Jeffrey Lewis covering Crass' Big A Little A
Big A, little A, bouncing B
The system might have got you but it won't get me
1 - 2 - 3 - 4
External control are you gonna let them get you?
Do you wanna be a prisoner in the boundaries they set you?
You say you want to ba yourself, by christ do you think they'll let you?
They're out to get you get you get you get you get you get you get you
Hello, hello, hello, this is the Lord God, can you hear?
Hellfire and damnation's what I've got for you down there
On earth I have ambassadors, archbishop, vicar, pope
We'll blind you with morality, you'd best abandon any hope,
We're telling you you'd better pray cos you were born in sin
Right from the start we'll build a cell and then we'll lock you in
We sit in holy judgement condemning those that stray
We offer our forgiveness, but first we'll make you pay
External control are you gonna let them get you?
Do you wanna be a prisoner in the boundaries they set you?
You say you want to be yourself, by christ do you think they'll let you?
They're out to get you get you get you get you get you get you get you
Hello, hello, hello, now here's a massage from your queen
As figurehead of the status quo I set the social scene
I'm most concerned about my people, I want to give them peace
So I'm making sure they stay in line with my army and police
My prisons and my mental homes have ever open doors
For those amongst my subjects who dare to ask for more
Unruliness and disrespect are things I can't allow
So I'll see the peasants grovel if they refuse to bow
External control are you gonna let them get you?
Do you wanna be a prisoner in the boundaries they set you?
You say you want to be yourself, by christ do you think they'll let you?
They're out to get you get you get you get you get you get you get you
Introducing the Prime Sinister, she's a mother to us all
Like the dutch boy's finger in the dyke her arse is in the wall
Holding back the future waiting for the seas to part
If Moses did it with is faith, she'll do it with an army
Who at times of threatened crisis are certain to be there
Guarding national heritage no matter what or where
Palaces for kings and queens, mansions for the rich

The original crass tune was one of the most profound things I ever heard growing up, this version is equally good, sure it's different but no less diminishes from the sentiment expressed. And if it exposes more people to the message, so much the better! 9 years ago

It's been so long since I've felt the emotions this song brings up for me.If you look at history real carefully you'll find that Crass were *spot on* with these lyrics:"They've learnt the ropes In Ireland, engaged in civil warFighting for the ruling classes in their battle against the poorSo Ireland's just an island? It's an island of the mindGreat Britain? Future? Bollocks, you'd better look behind"They learned how to pit people against each other and subvert whole communities, as well as do battle with urban guerrillas. Ever since this period certain global powers got real sinister.10 years ago

As much as I want to hate this...I don't. Well done. It's just weird to hear no pain (or any other emotion) in their voices. Makes it seem unbelievable. But still...I approve of the message :-P11 years ago

Both of them did not meet to the usual societal standards of who should be singing. I was simply pointing out how Crass and Jeffrey are both shit, singing wise. Which emphasizes the tone and mood of the song, of course.11 years ago

I do also prefer the original but this is still a good version and I have enjoyed it and to be honest saying Crass did a better job of their own song is a long way off from negative.Well done and keep it up.Great taste in music too.11 years ago
