The Streets lyrics - Same Old Thing

album: Original Pirate Material (2002)
genre:

Yeah, street level 
Oi oi yeah, that's it.. 
Right there 
Round here nothing seems to change 
At street level 
Same old thing every day 
That's it that's it that's it 
Just gets played and re-played in different ways 
Yeah oi tunes heavy 
At street level 
That's it that's it that's it yeah.. oi oi right there 

Who's round is it? 
Down that beer quick smash my glass back down fall over the table 
All rowdy and pissed 
Seems the only difference between mid week shit and weekend is how loud I speak 
And whether I try to pull a girlfriend 
That's it who's got dough? 
Hey, you know I'd pay but I'm broke, only got coinage to show 
Putting off walking home on my own to my throne
Two empty takeaways ashtrays and remains of the day stoned 
Pick a bottle off the table, peel the label tell a fable 
Offer opinion for free and a solution to the latest big news story 
Football and smut daily as I ponder winning the lottery 
Buy a drink, chat to a lady, the girls well fit definitley, not maybe, 
She's rude I'd shag her and make tea right there 

Round here nothing seems to change
At street level
Same old thing everyday
That's it that's it that's it
Just gets played and re-played in different ways
Yeah oi oi heavy, heavy
Round here nothing seems to change
At street level
Same old thing everyday
That's it that's it that's it
Just gets played and re-played in different ways
Yeah.. oi oi

Can't lounge in the boozer all day, got manouvres to make 
Gotta see a man about a dog, can't be late, I'm always late 
Raining cats and fog but nice and dry in the black dog 
Down it in one my son, can't sit here, gotta run.. things need done 
If they don't win this and the next run they getting relegated to the third division 
At street level, real people saying repeated sequel 
Rock and roll fall to the floor like last night, yesterday morning 
And the night before and the night before 

Apparently there's a whole world out there somewhere 
I just don't see it (It's right there)
I just don't see it (right there) oi oi 

Round here nothing seems to change 
At street level 
Same old thing everyday 
That's it that's it that's it 
Just gets played and re-played in different ways 
Yeah, oi street level 

Round here nothing seems to change 
At street level 
Same old thing everyday 
That's it that's it that's it 
Just gets played and re-played in different ways 
Yeah oi oi heavy.. heavy 
Lock the door on your way out
