Before you try to criticise someone Try to understand where they're coming from Before you make a fool of yourself Take a step back, take a look at yourself x2 What are hoping to achieve? Make me fall down to my knees? Make me cry out in pain? Well I won't do that, oh what a shame I'm not gonna be just like you I'm not gonna do what you tell me to I'm gonna be my own free man I won't change for you, can't you understand? Before you try to criticise someone Try to understand where they're coming from Before you make a fool of yourself Take a step back, take a look at yourself x4

Stand Up, My Friends (free) 02:10
They poison our minds and steal our thoughts, We are theirs and there's nought we can do So sit back, relax, pull up a seat We'll just have to sit this thing through Fight for your rights, stand up my friends You gotta help yourself to be free Fight for you rights, make oppression end And claim your own liberty Laissez faire and graces and airs, And thinking you're above it all Gets you nowhere - we all stand as one And together we stay or we fall Fight for your rights, stand up my friends You gotta help yourself to be free Fight for you rights, make oppression end And claim your own liberty x2

Interior Semiotics (free) 03:42
All these crowds of hipsters are just too entertaining With their badly-composed faux-polaroid daydreams When your efforts are dull and ideas cliché Art school aspirations couldn't be further away When your cry for help's just a Facebook post And with those spelling mistakes it reads more like a bad joke You've a superficial boyfriend, and you're afraid to admit it But you only feel close to him when you're touching his...

Sometimes I feel like throwing my hands up in the air God knows, I can count on you Sometimes I feel like saying "Lord, I just don't care" You've got the love I need to see me through Sometimes I feel the water's just too rough And things go wrong, no matter what I do Sometimes I feel like throwing my hands up in the air But you've got the love I need to see me through You've got the love You've got the love, oh You've got the love You've got the love You've got the love Oh you...

Unruly boys, who will not grow up must be taken in hand And unruly girls, who will not settle down, they must be taken in hand A crack on the head, is what you get for not asking And a crack on the head, is what you get for asking Unruly boys, who will not grow up must be taken in hand And unruly girls, who will not settle down, they must be taken in hand A crack on the head, is what you get for not asking And a crack on the head, is what you get for asking And a crack on the head, is what you get for not asking And a crack on the head, is what you get for asking A crack on the head, is what you must get, why? Because of who you are A crack on the head, is what you will get, why? Because of what you are A crack on the head, because of, the things you said Things you said, the things you did Oh, unruly girls, who will not grow, must be taken in hand Unruly boys, who will not grow, must be taken in hand La la la la, la la la, ohhh Ohh, ohh La la la la, la la la, ohhh Ohh, ohh

Streets like a jungle, So call the police Following the herds down to Greece, On holiday Love in the 90's Is paranoid On sunny beaches Take your chances, Looking for Girls who want boys Who like boys to be girls Who do girls like their boys Who do boys like their girls Always should be someone, You really love Avoiding all work Cause "there's none available" Just like battery thinkers Count your thoughts, on ONE TWO THREE FOUR! Five fingers! Nothing is wasted, Only reproduced You get nasty blisters "Du bist sehr schön" But we haven't been introduced Girls who want boys Who like boys to be girls Who do girls like their boys Who do boys like their girls Always should be someone, You really love x2 Aah ah aah ah ah aah Ahh ah aah ah aah Looking for Girls who want boys Who like boys to be girls Who do girls like their boys Who do boys like their girls Always should be someone, You really love x4 Aah ah aah ah ah aah Ahh ah aah ah aah x2

*We are Sex Bob-Omb. One two three four* I, can't be sure But I think I heard you, crawl through the door You, didn't say a word And I think you tried to go to bed but instead, you went to floor You'd been out partying with the other boys again, Telling them "No, we are only friends" Making out and making noise Oh stop pretending, that this isn't really ending And I will stop resenting you, when you stop resenting me, Oh oh oh! I, waited up late Maybe, a little bit too late Till you, you finally came in Where do I end, and where do you begin? You'd been out drinking with guys I've never met Drinking beer and smoking cigarettes Killing brain cells and killing me Oh stop pretending, that this isn't really ending And I will stop resenting you, when you stop resenting me, Why don't you stop pretending, that this game is never ending, And I will stop resenting you, when you stop resenting Stop resenting Stop resenting me

I thought love was only true in fairy tales Meant for someone else but not for me Oh love was out to get me That's the way it seemed Disappointment haunted all my dreams And then I saw her face Now I'm a believer Not a trace Of doubt in my mind I'm in love, I'm a believer, I couldn't leave her if I tried I thought love was more or less a given thing It seemed the more I gave, the less I got Oh what's the use in trying? All you get is pain When I needed sunshine I got rain And then I saw her face Now I'm a believer Not a trace Of doubt in my mind I'm in love, I'm a believer, I couldn't leave her if I tried And then I saw her face Now I'm a believer Not a trace Of doubt in my mind Said I'm a believerbelieverbelieverbeliever, oh I'm a believer Said I'm a believerbelieverbelieverbeliever, oh I'm a believer Oh I'm a believer Oh I'm a believer Said I'm a believer Oh I'm a believer Said I'm a believer

Sheila (Jamie T cover) (free) 04:10
Sheila goes out with her mate Stella And gets poured all over her fella Cause she says "Man he ain't no better, Than the next man kicking up a fuss" Drunk, she stumbles down by the river Screams, calling London None of us heard her coming, I guess the carpet weren't rolled out Her lingo went from the Cockney to the Gringo And any time she sing a song the other girls they sing along And tell all the fellas the lady is single It's a fickle way to tickle on my young man's tipple She's out there doing what she like, any day, more like the night She drowned drunk sorrows that she stole, bought, borrowed She didn't like thugs, but at the same time she understood, That fellas will be fellas till the end of time And Jack had a gang that he called The Many Grams He was known as Smack Jack, the Cracker Man Life dealt him some shit hands, But the boys got them back now And Jay went the same way as Mickey and Dan, dependent men upon heroin And man Lisa had a baby with Sam, And now Jack's on his own man So well done Jack, glug down that cider You're right, "She's a slut" and you "never fucking liked her" Not like what, he stopped so shocked, Cause it turns out the last dance killed the pied piper Tough little big man, friends with your daughters Only cause they drive him to pick up all his quarters A brawler, lager lout brawler, crawl on the floor Think they're free but they ain't near the border Too young, gunned down by your hellfire corner, Always did a favour but never took an order Behave young scallywag, a fine young gal I had Gladragged up but only ever getting fag hags Hung on his shoulder, cheap price shop tag Slag better understand he came for the glamour Oh this sounds original, superficial the issue For one dear Jack, thirty-five doppelgangers Sheila goes out with her mate Stella And gets poured all over her fella Cause she says "Man he ain't no better, Than the next man kicking up a fuss" Drunk, she stumbles down by the river Screams, calling London None of us heard her coming, I guess the carpet weren't rolled out Well I've just got one more story about the girl Georgina, I've never seen a worse clean young mess Under stress at best, but she's pleased to see you With love, God bless, we lay her body to rest Now it all dear started with daddy's alcoholic, Lightweight and drinking down and numbing his brain And the doctor said he couldn't get the heart dear started Now beat up, drugged up she's feeling the strain She says "I'm in a rut, what the fuck am I supposed to do?" Suck it out, start start keep running through True, but you try it ain't easy to do, She's been buckle-belt beaten from the fight like a brat Dunno where she's going, but she knows where she's at, So Georgie, it's time to chain-react But the truth is you know she'll probably fall back, Tears stream down her face, she scream away "When I fall, no-one catch me I'm so lonely, I'll overdose slowly Get scared, I'll scream and shout" But you know it won't matter she'll be passing out I said giggidybiggedyup just another day Another sad story this tradegy Paramedics announced death at 10:30 Rip it up, kick it, to split up the views Sheila goes out with her mate Stella And gets poured all over her fella Cause she says "Man he ain't no better, Than the next man kicking up a fuss" Drunk, she stumbles down by the river Screams, calling London None of us heard her coming, I guess the carpet weren't rolled Sheila goes out with her mate Stella And gets poured all over her fella Cause she says "Man he ain't no better, Than the next man kicking up a fuss" Drunk, she stumbles down by the river Screams, calling London None of us heard her coming, I guess the carpet weren't rolled out
