Days of Rage

Born up in the city streets

How did she get tired of me?

How come you dare to dare to be different?

You're in my head and I don't look back

Read the words of Kerorac

My brother said "Join the bloody army", yeah

Going down the cemetery

Here am I for the C N D

My feet were bruised, my hands were bleedin'

Playin' guitar in the streets alone

Police there wouldn't leave me alone

Dad said "Give over being a vagrant", yeah!

Was this a rebel without reason?

I'm not a tailor without clothes

Or was this youthful desolation?

So much to learn, nowhere to turn

Days of rage

Years of promise

Would it be like mine?

Would it be like yours?

Days of rage

Years of promise

Don't let it slip by

Without wondering why

Ow!

Strut back aside, came out

The old man said I was a lazy sod

Runnin' 'round with thieves and

Runners from the West End

Take pills, stay up all night

Talk about football, start a fight

The beer was warm, the women freezing

It was a time in decisions

No point to ask, no mercy given

I searched for truth in words of wisdom

Turn back the clock, I'd rather not

Days of rage

Years of promise

Would it be like mine?

Would it be like yours?

Days of rage

Years of promise

It'll pass you by

With a wink of an eye

The immigrants love our nation

We wrote on every wall and station

No home, no job, no expectations

Nothing's changed, so who's to blame?

Days of rage

Years of promise

Don't be like mine

Let it be like yours

Days of rage

Years of promise

It'll pass you by

With a wink of an eye

Days of rage

Years of promise

Don't be like mine

Let it be like yours

Days of rage

Years of promise

Don't let it slip by

Without wondering why

Days of rage

Years of promise

Will it be like mine

Will it be like yours

Days of rage

Years of promise

Don't let it slip by

Without wondering why

Yeah, yeah

Yeah

Fuckin' yeah
