The Clash - living in fame

사람들은 자신이 주장하는 것에 대해 진정성을 가져야 하며, 그렇지 않으면 사회에서 실패할 수 있다는 교훈이 담겨 있다
또한, 자신의 정체성과 믿음을 잃지 않고 살아야 한다는 메시지를 전한다

So you've got to live up to your name
Or else I'll put you to shame, listen
If you say you a selector
You a fe have good selection
A-and I say if you say you a the special
Man, I say I want to know your potential
You a say you a madness
You a say you a the best
But when I put you upon you feet
A-some a-some a say you can't play de beat
And I hear you say a Clash a you ruler
Say a Clash sound cooler, eh
Say a Clash sound sweeter
And now-a-days man a measure mile in a meter, eh

Some a dem a bodysnatcher
Some a dem a barracuda, eh
But who a know fe me Jah Jah
