The A Team

The poll tax hangs above our heads, as Thatcher wields the axe

The budget, well that pleased us, our shares increased and less tax

The nurses, fight for better pay ILEA closing down

Alton hits out with his bill, the yuppies invade town

The AIDS creation raised its head, their latest weapon to date

USA battles it out in the Gulf to show only they shall reign

The IRA bomb a military base some injured, someone dead

Superpowers discuss Atomic bombs, reductions seem in sight

Thousands join the new clause and march for Lesbian and Gay rights

The TUC, they delegate, another disaster strikes

P & O put their foot down, airport chaos screws the break

Sunshine radiation homes in; down pours more acid rain

See it ain't no pretty picture as we see our world destroyed

Multi-corporation graphs rise up to keep us all employed

The Government say they're succeeding with their democratic state

They say that we all stand as equals

That they genuinely trying, but the bastards are lying

Spewing out their bullshit, simply talking out their arse

The opposition prove yet again that they're just a jumped up farce

Full of socialist Marxist bollocks that just don't make any sense

Barking totally up the wrong tree on the wrong side of the fence

The only change you will see from them is the silver handed back

As you buy their militant paper full of promise and attack

A more apt title would be "servant" for their lapdogs just the same

As the racist shitrag bulldog, politricks the game

Support this, support that you don't know where support is at

It ain't dishing out little leaflets, wearing badges, looking right

They march here, march there, showing all how much they care

Lining someone else's pockets as the bucket comes around again

If you don't vote, then don't complain - oh fuck off!

Don't you realise what you're saying?

You're supporting every move they make

Holding the parliamentary system up, they rise, the powerful elite

There is no independence in party politics

They police the street, they dictate the beat

Her Majesty's institutions make sure the aware retreat

Oh yes, it's a sad sickening picture of human nature going wrong

Plummeting down the depths of degradation, the end, the result of your votes. We stand

Alone... Stop

Start- by organising, putting small pieces together

Soon the bits will fit in place the start of our new picture

Push forward for what you believe in and on achievement dig in hard

Don't let them try and break you, without you they fall apart

Civil rights and natural force will conquer, all and it's right on course

They can only offer chaos when the least we have got is love

We're talking one long tough struggle with many set backs along the path

To freedoms now ahead of us our world will exist at last

Remember, against all odds

We offer you democracy and progress. If you have the capital, we can offer you interest

There is no poverty, this is our reality. We will protect you but only if you invest

The AIDS crisis comes to those who sin,

You question the Gulf situation but the right shall win

Subversive groups are minorities. Will they ever learn and see?

That we're superpowers, we will always sin

Support has grown for the mutant sexual acts. Allow us please to give you some hard facts

We shall not stand for deviancy; it's not the way God meant us to be

Normal people we must push them back
