Can you hear it?   Ear against the ground and you'll hear it   I can tell a change when I hear it      We are tigers   Kings of jungles   Trapped in cages   We forget we once were free!      And the average swain   Would be contented in his chains   Were it not for complainers like me      Throw the book   I'm up against it   Up against the rules   Bring the experts   Up against them   Up against the fools   Bring on city hall   I'm against them all      Lamp of freedom      No, you can't change   Human nature   Wheels of power   Keep revolving endlessly   With a fanatical faction   A charismatic attraction   There's a piece of that action for me      Call the press   I'm up against it   Up against the flacks   Bring the shrink   I'm up against it   Up against the quacks   Revenuers   Up against it   Up against the tax   Name some names   And I'm up against them   Bullies, big and small   I'm against them all      All we need is some vitality   Like an [...] individuality   But I guess they [...]   [...] make it all alone      Bring the girls   I'm up against them   I'm up against their lips   Bring the boys   I'm up against them   Up against their hips   Bring the priest   I'm up against him   Up against that cross   Bring the mob   I'm up against it   Up against the boss   Bring the cops   I'm up against it   Up against the jaw   Throw the book   I'm up against it   Up against the law      Politicians, all - I'm against them   Fascist lackies all against the wall      Fist of freedom   Guns of freedom      Bring the lackies   Up against it   Up against the wall   Bring the bishop   Up against it   Up against the wall   Bring the chairman   Up against it   Up against the wall   Put the general   Up against it   Up against the wall!
