Going Underground |
| Some people might say my life is in a rut |
| But I’m happy with what I got |
| People might say that I should strive for more |
| But I’m so happy, I can’t see the point |
| Something’s happening here today |
| A show of strength with your boy’s brigade |
| And I’m so happy and you’re so kind |
| You want more money, of course, I don’t mind |
| To buy nuclear textbooks for atomic crimes |
| And the public gets what the public wants |
| But I want nothing this society’s got |
| I’m going underground |
| Well, the brass bands play and feet start to pound |
| Going underground |
| Let the boys all sing and let the boys all shout for tomorrow |
| Some people might get some pleasure out of hate |
| I’ve enough already on my plate |
| People might need some tension to relax |
| Me, I’m too busy dodging between the flak |
| What you see is what you get |
| You’ve made your bed, you better lie in it |
| You choose your leaders and place your trust |
| As their lies wash down and their promises rust |
| You’ll see kidney machines replaced by rockets and guns |
| And the public gets what the public wants |
| But I won’t get what society’s got |
| I’m going underground |
| Well, the brass bands play and feet start to pound |
| Going underground |
| Let the boys all sing and the boys all shout for tomorrow |
| We talk and talk 'til my head explodes |
| I turned on the news and my body froze |
| The braying sheep on my TV screen |
| Makes this boy shout, makes this boy scream |
| Going underground |
| Going underground |
| Going underground |
| Going underground |
| The braying sheep on my TV screen |
| Makes this boy shout, makes this boy scream |
| I’m going underground |
| Well, the brass bands play and feet start to pound |
| Going underground |
| Well, let the boys all sing and the boys all shout |
| Going underground |
| Well, the brass bands play and feet go pow pow pow |
| Going underground |
| Let the boys all sing and the boys all shout for tomorrow |
