The Jam - The Combine lyrics
[The Jam - The Combine lyrics]
And life is very difficult
When you're in the crowd
When you're in the crowd
You see things as they really are
You can smell the fear and hate
Generated by all around i want to breakaway
But the ties are too strong
Want to go on holiday
But the crowd says I can't
See life is very different
When you're in the crowd
Oh, sometimes in the night
I wish I was faraway but then I realize
Even escape will be in vain
I want to close my eyes and be like the rest
I mean, nobody wants to die
Although the crowd say they do
Look, life is very intricate
When you're in the crowd
Life becomes the movies
And everyone has a role
It's easy being the actor
When the combine's the only star
Sunday papers and the dailies
Ena Sharples page 3 girls
News at ten war in Rhodesia
Far away in a distant land
But we're alright we're nice and warm here
No one to hurt us except ourselves
When you're in the crowd
When you're in the crowd
You see things as they really are
You can smell the fear and hate
Generated by all around i want to breakaway
But the ties are too strong
Want to go on holiday
But the crowd says I can't
See life is very different
When you're in the crowd
Oh, sometimes in the night
I wish I was faraway but then I realize
Even escape will be in vain
I want to close my eyes and be like the rest
I mean, nobody wants to die
Although the crowd say they do
Look, life is very intricate
When you're in the crowd
Life becomes the movies
And everyone has a role
It's easy being the actor
When the combine's the only star
Sunday papers and the dailies

Far away in a distant land
But we're alright we're nice and warm here
No one to hurt us except ourselves
