Schwartzeneggar were a anachro-punk supergroup of
sorts, not because of their tunes but because of who
was in the group... Steve Ignorant was in Crass, Mark
Pickstone was in Conflict and Andi Tuck is from
Thatcher On Acid. This CD EP compiles their first
three records, all 2-song 7"s that came out in
1992-1993. They also released a full length cd called
"The Way Things Are... And Other Stories" (Allied,
1994). I'm absolutely amazed that with all the Crass
worship these days taht none of Schwartzeneggars
records have been ripped. BTW: Crusties may be
horrified to hear Steve Ignorant talking about prayer
and other topics he would have never touched while in
Crass, but that's because like the rest of Crass (OK
Penny is an exception) he grew up and grew out of the
naive idealism that defined Crass.
And so will you someday.

TAKE YOUR ELBOWS OFF THE TABLE lyrics

Take your elbows off the table, listen to me.
I'm going to tell you about a fable called history.
It's cold, hard fact to be exact.
It's a one-side story - but it's action packed.

The best thing to happen was civilization
now we've got a war in every nation.
The savages were heathens and had to be taught.
God is one our side when the battle is fought.

So we gave them the book, showed them how to read,
pointed our guns, showed them how to bleed.
Took what we wanted, left nothing but shame,
pointed our fingers then we shifted the blame.

Take your elbows off the table.

One - You're ruled by money, the power that it brings and if you think that's funny.
Two - When it changes hands it can rub out a nation, tear up the land.

You got highways, skyways, railways, motorways, this way, that way, don't try to get away, you're trained, tamed, numbered and named,
got a lock on your heart, the same on your brain.

Regulation, education, don't get ideas above your station.
Stay where you are, stay where you're placed, stay satisfied with a smile on your face.
Take your elbows off the table.

Gold was found in the savage land,
so we set out to get it with a gun in our hand.
Nothing stood in the way of the Great White Flood,
where rivers once sang was a fountain of blood,

for money was God and God decreed, millions must die, let the parasites feed,
so we slaughtered our way to paradise.

A shadow moved to tame the land,
profits soared as all went as planned.

Millions died as wallets fattened,
history books pretend it never happened.
A history of pain,
profit from pain

and still it happens
again and again.

See what civilization means,
sitting in front of computer screens.
Civilization means imprison a race
for the colour of skin, or the shape of a face,
demon drink to numb the senses,
purchase the land under false pretences.
Promise as long as rivers run,
there'll be equal rights for everyone.

What happens next? The promise is broken,
civilized say the worlds were never spoken.
Civilization means cheat and lie,
civilization means the spirit dies.
Terminate cultures, wipe out nations,
all in the name of civilization.
Take your elbows off the table.
