Song Title :
The '80s Lyrics
Complete Album Lyrics:
Rudebox
I smoke Consulate and
Park Drive
Drank Newcy Brown,
learned how to skive
Polo mints to hide my
breath from my Mum
Did a little weed 'cause it
felt like fun
Did a little speed if my
friends had some
Nicked Volkswagon
badges, I'm a Beastie
Boys son
Me so horny, me so
young, and I still get my
washing done
Auntie Jo died of cancer,
God didn't have an
answer
Rhythm was a dancer,
any room for a chancer
That's me in the corner,
thanks Sir
Wore a Troop track suit,
British Knights shoes
Kangol hat like L.L.
Cools
Before I was having it,
having it large
They nicked the B.M.X.
from out my garage
And I knew it was Tire
from off the estate
'Cause every time I saw
him he smiled like we
were mates
From then on in, I'd have
to walk to me Nan's and
I'll dream my dreams for
a sea of prams
Like a hooligan on the
football stands and I
threw the V's to Leeds
and West Ham
And then I ran, I ran so
far away
Down Scotia Road to a
taxi bay
Then I ran again 'cause I
couldn't pay
Young Muslim didn't get
his fare that day
I apologise today
Things look better when
they start
That's how the 80's broke
my heart
And who are you calling
poof
You like Wham, man
I hate that stuff
And then my Granddad
died and left a hole in the
family
And lots of women there
to nanny me
School was a laugh, they
didn't have A.D.D
Thick was the term they
used for me
Over and over,
repeatedly, over and over
Take my breathe away,
pass the bidley bidley
bidley bidley bong
Pass it on the left hand
side
Right turn, Clyde
That girl in the fourth year
got pregnant
She was raised Catholic,
brilliant
I cried, she cried, we
cried
Her youth died
Drank cider in the
cemetery
The year above us had
discovered 'E'
And I said it weren't for
me
Twelve pounds fifty
I could rob my mum's
purse and buy one off
Chalky
Met a girl on Monday,
drank fizzy pop on
Tuesday
Fingered her on
Wednesday, and on
Thursday and Friday, and
on Saturday
Dumped by Sunday
Things look better when
they start
That's how the 80's broke
my heart
The wonder years I've
played my part
That's how the 80's broke
my heart
I lost my virginity to a girl
called Anne-Marie
Well, she said she
fancied me
And then she said "Fuck
me" and I thought fuck
me
And I'm all talk and it'll be
over too quickly
And it was but I couldn't
care less
I'd seen a girl's part,
made a mess on her
dress
Oh yes, you're now
rocking with the best
Second person in my
year that had seen a
breast
I'm in my 30s now and
I'm still impressed
Why the Falklands Mum,
and what have they done
Where do girls come,
where do girls come
from, where do girls
come from
It's the 80's what you
looking at, you mong
So young, so long, so
young, so long
Too short, so long
What you looking at, you
mong
Too short, so long, too
short, so long
So long
