The Clampdown reedit, a Politics fanfic

The Clampdown is being stuck in a position beyond your control.

This could be work related or about living surroundings, and other apathetic conformities.

Ask members of the clash or their fans. I have fully quoting the Clash with inverted commas, the words that follow in bold are mine.

The CLAMPDOWN

Walking round this Grove dodging fresh gummy-sticky, you don’t give me look.,

-"I'm not working for the clampdown!"

Waiting for his message though I am not holding a book

- "I'm not working for the clampdown!!"

To give all that I am, all that I have

- "When we're working for the clampdown!"

To come up back down, come back around

- "I'm not working for the clampdown!"

I said today is the day that I gonna make something change

-"You're working for the clampdown!"

Two-days to the day I shed my old skin away

- "When we're working for the clampdown!"

Say Wake-up and find

- "To be young believers"

Resist the grind

- "To the young believers"

Say gonna make some change

- "To be young believers"

Say Expand the range

- "To the young believers"

- "I'm not working for the clampdown!"

-"To the young believers"

To give all that I did what you have rid

- "I'm not working for the clampdown!"

You give all that you live all that it is

-"When we're working for the clampdown!"

I’ll sit and scrape of the stickies

Burn through my rubber shoe-sticky

Got blisters in my soles

Blisters pierced my sole

Miles and miles in files and lines waiting for that message

Not holding a book, I’ll Take a ride and instead and have my own look

-"To the young believers"

“In these days of evil presidentes
Working for the clampdown
But lately one or two has fully paid their due
For working for the clampdown”

But ha! Gitalong! Gitalong!
