Artist/Band: Todd Rundgren
Lyrics for Song: Up Against It
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Todd Rundgren



Can you hear it?

Ear against the ground and you'll hear it

I can tell a change when I hear it



We are tigers

Kings of jungles

Trapped in cages

We forget we once were free!



And the average swain

Would be contented in his chains

Were it not for complainers like me



Throw the book

I'm up against it

Up against the rules

Bring the experts

Up against them

Up against the fools

Bring on city hall

I'm against them all



Lamp of freedom



No, you can't change

Human nature

Wheels of power

Keep revolving endlessly

With a fanatical faction

A charismatic attraction

There's a piece of that action for me



Call the press

I'm up against it

Up against the flacks

Bring the shrink

I'm up against it

Up against the quacks

Revenuers

Up against it

Up against the tax

Name some names

And I'm up against them

Bullies, big and small

I'm against them all



All we need is some vitality

Like an, individuality

But I guess they

Make it all alone



Bring the girls

I'm up against them

I'm up against their lips

Bring the boys

I'm up against them

Up against their hips

Bring the priest

I'm up against him

Up against that cross

Bring the mob

I'm up against it

Up against the boss

Bring the cops

I'm up against it

Up against the jaw

Throw the book

I'm up against it

Up against the law



Politicians, all, I'm against them

Fascist lackeys all against the wall



Fist of freedom

Guns of freedom



Bring the lackeys

Up against it

Up against the wall

Bring the bishop

Up against it

Up against the wall

Bring the chairman

Up against it

Up against the wall

Put the general

Up against it

Up against the wall!
