lyrics

if you aint got a place to go and you aint got a job/you aint got many options, but you can choose to squat/it used to be a lifestyle for those with a 70s political bent/but now its been hijacked by those with brand new phones/cos mummy pays for living costs and daddy pays for shoes/but im a pretty cool guy I only spend it on drugs and booze/you can find me at a squat party smashed on MDMA/I think these girls are fucking sluts and they love that I live this way/but I just want to be a rebel like the clash/but I dont understand when the had money, they spent it on a flat/its all about the rebel image, oh mate we smashed it up/like a gypsy thief we sneak in and we'll make your house our home/aint got no real values, oh mate, I smashed her up/I got to squat parties and I collect video snuff/everyone tries to find a place to call their own/we hate the outside oh so much we reject it for inside/and I know I sound like a hypocrite cos I look like a dirty hippy/but you'll never find me on a street corner rapping to hip hop/twenty thousand pounds worth of damage is done/but they wont lay a finger on me/cos im reckless, im an egotist/I am a fucking liability/so where your political statement/cos you're living In empty buildings/one of these days a rain will come and wash you off the street/heres my open letter to you outlining my position/if you got the time to talk down to women/you've got the time to get a job and contribute/its all about the rebel image, oh mate we smashed it up/like a gypsy thief we sneak in and we'll make your house our home/ain't got no real values, oh mate, I smashed her up/I got to squat parties and I collect video snuff
