lyrics

18. The War on Terror

The war on terror is a war on freedom
Thought crime will land you in prison
Greater powers to arrest you on suspicion
Ordinary people treated with derision

Hatred and mistrust of your family and friends
Suddenly your neighbours are strangers again
Suspicion burns a hole in the fabric of this land
Kneejerk condemnation when we fail to understand

Division of community is nearly complete
Fear and hatred right up your street
Gagged and bound up nice and neat
Dragged out, ground up beneath their feet

On behalf of the state we’re treated all the same
Fitted up, banged up, never seen again
On behalf of the state we’re treated all the same
Fitted up, banged up, never seen again

You could be on the list of potential terrorists
Easily susceptible to extremist views
Detained without charge for six weeks of questioning
Or shot through the head on the ten o’clock news

Ska Punk as good as it gets. Other bands would benefit from taking notes. Culture Shock is relevant as always with the contemporary lyrics, and the music will force you to nod in rhythm whether you want to or not. Droote
