Big A Little a
Big A, little A, bouncing B
The system might have got you but it won't get me
1 - 2 - 3 - 4
External control are you gonna let them get you?
Do you wanna be a prisoner in the boundaries they set you?
You say you want to ba yourself, by christ do you think they'll let you?
They're out to get you get you get you get you get you get you get you
Hello, hello, hello, this is the Lord God, can you hear?
Hellfire and damnation's what I've got for you down there
On earth I have ambassadors, archbishop, vicar, pope
We'll blind you with morality, you'd best abandon any hope,
We're telling you you'd better pray cos you were born in sin
Right from the start we'll build a cell and then we'll lock you in
We sit in holy judgement condemning those that stray
We offer our forgiveness, but first we'll make you pay
External control are you gonna let them get you?
Do you wanna be a prisoner in the boundaries they set you?
You say you want to be yourself, by christ do you think they'll let you?
They're out to get you get you get you get you get you get you get you
Hello, hello, hello, now here's a massage from your queen
As figurehead of the status quo I set the social scene
I'm most concerned about my people, I want to give them peace
So I'm making sure they stay in line with my army and police
My prisons and my mental homes have ever open doors
For those amongst my subjects who dare to ask for more
Unruliness and disrespect are things I can't allow
So I'll see the peasants grovel if they refuse to bow
External control are you gonna let them get you?
Do you wanna be a prisoner in the boundaries they set you?
You say you want to be yourself, by christ do you think they'll let you?
They're out to get you get you get you get you get you get you get you
Introducing the Prime Sinister, she's a mother to us all
Like the dutch boy's finger in the dyke her arse is in the wall
Holding back the future waiting for the seas to part
If Moses did it with is faith, she'll do it with an army
Who at times of threatened crisis are certain to be there
Guarding national heritage no matter what or where
Palaces for kings and queens, mansions for the rich
Protection for the wealthy, defence of privilege
They've learnt the ropes In Ireland, engaged in civil war
Fighting for the ruling classes in their battle against the poor
So Ireland's just an island? It's an island of the mind
Great Britain? Future? Bollocks, you'd better look behind
Round every other corner stands P.C. 1984
Guardian of the future, he'll implement the law
He's there as a grim reminder that no matter what you do
Big brothers system's always there with his beady eyes on you
From God to local bobby, in home and street and school
They've got your name and number while you've just got their rule
We've got to look for methods to undermine those powers
It's time to change the tables. The future must be ours
Big A, little A, bouncing B
The system might have got you but it won't get me
Be exactly who you want to be, do what you want to do
I am he and she is she but you're the only you
No one else has got your eyes, can see the things you see
It's up to you to change your life and my life's up to me
The problems that you suffer from are problems that you make
The shit we have to climb through is the shit we choose to take
If you don't like the life you live, change it now it's yours
Nothing has effects if you don't recognise the cause
If the programme's not the one you want, get up, turn off the set
It's only you that can decide what life you're gonna get
If you don't like religion you can be the antichrist
If your tired of politics you can be an anarchist
But no one ever changed the church by pulling down a steeple
And you'll never change the system by bombing number ten
Systems just aren't made of bricks they're mostly made of people
You may send them into hiding, but they'll be back again
If you don't like the rules they make, refuse to play their game
If you don't want to be a number, don't give them your name
If you don't want to be caught out, refuse to hear their question
Silence is a virtue, use it for your own protection
They'll try to make you play their game, refuse to show your face
If you don't want to be beaten down, refuse to join their race
Be exactly who you want to be, do what you want to do
I am he and she is she but you're they only you
When I was a punk in the 80s, I believed in peace, tolerance, understanding, compassion, free thinking, etc. Forty years on, people call me a hippy. I naively thought these values were universal, but, as Crass noted, you can't escape labels, unless you declare yourself a member of the human race and everyone is your brother and sister (which doesn't mean you have to like them!)
Crass and anarcho punks were hippie influenced.
Yes, you sound nice !
“ when a was a punk in the 80’s we were ramming nappie pins through ear’s, cheeks, lips & so on for fun!! aswell the odd glue bag, 😮 but that was the 80’s, then them little love doves, mitsis & rhubarb & custard’s changed everything in the 90’s🎉🎉 a wouldn’t change a thing it’s been a proper blast. but always come back to the punk music it’s part of my soul 😆😆🥃🥃💊💊🥂👍
Well said.
Beautiful true comment.. much stuff as I say " yeah me too"
🧐🆘🇬🇧💯😍🤞👍🔚
best anarcho-punk band EVER! Listen to the message. Read the lyrics. Educate thyself. Protest. Be active. Fucking do something! That's punk rock!
ian conlan oi oi oi
Johann Schmidt For anarchists the end goal is pacifism, however, they do understand that violence is necessary to dismantle capitalism as it can't be done through reforms, as much as they'd like it to be.
Johann Schmidt That is true, I was an anarcho-pacifist at one stage but I grew highly skeptical that the capitalists and the state would peacefully and voluntarily give their power up to the people. I also witnessed the state's incredible use of violence against peaceful protesters who were protesting on private property (such as in Dakota) and to me that solidified that the state was not willing to be peaceful therefore in order to fight it we can't be either. I only believe in violence as a means of self defense and if you have a system like capitalism that constantly exploits and oppresses millions of people we must defend ourselves from that, violently if necessary.
helicopter rides for commies
Illegally plant trees. Most punk rock shit I've ever seen. ruclips.net/video/vvtqKMxZ95s/видео.html
oh my god why is this the first time i've listened to crass
hopefully not the last
my guess is you're young. congratulations man, crass is the best
+Joseph Bowman not the last for sure, been liking loads of anarcho-punk ish bands lately, might have to go further down the rabbit hole
+INeed333Quid lol ye what a beautiful rabbit hole it is
+INeed333Quid Think people are fed up with Rich People's Politics...
I am 57 and I grew up on this type of music and it's more relevant now than ever before.
me too
And me (all 3 points)
65..genx ..same
Millennial punk here, I'm glad I was born and still listen to old schools (and new school )punk
60 next month !
Bought this record when I was 16 … this song made me into the man I became …
They say music doesn’t affect the mindset of young listeners …. That’s straight bullshit.
Thank you CRASS for this lyrical masterpiece
The 2nd part of this track is changing my life as we speak
Who said that? I thought everyone said the opposite and that young people often get drawn into teen culture such as punk.
It continues to change my life.
Can't say I've ever heard people say that? In fact I argue the opposite.
Agreed and wished I got more into this at a younger age than a lot of the woe is me bullshit.
my daughter is 14 and getting into this and I love it, it's exactly where I was at her age..
I have a 14 year old son that is in to them too. We have gone to punk gigs together and when its an all ages gig and my band plays he is my roadie!
I was 13 or so when I found crass. Still one of my favorite bands
@@dirtydave2691 that's awesome
@@dirtydave2691 THIS IS SO WHOLESOME
AW
2023 and still here! This is not a just song, but a piece of soul of every very punk-rocker!
it doesnt matter who you vote for. the government always wins
swampdodger this
swampdodger Those that control the govt will be damned before they let YOU vote away their control
From a soapdodger to a swampdodger let me say that not voting helps with this particular con-un-drum. Also the abstract concept of "winning" just don't fit. Whining mebbe. Yeah waddabout "It don't matter wot you vote for the plotitians always whine" Better? Anarky n Peas.
If it changed much they wouldn't let us take part in it
and voting is a sham,it's all pre-ordained.
At 58, I still remember listening to them at 16. Thankfully, this Band is still a part of who I am today.
As a millennial punk,I'm glad to hear this
40 soon and this was the soundtrack to my youth. Punks not dead 🙌🏻
Nope I'm 59 from Hammersmith and was into the punk and Oi scene ( was a left wing Skinhead) see Crass 😅 plenty of times.. most of their following upper class middle class so were they just wanted to upset Mummy and Daddy!! Shower o
Same mate, I saw them and Poison Girls at the Plaza Ballroom in Glasgow around 1980, there was a fountain in the centre of the ballroom, haha. Glasgow, back then, was pretty wild, and the gig didn't disappoint! It was a crazy night with punks, skinheads, anarchists and Evo Stik. (what could go wrong, eh? lol) There was a strong police presence there and for some reason during their playing, the power was turned off to the stage, and we got swarmed with the bizzies (Police) and escorted out! The crowd were a wee bit mental if I'm honest, there was like a wee bit of naughtiness going on, lol Crass were amazing! Definitely a gig I'll never forget!
I saw them play Digbeth, Birmingham in '81 when I was 16, supported by Flux of pink indians. Great times!
"The problems that you suffer from are problems that YOU make!"
"The shit we have to climb through is the shit WE choose to take!"
always liked those lines
Simply not true though in the case of most people who are truly 'in the shit'
Changes fuck all
It's time to change the tables...the future must be ours
Everything Tim Roth has done is gold. Quite looking for movies
@@wonkylommiter6364 Those people still make it, your stance does not view the individual as powerful enough to overcome hardship.
Im 57yr old still got my Crass tattoos, followed Conflict at the time good old days
phil uk well of course you still have your tats dude ha
phil uk Damn, you're a punk from the glory days, mad respect ✊🅰️😈
I'm 7 years behind you pal and still bare the Tattoo proudly on my Forearm, a Diy piece I did back at school with Indian ink. Priceless 😢
Im only 47. Still love my punkrock. Fuck the system fuck the trends, its me n my snotrag till the end! Snotrag snotrag, black and white! Snotrag snotrag anarchy rite! S/r , s/R , two tone unity! Fuck con fucken formity!Snot Rag!
You absolute rebel
"Be exactly who you want to be, do what you want to do." I sing this verse to my 10 month-old child all the time. It's great life advice. This aging punk rocker still has it
I think this is possibly Crass's most positive message.
That is punk for you
yes and bata motel
TRUMP 2020, I agree. Anti-establishment rekts the market.
Is that a Richter scale measurement of your body gas abilities? Somewhat better than your Spammar or Grelling. US@ US@ US@.
This song should replace all bibles
Remember kids that the act of Questioning Authority does not make someone your enemy. It’s actually one of your main jobs. If someone has questions that does not make them your enemy, it makes they an ally.
True that
if these lyrics we're wrote by U2 everyone in the music industry would call it an all time classic,as they are wrote by crass its only a minority of us who know its an all time classic,the words are as relevant now as they were back then
If it was written *now* It'll be called "Fascist Far Right"
You too?
@@mr.jamster8414huh? You a CIA agent provocateur?
@@paulvanreesch2493 Yes, and we're sending 200 men to your front door right this instant for figuring that out.
Oh ..please don't mention gonzo,as john c.clarke ,may have or not called him.
I got this ALBUM when I was 13. I lost it to the Camp Fire Nov.8, 2018. Now at 46yrs old I love this song and Crass more than ever before!
Punk is still alive & strong, you just won't hear it on the radio.
My Pa played this to me as a kid and sang the lyrics from to me from 3.30. Years on, I'm not such a punk but these lyrics stay with me and give me strength. Thanks dad! x
BLESS. I did the same for my lad. Hes not a punk either, but hes off to Uni soon which makes me equally as chuffed as him knowing this off by heart, as well as Civilisation Street by Culture Shock. Its down to you lot now!!!
The words are a lesson not a rant, one learns or closes their minds. Silence is a virtue use it for your own protection are words that have stayed with me forever and I’m 56 saw Crass 6 times in their day
Lucky I had a metalhead dad so I grew up with lyrics about Satan and murdering people in creative ways lmao no wonder I have such a dark sense of humor. I ended up marrying a punk though so I love both types of music.
Your old man knew .
Thanks to all of you for your kind comments
This music has a soul & a rawness to it you rarely find today 🤨especially in the mainstream
Got this at 14, my third punk lp, and was Immediately captivated by the poster lp covers filled with dense lyrics that revealed the secrets of living right. Don't worry about what other think, it's your life not theirs and you don't have a spare.These guys and gals lived what they sang about and still do till this day. I tried to remember that being a punk brought me a life I'm glad I didn't miss out on.And I am now a 50 year old punk still enjoying the truth, the anger, and the insane bands I still see and we've gotten old together, but no fool trying to make us act our age is going to waste my time again. I Crack up seeing people say I Used to be Punk. If you gave up, you weren't one to begin with. Hope I get another 37 years to enjoy punk rock music.
44 years later and Im still listening to Crass :)
Me too. I am 59

Unbelievable how good this sounds, 30 odd years after I first heard it.
Makes the "edgey" stuff of today sound feeble.
This song has been my life motto for over 20 years. It really has everything: "If you don't like the life you live, change it now, it's yours. Nothing has effect if you don't recognize the cause."
are you a midlr class twat
The queen will soon be the longest reigning monarch-I am not looking forward to the endless press coverage telling us all how 'wonderful' she is...
Can't say I noticed but then WTF is a "press" and do I want one or some? Telly became reduntant and pointless a while back and so few people buy actual "paper" papers that they are now designed to be quickly recycled into pulp for the next lot of er..... pulp. (IMHPNO)* The folks who lose money from the people turning away from old methods of media have to maintain the lie that its still relevant.

this song is more relevant now than ever
Whole lot more after you comment this lmao
@@mr.jamster8414 And more
In the 80s i liked this to skate to when skateboarding was banned in newquay Cornwall,,the heart of uk surfing,, in 2023 i was able to look up the words ,,, now i love the song like a mission statement. X
I was sort of a punk as a child, but even though I'm 47, I only heard of this song a couple of years ago.
It's one hell of an anthem, along with a fair amount of extremely useful philosophical advice.
When everything got closed down, I liked to blast this in my way to the beach.... It was totally blocked off for a while, but simply a roadblock to my ultimate destination.
I learned then how to trespass, and began to understand that ridiculous rules are simply not worth observing.
Hanging out at the beach is for fools... I need to be in the ocean!
I love the fact Steve Ignorant is a Life Boatman up the road from where I live . Fucking love Crass at 52
the best lyrics in any song ive heard,simple as that....timeless
are you a pratt
Every time I listen to this it recentres me. Nothing gives me hope like this song
the fact that 106 people dislike this just proves that 106 don't understand how the real world works
luckie lydo explain...nothing is under control
paul muldoon Read animal farm or something, hell I don't know. Seek some actual enlightenment and if you still think the same at least ignorance is bliss in theory.
How does the "real world" work?
yep.
its not only crass who changed my way of thinking but also YOU by spending your time and thoughts to make a video like this one. a very sincere thank you anarchoalan! ANARCHY AND PEACE!
Funny how no one commented how this song is basically a summary of Anarchism and Other Essays by Ema Goldman.
God (Dominion of the mind) The Queen and her property (Dominion of Man and his needs), and Thatcher (Dominion of man and his conduct, the government serves to protect property).
No its not
Haven't heard Crass is YEARS. Long time ago, I had a friend in Texas who sent me some great tapes. Crass was in there somewhere. The bass is awesome. I miss you Ernie. .... Ernie De La Rosa. I miss you man. Thank you. I hope you are doing well. I will never forget....

What! 16 "dislikes" - how can anyone not like this track?!?!? One of the best punk songs of all time!
I'm an old f****** punk, I know one thing there is some truth to this. You don't need systems, or religion. You need Jesus. The relationship is more important than the dogma.
Been couple years since I listened to this it's more relevant in today's time then ever

Best punk song. Ever.
One of the best songs of all time in ANY genre
2024 and you still only need to change a couple of words.
The lyrics still hit the spot 44 years on from Bloody Revolution... cover version/remix anyone?
what ever happened to punk like this it makes me sad that people consider sleeping with sirens punk now
I got told the other day bunch a bunch of emo freaks that punk is emo ..
+OrganizedMessOffical that's just terrible
+OrganizedMessOffical emo is punk because it's a subgenre of punk. so, emo is punk but punk isn't emo. calling something/someone punk is an extremely broad statement
+Lana Pettersen I'm not trying to be rude but punk isn't a genre.. It's a lifestyle. There's no such thing as a sub genre of punk because of my reason above...it's a way of life man.
+inappropriate screen name lol I just read your comment again,are you being sarcastic,it's hard to notice because it's RUclips hahaha.
Crass are the best and most intelligent band.
We started telling this story in the 60s; people said we were daft. By the 80s they thought we'd taken too many drugs and in the 90s they forgot we'd even existed. Now post-Snowden (bless his soul), y'all starting to listen. Just don't fucking go back to sleep, please. Many of us won't be here much longer and it's up to your gen to fight the good fight.
True. luckily many of our Children grew up with Crass , Linton Kwesi Johnsnon, Culture Shock, Stories of the Convoy, Sea Shephards, Hopi Legends, Free Festivals n Parties, Wally Hope, The Rainbow Circle, Green Anarchist + cautionary tales of who and what to trust,. Our horror over unbelievable acts of opression we witnessed, lies the media were strongarmed into telling (Back when even the gutterpress was still shocked by coppers hitting innocents)
Anarchy and Peace fellow human.
{For the "anarchists" who argue that the 2 are mutually exclusive I offer you the above and below.}
Considering how feared Crass were by Snatcher and her thugs they've left a pretty positive set of ripples..
Mid 30s here, Crass saved my life and shaped my politics to this day after listening to them throughout highschool
I listen to this at least weekly. from 14-44.
I am 300 so it only came around after my 250s but I still dig it!
i honestly think CRASS met Up with the DEVIL @ the CROSSROADS , & on that GLORIOUS DAY , This Happened ?? 😷 😷👀👀
In my opinion , this Song is ( by FaR ) the Best AnArcho-Punk Song EVER ( maybe this song is THE BEST Punk Song ever WRITTEN !!!??? ) 😷👀
This or Bloody Revolutions (also by Crass).
@@grumpygrandpagaming1975 every word to big A little a fits , it all comes together , therrs no better song 2 get barred from the local disco wen i was 16 " Happy Dsys "
Crass' lyrics are timeless. I'm 21 and have been listening for about 4 or 5 years - a band my dad also listened to at my age, and continues to. People suggest they 'preach to the converted' but I was far from, and of course alongside many other influences they have had a distinct imprint on my worldview, including a very strong belief in peaceful yet radical disobedience, feminism, nuclear disarmament (at least here in Australia - stopping the expansion of nuclear-powered programs), a dis-empowering of oppressive religious structures and more. And have instilled a lifelong fascination and passion of the communication of these ideals through art such as music, grafitti and art, in sometimes illegal contexts. Thank you Crass.
We need these kind of bands back to save music
You need to listen to more music! Gold is hard to find but it out there.
@@cowsagainstcapitalism347 You’re probably right
The idles 👍
55 still alive .ive had labels got some by choice .
Its our generation thats still got memorys of freedom .
Who's still standing ???
Nothing beats their lyrical content. That is what made me love this band when I first heard them in 1979. Brilliant.
Me too heard em first on john peel
I missed Steve at Rebellion this year because I was drunk in a local bar in Blackpool with a bunch of other punks.
PUNKS NOT DEAD ❤
listening to crass made me the person i am today. and i`m fucking proud of the kind of person i have become through not following the bullshit of others
My favorite Crass song! I got my first Crass tattoo when i was 16 in NYC, my friends and i all "forgot our ids" and the place on st marks place said to come back at 2 am. Not shady at all...
Lately ive been coming back to Crass, interesting because ive become a folk music listening, organic vegetable farmer in the last 15 years... but maybe not so crazy when i think that a few members started Dial house and are doing the same thing.
Never forget my old school mate John (OU) brought this into school (Edmonton County 1982). Still mates.2016. Love ya bruv.
2024 and I'm 50 years old, still an anarchist.
First band I ever saw live....Summer of 1981 in Reading....I think I paid a pound to get in.
Jesus Christ
Saw them at Digbeth Civic Hall (probably '81)
@@waynetemplar2183 glad to hear you got out alive! I didn’t go to the Digbeth gig, but heard from others who did that it was really tribal and kicked off big time. Ferryhill 82 for me - kicked off there as well. Squaddies objecting to the band’s anti Falklands stance.
CRASS... Love them since 1983... the group of dedicated people that proclaimed the justified and reasonable thought there's no authority but yourself...
Kisses and huugssh, Alba
Crass, amazing. Probably has the most significant message out of any punk bands.
Too bad they only have a few songs that are just as musically excellent (this being one of them)
This brings me back
Big fan of CRASS,..A.N.O.K.big up to all the punks.and anarchist's..big love.from keV the punk Plymouth u.k.
Crass had the deepest lyrics in punk, along with Dead Kennedys.
I wouldn't put the DK in the same league as Rudimentary Peni,Conflict,Discharge and the Subhumans.Now that was punk,sorry to say it,but it's true,the U.S never got punk as much as the U.K does.
@@DevonMike73 Elitist bullshitting.
I love these literal home made videos that use literal images to fit the lyrics, its cute.
this is an absolute gem from the genius of crass!
They made quite a few quid and gave it all away, on punk causes- never even paid for their house, which is still going.
That is a dedication to the cause. That shows that they were real people, not like the clash.
Perfect music for the times we live in now! Glad I found these guys years ago.
Urban Bass Slayers Sacramento CA Bass Fishing. so true especially now in the us.. was thinking the same thing the other day listening to dead kennedys
Met this couple amazing dudes SIMON AND QUENTIN "Q", in GRASPOP festival in Belgium this last weekend Who introduced me to Crass. Couldnt get their Contact, I would appreciate if you would like this comment, hopefully they you Will see this and reply me! Thanks and long live anarchopunk!!! Gerard.
Jeez,I used to Pogo to this in the 80's,got the 7" single amongst my vinyl....!!
I'm sure "Jeez" would approve!!!!
The big one! Probably one of the most influential songs you’ll ever hear…. Oh and Poison Girls .. Persons Unknown.
The best punk song ever made
This is my No1 song of all time and have always lived this way by the guidance from the word
Crass are fantastic. Brilliant lyrics.
This is among their best songs in my opinion.
I fucking love them...
ishortland goodshit.
Chupa!
Wake up to this song every morning, to remind myself what life is all about. Thank You Crass.
Stop the City marches, the Ambulance station, Bingo Hall and Zig Zag squats gigs. good time seem a long time ago now.
True anarchy is never chaos. It is 100% pacifism and love. It can never be brought about by violence.
We fight back
Can't believe this is the first time I've heard this band
Haha... I bought this on 7 inch vinyl and the single cover was a big poster, tbat was nearly 40 years ago. It's still one of the very best punk records ever made. Unbeaten lyrically.
This song gave me lots of inspiration as a teen. Thank you Crass for changing my life in a honest good direction. my eyes are now wide open.
The last part of this song really changed my life in a positive way and gave me great perspective on what punk is and what it means to me. Absolutely simple, but so brilliant that I didn't even fully understand its meaning until years later.
What can you say about this group of people...huge influence on my thinking.from 1984 to 2024.
Just had a flash back to 1981 - Fecking hell
for some reason this gives me “We didn’t start the fire” vibes; both in the music and video
Cheers For Looking, Apart from Steve's Feeding Of The 5000 gig last year, there will never be a full reunion of the band, as far as I know here's a rundown of what they are doing now....
Andy Palmer does not want to be contacted about Crass so no-one is too sure what he's doing these days
Penny Rimbaud
Still lives at Dial House, where he continues to write books and performs jazz poetry under the name Last Amendment with Eve Libertine and Gee Vaucher.
Steve is touring the US right now doing Crass songs. Im seeing him on May 15th in SF
Damn, almost a decade a go. Growing up, and wathing this video almost everyday when I was in High school.
Remains relevant. Especially post-pandemic. Keep it tight, people.
I'm 35, and this is one of my favorite songs of all time.

This has just came up on my feed, is this Big Alan Louttit a punk from Glasgow?
One of my exes is related to Harvey and Johnny and my niece was married to Jamie all members of Glasgow band The Disturbed, if it's not you my apologies!
@@robertelliott2026 Hi Robert, it is indeed Alan Louttit, a punk from Glasgow, it was me, Jamie and Johnny that formed the Disturbed, I unfortunatley had to leave the band before Harvey took over singing, lost touch with the Disturbed guys up until a few years ago but sadly not seen Jamie in over 30 years... not sure if you heard but Harvey suddenly passed away at the end of May, thanks for your message
@@AnarchoAlan Thought it was!
Yeah, I'm still in Glasgow, yeah knew about Harvey. Sad news!
How young was i but never forgotten the music😊
Thank you Crass
I like how these lyrics are broad enough for all types of anarchists to appreciate
hahahaha, I was actually turned on to Crass while I was IN the army.
plenty of punk bands got started by guys in the army,..
great way to release all that angst ....
unitedkingdom offiveeyes Anarchy is the third option
