun Don't tell us to grow up, shut it down! Repeat We're just looking for some action And always gets the girls attraction Chorus: Boys will be boys Will be boys, will be boys Always will be Boys will be boys Will be boys, will be boys Always We're out on the street in the middle of the night You're jealous on us so you wanna fight Repeat We're all messed up and we're havin' fun So you can never put us down Chorus: We're on a party wild as hell What we're doing you can't tell Repeat We just live from day to day What's the point? We're going to die anyway Chorus:

about

Line-up:
Svegis-guitar
Lankan-drums
Puma-vocals
Ingemar-bass

Recorded by Sven Vikukel or Christian Odeholm at Maskinen 27-28/2 1984.
Rockin' Rebels Records 001, 1984.

The tracks were recorded in the beginning of 1984. Then the band split up, and got back together again with a new drummer, Groll, since Lankan had joined D.T.A.L. and was no longer available. The record was later released in the autumn. The oi-thing from the first Ep is gone, and the band had moved toward raw punk rock with influences both from the first and the second punk movement.
