Rival Tribal Rebel Revels (part 2) Lyrics - Singles - Crass

Cor blimey guvnor I'm the big 'un, cop an eyeful of this muscular arm 

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
