I've never been one to bow down

Not to any man

Always had a problem with authority

Don't need their master plan

Politician son of a bitch

Tax your last dime

Another cog in their machine

It's just a waste of time

I believe in rock n roll

That's all I need

It saved my soul and it satisfies me

Kneeling down just ain't my style

I just don't give a damn

But if you need it straight to the point

Then mama I'm your man

They'll keep you weak and they'll keep you in need

That's how they control you

Line their pockets with your blood and sweat

Watch all you say and you do

But they'll never control me

It's not in the stars

Don't need no talkin' heads to tell us who we are

[Solo - Jimmy]

You gotta make the most of your life

Before you die

Don't waste your time with kissing ass

In a suit and a tie

Two wheels and rock n roll

Will take you far

They never could understand

Our life behind bars

Don't need their rat race

Or your picket fence

It's the same old song

The hate machine rolls on and on

Stay clean - be true

The only things that you can do

Ride hard - die free

Upright like a man's supposed to be

Shoot straight, win the race

Up your sleeve you hold the ace

Don't give in to their con

The hate machine rolls on
