V roce 1990 bylo v New Yorku asi deset punx ale punkovou scénu ovládaly hipísáci. The Casualties vznikli aby vzaly punk hipíkům a vrátily punx. Byli nekompromysní a možná i díky tomu se zadařilo. Z té malé skupinky punkáčů vzrostla obrovská (...

Píseň: System Failed Us Again

Interpret:
Casualties, The
Album:
Under Attack
Whoa.. Oh.. Oh.. THE SYSTEM FAILED US AGAIN
Whoa.. Oh.. Oh.. THE SYSTEM FAILED US AGAIN


Factory layoff, welfare checks
Who's to blame for the state we're in?
THE SYSTEM FAILED US
Government housing, concentration camps
Ghetto barriers separate each class
THE SYSTEM FAILED US


Whoa.. Oh.. Oh.. THE SYSTEM FAILED US AGAIN
Whoa.. Oh.. Oh.. THE SYSTEM FAILED US AGAIN


We've been pushed down into extinction
Talking about the infirmed, the elderly
Families can't afford health insurance
Have to choose - groceries to eat or medicine to live


Native cultures, praise the old
Through experience they've seen it all
THE SYSTEM FAILED US
There's a power in control
Making sure they won't teach the young
THE SYSTEM FAILED US


Whoa.. Oh.. Oh.. THE SYSTEM FAILED US AGAIN
Whoa.. Oh.. Oh.. THE SYSTEM FAILED US AGAIN


At charity care they treat you like shit
They've got jobs, so they don't care
So you must bow like a slave
You're future depends on the decision they make


THE SYSTEM FAILED US...


See benefits being taken away
From the people, who's money you take
THE SYSTEM FAILED US
Perhaps they know too much
Get rid of them before they talk
THE SYSTEM FAILED US
