- A.U
A U Come outside
I'm fed up with you looking
Like the cat who got the cooking
I said A U
You and me outside
You've got the kind of face
The face of a git
And I really want to hit it
- A.U.
A U Come outside
I'm fed up with you looking
Like the cat who got the cooking
I said A U
You and me outside
You've got the kind of face
The face of a git
And I really want to hit it
- Anthem
Give me your hopes, give me your dreams
Give me your conscience and your fears
I'll keep them safe, I'll hold them dear
And I'll believe in you
When you're blind I'll be your eyes
When you're weak I'll carry you
When hope is gone I'll pull you through
- Because you're young
Because you're young, sharp as a knife
You need that buzz to come alive
Out on the edge, out on the town
You ain't got time to settle down
You're always sure, you're always right
You see it all in black and white
You never listen to anyone
Because you're young
- Closedown
I am a product of the sixth degree
Don't you wish that you were me
I go for a walk and then I watch TV
'Til it's time to have my tea
I watch all the adverts splashed on my screen
But they don't mean a thing to me
It's a joke it's a scream a rotten scheme
So I close my eyes and dream
- Crack In The Mirror
Got drunk on a Friday night
Woke up Sunday morning
His bags by the front door
There's no final warning
She's thrown in all his clothes
And all reason is out
It's the silence that killed him
He wished to God she'd shout
- East end girl
When she's hot it's the heat of a burning at the stake
And when she's cold it's the chill of a frozen Moscow lake
And when she smiles is it real or the smile an assassin makes
Before he sends you to hell ?
She's an east end girl
When she sighs it's the sigh of a sleeping tiger's stir
And when she cries it's a storm like the world has never heard
- England Belongs To Me
Years of being told you ain't as good as us
Join the line, sign your name
And they all said that our country's going bust
But no-one's fooling us again
[Chorus]
England belong's to me
A nation's pride the dirty water on the rivers
- Goodbye
We were born by the Thames' running water, sons of the social disorder
Go to school, get a job, be a fool or a yob and prepare yourself for jail
But we tired of the constant surrender to those with a hidden agenda
So we fought with the best, now it's time for a rest as we say our last farewell
[Chorus]
Goodbye, we're calling it day, we're having it away, we're gonna say goodbye
Goodbye, there's nothing left to say, we're getting in the way
- I Got Your Number
It can't be right what I'm reading here
No one believes in all this stuff no more
Our ideas don't see eye to eye
You get your press with a pocketfull of lies
Telling everybody every word is true
One day soon they're gonna see through you
- I Live In Marbella
Well I worked on a site and I soldered up pipes
And I still ended up with nothing left to show
So I thought I'd give it one more go
I met this bloke and I thought it was a joke
When he asked if I had it in my heart to rob
What he meant was a nice bank job
So I thought I'd give it one more try, one final chance before I die
I got me a gun and a ticket to the sun
- I've Got Your Number
It can't be right what I'm reading here
No one believes in all this stuff no more
Our ideas don't see eye to eye
You get your press with a pocketfull of lies
Telling everybody every word is true
One day soon they're gonna see through you
- Last Orders
The first time that I saw her it was getting kinda late
I’d already had a skinful but I asked her for a date
She said yes, I had a drink to celebrate
Time for one last round
- Out Of An Island
Everybody's got a number tattooed on their soul
And the time's gonna come boy, when your number's called
Everybody gets a uniform and a hut to live in
They give you your rank, you tell 'em your next of kin
And there's no escape for the likes of you, my friend
[Chorus]
- Out On An Island
Everybody's got a number tattooed on their soul
And the time's gonna come boy, when your number's called
Everybody gets a uniform and a hut to live in
They give you your rank, you tell 'em your next of kin
And there's no escape for the likes of you, my friend
But I'm gonna be out on an island
In the middle of the bright blue sea
- Riot Squad
When we were at school I thought he had it sussed
Fighting the law with the rest of us
Smoking, drinking, acting cool.
('Til) they started treating him like a fool
Then he stayed on his own for most of the time
Dreaming dreams of a life of crime
In and out of trouble, he cheated and lied
But who'd have thought he'd join the other side
- Roads To Freedom
Life sucks and then you die
That's what my old man said
Stand up its in yout face
But don't let it get you down
Remember this instead
There's a road somewhere that'll lead you to your dreamsOooohh oooohhh ooohhh
We're all looking for the roads to freedom (x2)It might be a semi-detached
With a hatchback in the drive
- Runnin Riot
Things you say, Things you do sure worry me,
When were out on the street making money for you in your society.
It seems to me the time is right,
for another generation and another street fight.
Got no future, sure got a right, I got a right to live.
I can't stand the peace and quiet.
All I want is a running a riot.
- Runnin' Riot
Running riot for you
Things you say and things you do sure worry me,
When were out on the street making money for you and your society.
It seems to me the time is right, for another generation
and another street fight.
Got no future, sure got a right, I got a right to live
Cos I can't stand the peace and quiet
- Running Riot
Running riot for you
Things you say and things you do sure worry me,
When were out on the street making money for you and your society.
It seems to me the time is right, for another generation
and another street fight.
Got no future, sure got a right, I got a right to live
Cos I can't stand the peace and quiet
- Suicide Girls
Four in the morning, out all night, going where she can't tell.
But she knows it'll be alright, she's with the suicide Girls.
Strutting down the street, with an attitude like she own's the world.
Don't even think she'd look at you, she's with the Suicide Girls.
And when they're all together you'd better watch out,
nobody's gonna mess with them, 'till the last one passes out.
- Take Em All
We worked our way up from east end pubs
To gigs and back stage passes
Ex-boxing champs, West end clubs
Americans in dark glasses
Driving ten grand cars, they drink in hotel bars
They're even making money in bed
They wouldn't be no loss, they aint worth a toss
It's about time they all dropped dead.
- Tart
There's something we both know
You're meant for me but even so
If I offered you the chance
You'd probably still say no
I've got to get it through to you
You know you really want me to
You've ignored me from the start
You stuck-up, two-faced tart.
- Teenage heart
Friend of my mine said he rather be dead, with a bullet from a 45 in his head,
Or his wrist slashed to ribbons with a blade instead, than reach 24 that’s what he said.
Ooh, ooh, ooh, what they trying to do to my teenage heart
I said Ooh, ooh, ooh, what they trying to do, try to tear it apart, try to tear it apart, My Teenage Heart.
Remember the first time it seems so long, had a new guitar and a handful of songs.
We played in a run-down railroad shack, they said you’re too loud, get out and don’t you come back.
- The sun says
We got Reds under the bed
We got lovely's nude and tanned
We got the wife of a mass murderer
And we only paid her ten grand
We got Samantha Fox we got lots of sport
We got scroungers full of greed
"You Scum" is the headline
For you and your kids to read
- Time To Be Me
So you think you're gonna cause a splash
You're gonna make some cash
You're gonna open every door
With the wind in your hair and the sun on your face
Everything's gonna fall into place
You're so sure
And you take whatever you can while you sit at home making your plans
And if you ever gave a damn, that was long ago, it's over and done
- Trouble on the terraces
You say you want the authorities to take action
But I don't believe you're genuinely concerned
You say you want the terraces to be closed down
But your son is one of us, so when will you learn?
Adrenaline's running high, and most got nothing to fear
It's all part of the game; it adds to the atmosphere
We got trouble on the terraces, on the terraces, on the terraces
- Watch Your Back
Everybody's talking about revolution
Everybody's talking about smash the state
Sounds to me like the final solution
Right wing, left wing, full of hate
[Chorus]
We don't wanna fight
Because you tell us to
- What's it Like to Be Old
Me mum don't like the clothes I wear.
Me dad don't like my spiky hair.
Teachers at school say I'm a fool.
But I say to them you're just uncool.
Tell me what's it like to be old
What's it like to be old
Tell me what's it like to be old.
Because you're old old old old old
- Where Are They Now
Cock Sparrer
"Where Are They Now"
I believed in julie when she said how easy it could be
And I believed in Tommy and his written words of anarchy
And I believed in Joe when he said we had to fight
And I believed in Jimmy when he told us to unite
- Working
I been working all day for me mate on the site
Running around like a blue arsed fly
I been working
And I been working all day for me mate
Every bleeding minute I been on the go
Up and down the ladder like a fiddler's elbow
I been working
