We are the same

lyrics

I wont be going to the pub today
Spent the last of my money on the lottery
I know, yes I know it's the only way
That I can be as rich as the bastards who say
Ain't life a bitch, flashy motors, a load of tossers
Not like you and me

We are the same - We won’t change!
We are the same - We won’t change!

A gambling man, no not me
I stuck a tenner on the nose of a horse in the 3:30
At chepstow, you should have seen the bugger go
That hope inside of me
Like on xmas day when I was 3 years old, so I'm told
That horse it ruled my world

We are the same always get the blame
We are just normal working men
A laugh with the lads, a night with the bird
A pint at the weekend
It seems to come and go, so quick you know
Before you know it's over again, You've seen your friends,
back to the grind again

We all live the same old dream
A few pound in my pocket at the end of the week
Would see me through, there's a lot more I'd like to do
Like fly off on holiday
To the places I've only seen on the telly, the BBC
They're not meant for you and me

A laugh with the lads, a night in with the birds
And a pint at the weekend
That's the life I know, that's how it goes
I know that it will never change
200 miles to see a band
Sitting on your arse in the back of a van
In our eyes, the music’s good
Some folk will never understand
Our loyalty, our dedication
Our anger, our frustration
The way we think, the beer we drink
It's all a part of being a Skinhead!
