CommonwealthPunk was correct -- the lyrics are printed inside "Deep in the Throat of Texas." And T-S Words was right as well -- his ears hear lyrics better than mine. Here's the lyrics to Crowd Control: CROWD CONTROL Beat gets to you Let it go right through you Strike a chord in you It's time to move move move you Ignore those people always watchin' watchin' watchin' What a bore, those people always watchin' you Ignore those people always watchin' watchin' watchin' you! Now you don't need no Saturday night lessons Well you know those are just for terminal bores And you don't need no good advice for you Are you out of patience with crowd control these days? You pay your ticket You pay the wages You pay the ticket You pay our wages You pay the ticket YOU! NOTE that the lyrics for "Corporate Settings" includes several "???"s which makes me think that these lyrics are Ryan Richardson's best guess and not sourced from the original bands. That said, his guess is the best we've got right now. Despite getting royally trolled by the Uncalled 4, he did a really nice job on this LP -- I forgot how much care and love went into this.

CommonwealthPunk was correct — the lyrics are printed inside “Deep in the Throat of Texas.” And T-S Words was right as well — his ears hear lyrics better than mine. Here’s the lyrics to Crowd Control:

CROWD CONTROL

Beat gets to you
Let it go right through you
Strike a chord in you
It’s time to move move move you

Ignore those people
always watchin’ watchin’ watchin’
What a bore, those people
always watchin’ you
Ignore those people
always watchin’ watchin’ watchin’ you!

Now you don’t need no Saturday night lessons
Well you know those are just for terminal bores
And you don’t need no good advice for you
Are you out of patience with crowd control these days?

You pay your ticket
You pay the wages
You pay the ticket
You pay our wages
You pay the ticket
YOU!

Your English will always be leaps and bounds better than my Swedish. T S-words, thanks for chiming in. Your line "you pay their wages" makes more sense than what I was hearing -- although I'm not sure I'm hearing it that way. It's funny to me that the most mysterious line of all is the first one. Where's U-Ron when ya need him? Peter, I understand. Your English will always be leaps and bounds better than my Swedish. T S-words, thanks for chiming in.
