Handel Case once told us
Many years ago
Jesus was a socialist
The bible tells us so
Do unto others as you would have done to you
It's obvious, but he didn't have a clue
Why when he went to church
Up and down the aisles
Were rows and rows of Tories
Wearing hypocrites' smiles
Robert Tressell might've told him
And the knowledge might've flowed
That it's probably an anarchist
Helping him across the road

So don't be afraid, don't be alarmed
You won't come to no harm
Don't be surprised, don't be blowed
When an anarchist helps you cross the road

And never mind the bankers
'Cos they've read Hobbes
And they're earning bonuses
While we're losing jobs
Adam Smith said the market is all that you need
It's obvious, but it relies on greed
If you believe what's right
If you believe what's fair
You don't want the government taking your share
Don't buy anything tomorrow
Erase your barcode
Don't be surprised when an anarchist
Helps you across the road

So don't be afraid, don't be alarmed
You won't come to no harm
Don't be surprised, don't be blowed
When an anarchist helps you cross the road

He wants to smash the system
But a window will do
He understands the revolution
May take a day or two
Altruism can't compete with exploitation
It's obvious, but it's a capitalist nation
The haves tell the have-nots what to do
Is the ballot box enough for you?
Sit back and watch the fireworks
Watch parliament explode
And then wait for an anarchist
To help you across the road

So don't be afraid, don't be alarmed
You won't come to no harm
Don't be surprised, don't be blowed
When an anarchist helps you cross the road
