[00:00.000] 作词 : Louis Dunford
[00:00.721] 作曲 : Louis Dunford
[00:01.443]I'm in the toilets of a shit old club
[00:04.764]While all of these other boys are taking drugs
[00:09.079]I'm talking with Bossman about love and loss and
[00:13.152]Where life goes wrong
[00:17.589]'cause he works all night just to take home a wage
[00:20.724]Selling chewing gum and lollypops and cheap aftershaves
[00:24.951]To the boys in huaraches sniffing c*****e off car keys
[00:29.355]All night long
[00:33.186]And I say mate
[00:34.523]Don't you ever get sick of the sight
[00:37.570]Of the drunken fights
[00:39.652]And the smell, of shit, sick and piss
[00:44.884]There's got to be more to life than this
[00:52.931]And he said son I've got no riches to boast
[00:56.728]But see in luck and love, I swear I'm richer than most
[01:00.630]I've got a wife and two kids
[01:04.868]There's so much more to my life than this
[01:08.601]So no spray, no lay
[01:10.489]no splash, no gash
[01:12.838]Cheap aftershaves in exchange for cash
[01:16.692]I'm not making a killing bruv
[01:20.953]But I'm making a living and that's enough
[01:29.648]I'm on my way home in the backseat of a cab
[01:32.931]And I'm talking with bossman while I eat my kebab
[01:36.567]I'll ask him if he's been busy, what time he gets off and dizzy
[01:40.759]From 'round this way
[01:45.165]'cause he works all night on a twelve-hour shift
[01:48.953]With the gypsy jeans and the beauty queens and the lads on the piss
[01:52.699]They've had a couple of shandies mixed with charlie and mandy
[01:57.051]Every weekend's the same
[02:01.147]And I say, mate, don't you ever get sick of abuse from the drunken youths
[02:07.599]Leaning out your window being sick
[02:12.949]There's got to be more to life than this
[02:20.986]And he said son I've got no riches you see
[02:24.612]But my son's at school and education ain't free
[02:28.598]He'll be a doctor someday
[02:32.690]If he wants a future we've got to pay
[02:36.512]So I'll drive all night with these drunken kids
[02:40.718]Who need to stop to get cash or need to stop for a piss
[02:44.714]I'm not making a killing, bruv
[02:48.936]But I'm making a living and that's enough
[02:57.700]I'm at the counter of my local shop
[03:00.784]Where bossman's been working since we were kids in the blocks
[03:05.128]Every Saturday night he would serve me with my fake ID when I was fifteen years old
[03:13.534]And he's still there now before I go to bed
[03:16.922]And in the morning with the bakers a pint of milk and loaf of bread
[03:20.971]He sleeps and he showers then works another twenty four hours
[03:24.572]You see it's taking its toll
[03:28.938]And I say mate, don't you ever get sick of this place stacking shelves every day
[03:35.814]Come on bruv, you've got to admit, there's got to be more to life than this
[03:48.977]And he said son I'm barely making ends meet
[03:52.566]But there's a war back home and people die in the street
[03:56.680]Said I thank God every day, that me and my family have got away
[04:04.492]So I'll spend my life in this shop but it's sweet
[04:08.621]'cause I don't fight to survive and I don't fight just to eat
[04:12.725]And I'm not making a killing, bruv
[04:16.764]But I'm alive and I'm living and that's enough
