Darkhaired dangerous schoolkids
Vicious, suspicious sixteen
Jet-black blazers at the bus stop
Sullen, unhealthy and mean
Teenage guerillas on the tarmac
Fighting in the middle of the road
Supercharged FS1Es on the asphalt
The kids are coming in from the cold
Look out, listen can you hear it
Panic in the County Hall
Look out, listen can you hear it
Whitehall (got us) up against a wall
Up against the wall...
High wire fencing on the playground
High rise housing all around
High rise prices on the high street
High time to pull it all down
White boys kicking in a window
Straight girls watching where they gone
Never trust a copper in a crime car
Just whose side are you on?
Look out, listen can you hear it
Panic in the County Hall
Look out, listen can you hear it
Whitehall (got us) up against a wall
Up against the wall...
Consternation in Brixton
Rioting in Notting Hill Gate
Fascists marching on the high street
Carving up the welfare state
Operator get me the hotline
Father can you hear me at all?
Telephone kiosk out of order
Spraycan writing on the wall
Look out, listen can you hear it
Panic in the County Hall
Look out, listen can you hear it
Whitehall got us up against a wall
Up against the wall...

Terzo singolo della band londinese TRB, poi incluso nel celebre album d’esordio “Power in the Darkness”
Voglio dedicare questo brano a tutti gli studenti che oggi, ancora una volta, a decine di migliaia, scenderanno nelle strade per dire NO al disegno di legge S.1905, la cosiddetta “riforma Gelmini”, in realtà una contro-riforma fascio-liberista che vorrebbe – “senza oneri per lo Stato”, cioè tagliando ferocemente i finanziamenti pubblici agli atenei - consegnare le Università nelle mani degli imprenditori privati, ridurre drasticamente l’offerta formativa in base alle richieste del mercato, istituzionalizzare la precarizzazione dei ricercatori ed azzerare le rappresentanze studentesche….
Quindi, in bocca al lupo a tutti i “protestanti”, “pericolosi scolari dai capelli scuri, violenti e diffidenti sedicenni tutti vestiti di nero alle fermate dei bus, cupi, insani e cattivi. Guerriglia di adolescenti sull’asfalto, combattendo in mezzo alla strada. Motociclette elaborate, i ragazzi stanno arrivando dal freddo, stanno uscendo dall’indifferenza… Attenzione! Ascoltate! Non lo sentite? Il governo è nel panico e vuole sbatterci al muro… Ribelliamoci!”
