Ooooo deary me, My little brother's in his bedroom smoking weed, I tell him he should get up cos it's nearly quarter past three He can't be bothered cos he's high on THC. I ask him very nicely if he'd like a cup of tea, I can't even see you cos the room is so smokey, Don't understand how one can watch so much TV, My baby brother Alfie how I wish that you could see.
Oooooo I only say it cos I care, So please can you stop pulling my hair. Now, now there's no need to swear, Please don't despair my dear Mon frere.
Ooooo Alfie get up it's a brand new day, I just can sit back and watch your life waste away You need to get a job because the bills need to get paid. Get off your lazy arse, Alfie please use your brain Surely there's some walls out there that you can go spray, I'm feeling guilty for leading you astray, Now how the hell do you ever expect that you'll get laid, When all you do is stay and play on your computer games?
Oooooo I only say it cos I care, So please can you stop pulling my hair. Now, now there's no need to swear, Please don't despair my dear Mon frere.
Oh little brother please refrain from doing that, I'm trying to help you out so can you stop being a twat. It's time that you and I sat down and had a little chat, Just look me in the eyes take off that stupid thick hat.
Oooooo I only say it cos I care, So please can you stop pulling my hair. Now, now there's no need to swear, Please don't despair my dear Mon frere.
I don't wanna start a fight, But in the background I can hear you chatting shite, I hear it every night. And you think that your really cool, You've been doing it since we were both at school, Now who looks like a fool.
(Chorus) You're no friend of mine girl And I've known it for a while girl, You're just a waste of time girl Why don't you have another line girl.
Tell me what did you expect? Have you got no self respect? Reputation to protect? Soon you'll be a nervous wreck. (x2)
What happened to the good old days? I was hoping this was just a stupid phase Who are you anyway? I know you've heard this all before I know some people who are calling you a whore Don't know you anymore
(Chorus) You're no friend of mine, girl And I've know it for a while, girl You're just a waste of time, girl Why don't you have another line, girl?
Tell me what did you expect Have you got no self respect? Reputation to protect? Soon you'll be a nervous wreck. (x2)
Tell me what did you expect Have you got no self respect? Reputation to protect? Soon you'll be a nervous wreck. (x2)
A picture paints a thousand words, As one door opens, another one closes, And two wrongs don't make a right Now good things come to those who wait, Take the highs with the lows dear, You'll get what your given and everything's gonna be alright.
What the fuck do you know? Just cos you're old you think your wise, But who the hell are you though, I didn't even ask for your advice You wanna keep your mouth shut, You wanna take your thoughts elsewhere, Cos you're doing in my nut, And do you think I care?
(Chorus) Say what you say, Do what you do Feel what you feel, As long as it's real. I said take what you take And give what you give Just be what you want, Just as long as it's real.
Now by a horse, I once was told That all that glitters is not gold And all that is to fear is fear itself. This horsey also told me, I should keep my friends close but my enemies closer, So as to protect myself.
What the fuck do you know? Just cos you're old you think your wise, But who the hell are you though, I didn't even ask for your advice You wanna keep your mouth shut, You wanna take your thoughts elsewhere, Cos you're doing in my nut, And do u think care?
(Chorus) Say what you say, Do what you do Feel what you feel, As long as it's real. I said take what you take And give what you give Just be what you want, Just as long as it's real.
(Chorus x3) Say what you say, Do what you do Feel what you feel, As long as it's real. I said take what you take And give what you give Just be what you want, Just as long as it's real.
Sometimes I find myself sittin' back and reminscing Especially when I have to watch other people kissin' And I remember when you started callin' me your miss's All the play fightin' all the flirtatious disses I'd tell you sad stories about my childhood I don't know why I trusted you but I knew that I could We'd spend the whole weekend lying in our own dirt I was just so happy in your boxers and your t shirt Dreams Dreams Of when we had just started things Dreams of you and me It seems It seems That I can't shake those memories I wonder if you have the same dreams too The littlest things that take me there I know it sounds lame but its so true I know its not right but it seems unfair That things are reminding me of you Sometimes I wish we could just pretend Even if only for one weekend So come on tell me Is this the end Drinkin' tea in bed watching DVD's When I discovered all your dirty grotty magazines You take me out shopping and all we'd buy is trainers As if we ever needed anything to entertain us The first time that you introduced me to your friends And you could tell that I was nervous so you held my hand When I was feeling down you'd make that face you do There's no one in the world who could replace you Dreams Dreams Of when we had just started things Dreams of me and you It seems It seems That I can't shake those memories I wonder if you feel the same way too The littlest things that take me there I know it sounds lame but its so true I know its not right but it seems unfair That things are reminding me of you Sometimes I wish we could just pretend Even if only for one weekend So come on tell me Is this the end
I've been thinking that you've crossed the line, if you disagree well that will be just fine, cos you waste my time and waste my money and your not too cool and your not so funny! Spreading your seed all over the town getting too greedy and messing around: Oh my gosh you must be joking me if you think that you'll be poking me.
Don't take me on no, no Don't take me on no, no Don't take me ooon Shattered the lie but you think I don't already know, Don't try to deny cos my fuse is ready to blow Its your turn to learn I think that you know where to go It's a shame, shame, shame for you
Please don't come around and knock on my door cos I don't want to have to pick you up of the floor, when you ask if we can still be lovers, I'll have to introduce my brothers, Think that they could teach you a lesson or two, By the time they've finished you'll be black and blue You'll be crying like a baby, A sea of tears they'll call the navy in.
Don't take me on no, no Don't take me on no, no Don't take me ooon Shattered the lie but you think I don't already know, Don't try to deny cos my fuse is ready to blow It's your turn to learn I think that you know where to go It's a shame shame shame for you
Don't take me on no, no Don't take me on no, no Don't take me ooon Shattered the lie but you think I don't already know, Don't try to deny cos my fuse is ready to blow It's your turn to learn but I think that you know where to go It's a shame shame shame for you
Friday night last orders at the pub, Get in the car and drive to the club, There's a massive crowd outside so we get in to the queue It's quarter past 11 now we won't get in till quarter to.
It's quarter to and we get to the front, Girl on a guest list dressed like a c*** She asked security to check in my shoes, You can play this game with me but you know you're gonna lose.
Looked me up and down, I don't make a sound, There's a lesson that I want you to learn, If you're gonna play with fire then you're gonna get burned,
(Chorus) Don't try and test me cos you'll get reaction, Another drink and I'm ready for action, I don't know who you think you are, But making people scared wont get you very far.
Ooooooooooooo Ooooooooooooo
In the club make our way to the bar, Good dancing love but you should of worn a bra. Guy on the mike and he's making too much noise, There's these girls in the corner wanting attention from the boys.
I see these girls and they're shouting through the crowd, Don't understand why they're being really loud. They make their way over to me, They try to push me out the way, I'll push her back, she looks at me and says, What you tryna say?
Looked me up and down, I don't make a sound, There's a lesson that I want you to learn, If you're gonna play with fire then you're gonna get burned,
(Chorus x2) Don't try and test me cos you'll get reaction, Another drink and I'm ready for action, I don't know who you think you are, But making people scared wont get you very far.
Now listen I think you and me have come to the end of our time, What d'you want some kind of reaction? Well ok that's fine, Alright how would it make you feel if I told you that you never ever made me come? In the year and a half that we spent together, Yeah I never really had much fun. All those times that I said I was sober, Well I'm afraid I lied, I'd be lying next to you, you next to me, All the time I was high as a kite. I could see it in your face when you give it to me gentle, Yeah you really must think your great, Let's see how you feel in a couple of weeks, When I work my way through your mates. (Chorus) I never wanted it to end up this way, You've only got yourself to blame, I'm gonna tell them that your rubbish in bed now and that your small in the game. I saw you thought this was gonna be easy, Well your out of luck. Yeah lets rewind, let's turn back time to when you couldn't get it up, You know what it shoulda ended there, That's when I shoulda shown you the door. If that weren't enough to deal with, You became premature. I'm sorry if you feel that I'm being kinda mental, But you left me in such a state. But now I'm gonna do what you did to me, I'm gonna reciprocate. (Chorus) I never wanted it to end up this way, You've only got yourself to blame, I'm gonna tell them that your rubbish in bed now and that your small in the game. Your not big your not clever, No u aint a big brother Not big what so ever. Ahhhhhhhhh ... I'm sorry if you feel that I'm being kinda mental, But you left me in such a state. But now I'm gonna do what you did to me, I'm gonna reciprocate. (Chorus) I never wanted it to end up this way, You've only got yourself to blame, I'm gonna tell them that your rubbish in bed now and that your small in the game. Your not big your not clever, No u aint a big brother Not big what so ever.
Do you think, everything, everyone, is going mental? It seems to me that it's spiralling outta control and it's inevitable Now don't you think This time is yours, this time is mine? It's temperamental It seems to me, we're on all fours Crawling on our knees Someone help us please
Oh Jesus Christ almighty Do I feel alright? No not slightly I wanna get a flat I know I can afford it It's just the bureaucrats who won't give me a mortgage
It's very funny cos I got your fuckin' money And I'm never gonna get it just 'cause of my bad credit Oh well I guess I mustn't grumble I suppose that's just the way the cookie crumbles.
Oh yes, I'm fine Everything's just wonderful I'm having the time of my life
Don't you want something else? Something new, than what we've got here And don't you feel it's all the same, Some sick game and it's not insincere? I wish I could change the ways of the world Make it a nice place Until that day, I guess we stay Doing what we do Screwing who we screw
Why can't I sleep at night? Don't say it's gonna be alright I wanna be able to eat spaghetti bolognaise And not feel bad about it for days and days and days
In the magazines they talk about weight loss If I buy those jeans I can look like Kate Moss Oh no it's not the life that I chose But I guess that's the way that things go
Oh yes, I'm fine Everything's just wonderful I'm having the time of my life
Oh yes, I'm fine Everything's just wonderful I'm having the time of my life
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba [etc.]
Oh Jesus Christ almighty Do I feel alright? No not slightly I wanna get a flat I know I can afford it It's just the bureaucrats that won't give me a mortgage
It's very funny cos I got your fuckin' money And I'm never gonna get it just because of my bad credit Oh well I guess I mustn't grumble I suppose that's just the way the cookie crumbles
Well I guess it's just the way that things go I suppose it's the way the cookie crumbles Well I guess it's just the way that things go I suppose that's the way the cookie crumbles
Riding through the city on my bike all day Cause the filth took away my licence It doesn't get me down and I feel ok Cause the sights that I'm seeing are priceless
Everything seems to look as it should But I wonder what goes on behind doors A fella looking dapper, but he's sittin with a slapper Then I see it's a pimp and his crack whore
You might laugh you might frown Walkin' round London town
(Chorus) Sun is in the sky oh why oh why ? Would I wanna be anywhere else Sun is in the sky oh why oh why ? Would I wanna be anywhere else
When you look with your eyes Everything seems nice But if you look twice you can see it's all lies
There was a little old lady, who was walkin down the road She was struggling with bags from Tesco There were people from the city havin lunch in the park I believe that it's called al fresco Then a kid came along to offer a hand
But before she had time to accept it hits her over the head, doesn't care if she's dead Cause he's got all her jewellery and wallet
You might laugh you might frown walkin round London town
(Chorus) Sun is in the sky oh why oh why ? Would I wanna be anywhere else Sun is in the sky oh why oh why ? Would I wanna be anywhere else
When you look with your eyes Everything seems nice But if you look twice you can see it's all lies
Life, that's city life, yeah that's city life, that's city life Life, that's city life, yeah that's city life, that's city life
(Chorus) (x2) Sun is in the sky oh why oh why ? Would I wanna be anywhere else Sun is in the sky oh why oh why ? Would I wanna be anywhere else (x2) When you look with your eyes Everything seems nice But if you look twice you can see it's all lies
Alright so this is a song about anyone, it could be anyone You're just doing your own thing and someone comes out of the blue They're like, "Alright What are ya saying? Yeah can I take your digits?" And you're like, "No not in a million years, you're nasty Please leave me alone"
Cut to the pub on a lad's night out Man at the bar cause it was his shout Clocks this bird and she looked OK She caught him looking and walked his way "Alright darlin', you gonna buy us a drink then?" "Er no, but I was thinking about buying one for your friend..."
She's got no taste, hand on his waist Tries to pull away but her lips on his face "If you insist I'll have a white wine spritzer" "Sorry love, but you ain't a pretty picture"
You can't knock 'em out, you can't walk away Try desperately to think of the politest way to say Just get out my face, just leave me alone And no you can't have my number "Why?" Cause I lost my phone
"Oh yeah, actually yeah um, I'm pregnant Um, yeah I'm having a baby in like 6 months so no, yeah, yeah..."
I recognize this guy's way of thinking As he walks over her face starts sinking She's like, "Oh here we go..." It's a routine check that she already knows, She's thinking, "They're all the same"
"Yeah you alright baby? You look alright still, yeah what's your name?" She looks in her bag, takes out a fag Tries to get away from the guy on a blag, can't find a light "Here, use mine" "You see the thing is I just don't have the time"
You can't knock 'em out, you can't walk away Try desperately to think of the politest way to say Just get out my face, just leave me alone And no you can't have my number Cause I lost my phone
Go away now, let me go Are you stupid? Or just a little slow? Go away now, I've made myself clear Nah, it's not gonna happen Not in a million years
You can't knock 'em out, you can't walk away Try desperately to think of the politest way to say Just get out my face, just leave me alone And no you can't have my number Cause I lost my phone
You can't knock 'em out, you can't walk away Try desperately to think of the politest way to say Just get out my face, just leave me alone And no you can't have my number Cause I lost my phone
When you first left me I was wanting more but you were fucking that girl next door What'd you do that for When you first left me I didn't know what to say I'd never been on my own that way just sat by myself all day I was so lost back then but with a little help from my friends I found the light in the tunnel at the end Now you're calling me up on the phone so you can have a little whine and a moan and it's only because you're feeling alone At first when I see you cry yeah it makes me smile yeah it makes me smile At worst I feel bad for a while but then I just smile I go ahead and smile Whenever you see me you say that you want me back and I tell you it don't mean Jack NO it don't mean Jack I couldn't stop laughing no I just couldn't help myself see you messed up my mental health I was quite unwell I was so lost back then but with a little help from my friends I found the light in the tunnel at the end now you're calling me up on the phone so you can have a little whine and a moan and its only because youre feeling alone At first when I see you cry yeah it makes me smile yeah it makes me smile At worst I feel bad for a while but then I just smile I go ahead and smile
