Remote control


(strummer/jones)

Who needs remote control
From the civic hall
Push a button
Activate
You gotta work an youre late

Its so grey in london town
With a panda car crawling around
Here it comes
Eleven oclock
Where can we go now?

Cant make a noise
Cant get no gear
Cant make no money
Cant get outta here

Big business it dont like you
It dont like the things you do
You got no money
So you got no power
They think youre useless
An so you are - puuuuuuunnnnnk!

They had a meeting in mayfair
They got you down an
They wanna keep you there
It makes them worried
Their bank accounts
Thats all that matters
And you dont count

Cant make no progress
Cant get ahead
Cant stop the regress
Dont wanna be dead

Look out those rules and regulations

Who needs the parliament
Sitting making laws all day
Theyre all fat and old
Queuing for the house of lords

Repression - gonna start on tuesday
Repression - gonna be a dalek
Repression - I am a robot
Repression - I obey

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

The Clash were one of Britain's greatest ever punk-rock bands. While the Sex Pistols may have initiated the punk revolution with their anarchic attitude and sound, The Clash conveyed constructive political ideas in their lyrics. Their sound was tighter than the Pistols', and incorporated dub, reggae, ska, funk and rockabilly too.
