about

A rootswise punky pop paean to the fucked and faithless.

lyrics

All of the chavs and the ravers
All the ones lost in the pavements
We won't let your culture slip away
All of the fucked and the faithless
Clingin' on to tatty laces
We can't let your culture slip away

This is a homage to the ragamuffin big nothin's
Big up to takeaway tray generations
Harry met Sally in a nightclub in Newport
Down Chippy Alley was a world that we all thought was wrong
But it's alright on the night
Where are the hungriest junglists who only want to get pissed?
And big little towns, ups and downs
Just for multiple rounds with the clowns
Did you ever see the DJ look so down?

Daisy chains pursuin' fame who used to live in Pentrebane
The only way to make a name was singin' in Womanby lane
It was always tunes up in the stars
And now it's chasin' girls in bars
But the same old faces are still at large
Bouncin' on the neon tar
Baby blue tracksuit - release me from this acne
Dragon Taxis pick me up from Llanrumney
St Mellons to Ely, put your hands up if you feel me

All the nutters and spacecakers
'alf and 'alf munchers and wasters
Please don't let the city get you down
All dealer types and money makers
Local characters reppin' Cathays cause
You're the only interesting people in this town!
