Rant & Rave Lyrics - Joe Jackson

I'm gonna rant and rave 

I'm gonna lose control if they get me mad 

I'm staring at the TV screen 

They're staring right back 

I got a bottle in my hand 

I think I'll blow them up 

I'm gonna weep and wail 

I'm gonna gnash my teeth 

At the lies they tell 

And half the people in the world 

Don't even know where they are 

Don't even know they're being had 

I'm gonna wake them up 

(Believe me you'll find out 

That everything's rotten 

From bottom to top through and through 

All gold is just glitter 

All gains are ill-gotten 

But now what the hell do we do...) 

I'm gonna scream and shout 

I'm gonna stamp my feet 

'til a policeman comes 

I don't care what they say 

Don't care what they write down 

Book of rules or book of life 

I'm gonna tear them up 

(now who wants to be just 

A bug that they trample 

Well you see what has happened of course 

'cause instead of using the force of example 

Now it's just the example of force...)
