The 90s

Picking up the story from where I left off It’s 1990 now

so school can **** off I got no GCSEs' nothing higher than a ‘D’

I couldn’t tell me mum because she’d batter me

Me and Tate sat on the bowling green'

life was a ****ter We had five quid between us and bought six cans of bitter

I took me ten Benson home and I smoked through the sorrow

If I could just avoid me Mum' maybe I’d tell her tomorrow

I stumbled through the door I said \"Mum it’s like this\"

She said “That man’s been on the phone and you’ve made the list

You’re in that boy band son' come and give us a kiss.

Phoned up Martin and Rich and carried on getting pissed

Boys I don’t believe it' I’m goin’ to be famous

Pick you up in a Porsche and buy you lots of trainers

I met the other guys' one seemed like a cock

I think it’s going to be like New Kids On The Block

I can’t be bothered ’cause I’m lazy

I hate those that hate me

I can’t forgive and it’s crazy' baby

Now I’m a video star

Baa baa baa' ba baa baa

Do you know who you are' baby

I adopted four brothers' some I liked more than others

One was like a brother from another mother

But the lead singer made it hard to like him And I still loved him'

despite him The first three months'

you know I nearly quit I played snooker with my Dad'

he said “Don’t be a **** Unload the bullets'

you’re mind is a gun

You’re gonna shoot yourself when they’re number one?

I can’t be bothered ’cause I’m lazy

I hate those that hate me

I can’t forgive and it’s crazy' baby

Now I’m a video star

Baa baa baa' ba baa baa

Do you know who you are' baby

Now it’s dinner with Versace lunch with Princess Diana

And I’m gonna get battered if I go out in my manor

‘Cause as much as we were loved we were also hated

The boys got jealous ‘cause the girls got plated

And now we’re famous and that' and we’re dancing and that

And I’m thinking I can sing why am I stood at the back

So **** the band give me Sambuka and gak

Now were all a bag of nerves and not a band of brothers'

I can’t be bothered ’cause I’m lazy

I hate those that hate me

I can’t forgive and it’s crazy' baby

Now I’m a video star

Baa baa baa' ba baa baa

Do you know who you are' baby

And now it’s breaking my heart because the dream’s turned to shit

It ain’t broke but I’ll break it in a little bit

And I’m always in trouble but I’ve stopped saying sorry

Everybody’s worried “What the ****’s wrong with

Robbie He not answering his phone' he’s not talking to me

I saw him on the telly at Glastonbury?

And now I’m running away from everything that I’ve been

And I’m pissed and I’m ******' and I’m only nineteen

I can’t conform no more' I can’t perform no more

But the boys know I’m ****** and so they show me the door

And if the truth be told I wasn’t fit enough to stay

So I put my head down and walked away

That was the 90's' 90 to 95

I can’t be bothered ’cause I’m lazy

I hate those that hate me

I can’t forgive and it’s crazy' baby

Now I’m a video star

Baa baa baa' ba baa baa

Do you know who you are' baby
