Streets

Streets - Two Nations lyrics

Two nations divided

By a common language

And about two hundred years of new songs and dancing

But the difference is language

And just the bits you got wrong

'Cause we were the ones who invented the language

Sorry, oi, that's just my idea of a joke

But you guys are different to us across the pond folk

And I keep having to say that I'm only joking

In New York when I have to buy fags on the road, oi

Biggy man, god bless America and that

But you lot keep killing all your best talent

We build up our stars and then papers sweep on them

And you build on stars and maniacs shoot them

I don't know much about nines and Mac's

But we still got 22's we're inclined to pack

And I much prefer the profit margin nowadays

And crystal methods all the height with crack

It was no shock to me when we flew to the door

At the Nas gig where the mans were shooting in a war

Since it got reported in the latest news story

That London is now more dangerous than New York

Two nations divided

By a common language

And about two hundred years of new songs and dancing

But the difference is language

And just the bits you got wrong

'Cause we were the ones who invented the language, oi

Understated is how we prefer to be

That's why I've sold three millions and you've never heard of me

The paparazzi shoot me the the girls all loose on me

But don't shoot hiders, we fight football rivalry

The work wac means to cum back home

And I wrote the ten wac commandments on my own

I was in front of the bloke shooting at the Nas show

But they weren't shooting at him it was honor that night though

We don't shoot idols happily shoot instead

Up my road the police just thought are you dead

'Cause they guessed he might of been a bit of a terrorist

Does this bomb look big in this bag then but we love Biggy, Johnny Cash and Stevie Wonder

It's no Biggy we got no cash and its no wonder

'Cause I'm proud we gave you people like John Lennon

Even though you shot him as well

Two nations divided

By a common language

And about two hundred years of new songs and dancing

But the difference is language

And just the bits you got wrong

'Cause we were the ones who invented the language
