Biografía:
Duo pionero del acid jazz, formado en 1983 por Paul Weller (ex lider de The Jam) y Mick Talbot (procedente de Merton Parkas). En 1984 entró en la banda el bateria Steve White y posteriormente se incorporo a la banda la cantante Dee C. Lee, colaboradora de Wham! y por entonces esposa de Weller.
Su mayor exito es el album Our Favourite Shop de 1985, donde bajo una superficie de ritmos jazzy, pop al estilo Burt Bacharach y bossa nova se esconden dirísimas críticas a Margaret Thacher, a la sazón primera ministra británica.

Intro:
Starts with organ and builds up
Em A D D/C# Bm B
Verse 1:
Em A
You don't have to take this crap
Em A
You don't have to sit back and relax
D D/C# Bm B/D#
You can actually try changing it
Em A
I know we've always been taught to rely
Em A
Upon those in authority
Em A
But you never know until to try
Em A
How things just might be
D D/C# Bm B/D#
If we came together so strongly
Chorus 1:
G A
Are you gonna try to make this work
F# Bm
Or spend your days down in the dirt?
Em
You see things can change
A D
Yes, the walls can come tumbling down
D D/C#
Governments crack and systems fall
D/C B
'Cause unity is powerful
Em A D
Lights go out, walls come tumbling down
D/C#
Yes they do (yes they do)
D/C B
Yes they do (yes they do)
Verse 2:
Em A
The competition is a colour TV
Em A
We're on still pause with the video machine
D D/C# Bm B/D#
That keeps you slaves to the H.P.
Em A
Until the unity is threatened by
Em A
Those who have and who have not
Em A
Those who are with and those who are without
Em A
And dangle jobs like the donkey's carrot
D D/C# Bm B/D#
Until you don't know where you are
Chorus 2:
G A
Are you gonna get to realise
F# Bm
The class war's real and not mythologised
Em A D
Just like Jericho, yes the walls can come tumbling down
D D/C#
Governments crack and systems fall
D/C B
'Cause unity is powerful
Em A
Lights go out, walls come tumbling
Bridge:
Fmaj7 C
(Down,) they'll be too weak to fight it
Fmaj7 C
(Down,) oh, let's unite it
Fmaj7 C
(Down,) oh, will you unite it?
Fmaj7 G A B
Ooooh
Verse 3:
Em A
Are you gonna be threatened by
Em A
The public enemies number ten?
Em A
Those who play the power game,
Em A
They take the profits, you take the blame,
D D/C# Bm B/D#
When they tell you there's no rise in pay
Chorus 3/Outro:
G A
Are you gonna try to make this work
F# Bm
Or spend your days down in the dirt?
Em
You see things can change
A D
Yes, the walls can come tumbling down
D D/C#
Governments crack and systems fall
D/C B
'Cause unity is powerful
Em A D
Lights go out, walls come tumbling down
