Complete Control

Lyrics

They said release 'Remote Control'
 But we didn't want it on the label
 They said, "Fly to Amsterdam"
 The people laughed, but the press went mad
 Ohh, oh, ohh, someone's really smart
 Ohh, oh, ohh, complete control, that's a laugh
 On the last tour, my mates they couldn't get in
 I'd open up the back door but they'd get run out again
 At every hotel, we was met by the law
 Come for the party, come to make sure
 Ohh, oh, ohh, have we done something wrong?
 Ohh, oh, ohh, complete control, even over this song
 You're my guitar hero!
 They said we'd be artistically free
 When we signed that bit of paper
 They meant let's make a lotsa money
 And worry about it later
 Ohh, oh, ohh, I'll never understand
 Ohh, oh, ohh, complete control, let me see your other hand
 I don't trust you, why should you trust me?
 —Huh?
 All over news, spread fast
 They're dirty, they're filthy
 They ain't a gonna last
 (Total) This is Joe Public speaking
 (C-O-N, Control)
 I'm controlled in the body
 I'm controlled in the mind
 (Total) This is punk rockers
 (C-O-N, Control)
 We're controlled in the price
 Of the hard drugs we must have to find
 Total C-O-N, Control
 Total (Parent! Control!)
 C-O-N, Control
 We've gotta?
 (C-O-N, Control)
 That means you
 I kick it, I fight it, I gotta get up at it
 (C-O-N, Control)
 I gotta kick it
