COMBATTIAMOLI E RESPINGIAMOLI

Gli spaccheremo il cranio
Perché dentro non ci hanno nulla,
Gli spaccheremo il cranio
Perché dentro non ci hanno nulla.

Alcuni di loro dicono che odiano i negri,
Alcun di loro dicono che pestano i neri
Alcuni di loro dicono che accoltellano i negri
E alcuni di loro dicono che picchiano i pakistani.

I fascisti all'attacco
Nessuno si preoccupi,
I fascisti all'attacco
Li combatteremo e li respingeremo.
I fascisti all'attacco
E noi al contrattacco,
I fascisti all'attacco
E noi li respingeremo.

Gli spaccheremo il cranio
Perché dentro non ci hanno nulla,
Gli spaccheremo il cranio
Perché dentro non ci hanno nulla.
FIGHT THEM BACK

We're gonna smash their brains in,
Because they haven't got nothing in them,
We're gonna smash their brains in,
Because they haven't got nothing in them.
 
Some of them say they hate niggers.
And some of them say they beat blacks,
Some of them say they stab blacks,
And some of them say they bash Pakis.
 
Fascists are attacking
Nobody worry about that,
Fascists are attacking,
We will fight them back.
Fascists are attacking,
Then we counter-attack,
Fascists are attacking,
Then we'll drive them back.
 
We're gonna smash their brains in,
Because they haven't got nothing in them,
We're gonna smash their brains in,
Because they haven't got nothing in them.
