Yesterday heroes all gone away They died with their boots on Fighting for their own way So we stand here to have a say We’re the new breed - we rule o.k.

We’re their target for physical attacks For insults & violent acts We’re stopped at night by some copper Bastard - for walking home Coz we’re their target We’re their target They think we’d destroy their society Coz we don’t conform & sometimes act violently But we just wanna have a laugh But sure we’ll fight - if provoked - but We’re their target We’re refused a pint in the cafés And still we’re banned from several pubs (So) if you really want it - have it your way then ! Coz I do know who the enemy is We’re their target

When they walk the streets beside each other They stay united - they’re like brothers Boot boys from the same gang Those from the same side of town A thousand coppers wouldn’t stop them These boys do know how to survive They would never ever run away The pubs are theirs and so is the night Coz they rule the jungle Lionhearts rule the jungle They rule the jungle Lionhearts rule the jungle Down in the jungle through the breath of night Urban soldiers rule - they rule alright And you’d better watch yer back Coz here they come with an all-out attack oi oi oi

I don’t believe in your laws - I don’t need them at all I don’t believe in your gods - coz they make me look small No hoary falsehood shall be truth to me I don’t need yer printed idols - can’t you see ? To the north - I raise my voice To the south - I show a sign To the east - I beckon ! To the west - I shout ! For I stand forth to challenge yer god Lo & behold - all this is fraud No cult or dogma shall camp my pen Before none of your false prophets do I bend (down) To the north - I raise my voice To the south - I show a sign To the east - I beckon ! To the west - I shout !

Put not your trust in princes Is a saying old & true Don’t put your trust in Jesus Translateth it a new The world belongs to you So let nothing bar your way You might be dead tomorrow Or even today Christ’s ethics are for creeping things Not for those who stand strong Don’t believe in a mad-redeemer For he’s dead and gone Their books of law & manifestos Are fashioned to betray Do or be done - is the logic of today ! It’s do or be done It’s do or be done ! It’s do or be done Do or be done !

Scum!
Too long the dead hand has sterilized living thought Time to realize what for so long’s been ignored What man has made, man can destroy Tear down the walls in the name of Oi! Why can’t you see - that life is the great indulgence And death the great abstinence ? There is no heaven - no hell where sinners roast Here & now is what counts the most ! They’ve been inverting values for far too long There’s nothing sacred ‘bout their right & wrong Don’t you know what’s good for you & what is not Thrice cursed are the lambs of god ! Why can’t you see - that life is the great indulgence And death the great abstinence ? There is no heaven - no hell where sinners roast Here & now is what counts the most ! There is no heaven - no hell where sinners roast Here & now is what counts the most !
