Chumbawamba - Karl Marx Never Made The Squad lyrics

There's entertainment

There's politics

There's popular culture

There's dialectics

But never the twain shall meet

Never the twain shall meet

This is a myth, propagated by the bourgeois wordsmiths

Who never put a ball in the back of the net

Who never padded up or picked up a bat

Who never spent an afternoon watching their sport

Never saw the bosses quietly taking over

Never saw the stadiums, terraces, arenas

Bought off, remodeled by G plan designers

Sold off and ripped off by company directors

All these so called "revolutionaries"

Who are too busy with the uprising to see what's going on

Will be shocked to discover that at this very moment

Ron Pickering is preparing a crack squad of Proles

Too liberate our sport from its capitalist oppressors

In tracksuits and trainers, the rising of the masses!
