The British All-American Homeboy Crowd Songtext

von The Wildhearts

Feel a little too white, my chin's a little too tight
I've got a mouth and I'm pissed, don't gotta sit on your wrist
[... funk], hell, it's Marley and punk
Guess I'm a little unhip to be on that kinda trip

We sing, we dance you can see the whites of our [pants]
We [rock] like we stay got no [...] out of LA
[...] in the monster raving party
'cos it's hard to be proud in the all-American home boy crowd

[Chorus]
[beat it!](all-American home boy crowd)
(all-American home boy crowd)
(all-American home boy crowd) can we be walking the [.], can we be talking aloud?
We're the all-American home boy crowd, check it!

[. down], why they colour them brown
Check out the shoes that I wear, throw me a five in the air
We dance, we sing, we confuse our culture and dream

We learn as we're allowed in the all-American home boy crowd
I forget that we be just as English as mustard and tea
'cos it's hard to be proud in the all-American home boy crowd

[Chorus]
British...
(all-American home boy crowd) sing it
(all-American home boy crowd) I wanna see some hands
(all-American home boy crowd) and electric guitar
(all-American home boy crowd) there's [...] there's wankers
(all-American home boy crowd) don't be [dissing] our hats now
(all-American home boy crowd) bang it, bang it!
(all-American home boy crowd) a-do you know what you are?
(all-American home boy crowd) you are what you is

"Perhaps one of the most interesting words in the English language today is the word "fuck". It is one of those magical words which, just by its sound, can describe pain, pleasure, hate and love. It can be used as a verb, both intransitive (Mary was fucked by John), and transitive (John fucked Mary), It can be an action verb (John really gives a fuck), as an adverb (Mary is fucking interested in John), or as a noun (Mary is a fine fuck). It can also be used as an adjective (Mary was a fucking beautiful girl). As you can see, there are not many words with the versatility of "fuck". Besides the sexual meaning, there are the following uses: fraud: "I got fucked at the used car lot"; dismay: "oh, fuck it"; trouble: "I guess I'm fucked now"; aggression: "fuck you!"; difficulty: "I don't understand this fucking job"; displeasure: "What the fuck is going on here?"; incompetence: "[...] fuck off"; ignorance: "fuck if I know"; apathy: "who gives a fuck?"; defiance: "the fuck you can!". I know you can think of many more uses, but with all these uses, how can anyone be offended when you say "fuck"? We can use this word more often in our daily speech [...]"
