The Clash Lyrics

"Remote Control" lyrics


The Clash
Remote Control

(Strummer/Jones)

Who needs remote control

From the Civic Hall

Push a button

Activate

You gotta work an' you're late

It's so grey in London town

With a panda car crawling around

Here it comes

Eleven o'clock

Where can we go now?

Can't make a noise

Can't get no gear

Can't make no money

Can't get outta here

Big business it don't like you

It don't like the things you do

You got no money

So you got no power

They think you're useless

An' so you are - puuuuuuunnnnnk!

They had a meeting in Mayfair

They got you down an'

They wanna keep you there

It makes them worried

Their bank accounts

That's all that matters

And you don't count

Can't make no progress

Can't get ahead

Can't stop the regress

Don't wanna be dead

Look out' those rules and regulations

Who needs the Parliament

Sitting making laws all day

They're all fat and old

Queuing for the House of Lords

Repression - gonna start on Tuesday

Repression - gonna be a Dalek

Repression - I am a robot

Repression - I obey
