Hegemony Songtext
von Scritti Politti

Hegemony, hegemony...
You are the fairest creature
You are the fairest creature that ever I have seen,
And it′s all for Monopoly
On all those pretty sexibles/sensibles,
That rot and raise a nation the capacity for change

(Spoken/chanted)
An honest day's pay for an honest day′s work
You can't change human nature
Don't bite the hand that feeds you


Hegemony, hegemony,
You are the foulest cr... (eature)
You are the foulest creature that set upon a race,
You can generate and dissipate
But only very stupidly
Such it is the splendour of popular control

(Spoken/chanted)
Some are born the lead, and others born to follow,
A place for everything, everything in its place

How do you do this?
How can you do it to me?
When all you are is ordinary, it′s pretty common sense
You are natural, immutable and everyone exquisites (?) you
As common sense
And common sense is things just as they are

Spoken/chanted)
Rock′n'roll, is there a solo? can you dance to it?
Walk it like you talk it
Be there or be square.
