00:00It's a lovely area before you come here, love me!
00:13Free school dinners for the poor
00:28Pizza with a side of misery
00:30Teachers said when I leave
00:31No one here will miss me
00:33Didn't know I was a sinner
00:34But if they say so, well I must be
00:36Big lips, wide nose
00:38God knows no one will trust me
00:39Mum don't look like me
00:41But thank God she still loved me
00:43Neighbours called me nigger
00:44Told me go back to my own country
00:46Said since we arrived
00:47This place has got so ugly
00:49But this is my fucking country
00:50And it's never been fucking lovely
00:52We lived in a period of thin air
00:55We lived here
00:58We lived in a period of thin air
01:01We lived here
01:04Give it the big and round town
01:06Have a drink and puff your chest out
01:08Not a racist, you're just proud
01:09Why should you be left out?
01:11The fairies get a march
01:12And the nignogs get a month
01:14We've got the right to vote
01:15I mean what more could we want?
01:17Free to go where I like
01:19If I look like I belong
01:21If not, fuck off
01:22Go on boy, move along
01:24Remember Steven Lawrence
01:25He too was free to roam
01:27Eighteen years old at the bus stop
01:28Murdered on his way home
01:30We lived in a period of thin air
01:33We lived here
01:36We lived in a period of thin air
01:39We lived here
01:42The first time I was called nigger
01:44I was about seven or eight years old
01:46I was playing across the street
01:47And one of the older kids called me
01:49I went home for bath time a little later
01:51And asked my mum what it meant
01:53My white mum
01:54She told me it was a bad word
01:55We lived in a period of thin air
01:59We lived here
02:01We lived in a period of thin air mate
02:05We fucking live here
02:07You cunt
