Crass - I Ain't Thick, It's Just A Trick Lyrics
Chorus: Oh yeah? Oh yeah? Well I've got it all up here, see? Oh yeah? Oh yeah? When they think they've got it all out there, see? They can ***** off, cos they ain't got me They can't buy my dignity Oh yeah? Oh yeah? Let me tell you, I've got it all up here, see?Tried to get me with a t.v. showI wouldn't have none of it, no, no, noStandards and values on a black and white screenSarah Farah Fawcett acting meanShe's got the lot, that's what they want you to thinkRead between the lines, you'll see the missing linkShe's just a *****ing puppet in their indoctrination plan"Be like me girls, become a real man"Live to the full, always act flashDon't use your brains when your body makes the splashChorusTried to get me in the supermarket storeBought what I wanted, they they said "buy more"Mountains of crap that nobody really needsGaily coloured wrappers to suit assorted greedsThey've got the lot, that's what they want you to thinkRead between the lines, you'll see the missing linkBuy this product, pay for the crapQuarter for the product, three quarters for the wrapBe a happy family, like the people on the packPay up to the profit, and you'll never look backChorusTried to get me with their learning and their booksDeep understanding and intelligent looksAll of the time, they never saw meThey were just looking for what they wanted to seeThey've got the lot, that's what they want you to thinkRead between the lines, you'll see the missing linkBooks are easy backs for what they want to do to youBind you up in slavery for the privileged fewThey'll prove their lies with historySay "that's the way it always wasAccept the shit and slavery, be one of us"ChorusTried to get me with religion and with christSaid I'd get to heaven if I acted real niceThey were just preparing a crucifix for meA life of guilt, of sin, of pain, of holy miseryThey've got the lot, that's what they want you to thinkRead between the lines, you'll see the missing linkThe bible's just a blue print for their morality sceneJust another load of shit on how it's never beenThey stand there in the pulpit, doling out their liesOffering forgiveness, then they talk of eyes for eyes.ChorusTried to get me, but I won't be gotSay I'm a misfit, I say I'm notI never set out to profit from anotherThose smarmy bastards would steal from their motherThey've got the lot, that's what they want you to thinkRead between the lines, you'll see the missing linkPlundered and slaughtered in the name of truthAcceptance of normality is what they want from you as proofThey think they've got the answersBut there's something that they missTheir cup which overfloweth, is JUST FULL UP OF PISSChorus
