Gareth Brown Says Lyrics
All of your friends are cunts
Your mother is a ball-point pen thief
Notoriety follows you
Like beatings follow rain
Bring on the big-hitters
You've got a prophets name
All of your tales are lies
You've never been to Alton towers
Michael Caine doesn't follow you
And you've never been to Spain
Bring on the go-getters
You've got a prophets name
Gareth Brown says
Your mother is a ball-point pen thief
Notoriety follows you
Like beatings follow rain
You've got a prophets name
You've never been to Alton towers
Michael Caine doesn't follow you
And you've never been to Spain
You've got a prophets name

The best ever opening line of a song ever. No arguement is possible.
I get the impression that this is probably aimed at those sort of posters who make up wild claims about themselves online to make themselves more interesting.
On the live at ULU part of the McLuskyism compilation, the band reveal this song is actually about Gareth Edwards, the Welsh ruby player.
Falco got his name wrong in the song title.
The opening line does indeed kick ass.
Something tells me that this song is less about the internet and more about people who make up stories about themselves in general.
In real life.
Well yes, but it spills over onto here as well. They're all the same sort of people. I like the whole mediocreness of them making up that they've been to Alton Towers. Very amusing. People are crap.
They watch Sex and The City.
Alton Towers is a theme park in England. Just so you know.
