They said release
Remote Control
but they didn't want it
on our label
They said,
"Fly to Amsterdam",
the people laughed
but the press went mad
oh oh oh
Someone's really smart
oh oh oh
Complete control,
that's a laugh
On the last tour my mates
they couldn't get in
I'd open up the back door
but they'd get
run out again
And at every hotel
we was met by the law,
come for the party,
come to make sure
oh oh oh
Have we done
something wrong?
oh oh oh
Complete control,
even over this song
You’re my guitar hero
They said
we'd be artistically free
when we signed that
bit of paper
They meant
let's make a lotsa money
and worry about it later
oh oh oh
I'll never understand
oh oh oh
Complete control,
lemme see your
other hand
I don’t trust you,
why did you trust me?
Oh!
All over the news
spreads fast
They’re dirty,
they're filthy,
they ain't gonna last
This is Joe Public
speaking
I'm controlled in the body
I'm controlled in the mind
This is the top rockers
With your zone in the price
you whore, comes to me
Total,
see you in control
Total,
see you in control
We’ve got the rock ‘n’ roll
and then we're in
complete control
That means you
I kick it, I fight it,
I gotta get up at it
I gotta give up you
