Lyrics for We are the Clash

Punk rockers, hip hoppers Pill poppers, show stoppers Be boppers, hair droppers Are you ready to sing? Right wing, left wing I want something To see me through the siege About what you think We ain't gonna be treated like trash We got one thing: We are The Clash! - what? We are The Clash! - louder! Let's strike a match, you can spill the gas! With my guitar now [...] stance I've seen them when they'd beat upon How the injuries stay Beating on your drum Did they tell them 'take it in' Got the nervous sort of feeling Where the fat boy blew We ain't gonna be treated like trash We got one thing: We are The Clash! We are The Clash! Let's strike a match, you can spill the gas! - Gasoline! Home fires burning In motorcycle city The Rocking God will choose If I'm being released (rock, rock, Clash city rockers!) The first [...] In jail at 46 And there ain't no [...] To give and take respect We ain't gonna be treated like trash We got one thing: We are The Clash! - Don't take no shit We are The Clash! - Do you hear me? Let's strike a match, you can spill the gas!
