Jam - Going Underground lyrics

Album: Dig The New Breed (Live ´77-´82) (1982)

Some people might say my life´s in a rut,
But I am quite happy with what I got
People might say that I should strive for more,
But I am so happy I cannot see the point.
Smths happening here today
A show of strength with your boy´s brigade and,
I am so happy & you are so plain
You want more money - of course I do not mind
To buy nuclear textbooks for atomic crimes

And the public gets what the public wants
But I want nothing this society´s got -
I am going underground, (going underground)
Well the brass bands play & feet start to pound
Going underground, (going underground)
Well let the boys all sing & the boys all shout for tomorrow

Some people might get some pleasure out of hate
Me, I have enough already on my plate
People might need some tension to relax
Mem, I am too busy dodging between the flak

What you see is what you get
You have made your bed, you better lie in it
You choose your leaders & place your trust
As their lies wash you down & their promises rust
You will see kidney machines replaced by rockets & guns

And the public wants what the public gets
But I do not get what this society wants
I am going underground, (going underground)
Well the brass bands play & feet start to pound
Going underground, (going underground)
Well let the boys all sing & the boys all shout for tomorrow

We talk & talk till my head explodes
I turn on the news & my body froze
The braying sheep on my TV screen
Make this boy shout, make this boy scream!

Going underground, I am going underground!
