In all the Clash songbooks and lyric sites they give the lyric in Stay Free as "We piss on everyone in the classroom", but if you listen closely Mick doesn't sing that. It sounds more like "We just taught everyone." Any theories?
(a) The real lyrics are in one of Mick's many sheds scattered throughout the Commonwealth.
(b) He owes it to the fans.
(c) Feet to the fire time!
(d) Don't shoot the messenger but …
(e) He betrayed the meaning of the Clash and the fans in [YEAR].

I think you are correct I don’t think it is “pissed on everyone” but not sure about ‘we just taught everyone’ either. Sounds more like ‘kissed’ than ‘pissed’ or ‘we just’.
None really feel with the song lyrics though?

"You know we piss on everyone in the classroom" is correct.

Go listen to any of the live versions.

I agree. I wonder if Mick's accent makes it harder to decipher to the barbarians near Hadrians Wall.

I've no doubt Mick sings "piss" in the live versions, but there is no "p" for piss in the GEER version, it's more of a "j".

Yeah, it was mentioned earlier and it is actually what it sounds like, phonetically. There is no P there at all.
