Coloured Souls

Sometimes we jump the train fare

To get to where were going

Sometimes we're hooded up

And so you hear the sirens start blowing

Get knocked up, we knock you girl up

Just to find a place to stay

House prices rising, wages stay

The same as how is it today

We are all just coloured souls

In these black and white towns

We roam

We are all just coloured souls

In these black and white towns

We roam

Sometimes we reminisce about our school days

When we were care free

'Cause thirteen grand a year means you are

Left with nothing but worries

And so we smoke away our problems

Or we drink until the sun comes up

Why does it always feel like who we've got

Is waiting for our numbers to come up

So many young faces all trying to find their places

See how these places forgot

About these youths they created

We are all just coloured souls

In these black and white towns

We roam

We are all just coloured souls

In these black and white towns

We roam

With the playstation generation

Xboxed up on your cctv

You can file us under hoody or

Asbo as you take away our identity

And still we sing

We are just coloured souls

In these black and white towns

We roam

We are just coloured souls

In these black and white towns

We roam

We roam

We ro-o-o-o-o-oam

We ro-o-o-o-o-oam

We ro-o-o-o-o-oam

We roam

We are all just coloured souls

In the black and white

Black and white towns

We roam

We are just coloured souls

In the black and white

Black and white, black and white towns

We roam

We are all just coloured souls

In these black and white, black and white towns

We roam

We are just coloured souls

In the black and white

Black and white towns

We roam
