Hold On Tight
They say it ain't safe to go out anymore So the police station has bolted up the door The floor's full of torn up betting stubs They put televisions in my favourite pubs Our homes get bulldozed, no one watches They want soap operas, not soap boxes This town has left me high and dry But i'll be here 'till the day I die.
They tell me i'm just pissed off Yeah maybe i'm just pissed off But i'd rather be pissed off Than be pissed on
As the world burns down outside And they battle on the front line My darling hold on tight My darling hold on tight
We beg for another show we can watch 'till we're sick Just like a donkey chasing a carrot on a stick Watching our lives filmed in a soft focus With abrakadabra and hocus pocus One billion channels and there's still nothing on The television will not be revolutionised The announcer says 'and now for something completely indifferent'

As the world burns down outside And they battle on the front line My darling hold on tight My darling hold on tight
'Cause I demand my rock n roll, with blood sweat and tears I demand my reggae, to cause bleeding in my ears I demand my punk rock, to start a revolution I demand my hardcore to sound like an execution I demand sound systems on the streets, playing the loudest tracks I demand no rent, no bills, no council tax I demand love, that isn't measured, by the relationships of the characters on Friends or the words to some dire RnB song about what a good man what a mighty, mighty good man is
So as the world burns down outside And they battle on the front line My darling hold on tight My darling hold on tight
