Down the pub it seemed so quiet
But on the streets there was a riot
Coppers came and arrested us
Shut us in and beat us up

What the hell is going on?
We didn´t do nothing wrong
All of us failed to see
What the sentence´s gonna be
Out on Parole

Next day they put us on trial
Classified us as being vile
Forced us to pay a penalty
And gave us our ticket to leave

We will never fade away
Punks and Skins are always here to stay
We´re ruthless, loud and proud
Open your mouth and shout it out
Our voice resounds on the street
Keep the alliance in your heart
Don´t let our union fall apart
Coherence is all we need

We´ll be walking on

We will stand together one by one
Drinking beer and having lots of fun
Having a laugh every day
No one can stand in our way
Fight for your freedom again and again
We ain´t no fashion scene
No freak show on Halloween
The true spirit will remain

Come on and feel the atmosphere
A new breed is coming near
Another year is passing by
Let the music take a hold
Enjoy the bands, young and old
The love of oi! will never die

Go to the dirty block to satisfy your needs
Pedestrians turn around when she walks the streets
Dressed up in high heels and a leather bound
The dirty block downtown is her stomping ground

Dirty block, dirty block – she is never in a rut
Dirty block, dirty block – they call her a dirty slut
Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey

Enter the secret place of total lust and fear
Feel your adrenalin when she´s coming near
Everyone thinks that she is just a stupid whore
But when she´s done with you – you cry for more

See the con man down the street
All he wants is your defeat
Three small cups, a carpet and a ball
Is what he needs to fool us all
See spectators stopping by
Make your game, the stakes are high
He rushes you to try your luck
Win it all, make a fast buck
If you think you make some profit, you ain´t got a clue
Place a bet I guarantee he´s outmanoeuvring you

Double-Dealer, Double-Dealer
in a world of make-believe
only here to deceive
keep your eyes on the ball
he always wins, you lose it all

His complice win once in a while
They have a finger in the pie
They hoax you and make you think
That you have a chance to win
The game is over, you are broke
No fair play, what a joke
See the cheater walk away
Some day you gonna pay
Got his mates to back him up when things are getting too hot
The coppers try to run him in but he´s gone like a shot

Here comes the biggest bloke
Well drunk and full of coke
Checking out his territory
You bet he´s gonna start some trouble
Somebody has to pay
Better get out of his way
When he starts to mess with you
There´s nothing in the world you can do

You can see it from his eyes
There´s no more brain left inside
You can see it from his eyes
He´s just another moron
You can see it from his eyes
There´s gonna be some fight tonight
You can see it from his eyes
He´s just another moron

Here comes the stupid git
Hostile and full of shit
He starts to pick on you
There´s nothing in the world you can do
Grab a chair and smash his head
Can´t wait until he´s dead
But the bloke stands up again
As if nothing ever happened to him

When we were young – everything had to be our way
Struggling for a better life, we always kept our faith
We were so young – we´ve been through trouble and strife
But getting older doesn´t mean that we will change our way of life

Branded and rejected – we´re outcasts for all time
Hopelessly infected – once you´ve stepped out of line
Let´s shout out together – we stay young in our hearts
Strong and proud forever

When we were young – we were so keen and smart
Ruthless in our minds, frantic in our hearts
We were so young – we knew our places
Unity and loyalty were no empty phrases

Staying at home
Boredom catches me
No game to play
Nothing´s on TV
Goodbye sweet home
Here´s my parting kiss
No lame excuse
We go on the piss

Let´s go out and have some fun
We´re gonna rock this town tonight
Leisure time, all work is done
We´re gonna rock this town tonight
Take your buddies to the pub
We´re gonna rock this town tonight
Gonna drink until we drop
We´re gonna rock this town tonight

Pop stars on MTV
Brainwashed society
All music sounds the same and no one´s got a clue
Entertainment is so dumb
Audiences blind and numb
They swallow everything the media tell them to

We don´t want your pop star shit
We don´t wanna be part of it
Plastic rhythm everyday
No way!

Listen up, girls and boys – Combat 77
Here´s our call and here´s our noise – Combat 77
Disco pop, what a hype – Combat 77
Rebel music never dies – Combat 77

Oi! Oi! Oi!

Lined up in a queue
They have nothing else to do
Than trying to sell their souls for a one time hit
All want to participate
In this stupid pop parade
Become so special but their minds are full of shit

Floor your bottle, time to roam
Too lazy to walk back home
Start the engine, get inside
Coppers stop me, what a night

They´re asking me if I´m a chancer
I guess they won´t take no for an answer
There´s no way to make excuses
Cos now it´s time to pay for my cruises

Lost my license for a while
Had to rethink my driving style
Showed remorse as best I can
But next time I will do it again

Have a look around today
Factories are closing down
Layoffs are omnipresent
Unemployment all over town
Workpeople can pack their traps
Big bosses get their way
They set up their factories somewhere else
But you are screwed at the end of the day

Fight for your right to work
Keep our jobs secure – Don´t take them out of town
Fight for your right to work
Wake up and take a stand – Don´t let the bosses grind you down

Promises of a better world
Government has led us astray
Claiming to have no money left
Say goodbye to your retirement pay
They suck you out and chuck you away
Our future is at stake
Politicians don´t stop lying
Unemployment figures: what a fake

Trouble – on the terraces
Rivalry – aggravated risk
Lurking – wolves on the hunt
Hungry – fighting just for fun

Ruckus outside on the street
Tension rises, feel the heat
Join the mob or get out while you can
Agitation, break a neck
No excuse, no turning back
Weekend warriors on the prowl again

Showing – your own bravery
Counter attack – last opportunity
Quietness – before the storm
A blow on the head – you know who has won

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
I don’t wanna be a number, Just like being a prisoner
I just wanna stay free, Don’t wanna be a number three
O I don’t wanna be a 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
Signing on the dot, Got my name on a form
Thought I had it made, They treat you just insane
oh i dont wanna be no 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
You are just a number, And I ain’t got a name
You are just a number, And I ain’t got a name
Sitting in a prison cell, Numbers on my chest
Age is just a number, Mummy does know best
oh i dont wanna be no 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
You are just a number, And I ain’t got a name
You are just a number, And I ain’t got a name
I don’t wanna be a number, Just like being a prisoner
I just wanna stay free, Don’t wanna be a number three
O I don’t wanna be a 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
You are just a number, And I ain’t got a name
You are just a number, And I ain’t got a name
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

Bored to death with their politics
They are looking for new kicks
Spreading rumours about us all the time
Paranoid overdose
They don´t want us at their shows
Shouting Oi! together is supposed to be a crime

Fuck off, Fuck off Oi! Free Youth
Up your Ass!

Prejudiced and full of fear
They just have no idea
What the whole Oi! thing is about
Just grow up and get a life
Stop creating a world of strife
Meanwhile – we shout out loud

Fuck off, Fuck off Oi! Free Youth
Up your Ass!
