Picking up the story
|
from where I left off
|
it's 1990 now
|
so school can fuck off
|
I got no GCSEs
|
nothing higher than a D
|
I couldn't tell me mum
|
because she'd batter me
|
Me and ? sat on the bowling
|
green life is a shitter
|
We had five quid between us
|
bought us 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'll tell her tomorrow
|
I stumbled through the door
|
and 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 giz a kiss
|
Phoned up Martin and Rich
|
and carried on getting pissed
|
Boys I don't believe it
|
I'm gonna 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 gonna be like
|
New Kids on The Block
|
I can't be bothered
|
cuz I'm lazy
|
I hate those that hate me
|
I can't forgive and
|
it's crazy
|
baby
|
Now I'm a video star
|
|
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
|
to spite him
|
The first three months
|
you know I nearly quit
|
I played snooker with me
|
dad he said Don't be a dick
|
Unload the bullets
|
your mind is a gun
|
You're gonna shoot yourself
|
when they're number one
|
I can't be bothered
|
cuz I'm lazy
|
I hate those that hate me
|
I can't forgive and
|
it's crazy
|
baby
|
Now I'm a video star
|
|
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 with ?
|
Because as much as
|
we were loved
|
we were also hated
|
The boys got jealous
|
cuz the girls got ?
|
Now we're famous and that
|
and we're dancing and that
|
And I'm thinking I can't see
|
Why am I stood at the back
|
|
So fuck the band
|
give me some ?
|
now we're all a bag of nerves
|
and not a band of brothers
|
|
I can't be bothered
|
cuz I'm lazy
|
I hate those that hate me
|
I can't forgive and
|
it's crazy
|
baby
|
Now I'm a video star
|
|
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
|
fuck's wrong with Robbie
|
He's 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 fucked
|
and I'm only nineteen
|
I can't perform no more
|
I can't perform no more
|
|
But the boys know I'm fucked
|
and so they show me the door
|
And if truth be told
|
I wasn't fit enough to stay
|
So I put me head down
|
and walked away
|
That was the 90's
|
90 to 95
|
I can't be bothered
|
cuz I'm lazy
|
I hate those that hate me
|
I can't forgive and
|
it's crazy
|
baby
|
Now I'm a video star
|
|
Do you know who you are
|
baby
