The Raincoats
Overheard
Stopped by the postponement
Of support from the mass
For armed resistance
Against the state my love

Watch enterprise as its freely shattering
Watch enterprise as its freely shattering

Don’t rock, don’t shove, don’t rock
Don’t rock, don’t shove, don’t rock
Don’t shove, don’t rock

Head on a plate
I’m cracked biro casing
Small knife side plate
I’d spill over the edge
Laid in wait
Unlikely smile or scream
Laid in wait
Tail showing underneath the curtain

While waiting the conflict of interest
To ignite labor
To act upon the gap between
The three piece suite
Lustless see the wholesale distribute
Lustless see the wholesale distribute
Don’t chafe, don’t beat, don’t chafe
Don’t chafe, don’t beat, don’t chafe
Don’t beat, don’t chafe

Laid in state
I’d rant over the discrete [?]
Stubbed out on plate
(Rip it up, out of rhythm)
Rip it up, out of rhythm
(Chip the plate)
I’ll get explosive with the discerning
(Smash the state)
Wrong foot in the armhole

Until condemnation from the street/public/man
As rulers criminalize, then murder some
Who still protest, who still protest

For the ones they are in darkness
Others are in light
And we see the ones in lightness
Those in darkness drop from sight
