In the gutters of the walking ghosts
their dastard gambit wallow in tags
at once
its Clockwork Orange
then
its a Revolution
hold on
its Anti-Elitism
But No, no
its fighting a Chauvinist Pig
hold on
its a Power Struggle against the Rich
but again
its Solidarity with the Oppressed

Look, its anything as long as it buries the Truth
How can we state that Common thieves and gangsters
identified a quiet hardworking and decent couple
saw they had ties to some titled connections
we started extorting money from them on the sly
and when they stopped giving
we burgled them
then demanded more money or we do them in
they didn't pay up and had the audacity to stand up to us

Hey! we're criminals
we know how to lie, deny, twist, fabricate
and being constant visitors to Law Courts
we know Guilty or Innocent vies on Reasonable Doubts
we are Experts at muddying the waters and creating Doubts
We are the Mob with the mob working for us
we lie, we intimidate, we terrorize, we harass, we hound
we destroy reputations, we create doubts, we bribe
we erase the truth, we invalidate and cancel out
and we fool and deceive all

why do you think our favourite slang for dealing with our enemies
is.....Rub them out
Yeah, we are good at that, we rub out things and people

And if we wanna call hiding our downright guilt and crimes
by saying its a Political Republican Revolution
or The Art of Clockwork Orange
That's what we'll do, OK
