Manfred Mann's Earth Band - Going Underground Lyrics
Some people might say my life is in a rut, I'm quite happy with what Igot. People might say that I should strive for more, I'm so happy Ican't see the point, something's happening here today, a show ofstrength with your boys brigade, and I'm so happy and your so kind, youwant more money of course I don't mind, to buy nuclear textbooks foratomic crimes.(chorus)And the public gets what the public wants but I want nothing thissociety's got, I'm Going Underground, we'll let the brass bands playand feet start to pound, I'm Going Underground. We'll let the boys allsing and the boys all shout for tomorrow.Some people might get some pleasure out of hate, me, I've had enoughalready on my plate. Some people might need some tension to relax, me,I'm too busy dodging the flak. What you see is what you get, you'vemade your bed, you better lie in it. You choose your leaders and placeyour trust as their lies wash you down and their promises rust, you'llsee kidney machines replaced by rockets and guns.(repeat chorus)We talk and we walk until my head explodes, I turn on the news and mybody froze. The braying sheep on the TV screen make this boy shout,make this boy scream going underground...(repeat chorus)(paul Weller
