Blitz

 

 

Never Surrender

 

Never surrender, never give in

Never let the enemy win

Never say why, never say die

It's always worth another try

(chorus)Never surrender...

Never give in to things they say

Better move fast before its too late

Lose the race, lose your face

Better keep cool and play the ace

Never surrender...

 

Nation On Fire

 

it's summertime and the country's on the line

the lads are on the streets and the riots doing fine

picking up the pieces after the night

picking up the pieces for another fight

the bricks beat down in the boys in blue

there's no escape, they're coming for you

the clubs come down 'round your head

it's war on the streets and they're running red!

(chorus) police are running facing defeat

cities burning in the summerheat

police are running facing defeat

cities burning in the summerheat

the law can't stop the anger of the crowds

they're still coming through tear-gas clouds

police are running, facing defeat

tears are falling in the summerheat

the bricks beat down in the boys in blue

there's no escape, they're coming for you

the clubs come down 'round your head

it's war on the streets and they're running red!

 

Warriors

 

Your sun is setting and the day is late

As we walk over this wasteland of hate

There's people getting angry in these darkest hours

There's blood on the streets and the streets are ours

(chorus) Warriors, never forget the Warriors

Our mates are diamond and we shine like steel

You can't beat us down the wounds will never heal

You can't take us for a ride

You can't rob a warrior of his pride

It's your hate on which we feed

We are the new class we are the new breed

Send our regards to a nation on fire

And with love a bouquet of barbed wire

From the Warriors

 

Someones Gonna Die

 

This is where the good times end

With his brains laying on the pavement

With a broken bottle in his hand

And another in his back

(chorus) Do you feel alright? Oi! Oi! Oi!

Someone's gonna die tonight Oi! Oi! Oi!

Do you feel alright? Oi! Oi! Oi!

The boys are out tonight!

Was it something that he said?

with his football scarf now stained red

With a broken bottle in his hand

You will never understand

 

Fight To Live

 

Time get hard you get uptight

You'd better watch out for the danger signs

Praying for your life (*??) Rut

Fighting for survival this feeling in your gut

(chorus) 'Cos we fight to live

We live to fight

We don't give a shit

What's wrong or what's right

 

1.NATION ON FIRE
 
it's summertime and the country's on the line
the lads are on the streets and the riots doing fine
picking up the pieces after the night
picking up the pieces for another fight
the bricks beat down in the boys in blue
there's no escape, they're coming for you
the clubs come down 'round your head
it's war on the streets and they're running red!
 
police are running facing defeat
cities burning in the summerheat
police are running facing defeat
cities burning in the summerheat
 
the law can't stop the anger of the crowds
they're still coming through tear-gas clouds

tears are falling in the summerheat

the clubs come down 'round your head
it's war on the streets and they're running red!

We are the new class we are the new breed
Send our regards to a nation on fire
And with love a bouquet of barbed wire
From the Warriors
 
 
3.RAZORS IN THE NIGHT
 
running away, somthing better ahead
but you gotta think fast before it's too late
just one cut 'round your head,
just one minute and you'll call me dead
 
chorus:
said you better watch out
for the razors here tonight
you better leave out
the razors here tonight

razor blades, and angry faces
too much tension, too much beer
what the hell am I doing here?

7.WE ARE THE BOYS
 
We are the boys who can turn on the heat
we are the boys and you're under our feet
We've got nothing but the clothes that we wear
We've got that attitude - And we don't care
 
chorus:
Hey! we are the boys
And we make the noise
We call the shots
'Cos hey! we are the boys
 
We are the boys of another class
We drink the beer while you hold the glass
We take what we can and what we can use
We are the boys and we've got nothing to loose
 
chorus
 
We are the boys, we like bending the rules
we are the boys and you are the fools
You don't have to pose to mean what you feel
We are the boys and we mean it for real

8.TIME BOMB
 
You think that time is on your side
But now you've nowhere left to hide
The past is catching up with you
And now there's nothing you can do with
 
chorus:
This time bomb
Seconds to last with this
Time bomb
You'll rock from the blast of this
Time bomb
 
The scene is set, the time is right
You are playing with dynamite
In the end you're bound to lose
Because you refuse to defuse
 
chorus
 
You make me a promise and waste my life
You try to make friends with a knife
You left me for dead and called me a liar
You'll get burned from the fire of
 
chorus
 
 
9. VOICE OF A GENERATION
 
This is the voice of a generation
Of unemployment and aggravation
Life's too short for wasting time
Because of this I'm wasting mine
 
I just can't go on living this way
It's always the same day after day
Fed up of sitting and lying around
I just can't seem to get off the ground
 
And I don't wanna be poor no more
And I don't wanna be poor no more
 
This is the voice...
 
 
10. BLEED
 
Bleed - You are bleeding to death
But from the outside you look so good
And inside you've rotted away
And you won't know until that day
When we have drained you
It will be too late
To save your skin
And alter your face
And a little time is all that we need
And now we are watching you bleed...
 
 
11. T.O.
 
What do you think you're doing touching me there ?
What do you...
 
 
12. CRIMINAL DAMAGE
 
Criminal damage on a national scale
Something to fight for, you'll never fail
Smash the system that smashes you
Thash the system that smashes you
Do you wanna win this war,
Is your cause worth fighting for ?
 
 
13.I DONīT NEED YOU
 
I just don't know what to say
And you don't listen anyway
Can't you see, are you so dumb ?
I only want you came
 
I don't need you
 
You look well an half-past ten
But soon I'll be so straight again
Girl I wish you'd understand
I don't want to hold your hand
 
chorus:
I dont need you
 
Don't you cry you know the crack
You know I don't want you back
Maybe once you were nice
But it's no fun to do it twice
 
 
14. PROPAGANDA
 
Defending this corruption on which you are sat
You tell me what to think, you tell me this and that
`Freedom is O.K. you scum` but make sure it`s never used
In your defence of liberty I always stand accused
 
And your shadow in the sun always give a shock
While the hate mail rises like some kind of moral rock
Propaganda, you scare me to death
Propaganda, you scare me to death
 
I know you want to lock me up and see justice done
You say get the army in, you hope that day will come
You will give me something to think about Right between my eyes
Then you`ll see your freedom the day that freedom dies
 
I can`t see many reds underneath my bed
But the fascists in the letter-box are messing up my head
You tell me I`ve got rights, the same for rich and poor
But you`re behind the police when they`re knocking down my door
