Punx and Skins
The new breed stand there tall and proud
To the cause they are vowed
No matter what our critics say
Punk the movement is here to stay
Chorus:
Punx and skins are here to stay
'cause we don't care what the assholes say
Punx and skins are here to stay
'cause we don't care what the assholes say
"He's a violent stupid lout"
They've no idea what the hell it's about
They try to explain but they ain´t got a clue
Let's all hope that they never do
Chorus:
So on we go, still oppressed
Trying to stop our lives being messed
We'll carry on making our noise
With crack aways and punk and skin

3rd World War
Everywhere you look it's just the same
From north to south you see a fucking war
They say it's fun to kill someone
But we have no chance in a third world war
Chorus:
3rd world war
3rd world war is coming soon
3rd world war
3rd world war is coming soon
Maybe in the afternoon
USA and Russia have their nuclear weapon
They'll kill us all if we don't fight back
I don't wanna be a soldier, I don't wanna fight for my country
I don't wanna see the whole shit blow up
Chorus:
Fuck the wars
Fuck the wars
Fuck the wars
Fuck the wars
Repeat second verse

Don't Give Up
Punkrockers and skinheads
We must be together
Fight against the government
Not with each other
Punkrockers and skinheads
We must be together
Fight against the government
Not with each other
Chorus:
Don't give up
Don't give up
Don't give up the fight
Don't give up
Don't give up
Don't give up the fight
Punkrockers and skinheads
Don't get fooled by the bosses
Don't give them money or power
Just give them nothing
Chorus:
Punkrockers and skinheads
Do something against the unemployment
Do something now
Before it's too late

Sick
02:48
|

Sick
Electric meters gone again
No money on the side
I feel my temper rising fast
I'm just like Jekyll and Hyde
I wanna smash a roller
I wanna steal some dough
I wanna go to a polling boot
And just vote no
Chorus:
We ain't Nazis, we ain't reds
Just ordinary people
Sick, sick, sick of being mislead
Bohman throw us on the dole
Another fucking statistic
But Palme ain't much better
He makes me more sick
Palme is supposed to be our man
The voice of working class
But he all line his pocket
And sit on his fat arse
Chorus:
Electric meters gone again
No money on the side
I feel my temper rising fast
I'm just like Jekyll and Hyde
'cept this time it's no party
This time it's for real
This time the working classes
Will show the bosses how we feel
Chorus:
You lead us up the garden path
To poverty and hunger
But you can only push us so far
And we ain't going under...
We ain't going under
We ain't going under
We ain't going under
We ain't going under
Chorus:

Nowhere
02:51
|
|||
Nowhere
We're nowhere
You only talk for the few
You haven't kept anything
Empty words are all we hear
Filled with anger, filled with fear
Chorus:
We don't think you really care
And we don't think that's so fair
But so what? you don't care
We're nowhere
I look at you on television
You're going to make a big decision
Tho' you don't know what's going on
And you don't care about right or wrong
Chorus:
You've always got the right clothes
You know exactly how to talk
I don't know what you say
But I know its a lie
Chorus:
You're making decisions for the crowd
Tho' you don't care what's it about
'cause all your care is about your career
And the crowd of friends that you're near
You got yourself the high pay
But it makes no difference anyway
'cause you never ever listen to the youth
And you never ever told us the truth
You never told us the truth
The truth, you never told us the truth
You're nowhere
Chorus:

That's Life
02:29
|

That's Life
Every day is just the same
Always someone who tries to give me the blame
No matter what I do, no matter what I say
It's always the same thing anyway
Chorus:
They're trying to make me small
They're trying to make me crawl
And I, I don't belong
No I, I don't belong
That's right, I don't belong
That's life, I don't belong
At all
Don't do this, don't do that
It's always me who takes the crap
My girlfriends crying, my mothers begging
It makes no different what I'm saying
Chorus:
I don't belong to you
You don't belong to me
I don't belong to anyone
So fuck off and let me be
Out somewhere having fun
They're telling me to shut it down
Why are they always picking on me?
I just wished they'd let me be
Chorus:
Playing music, having a good time
My neighbours want me to turn it down
They hate me and my style
And they hope I'll move away
Chorus:

City of Pollution
Can you see the chimneys down in the harbour?
Can you see the smoke from the fucking chimneys?
Can you smell the polluted air that poisoning us every day?
We must stop the pollution before were dead
Chorus:

City of pollution
City of pollution

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

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

Unemployed 83
You were always reminding me about how stupid I was
But whatever you said I didn't give a toss
You promised me a proper job and a proper pay
But when I joined the union, you sacked me
You were giving me orders, do this and do that
I was working me sick while you were getting fat
You were the boss and I was your slave
And you were always counting the money
That you made
Chorus:
Ain't got no job, ain't got no money
Do you really think that's so funny?
You were giving orders what to do
but now I'm thru with you, fuck you
I'm so useless, I'm so worthless
So now I'm unemployed
I'm so useless, I'm so worthless
So now I'm unemployed
You were giving me orders, do this and do that
I was working me sick while you were getting fat
You were the boss and I was your slave
And you were always counting the money
That you made
Chorus:
Sometimes I'd like to kick in your brain
'Cause all your orders were driving me insane
Now I no longer take more of your crap
And I didn't give a damn when you got me sacked
Chorus:

Lost Generation
Lost, lost generation
Ain't got no future in this nation
You, you give us no hope
We are completely irrelevant
Bastards, bastards you say we are
But now, this time you've gone too far
We say, we say what we wanna do
But you don't care, oh fuck you
Chorus:
Lost generation
Lost generation
Lost generation
Lost generation
Ain't got no future
We are, we are, the youth of today
Listen up 'cause we've got something to say
Soon, soon there will be a riot
We'll never surrender, never keep quiet
We say, we say, fuck your rules
This time you have gone too far
We don't, we don't need your laws
Up your arse with them all
Chorus:
You say, you say we ain't too clever
But for that were going to live for ever
Hate, hate society, we ain't to blame, you and me
Future, future, how about that
They treat us like a bunch of fools
We're all together, all unite
All this time, the endless fight
Chorus:
Lost, lost, generation, I got no future in this nation
Lost, lost, generation, I got no future in this nation
Lost, lost, generation, I got no future in this nation
Lost, lost, generation, I got no future in this nation
Ain't got no future in this nation
Ain't got no future in this nation
Ain't got no future in this nation
Ain't got no future in this nation

Unga och arga
Vi e ungdomen av idag
Dom tror vi ställer upp på deras jävla krav
Ingenting gör dom för oss
Mot pamparna ska vi alltid slåss
Unga och arga
Dom delar upp oss i samhällsgrupper
Sen skickar dom ut oss i arbetstrupper
Samhället är så jävla fel
Så jävla fel att jag tror jag får spel
Refräng:
Vi e dom unga
Unga och arga, unga och arga
Vi e dom unga
Unga och arga, unga och arga
Vi e dom unga
Unga och arga, unga och arga
Vi e dom unga
Unga och arga, unga och arga
Ingen chans ger dom oss unga
Fan vad jag tycker dom e dumma
Nu ska vi sätta hårt emot hårt
Förena oss ska väl inte bli så svårt
Unga och arga
Vår värsta fiende är samhället
Om nåt går fel så får vi skället
Dom bryr sig aldrig om vad vi säger
Dom skiter i oss, eller
