Going Underground

Some people might say my life is in a rut

I'm quite happy with what I've got

People might say that I should strive for more

I'm so happy I can't see the point

Something's happening here today

A show of strength with your boys brigade

And I'm so happy and you're so kind

You want more money of course I don't mind

To buy nuclear textbooks for atomic crimes

And the public gets what the public wants

But I want nothing this society's got

I'm going underground

We'll let the brass bands play and feet start to pound

I'm going underground

We'll let the boys all sing and the boys all shout for tomorrow

Some people might need some tension to relax

Me, I'm too busy dodging the flak

What you see is what you get

You've made your bed you better lie in it

You choose your leaders and you place your trust

As their lies wash you down and their promises rust

You'll see kidney machines replaced by rockets and guns

And the public gets what the public wants

But I want nothing this society's got

I'm going underground

We'll let the brass bands play and feet start to pound

I'm going underground

We'll let the boys all sing and the boys all shout for tomorrow

We talk and talk until my head explodes

I turned on the news, my body froze

The braying sheep on the TV screen

Make this boy shout, make this boy scream

Going underground

We'll let the brass bands play and feet start to pound

I'm going underground

We'll let the boys all sing and the boys all shout for tomorrow
