Lets get this party started!

Get smashed, gate crash!

Get smashed, gate crash!

On Friday night and we just arrived,
there's a fair few girls but mostly guys,
got supplies now we in the drive,
I hope we got the house number right.

Knock loud and ring the bell,
door swings and the music swells out,
it's quite catchy if you could tell,
in the hall welcome to hell.

Welcome to our world,
we are the wasted youth,
and we are the future too.
Welcome to our world,
we are the wasted youth,
Lyricsand we are the future.

let's get this party started
and rip the place apart.
cut the brakes, text your mates
let's tear this house apart

We're drinking, screaming, shagging,
we don't care what we doing,
don't care when they come back,
our parents will be screwing.

People being sick on the landing carpet,
smoking up in the outside shed,
passing out in the upstairs toilet,
getting laid on the parent's bed.

Smashing up all the porcelain china,
we drank the alcohol cabinet clean,
but still that felt minor,
'til we put the hifi through the tv screen.

Welcome to our world,
we are the wasted youth,
and we are the future too.
Welcome to our world,
we are the wasted youth,
and we are the future.

We feel so damn invincible.
We are not responsible.

Get smashed, gate crash!

Get smashed, gate crash!

Get smashed, gate crash!

She will be sick on the landing carpet,
smoking up in the outside shed,
passing out in the upstairs toilet,
getting laid on the parent's bed.

Smashing up all the porcelain china,
we drank the alcohol cabinet clean,
but still that felt minor,
'til we put the hifi through the tv screen

That boys a Hoxton Hero,
skinny fit jeans and dressed in pink,
how he dresses I care zero,
as long as he don't steal my drink.

That girls an Indie Cindy,
Lego haircut and polka-dot dress,
I don't care if she thinks she's indie,
how she's different is anyones guess.

You've got you skin tights, colours on the floor,
with all your white lines, every slut and whore,
all the band boys in your specs and sneakers,
we got your back, now its time to blow the speaker,

I went to a rave and it got real moody,
how can a screwface have a good time?
Was he deprived of his mothers boobie?
I doubt he's lived a life of grime,
I went to a gig but nobody danced,
Everybody was far too cool,
all the kiddies they just stood there,
Is it the same at their public school?

I stay hard like metal,
you could never merk me,
dirty like skettle,
I kill germs like dettol,
get mucky,
but I will never settle.

I'm an indie limey,
yeah but i like it grimey,
and i rave with a grin,
I'm not too cool for the next big thing,
I dont wanna f**k about,
I wanna good time and thats why I'm out,
and you look silly,
When you put on your best myspace pout

. . .


Where's your head?
Where's your head?
Where's your head?
Where's your head?
Is it off?
Is it on have you lost it?

Where's your head?
Where's your head?
Where's your head?
Where's your head?
Is it buried in the sand?
Up your arse?
Are you brain dead?

Uh oh it's us again
Yo the same five kids from the HDKN,
And we're on this game like a kid with a brand new Playstation,
Get to know that we're coming for you
Because I've got more bars that JD Wheatherspoons,
More lines than Camden could do,
More word that Google could search through.

Stop,
Stop right now,
No you don't.

And I thought I told you,
The game is over,
Game is over,
Showed you,
Showed you,
The game is over.

Where's your head?
Where's your head?
Where's your head?
Where's your head?
Is it off?
Is it on have you lost it?

Where's your head?
Where's your head?
Where's your head?
Where's your head?
Is it buried in the sand?
Up your arse?
Are you brain dead?

You can say what you like,
We don't care now,
You can type what you type,
We don't care at all,
Still in your fucking eyeballs,
So where's your head at,
Still in your fucking eardrums,
So where's your head at.

Stop,
Stop right now,
No you don't.

And I thought I told you,
The game is over,
Game is over,
Showed you,
Showed you,
The game is over.

So where you at,
And where's your head,
Your precious indie rock's dead
And I'll fuck up your life like crystal meth,
So now it's on and I'm in the zone,
You fuck up my ears like a shit ringtone.

Stop,
Stop right now,
No you don't,
No you don't.

Uh oh it's us again yo,
Uh oh it's us again yo,
Uh oh it's us again yo,
Same five kids but a brand new show.

Uh oh it's us again yo,
Uh oh it's us again yo,
Uh oh it's us again yo,
Same five kids but a brand new show.

It's us again yo,
Uh oh it's us again yo,
Uh oh it's us again yo,
Same five kids but a brand new show.

It's us again yo,
Uh oh it's us again yo,
Uh oh it's us again yo,
Same five kids but a brand new show.

Your time is up friend all bad things must come to an end.

Your time has been so fuck you and your precious scene.

I'm walking hunted (wounded?) on the ground
But I will stand here tall
Well I will stand here tall

Well if you want war with me
If you want war with me
If you want war with me, then bring on beef
If you want war with me
If you want war then you got war.

You try to rip me but I don't tear and I don't care
My skin is thicked out, our love was lost years before (?)
This time I'm ready for your war
But now I'm ready for your war

I should have put this flame out years ago
but you burnt my house down, I won't leave
and if I stand here alone in this dust I've got nothing left to lose
nothing left to lose

Cuz I see your ways and I know your plan
cuz you've been around and I've seen this place before
I won't do this anymore
but if you want war, you got war

So bring your friends out, I'll take my place and you take yours
and launch your guts out but will the parents (?) let us war
I should have seen this years before
but now I'm ready for your war

I should have crossed these borders years ago
but you left me somewhere I don't know (?)
and as I stand here in no-mans land
I contemplate your attack

Cuz I see your ways and I know your plan
cuz you've been around and I've seen this place before
I won't do this anymore
but if you want war, you got war

You can try and hurt me
I'll come back for more

Cuz I see your ways and I know your plan
cuz you've been around and I've seen this place before
I won't do this anymore
but if you want war, you got war

Cuz I see your ways and I know your plan
cuz you've been around and I've seen this place before
I won't do this anymore
but if you want war, you got war

. . .


Come along mate,
You gotta cheer up,
I know down on your luck but,
Don't be down in the dumps,
Don't be down in the dumps,
Yeah don't be down in the dumps,
I know you're down on your luck but,
You got to listen up.

Coz real lads,
They don't sink,
They brush it off.
They hold up.
They take it on the chin.
And nice girls,
Won't leave you out of pocket,
Won't make you buy their mates all their drinks,
Then leave you there to sock it.

And OH OH OH OH!
He's only gone and done it.
She's dumped him again.
And OH OH OH OH!
He's only gone and done it again.

So tell it to me straight now,
Are you one of those guys,
Who always need the hassle and the stress in their lives?
And switches on and off from girlie to girl,
Misfortune always turning your world.

Mister Misfortune
We need to sort you,
(Check!).

And all our friends agree,
That since the age of fourteen,
You've played to lose and took the blues,
You need a slap on the cheek,
Coz now it's gone too far,
You need a swift reminder,
So lick your straightener scars,
And dry your eyeliner.

And OH OH OH OH!
He's only gone and done it.
She's dumped him again.
And OH OH OH OH!
He's only gone and done it again.

So tell it to me straight now,
Are you one of those guys,
Who always need the hassle and the stress in their lives?
And switches on and off from girlie to girl,
Misfortune always turning your world.

Mister Misfortune,
Mister Misfortune.
We need to sort you,
Mister Misfortune.

Don't be down in the dumps,
Don't be down in the dumps,
I know you're down on your luck but.

Don't be down in the dumps,
Don't be down in the dumps,
I know you're down on your luck but,
You got to listen up.

You got to listen up.

He's only gone and done it again.

So tell it to me straight now,
Are you one of those guys,
Who always need the hassle and the stress in their lives?
And switches on and off from girlie to girl,
Misfortune always turning your world.

So tell it to me straight now,

You go to listen up.

I took a call in the night
She explained to me
It turned out i had been right
I told her i already knew

Coz you know
What i know
And i know
What you did

What ya did
What ya done
What ya said before
Got me high
Left me low
Now its nevermore
Honestly now you feed me your lies
What did ya think?
I got feelings, not feeling alright
In your head
You're not right!

Her taxi's waiting
Its dark now, raining
My eyes are stone cold
I told her to leave now

Coz you know
What i know
And i know
What you did

What ya did
What ya done
What ya said before
Got me high
Left me low
Now its nevermore
Honestly now you feed me your lies
What did ya think?
I got feelings, not feeling alright
In your head
You're not right!

She always seemed to lead him astray,
She'd filled his tank up for a trip on the dual carriageway,
In his enamoured state he'd always obey,
But yeah anyway,
She'd never leave his side,
Eyelids open wide,
Eyelids open wide,
He always relied.

She's done such bad things, yeah you must understand,
She's lost his house and friends,
She'd almost made him kill a man,
Always under his skin,
She'd taken cash from him,
(Still he took her back)

And they go out tonight,
He don't even know her,
She's taken him over,
And they go out tonight,
Driving to nowhere,

She sits there silent in the passenger seat,
Eyelids stiffened and arteries replete,
Condensation on windows,
He don't feel a thing no,
Feels nothing,

He gets pulled over by the cusp of the morning,
He doesn't flinch coz he lets her do the talking,
She's got a way with words,
And they got nothing on her,
So they carry on,

And they go out tonight,
He don't even know her,
She's taken him over,
And they go out tonight,
Driving to nowhere,

Take it away,
Said take it away,
Take it away,
Before the dusk turns to day,

I'm driving alone,
I can be strong on my own,
I can be strong on my own,
I can be strong on my...

And they go out tonight,
He don't even know her,
She's taken him over,
And they go out tonight,
Driving to nowhere,

And the journey alone ain't so appealing,
He's gone he's lost all feeling,
Driving to nowhere,
Driving to nowhere.

Theres a story about a bloke named Jerry
Got slaughtered and got real lairy
In the pub he acted obsured
and he came onto a boxer's bird
so he got knocked out
face swelled up like a rainbow trout
his girl found out the truth
but he couldn't explain cause he'd lost a tooth

I wanna drink drink drink smoke fuck fight
I wanna shout, drink, scream, I wanna die!
I wanna be arrested
I wanna be molested
and my heads in pain, next weekend lets do it again!

An anecdote about a man named clive
wasnt one to usually drink drive
and after all he'd been through a stack
and so it was abit far to walk back
a month later and he's sitting in court
for the two lives he cut short
man slaughter he's convicted
for the pain that he inflicted

spinning, my head is spinning, up around around!
down to the pub
up to the club!
my stomach's turning, oh my body's burning
our liquid lives
this is how we all survive

here's a story about a chap named Bart
drank 4 pints in hour and a half
although the night had just begun
cause the local pub was open till one
the next morning out in the country
hung over and on the hunt he
was still drunk and he risked hiself
fell off his horse and shot himself

I wanna drink drink drink smoke fuck fight
I wanna shout, drink, scream, I wanna die!
I wanna be arrested
I wanna be molested
and i've damaged my brain, next weekend lets do it again!

here's a story about a girl named Kate
got wasted and got date raped
when they told the doctors she'd sued
the found no chemicals was in her bloodstream
''well nothing malicious, but the alcohol levels were suspicious!''
when asked who had hurt her
poor old Kate couldn't remember.

our liquid lives this is how we all survive
and my heads in pain, next weekend lets do it again
down to the pub
upto the club!
and i've damaged my brain, next weekend lets do it again!

spinning, my head is spinning, up around around!
down to the pub
up to the club!
my stomach's turning, oh my body's burning
our liquid lives
this is how we all survive

(Go on, drink up England! Come on, swig it up. It's what you all do best!)

Listen I've got a bit of fiscal trouble
I don't wanna sob but I need a few bob
In the last year I've seen my debt double
And I can't pay it back coz I ain't got a job
It must have been the small print I misunderstood
The offer on the leaflet looked so good
I was poor, my motor was rusting
The man on the advert looked so trusting

Isn't it funny how people spend their life away?
Buy now pay later then consolidate your life
On daytime telly the trusted man brings peace of mind
And a lifeline for those who don't work
And isn't it funny how people live a life of debt
To a person that they have never met
On a leaflet just sign on the dotted line
Stay in the red till the day that you're dead

I'm drowning deep in debt
And all I do is spend spend spend
I can't afford the life so why'd they let me lend again
I can't bank on a credit culture life of greed
I don't know how I'll cope with mortgages and mouths to feed

Isn't it funny how people spend their life away?
Buy now pay later then consolidate your life
On daytime telly the trusted man brings peace of mind
And a lifeline for those who don't work
And isn't it funny how people live a life of debt
To a person that they have never met
On a leaflet just sign on the dotted line
Stay in the red till the day that you're dead

Listen I've got a bit of fiscal trouble
I don't wanna sob but I need a few bob

And I can't pay it back coz I ain't got a job

The offer on the leaflet looked so good
I was poor, my motor was rusting
The man on the advert looked so trusting

Isn't it so funny how we people spend our life away?
Isn't it so funny how we people spend our life away?

And a lifeline for those who don't work

To a person that they have never met
On a leaflet just sign on the dotted line
Stay in the red till the day that you're dead

(Lalalalalalalalalalalala….)
And I will wait for you
And I will wait for you

I don't wanna be the boy who's always on he's own
I don't wanna wake you up so I'll sit here to dawn
I'm on my own……. Its all gone wrong

And I'm waiting here but you're walking on
But you're walking on your stepping on
And I'm waiting here but you're walking on
But you're walking on your stepping on

And now when our paths they cross you try and walk on
And now when I call you on the phone you hang up
I saw you from the car I saw you walk in the door
It hasn't been the same since you tried ending it all

Now where've you gone, your bedroom light aint on,
I don't wanna stay too long
With my head in my palms and the handbrake on
Tell myself that it's all gone wrong
Now where've you gone, it's all gone wrong

And I'm waiting here but you're walking on
But you're walking on your stepping on
And I'm waiting here but you're walking on
But you're walking on your stepping on

And now when our paths they cross you try and walk on
And now when I call you on the phone you hang up
I saw you from the car I saw you walk in the door
It hasn't been the same since you tried ending it all

And I will wait for you
And I will wait for you

(Sorry the person you have called is unavailable)

And now when our paths they cross you try and walk on
And now when I call you on the phone you hang up
I saw you from the car I saw you walk in the door
It hasn't been the same since you tried ending it all

And now when our paths they cross you try and walk on
And now when I call you on the phone you hang up
I saw you from the car I saw you walk in the door
It hasn't been the same since you tried ending it all

And I will wait for you (lalalalalala…)
And I will wait for you (lalalalalala…)

Well I don't know what I'm doing here
Well I don't know what I'm doing here
I don't know why I'm here
I will wait for you
