Gandhi Mate, Gandhi (Live in London, March 2012)
Now I don't know about you but I don't think the primary purpose of your life, of my life, of the entirety of the human race is just to blindly consume to support a failing economy and a faulty system, forever and ever until we run out of every resource and have to resort to blowing each other up to ensure our own survival. I don't think we're supposed to sit by idle whilst we continue to use a long-outdated system that produces war, poverty, collusion, corruption, ruins our environment and threatens every aspect of our health, and does nothing but divide and segregate us. I don't think how much military equipment we're selling to other countries, how many hydrocarbons we're burning, how much money's been printed in exchange, is a good measure of how healthy our society is. But I do think I can speak for everyone when I say:
We're sick of this shit!
Time to mobilise,
Time to open eyes.
We are not a quiet pocket of resistance (This is real!)
But we cannot afford to fail!
Act with, act with persistence (This is real!)
But we cannot afford to fail!
Army, established order,
Respect me and fear me! (Fuck you!)
We hold no respect,
And when tomorrow comes,
WE'RE GONNA STAMP ON YOUR HEAD. PIG.
Rory C: Woah, woah! Calm down, calm the fuck down! Jesus.
Rob: Calm down mate! Gandhi mate, remember Gandhi...
Rou: Alright, alright I'm fine.
See, if we keep them silent, then they'll resort to violence and that's how we criminalise change.
Ahhhhhh, Yabba dabba do one, son!
We don't want your rules!
Who you foolin', son, we've got all the tools,
We need to build a whole new system,
To correct these flaws!
(You know what) I've already listed them,
You're a Communist!
You're a fucking Utopianist!
Ah, here they come, the immersive labels
But they're attempted fails.
'Cause man, we're so far out your comfort zone.
We stop, think, begin to revive.
We stop, think, begin to revive.
We stop, we think, we begin to revive,
We begin to revive.
Put a call out to the frontline,
Get the message out to the contact squad.
Transmit emergency frequencies.
Put a call out to the frontline,
Get the message out to the contact squad.
Put a call out, put a call out, put a call OOUUUTT.
Oh and the jigsaw starts to build.
Oh and the jigsaw starts to build.
Piece by PIIEECCEE!
OPEN THEIR MINDS.
Transmit emergency frequencies!
OPEN THEIR MINDS.
Transmit emergency frequencies!
Emergency frequencies.
Emergency frequencies.
Emergency frequencies.
Emergency frequencies.
We're sick of this shit!
Time to mobilise,
Time to open eyes.
We are not a quiet pocket of resistance (This is real!)
But we cannot afford to fail!
Act with, act with persistence (This is real!)
But we cannot afford to fail!

Respect me and fear me! (Fuck you!)
