"Fuckin' Johnny keeps leaving these massive gaps between the songs... See? Silence. Between the songs."
If you don't like what's going down
you need to change something round
and what you can't change you've got to change the way you thought about
If you don't like what's going down
you need to change something round
and what you can't change you've got to change the way you thought about
Two days before I finally snap
We bumped a gig
I was being a twat
The bass player behind the scenes
It's Belgium, another bright screaming gang
Johnny Drum Machine keeps leaving trailing gaps
Putting face cream on between the breaks in tracks
I needed to stop this, draw the last of my ways
20 minutes to go the floor manager says
Been a long summer, sure spanned an age
Wanna dry my eyes and all the band on the stage
"Alright I wanna see how proud you Belgians are!"
Dead silence
Not very nice to feel so depressed and violent
"He's fuckin' puttin moisturiser on! He's fuckin moisturisin' his face..."
"I know.. Ridiculous"
If you don't like what's going down
you need to change something round
and what you can't change you've got to change the way you thought about
If you don't like what's going down
you need to change something round
and what you can't change you've got to change the way you thought about
"Some cunt has printed up a load of fucking shithole Streets hats..."
Oi, oi, Brought down the day before the crafts
The hats were made by Warner staff
Thought they were fakes, not thought to ask
So I tirade the audience found under the stage but I'd only just spoken
Ted Mayhem has never seen me so darn broken
The very next day in bed in London
With a girl i have little memory of
Unable to feel anything much which was the reason why I bought my first suit
wasn't thinking at that bit on stage
the fake streets hats were actually not fake!
If you don't like what's going down
you need to change something round
and what you can't change you've got to change the way you thought about
If you don't like what's going down
you need to change something round
and what you can't change you've got to change the way you thought about
If you don't like what's going down
you need to change something round
and what you can't change you've got to change the way you thought about
If you don't like what's going down
you need to change something round
and what you can't change you've got to change the way you thought about
(My ears who's that cunt? tell him to fuck off man "the streets" no look what what oh yeah no go go go yeah mate, sometimes, you know, it is made so hard)
