Oi Lyrics

1.By the ancient laws of combat



Years go by

brothers they die, with war and rumors of war

crucified, but i'll get by

because theyll never desecrate this core

and so we stand, weapons in hand

eye to eye with our destiny

the only blood that'll spill today

will be that of my enemy



"by the ancient laws of combat

we choose this sacred ground"

to live, to fight , to die

and by the ancient laws of combat

and from every city and town

may they hear our battle cry



and never forget , whove come and went

those who gave their precious lives

united we'll defeat our evil foe

and may we never divide



will we give this land to foriegn souls

after all that we've achieved

will you denounce and soon forget

what you trust and what you believe



2. Jakes a skin:



He left town a few years ago

where he's been nobody knows

oh my my how the boy has changed

now his whole life is rearranged



No more slackin' off for jake

he's got bills to pay and money to make

switched his sneakers for some ol' steel toes

now hes bashin heads at the local shows



"jakes a skin jakes a skin

aint no tellin where the fuck hes been

jakes a skin jakes a skin

aint no tellin where the fuck hes been



he kicked his college slut to the curb

now hes got him a skinhead byrd

patched up alpha and levi jeans

lookin real sharp, jakes lookin mean



got skinhead tatted across his fist

no more spiked bracelets around his wrists

pressed ben sherman, to grinder boots

when he aint in his sta-press suit



3.Example Outta You

i got no time for the politics

i myself got work to do

you preach about responsibility

but then ask me for a dollar or two

and for a short moment i recollect

the hard hours labored all day long

just so i can keep food on the table

can you see where your in the wrong

i could turn my back and walk away

dont give a shit to what you say

but my tolerance is being worn down

when your in my face every day



"think im gonna make example outta you"

"i dont give a fuck about the boys in blue"

"if your friends join in, well i'll do them too"

"yeah im gonna make an example outta you"



i believe in constitutional rights

and its a shame anytiem theyre lost

but when you start to burning the stare and stripes

then thats when the lines are crossed

to think about all the boys who've passed on

to you give you the rights youve got

all the blood thats been shed, all the lives been lost

all the battles thatve been fought

so call me violent, call me right wing

call me a violater to your rights

because if you get in my face again

you might as well say goodnight





4.Gettin' Out Tonight

we dont have nowhere to go

after the whistles blow

so we're gonna hit the streets tonight

fuck off with laying low

we've been working the week away

break our backs for honest pay

we aint the sharpest looking boys in this town

but who gives a fuck what you say



"cause the boys are getting out tonight

"we're gonna paint this fucker red

"get drunk and get in a fight

"but you know we'd take some bovver instead"



soon enough monday will arrive

and we'll return to our working lives

but if it werent for friday and saturday night

i dont know if i'd survive
