The Streets - Same Old Thing lyrics

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 replayed
In different ways (yeah)
Oi, tune's heavy
'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 replayed
In different ways (yeah)
Oi, oi, right there

Whose 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 midweek shit
And weekend is how loud I speak
And whether I try and pull a girlfriend
That's it who's got dough?
Ayy, 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
The remains of the day stoned
Pick a bottle off the table, peel the label
Tell a fable
Offer opinion for free on 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 girl's well fit
Definitely, 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 every day
(That's it, that's it, that's it)
Just gets played and replayed
In different ways (yeah)
Oi, oi, heavy, heavy
'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 replayed
In different ways (yeah)
Oi, oi

Can't lounge in the boozer all day
Got manoeuvres 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 one
They're getting relegated to
The third division
At street level, real people
Same repeated sequel
Rock and roll, four 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
(It's right there)
I just don't see it (Right there)
I just don't see it (Oi, oi)

'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 replayed
In different ways (yeah)
Oi, street level
'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 replayed
In different ways (yeah)
Oi, oi, heavy, heavy

Lock the door on your way out
