First they'll come for the anarchists They'll come for the alternatives Come for the artists, poets and writers Come for the thinkers, doers and fighters They'll come for the video activists Come for anyone who dares resist Come for those who spread dissent They'll come for us, the ninety nine percent Coz we are the enemy led into a trap Sold our futures, force fed crap We are the enemy, weve been stitched By elite educated privelidged and rich We are the enemy locked in a cage Of zero hour contracts and minimum wage We are the enemy we've always been Chained to work as a part of the machine We are the enemy why are you surprised Taken in again by government lies We are the enemy tied to the rules We are the sheeple following fools They'll come for those with different behaviour Come for your workmates and next door neighbour Come for your family mates and friends They'll come for those who are not like them Come for those who give attitude Come for us til were subdued They'll come for everyone, you and me They'll come for us, coz we are the enemy

There's a fix for your unhappiness Theres a way to keep you calm Theres a chemical dependancy To keep you safe from harm Theres a way to make it thru the day To make your troubles go away It's not how you feel that made you ill It's the world that made you sick Drugged up, dumbed down - Reliance on your drug of choice Drugged up, dumbed down - No will, no thought, no voice Drugged up, dumbed down - Fill your head with noise Drugged up, dumbed down - No brain, no life, no choice You're a slave to your compulsion From the moment you are born There's a lifetime of addiction To make sure you conform State reliance, State control Play their game, play your role It's not how you feel that made you ill It's the world that made you sick The system is dysfunctional It treats us like machines A culture of denial, breeds neurotic human beings Be a robot, be a slave, dig yourself an early grave It's not how you feel that made you ill It's the world that made you sick

No need for A false flag operation Dont need one on a sleeping nation They want to keep us dumb and ignorant Try and manufacture our consent Do exactly what the governments say Go back to sleep everything is ok No facts required, No actual proof Coz lies always travel - faster than truth They wanna chip us to make us dumb Make us subserviant, Everyone Bent to their will, Diminish and divide Each identical, Just as advertised No evidence needed in this state of denial We all stand accused, all on trial Told what to do, told what to say Told who to vote for and who to obey

Drip By Drip 02:25
You can't do anything without being seen Get followed everywhere you've ever been Tracked in the street, snooped on at home They can read everything on your mobile phone Watched in work, your life is scanned There's an app for that, install on demand They've got your passwords, personal information Your banking details and current location Drip drip drip - kiss your rights goodbye You gave them up to the digital spy Drip drip drip - it'll all become clear Nothing to hide but everything to fear Check into your home with the GPS They know where you are no need to guess They know where you go everything you do The electronic eye is spying on you They've got details of everyone Permission granted, damage done Sharing your life and identity The invisible threat to your liberty You opted in, you can't opt out You ticked agree but did not read A hidden assault on your privacy A surveillance state you cannot see Recorded, filmed,sold for profit You have no choice you must comply Last Exit To Freedom But terms and conditions still apply

Born in so called peaceful times A constant war for hearts and minds Not allowed to think not allowed to speak Sort the strong out from the weak This means war This means war This means war Your God is not the same as ours We worship a higher power Money is our god of choice We'll silence your dissenting voice I would rather live my life with no guarantees Than give up my rights for a chance to be free Dont serve your masters gods or deities Id rather die on my feet, than live on my knees You don't think like we do You're people must be free from you We'll bring you our democracy And bomb you if you dont agree

I'm not here to impress you, I've just come here to say Its in the public interest, To break the rules every day Don't be sitting on that Fence Get off and make a difference Make waves and swim against the flow Challenge the status quo Question Authority Question Authority Question Authority Question Authority I'm not here to dictate to you, I've just come here to say It's in the public interest, to disregard and disobey Stand for what you know is right Dont give up without a fight Stir things up and aggravate Spread the word communicate I'm not here to annoy you, I've just come here to say Its in the nations interest, to resist in any way. Throw a spanner in the works Antagonise and subvert And Questioning Authority Should be your main priority

Watch the mobs converge on Whitehall Black Bloc take on Parliment Square Pinstripe suits to bomber jackets The countries people gather there Voices that are filled with anger Faces done a thousand wrongs Waiting for someone to hear them Yells and chants and protest songs. R.I.P – Riot In Progress Boys in blue and armoured vehicles Hardcore veterans, hard as nails Sent to cause the most disruption Unleash hell when all else fails Fill the air with bricks and bottles Rain down on the body suits Riot squads charge in on horseback Dying to put in the boot R.I.P – Riot In Progress Armoured tanks fire on people Rubber bullets, Water jets Protesters still shout with anger Fuck your law we ain't done yet Running battles, bricks through windows Looted shops and smashed in doors Knocked down by a well aimed missile bathed in blood upon the floor R.I.P – Riot In Progress

Glass Monstrocity, office monolith Luxury apartment, playgrounds for the rich Flash car, flash suit, gold credit card A yacht on the Thames near a fine wine bar London's boring, not burning or drowned London's being sanitised and torn down London once the in place to be Now london is boring with anxiety Biometric entry, eyeball scans Private police are always on hand Fenced communities where wealth is displayed Expensive coffee shops and bland displays Railway development, impresses none Social Cleansing threatens everyone Wipe out the past til there's nothing left to give Gentrified, sanitised, no alternative

about

Acoustic - Angry Acoustic. This is Russ Crimewave's first CD single release to coincide with the Limited clear 7" vinyl split with Andy H of Surgery Without Research which has tracks 1 & 2 on it (50 only - available elsewhere)

Tracks 3-8 are tracks that were played once or very rarerly played and were recorded live specifically for this CD in two goes with the best vocal being used and a mix of both guitars. These tracks are rough and ready like one of Russ Crimewave's gigs and are meant to serve as a document to songs that he felt were too good to waste.
