1,2,3,4, 1 2 3 4 break down the door break down the door
5 6 7 8 5 6 7 8 ohh shit its too late too late
9 10 11 12 , 9 10 11 12 you don’t know how deep you want to delve
They’re calling the cops they’re calling the cops, oh noo
We’re not calling the shots, we're not calling the shots, no more no more
And the crowbar is heavy in your hands and your heart is beating, you’ve forgotten all your plans
And the crowbar is cold and you can’t see nothing at all
Empty the van yeah, empty the van we could build a something beautiful up
But oh shit oh shit we’ve fucked up and they’re too near
Run run run run
run run run run away
You’ve gota say this wasn’t as much fun as you thought it’d be today
But you’ll do it again you’ll do it again
Maybe not quite the same
Although you know that no one here was to blame
But you know, that you won’t quit this game
1,2,3,4, 1 2 3 4 break down the door break down the door
5 6 7 8 5 6 7 8 ohh its too late too late
9 10 11 12 , 9 10 11 12 I don’t know how deep I want to delve
1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 we’ll fight for more, fight for more
5 6 7 8 5 6 7 8 it’s not too late never too late

chords:
first part: C G Dm Am
second part: Am G Am C
the stairs are creaking, the wallpapers are speaking
the planks are dusty and the pipes are rusty
curtains are fraying, structure is decaying
the cellar is very musty, the rooftop is not trusty
it was built a long time ago, generations passing by
people were born and grew and grew, families argued, people died
wars were fought, lightnings striked and storms were heavy raging
but it was kept for centuries and survived all the slow aging
it was bought by a dentist from new york, in the late eighties
he died because he ate to much pork, and it was given to heirs from niece
but they didn't care about the house, and let it fall apart
now there live bugs and a mouse, and some high plants in the yard
but....
from one day to the other the house became a squat
they broke down the door and cleaned away the mud
the stove got some fire, the walls got new paint
they repaired the kitchen and the carpet lost its stains
now there's a bunch of people, who call the house their home
they're sharing what they have, and noone sleeps alone
the neighbours join for cooking and some stay over night
and if there is a problem the party can turn quiet
there is space for many ideas, and space for d-i-y
travelling folks are also coming by
they organize demos and live communally
discussing their problems, and form a family
maybe there'll be struggle, maybe an eviction
maybe no more water or some other restriction
they deal it together, live solidarity
if cops arrest someone, they fight till they are free

Snowflake Song

chords:
verse: Em D B7 Em
chorus: Am F
good friends are like snowflakes - we don't talk to cops
they stop you in the street - control you in the park
they drive behind your car - catch you in the dark
they invite you for some tea - offer you some cake
they are humans like me and you - giving handshakes
shut up, shut up - don't answer their questions
shut up, shut up - don't follow their suggestions
shut up, shut up - stop playing their games
shut up, shut up - stay true to your aims
they don't say it's your skin - it's your suspicious walk
they choose you 'cause your mohawk - declare it as a normal talk
they just check your id - and then they'll let you go
they seem to be a helper - don't tell you what they really know
shut up, shut up - silence is defensive
shut up, shut up - you decide what you give
shut up, shut up - don't sign any paper
shut up, shut up - you can tell them later
they come to search your house - stop you being loud
they observe you for days - pull you from the crowd
they tell you you've choices - refuse you your calls
they keep you isolated - threaten you with prison walls
shut up, shut up - fight for your rights
shut up, shut up - don't cooperate with their side
shut up, shut up - protect your friends
shut up, shut up - united we stand

chords: am am c am x2
am g f am
am g g am
we have holes in our clothes and let hair grow where it grows
eat food from the dumpster and live our life as it goes
love who we want and take care of the people around
we are not work-life-balanced, the day is a playground
for us it's serious to make fewer purchases
it's serious because they have many bloody traces
there is blood on many clothes and blood on much food
violant relationships and many jobs don't seem good
we struggle with routine and an activist life
discussions with friends and family sometimes bring strife
we question everything, even if we find no solution
focus on now, we won't wait for revolution
horrible how lives get destroyed and noone cares
while only fictional movies are able to scare
but all the drowned people have no voice
and those deported to war zones also have no choice
we keep on remembering while we are fighting
private is political and not a sideline happening
the repression is able to attack our private lives
but for a better world we continue to strive
the more we are learning the more we have to think
it all seems much more normal if you have the right skin
if you don't get shot by the bullets here produced
or if no one's talking about past abuse

chords: G# G Cm Cm
I don’t want no coal
I don’t want no oil
No capitalism
Just give me something real
Just give me an honest system
This society lives on a lie, it lives on fake,
Accepting a government, well, that’s your first mistake
Cause I just wanna mess up this system with you x2
Whether that’s romantic well that’s your point of view,
But I just wanna mess this system up with you.
With you I’ll sit on the tracks
Until it all collapses
try to kiss you through your ski mask
And take you on a riot date
Police records all disappear,
And you and I could just sit here
Cause I just want to roll around on the tracks with you x2
Whether that’s revolutionary well that’s your point of view,
But I just wanna radicalise with you.
I don’t know your name,
I can’t see your face,
But I know you’re beautiful, baby
What’s beautiful
Is your refusal
To play a tame game
Baby, please commit crimes with me
I just wanna cuddle in a coal mine with you x2
Whether that’s political well that’s your point of view
But I just wanna snuggle with you.

Hop A Cop

chords: gm dm a7 dm
we're crowd of hundred people, coming closer to the nazi-march
just some meters left, but they seem pretty harsh
the street is full of cops and they have riot gear
but all of a sudden the nazis don't feel near
but we are unstopable, stopping nazis is possible
we are unstopable, 'cause all cops are hopable
hop, hop, hop a cop (3x) hop a hop a cop
we hop over their helmets, find ways through their lines
sit down on the nazi-route, sending more than just a sign
hop, hop, hop a cop (3x) hop a hop a cop
we meet in supermarkets, have to get some stuff
don't wanna pay for all, 'cause our money is not enough
so we grab a bit of chocolate, and hide it in our hoodies
spotted by security they called the police
but we are unstopable, stealing stuff is possible
...
we hop over their car, and escape to safer places
share the stolen goods, with a many happy faces
...
it's early in the morning, all the gates are still closed
climbing over fences, an alarm and we're exposed
run through muddy fields, try to reach the digger
police with dogs are coming, the barking is a trigger
but we are unstopable, blocking coal is possible
...
we hop their batons, and climb very high up
they have to shut it down, and the digger is stopped
all cops are hopable, we're unstopable
all cops are hopable, another world is possible (2x)
hop, hop, hop a cop (4x)
