Two Nations Lyrics - Artist : Streets, The
Two nations divided by a common language, oi
And about two-hundred years of new songs and dances But the difference is language are just the bits you got wrong 'Cause we were the ones who invented the language Sorry, oi, that's just my idea of a joke But you guys are different to us "across the pond" folk And I keep having to say that I'm only joking In New York when I have to buy fags on the road, oi Biggie, man, God bless America and that But you lot keep killing all your best talent We build up our stars and then papers sweep on 'em And you build up stars and maniacs shoot 'em I don't know much about nines and MACs But we still got two twos we're inclined to pack And I much prefer the profit margin nowadays And crystal meth, it's all hype with crack It was no shock to me when we flew to the door At the Nas gig where mans were shooting a war Since it got reported in the latest news story That London is now more dangerous than New York Two nations divided by a common language, oi And about two-hundred years of new songs and dances But the difference is language are just the bits you got wrong 'Cause we were the ones who invented the language Understated is how we prefer to be That's why I've sold three million and you've never heard of me The paparazzi shoot me, the girls all loot on me But don't shoot idols, we fight football rivalries The word "whack" means to come back home And I wrote the Ten Whack Commandments on my own I was in front of the bloke shooting at the Nas show They weren't shooting at me, it was honour that night though We don't shoot idols, happily shoot instead Up my road, the police just shot a yute dead 'Cause they guessed he might have been a bit of a terrorist there Does my bomb look big in this bag then? But we love Biggie, Johnny Cash and Stevie Wonder It's no biggie we got no cash and it's no wonder 'Cause I'm proud we gave you people like John Lennon Even though you shot him as well Two nations divided by a common language, oi And about two hundred years of new songs and dances But the difference is language are just the bits you got wrong 'Cause we were the ones who invented the language |
