Clockwork Skinhead Lyrics
Wearing braces, the red, white, and blue
Doing what he thinks he ought to do
Used to be a punk and a mod too
Or is it just a phase he's going through
Chorus
He's a Clockwork skinhead
Just a clockwork skinhead
Clockwork skinhead - got no choice
He's a Clockwork skinhead
Just a clockwork skinhead
Clockwork skinhead - One of the boys
Take him to the pub, buy him a beer
Tell him what he wants to hear
Wind him up like clockwork toy
Wants to be a man but he's just a boy
Chorus
Believes everything the papers say
What's he gonna be today
What is it hip to be
Will he be himself or will he copy me?
it's about a kid trying too hard to fit in.
or being a poser, going with what's in
I see it as either or
Yeah the same topic as Infa riot - 5 minute fashion "used to be a punk and a mod too" - completely identical as you can hear in that song. skinhead was trendy those day
Otherwise does anybody know which track is older ? This must be that.
