Testi

[Verse 1]
You can watch TV and watch the media
President Bush doin' takeover
Kate Moss in ads for mascara
All my youth, the young offender
The bill payers, the drug dealers
Girls who are magazine covers
The part-time jobbers at the call center
No career plans 'cause you won't go far
Put away change for Ibiza and
Check your credit on your new Nokia
[Chorus]
You can be a follower, but who's your leader?
Break the cycle or it'll kill ya
You can be a follower, but who's your leader?
Break the cycle or it'll kill ya
[Refrain]
You leader, you lead can't, do what you do now
What really good that can happen to you?
You leader, you lead can't, do what you do now
What really good that can happen to you?
[Verse 2]
You're prime minister to your employer
Ego lovers need more power
The trendsetters make things better
Don't sell out to be product pushers
The gyro cashier and baby maker
Try something new 'cause it ain't over
All poor people from all over
Lottery's got a rollover
[Chorus]
You can be a follower, but who's your leader?
Break the cycle or it'll kill ya
You can be a follower, but who's your leader?
Break the cycle or it will kill ya
[Verse 3]
Cherokee Indians, Iraqi and Indians
Girls and me girls when they come to the fellas then
Japanese, Moroccan, Caribbean, African
That's your life but who the fuck's your president?
You don't get my life 'cause I don't have a side and I
Spread dat boy, I'm a mile wide and I
Got brown skin, I'm a west Londoner
Educated, but a refugee, still-a
You wanna war? You're old, you go
You wanna fight? You suck, you blow
[Bridge]
Ooh-uh, uh-oh, oh
N-n-nah, n-n-nah, n-nah, n-nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, n-nah, n-nah
[Bridge]
Oi, aye
[Outro]
London
Down London town
Down London town
London
Down London town
Down London town
London
