- You people crack me up
- You know that, don’t you?

- Beady-eyed
- Check it, I’ve got some observations for you
- I tried to act sociable with the guys down the local
- But soon realised I was being too hopeful
- I don’t know cars and I can’t throw darts
- So I knew in my heart that I stood no chance
- I tagged along with a gang of vagabonds
- But my plans to bond went badly wrong
- I got nervous trying to rob purses
- Long before the cops surfaced
- I thought “it’s not worth it”

- I can’t believe what wankers they were

- Are you ever in a happy mood?
- I met some UK Hip Hop heads on the Internet

- She was a leggy wench
- He was amongst the most scary men I’ve ever met
- They wanted me to wear leather kecks

- And be their ‘special friend’
- At this point I thought I needed help
- None of these subcultures offered me a spot where I could be myself
- I told them all “Fine, do what you like to
- But don’t let the limits of your pastime define you”
- Yo, where’s all the normal people gone man?
- The fuck’s up with all these…tributaries
- Tribulations of people nowadays
- It’s all so wrong
- It’s all so gloriously wrong
