The Wanderers - No Dreams

Sham 69 + Stiv Bators = The Wanderers
No Dreams from Only Lovers Left Alive-

Although this album has a cover of Dylan'sThe Times They Are A Changing, it's evidently clear in this song that times haven't changed at all since it's 1981 release.
Rooftop cameras monitoring the streets
Cancer causing chemicals in the food you eat
Zero population the family is banned
Frustration suicide, it's part of the plan
Genocide, kill the old, ain't useful anymore
No more resources, we'll have to go to war
Corporation/government they're run by the same
Start thinking for yourself you'll get in the way
No dreams - left for you
No dreams - nothing to do
No dreams - inside your, inside your bed got
No dreams
Unemployment, no enjoyment is your legacy
Machines don't go on strike don't need you or me
Television valiums keep you of the streets
So don't talk to strangers you might find the truth
Sirens singing in the night
Police riot - a show of might
The rich stay in cause they can't afford to be safe
Ya got no money so you're in the race
Stop scheming - stop screaming - stop dreaming too

Written and recorded in 1981, tells the story of what's going on in 2022.

Rest in peace Stiv. One of the greatest voices and one of the sweetest front man's in the rock'n'roll's history. Passed away long way too soon. Never forgotten, always deeply in heart... [*] ♡♥♡ [*]

even more relevant today!

[@emsotor]

Even more so today, or maybe it's just been like this for a really long time. Divide and conquer, control and subdue...

The comment(s) posted by Dave Parsons are NOT spam. He is awesome for even commenting at all. 'Spam Flaggers' should be flogged.

[@LucyFerocious]

I just pulled them off of google images. I wish someone would post footage!

Cool. Big Sham, Dead Boys, LOTNC fan. I had Disconnected, but never heard this before. Who's on drums and guitar? Kermit always looked a bit out of place with poofed hair.

[@MikeIXWilliams]

Did this LP ever get re-released?

[@LucyFerocious]

I am not sure, if it has I don't know about it and I don't know a lot :p. Shoot a message at Dave Parsons, he would be able to tell you. daveparsons69 here on youtube.
