Gatecrash

Havoc in the city and the streets run red
Another young fighter’s lying dead
The fuckers shot him in the head
Like so many before
And I thought how his life could have been
And about the new world he might have seen
As I saw his corpse on the TV screen
Wake up this is war

Carlo is dead no more he’ll be with us kicking down their door

It’s the same old shit so many years
When we get stronger they get the fear
So now we see their face more clear
And a struggle lies ahead
Fascist cops ain’t got no shame
Their handlers never take the blame
But all they do is fan the flames
And panic as they spread

Carlo is dead no more he’ll be with us kicking down their door
Though they left him dead on the floor he’ll be with us kicking down their door

Smiling for cameras they raise a glass
To the privilege of the ruling class
But none of this was made to last
They’re headed for a fall
The tyrants feel their final hour
Large cracks appearing in the tower
Brick by brick destroy their power
The writing’s on the wall

Carlo is dead no more he’ll be with us kicking down their door
Though they left him dead on the floor he’ll be with us kicking down their door
Carlo is dead no more he’ll be with us kicking down their door
With all the ones they killed before he’ll be with us kicking down their door

Watching the mayhem in the streets below
Head in hands as the riots grow
Security seems quite upset
At what was once just a minor threat
There’s no hiding from all their crimes
They’ll never be safe all the time
And when the table’s finally overturned
Their stock exchanges will crash and burn

Carlo is dead no more he’ll be with us kicking down their door
With all the ones they killed before he’ll be with us kicking down their door
