crass - you're already dead lyrics

attention. f-ck american power. f-ck russian power. f-ck british power
f-ck all power
attention. these ignorant sh-ts arm themselves for annihilation and call it world peace
b-ll-cks

pacified. cl-ssified
keep in line. you’re doing fine
lost your voice? there ain’t no choice
play the game. silent and tame
be the p-ssive observer, sit back and look
at the world they destroyed and the peace that they took
ask no questions, hear no lies
and you’ll be living in the comfort of a fool’s paradise

you’re already dead, you’re already dead
you’re already dead, you’re already dead

if you’re the p-ssive observer, here’s a message for you
you’re already dead, you’re already dead
afraid to do what you know you should do…
you’re already dead, you’re already dead
the world’s at the edge of nuclear destruction
but your too afraid to make the connection
you still believe the system’s there for your protection…
you’re already dead, you’re already dead

you’re already dead, you’re already dead
you’re already dead, you’re already dead

by letting it happen without a fight…
you’re already dead, you’re already dead
with your endless debates about wrong and right…
you’re already dead, you’re already dead
nothing’s going to change if you’re not prepared to act
there’s no point complaining after the fact
content to be a number, branded x and neatly packed…
you’re already dead, you’re already dead

you’re already dead, you’re already dead
you’re already dead, you’re already dead

four hundred thousand people marched for cnd…
they’re already dead, they’re already dead
unless they’re willing to act on what they can see…
they’re already dead, they’re already dead
if each and every one of us was prepared to fight for more
to stand against the system that creates the need for war
the elite would have to run like it’s never run before…
they’re already dead, they’re already dead

they’re already dead, they’re already dead
they’re already dead, they’re already dead

we don’t need organising
or politicians being patronising
we don’t need their leadership
trendy lefties being hip
don’t need their condescension
or their back to root pretension
we’ve heard it all before
politicians saying “no more war”
pulling wool across our eyes
we don’t need their dangerous lies
we won’t accept capitulation
it’s just manipulation
they want the smooth without the rough
but words and gestures aren’t enough
we’ve got to learn to reject all leaders
and the p-ssive sh-t they feed us…

they’re already dead, they’re already dead
they’re already dead, they’re already dead

if you think moderation’s going to pave the way to peace…
you’re already dead, you’re already dead
what good is moderation ‘gainst the army and police?
you’re already dead, you’re already dead
we’re not promoting mindless violence, keep that for the fools
we’re simply saying be prepared to break their laws and rules
let them know the bigger they come, the harder they will fall…
they’re already dead, they’re already dead

they’re already dead, they’re already dead
they’re already dead, they’re already dead

if they’re going to play it dirty, so are we…
they’re already dead, they’re already dead
they can keep their lies about the land of the free…
they’re already dead, they’re already dead
we’ve allowed them too often to use their iron fist
but there’s one little detail they appear to have missed…
you don’t have to be p-ssive just because you’re a pacifist…
they’re already dead, they’re already dead

they’re already dead, they’re already dead
they’re already dead, they’re already dead

they’ll try to sell their system
like it’s some kind od age-old wisdom
but we’ve been had like that before
it’s just the rich exploiting the poor
well here’s an honest confession
we think it’s time they learnt a lesson
they’ve tried to hold the people down
but we’ve simply gone underground
moving in the darkness looking for the light
looking for a future and ready to fight
looking for the freedom that’s been denied
fast to attack and fast to hide
in a world where the people can’t make it
they’ve simply got to learn to break it
and if the wealthy aren’t prepared to shake it…
o.k., we’ll simply have to take it…

you’re already dead, you’re already dead
you’re already dead, you’re already dead
you’re already dead, you’re already dead
you’re already dead, you’re already dead…
