Lyrics
[Intro] Do you know your fucking enemy? [Chorus] Do you know the enemy? Do you know your enemy? Well, gotta know the enemy, rah-eh Do you know the enemy? Do you know your enemy? Well, gotta know the enemy, rah-eh Do you know the enemy? Do you know your enemy? Well, gotta know the enemy, rah-eh [Verse] Well, violence is an energy against the enemy Well, violence is an energy, rah-eh Bringin' on the fury, the choir infantry Revolt against the honor to obey (Oh-eh-oh-eh) Overthrow the effigy, the vast majority Well, burnin' down the foreman of control (Oh-eh-oh-eh) Silence is an enemy against your urgency So rally up the demons of your soul (Oh-eh-oh-eh) [Chorus] Do you know the enemy? Do you know your enemy? Well, gotta know the enemy, rah-eh Do you know the enemy? Do you know your enemy? Well, gotta know the enemy, rah-eh [Bridge] The insurgency will rise When the blood's been sacrificed Don't be blinded by the lies in your eyes Say, say, say, say, say [Instrumental Break] [Guitar Solo] [Spoken Word] Billie: Throw those hands in the air! We're sayin': Hey-oh! Audience: Hey-oh! Billie: We're sayin': Hey-oh! C'mon! Audience: Hey-oh! Billie: Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Audience: Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Billie: [...]! We're sayin': Hey-oh! Go! Audience: Hey-oh! Billie: We're sayin': Hey-oh! [Breakdown] Well, violence is an energy (Oh-eh-oh-eh) Well, from here to eternity (Oh-eh-oh-eh) Well, violence is an energy (Oh-eh-oh-eh) Well, silence is the enemy, so gimme, gimme revolution [Chorus] Do you know the enemy? Do you know your enemy? Well, gotta know the enemy, rah-eh Do you know the enemy? Do you know your enemy? Well, gotta know the enemy, rah-eh Do you know the enemy? Do you know your enemy? Well, gotta know the enemy, rah-eh [Outro] (Do you know the enemy?) Overthrow the effigy, the vast majority (Well, gotta know the enemy) Well, burnin' down the foreman of control (Oh-eh-oh-eh) (Do you know the enemy?) Silence is an enemy against your urgency (Well, gotta know the enemy) So rally up the demons of your soul (Oh-eh-oh-eh) [Spoken Word Outro] Billie: This is what I'm talkin' about! This is a fucking gathering! There ain't no fucking country in the world that can gather like you guys can, right here in Manchester, England! I'm sayin': Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh! C'mon! Audience: Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh! Billie: I'm sayin': Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh! Audience: Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh! Billie: And you will see!
