Lyrics:
Its commin through your letter box
A sheet for you to fill in
You know you have to do it
Cause you know you just can't win
Don't pay the poll tax
And the honeysuckle clutters up the vine
I really am a-fixin'
To go home and start a-mixin'
Down below that Mason-Dixon line
Oh, poll tax
How I love ya, how I
Can't pay tax
Won't pay tax
No poll tax
-'cause we're all skint
-We're on the dole
-'cause they don't care
-The future is grim
It's pretty simple,
to lose
Race hatred cannot stop us
This one thing we know
Your poll tax and Jim Crow
And greed has got to go
Youâ??re bound to lose
You fascists
to lose
You fascists bound to lose
Race hatred cannot stop us
This one thing we know
Your poll tax and Jim Crow
cnd greed has got to go
You're bound to lose
and (BROWN)
No where to be found
Poll tax on sheets, five days a week
Arrive in the lunchroom, I gotta get some sleep
But I didn't do it
(You did it)
I'm
HANGIN' IN THE SOUTHERN BREEZE.
3/5 HUMAN, SEGREGATION, POLL TAX,
& MASS INCARCERATION.
(Verse 4)
WOKE ABOUT CULTURAL APPROPRIATION, REDLINING,
politicians of note
Nor poll tax layer through which coloured can't vote
And there won't be no kinda colour lines
The Freedom Train will be yours
them at the game
Don't pay the poll tax, the headlines read
30 cops beaten, another one dead
The fight lasted on til the break of the night
bound to lose
Race hatred cannot stop us, this one thing I know
Poll tax and Jim Crow and greed have got to go
You're bound to lose
You fascists
thing we know
Your poll tax and Jim Crow and greed have got to go
You're bound to lose you fascists are bound to lose
All you fascists bound to lose
and (BROWN)
No where to be found
Poll tax on sheets, five days a week
Arrive in the lunchroom, I gotta get some sleep
But I didn't do it
(You did it)
I'm

(margaret
what's in your head
trying to shaft us with poll tax
we shaft you instead)
mikhail
when we are old
we'll remember the time
you came in from the cold
slowly gassin', frightnin', spooky
'Cause a frightnin' nightmare can terrorize, poll tax came and up went the rise
Open your eyes and realize I'm a truly
freeze to death in flats where damp streams down the walls
Poll tax bailiffs scream unheard in countless council halls
Plans for new development that never
the church and the new poll tax
I haven't got the pox, I've turned twenty-eight
My mate's thirty-one but he's dying from the plague
Life's a bitch right now
on “bake” and left the stove on overnight
American retro: The resurrection of pay phones and pay toilets, the poll tax
Prayer in schools and… the draft
José,
and day
So, cast your mind across the bare facts, people
The cost of living is depression and a poll tax
Do you wanna build (do you wanna build)
Gonna
The poll tax hangs above our heads, as Thatcher wields the axe
The budget, well that pleased us, our shares increased and less tax
The nurses,
long
Stick around and hear the tracks
And do not pay the stupid poll tax
Can't pay the poll tax
Could you
Your world is so small
As big as a postal code
Inside is desired
No thought is required
What if
You can't
Cope with
With
the past they created to Poll tax
Kills us like shark attacks
This is for the Descendents
The government helped us by creating three Amendments
We want to be
Barricade
(Mike de Jong/Jeff Pearce)
They sailed the proud white battleaxe
On a hero’s journey home
With poll tax dread and Chile’s dead
My heart
