Songtexte

Hello, hello My name's Terry and I'm a law abider There's nothing I like more than getting fired up on beer And when the weekends here I exercise my right to get paralytic and fight Good bloke fairly But I get well lairy when geezers look at me funny Bounce 'em round like bunnies I'm likely to cause mischief Good clean grief you must believe and I ain't no thief Law abiding and all, all legal And who cares about my liver when it feels good What you need is some real manhood Rasher rasher, Barney and Kasha putting peoples backs up Public disorder, I'll give you public disorder I down eight pints and run all over the place Spit in the face of an officer See if that bothers ya 'Cause I never broke a law in my life Someday I'm gonna settle down with a wife Come on lads, lets have another fight (Eh, hello) My name's Tim and I'm a criminal In the eyes of society I need to be in jail For the choice of herbs I inhale This ain't no wholesale operation Just a few eighths and some playstations' my vocation I pose a threat to the nation And down the station the police hold no patience Let's talk space and time I like to get deep sometimes and think about Einstein And Carl Young And old kung fu movies I like to see Pass the hydrator please Yeah, I'm floating on thin air Going to Amsterdam in the new year Top gear there 'Cause I take pride in my hobby Home made bongs using my engineering degree Dear leaders, please legalise weed for these reasons Like I was saying to him I told him, "top with me and you won't leave" So I smacked him in the head and downed another carling Bada bada bing for the lad's night Mad fight, his face's a sad sight Vodka and snake bite Going on like a right geez, he's a twat Shouldn't have looked at me like that Anyway, I'm an upstanding citizen If a war came along I'd be on the front line with 'em Can't stand crime either them hooligans on heroin Drugs and criminals, those thugs on the penny coloured will be the downfall of society I've got all the anger pent up inside of me You know I don't see why I should be the criminal How can something with no recorded fatalities be illegal? And how many deaths are there per year from alcohol? I just completed gran tourismo on the hardest setting We pose no threat on my settee Oh the pizza's here, will someone let him in please? We didn't order chicken Not a problem we'll pick it out I doubt they meant to mess us about After all, we're all adults not louts As I was saying, we're friendly peaceful people We're not the ones out there causing trouble We just sit in this hazy bubble with our quarters Discussing how beautiful Gail Porter is Mtv, bbc 2, channel 4 is on until six in the morning Then at six in the morning the sun dawns and it's my bedtime Causing trouble, your stinking rabble Boys saying I'm the lad who's spoiling it You're on drugs, it really bugs me when people try and tell me I'm a thug Just for getting drunk I like getting drunk 'Cause I'm an upstanding citizen If a war came along I'd be on the front line with 'em Now Terry you're repeating yourself But that's okay, drunk people can't help that A chemical reaction inside your brain causes you to forget what you're saying What? I know exactly what I'm saying! I'm perfectly sane! You stinking student lameo Go get a job and stop robbing us of our taxes Erm, well actually according to research Government funding for further education pales in insignificance When compared to how much they spend on repairing Lairy drunk people at the weekend In casualty wards all over the land Why you cheeky little swine, come here I'm gonna batter you. come here
