Standards Songtext
von The Jam

We make the standards and we make the rules
And if you don′t abide by them you must be a fool
We have the power to control the whole land
You never must question our motives or plans
Loud are your voices to anything we want
You're nothing to fear from the nation
We′ll kick you out your house if you get too much
If we have to we'll destroy your generation
We build up a fortress and we gain respect
There's no one to endanger our position

Status rule okay
Status rule okay
Status rule okay
Status rule okay


And we don′t like people who stand in our way
Awareness is gonna be redundant
And ignorance is strength we have got our side
But you know what happened to Einstein

We make the standards and we make the rules
And if you don′t abide by them you must be a fool
We have the power to control the whole land
You never must question our motives or plans

Status rule okay
Status rule okay
Status rule okay
Status rule okay

Status, status
Status, status
Status, status
Status, status
Status, status
Status, status
Status, status
