You wake up in the morning call your Dad or your Mum.
They say "Have you found a job yet?" you say "Shove it up your bum".
Because you'll never join the rat race, and conformity kills.
Then you ask them for some money 'cos you've gotta pay the bills.
You take all that they gave you and you go to the shop.
Get a tenner for the leccy and some booze flavoured pop.
Usually white cider 'cos it's cool to drink that.
But you top it up with Cava 'cos it tastes like crap.
Every generation brings something new, to save some time we've combined a few.
Little bit of this, little bit of that. Combine it all together makes one big...

Spent your gap year down in Asia and you really like to skank.
Budda-bA, Budda-bE, Budda-bI, Budda-bO, Budda-bU.
Budda-bA, Budda-bE, Budda-bI, Budda-bO These are the motherf**king vowels that I know.
I see these walking contradictions as I push on through, they want to get to the top just to enjoy the view.
Espousing all the lifestyles they used to despise, nobody wants to suffer so it's no surprise.
They trade the Corsa for a splitter, get a man to tune their guitar(sic). Another books the shows and on it goes and on it goes.

You learnt all of your politics from B**** ******* *****
I wrote this song about something that happened, it's nothing to do with me.
Still I toured it round the affected towns as it helps to sell my new CD.
I'm not trying to change the world, because I live in middle England.
And everything is fine, thanks.
I'm sick and tired of hearing bladdy all the same things from the rhetoric spewers on the anti-scene scene.
I came here for the music, not the business nor the industry.
I'd gladly take their money, but not if they want to change me.
I've never been that comfortable living a lie, just want to leave a little mark of who I was before I die.
I've never been that happy with what's put on my plate, I'm not an empty vessel, malleable clone or blank slate.
Every generation brings something new, to save some time we've combined a few.
Little bit of this, little bit of that. Combine it all together makes a steaming pile of piss.

When you're done with all our music can we please have it back, thank you.
With range, character and depth to his vocals and a passionate and varied playing style, Tim tackles an array of genres and
influences in his music, while his lyrics take on a wide selection of topics from the personal to the political, always conveyed with a hint of irony and a heavy dose of cynicism....more
