Crass - Rival Tribal Rebel Revels (part 2) lyrics

Being tough 'n' rough is my kind of fun but, of course I never do no harm

Ain't my fault I like cracking bones, gives me a funny kind of thrill

I can't help smiling at the pathetic moans, when I go in for the kill

Tribal wars are raging, it's a battlefield on the street

There's games to play and hell to pay when the rival tribal rebels meet

Why can't people just leave me be? Can't help doing what I do

I'll do anybody who ain't like me so forget your what, why or who

I ain't got no purpose and I don't give a fuck

I never asked for this life

If you're looking for reasons you're out of luck

I'll show you the point with my knife

Tribal wars are raging, no-one's safe out on their own

The gangs are about and they scream and shout

So you'd better not be caught alone

I did it cos there ain't nothing else to do

Nowhere'll let me in

It ain't my fault I want to hurt and screw

So I've destroyed every place where I've been

I had trouble at the local so they won't serve me there

I just had to chivvy up this bloke

Left him with a smile cut from ear to ear

But the bleeder never got the joke

Used to have a bird but I put her up the spout

Had to tell her where to get off

Well you can't blame me if I want to get about

If you're a man you've gotta be tough

I used to go down the cafe for tea

But my boot got attacked by the door

So now it ain't open for the likes of me

And we're back on the streets like before

Tribal wars are raging, our heroes are standing tall

But the truth of the matter, if you cut out the patter

Is that pride always comes before the fall

They can stand on the corner with their violence and their hate

Stand there and fester 'til they've left it too late

To realise it's themselves they've put their on the spot

Cos they've wasted the one and only life that they've got

Tribal wars are raging, everyone's acting out bad parts

Oi, hey big man, take a look at yourself

It's in the mirror that the real war starts
