I don’t want to live in the Soviet Union
And I don’t want to live in nazi Germany
I don’t want anybody to tell me what to think
I want my thoughts and my words to be free
I want to be free to speak my mind
And I want to be free to be quiet
I don’t like dictatorship of any kind
Neither leftwing nor right
They are trying to divide us
They’ll try to make us fight each other
They’ll disunite the working class
Sister against sister brother against brother
I don’t want to be forced into a line
I don’t want to think like the crowd
I want to have the opinions that are mine
I know what I am and I’m proud
Do you believe in the shit they’re telling you?
Do you believe that every lie is true?
Do you believe that they have the solution?
Do you want to take part in their revolution?
I don’t.
I’m proud to be a working man
I am proud to work for my pay
I don’t like the hippies political stand
I don’t like society’s decay
I would not like a fascist or communist regime
Where a dictator rules as he pleases
Let us clean the punk movement of the extreme
political movement diseases
Do you believe in the shit they’re telling you?
Do you believe that every lie is true?
Do you believe that they have the solution?
Do you want to take part in their revolution?
I don’t.
I don’t want to live in the Soviet Union
And I don’t want to live in nazi Germany
I don’t want anybody to tell me what to think
I want my thoughts and my words to be free
I want to be free to speak my mind
And I want to be free to be quiet
I don’t like dictatorship of any kind
Neither leftwing nor right
