I dont think Deeder and co. are endorsing Maoism, its being used as a metaphor for resistance ("Fighting for survival and equality"). Amazing lyrics. |

The early narative reference seems to remind me of 1984, and its name checked in the last verse. A song obviously calling people to arms. |

| Crass – The Greatest Working Class Rip Off Lyrics
| 16 years ago
|
I love this song, probably one of my favourites particularly the ranty verse at the end.
In terms of content its a swipe at the workerism of the Oi! movement, which however sincere morphed into something else. Id take issue with MrGoodBar and skunkbythebrook, Crass however amazing they were in terms of praxis and dissenting, had really naff class politics and they're politics was too personal and lifestyle based for my liking, to say nothing of all peace/hippie stuff. You can gleam this from songs like "White Punks On Hope" and the line "Beat the system, beat its rule/ Ain't got no class, I ain't a fool" |
