Cockney Rejects – We can do anything (EMI, Zonophone Z6, 1980)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The might mighty Rejects! This was actualy the first record i bought of them, quickly followed by the other singles (Flares&Slippers! War on the terraces!). It is real, rough and with a snotty style – and it holds endless truth: WE CAN DO ANYTHING!<\/p>\n

So, let’s see:<\/p>\n

1977 \u2013 come on, who needs 1977 in 1980? OI!<\/em>
\npublished by a cool lable \u2013 that is Zonophone, an EMI outfit of T.REX fame revised as home of UK Street Punk, not realy cool. But was home for some cool stuff in the 80ies.<\/em>
\nfound in a cool shop \u2013 ticked, Konneckschen again.<\/em>
\ncatching sound \u2013 Mickey Geggus defined the a whole genre with his guitar, so YES!<\/em>
\nnot too bad words \u2013 this is how they felt – comming from the east end background they just felt they could do anything and right they where. for some time…<\/em>
\ncollectors value \u2013 do i fucking care?<\/em><\/p>\n

And did they give a fuck about the world outside? Rightfully not! As in their own words: “The world against the Rejects … and the world never stood a chance!<\/em>”<\/p>\n

So they say that we're on the way out\r\nThey say it's all just hype\r\nJust take a look of fear in their eyes\r\nCause it's the in thing to abuse us\r\nBehind our backs of course\r\nThey shroud the truth\r\nWith their own brand of lies\r\nBut we don't care what they say\r\nWe will never be put away\r\nCause we're all having the time of our lives\r\n\r\nCause we're gonna do just anything\r\nWe're gonna sing what we wanna sing\r\nand we'll wade through anything that you say\r\nWe're all having too much fun\r\nWe can't stop we've only just begun\r\nWe're gonna carry on for another day\r\n\r\nNow you keep giving us verbal\r\nWhen we're not around\r\nWhen we're there you don't utter a sound\r\nYou'd better stop it\r\nYou ain't getting nowhere\r\nand it's too easy to smash\r\nYou right into the ground\r\nRight into the ground\r\n\r\n(C) 1980 Cockney Rejects\r\n<\/pre>\n
