Fake Streets Hats Lyrics
("Fuckin' Johnny keeps leaving these massive gaps between the songs... It all plays dead like that. See? Silence. Between the songs.")
If you don't like what's going down
You need to change something 'round
And what you can't change
You've got to change the way you thought about
If you don't like what's going down
You need to change something 'round
And what you can't change
You've got to change the way you thought about
Two days before I finally snapped
From bumped a gig, I was being a twat
The bass player declined to seat the whole camp
Is Belgium, another bright screaming gang
Johnny Drum Machine keeps leaving trailing gaps
Putting face cream on between the breaks in tracks
I needed to stop this, draw the last of my ways
20 minutes to go the floor manager says
Been a long summer, sure spanned an age
I wanna dry my eyes and all the band on stage
("Alright I wanna see how proud you Belgians are!")
Dead silence, not very nice to feel so depressed and violent
("He's fuckin' puttin' moisturizer on! He's fuckin' moisturizin' his face..."
"I know... Ridiculous.")
If you don't like what's going down
You need to change something 'round
And what you can't change
You've got to change the way you thought about
If you don't like what's going down
You need to change something 'round
And what you can't change
You've got to change the way you thought about
("Some cunt has printed up a load of fucking shithole Streets hats...")
Oi, oi, Amsterdam the day before the crash
The hats were made by Warner staff
Thought they were fakes, not thought to ask
So I tirade the audience found under the stage
But I'd only just woken
Ted Mayhem has never seen me so darn broken
The very next day in bed in London
With a girl I have little memory of
Unable to feel anything much which was the reason I bought my first suit
I wasn't thinking at that bit on stage
The fake streets hats were actually not fake!
If you don't like what's going down
You need to change something 'round
And what you can't change
You've got to change the way you thought about
If you don't like what's going down
You need to change something 'round
And what you can't change
You've got to change the way you thought about
If you don't like what's going down
You need to change something 'round
And what you can't change
You've got to change the way you thought about
If you don't like what's going down
You need to change something 'round
And what you can't change
You've got to change the way you thought about
("Who's that cunt? Tell him to fuck off, man."
"The Streets!"
"Oh yeah no go go go yeah... mate, sometimes, you know, it is made so hard...")
You need to change something 'round
And what you can't change
You've got to change the way you thought about
If you don't like what's going down
You need to change something 'round
And what you can't change
You've got to change the way you thought about
From bumped a gig, I was being a twat
The bass player declined to seat the whole camp
Is Belgium, another bright screaming gang
Johnny Drum Machine keeps leaving trailing gaps
Putting face cream on between the breaks in tracks
20 minutes to go the floor manager says
Been a long summer, sure spanned an age
I wanna dry my eyes and all the band on stage
("Alright I wanna see how proud you Belgians are!")
Dead silence, not very nice to feel so depressed and violent
"I know... Ridiculous.")
You need to change something 'round
And what you can't change
You've got to change the way you thought about
If you don't like what's going down
You need to change something 'round
And what you can't change
You've got to change the way you thought about

You've got to change the way you thought about
