The Clash - Clampdown

The lyrics of the song are about working for other people, and how it is hard to resist the pull to the social normality and be different. It is also about how when you work and work, you use a lot of your time. "the judge said five to ten but I say double that again."

A musical element that pushes the message is the constant rythmical beat. It represents a hammer that is constantly hammering a nail, which represents work that never stops.

The quote, "We will teach our twisted speach to the young believers" Shows persuasion because they government is showing kids how they should act when they are a young age.
