It's like it was yesterday but it's really long time ago
when the poison of this lifestyle was out to get me
waiting for the bus with your boots and your hair cropped short
Laurel Aitken on the walkman and the world
out there to be taken
Fighting at the weekends at the pre-match
when football wasn't a men's wear catalogue crap
getting in trouble and having lots of fun
when the poison is out to get you what else are you going to do
you gotta pay the price for the life you choose
FOOTBALL, SKINHEAD REGGAE;
ROCK AND ROLL, FROM THERE'S WHERE WE COME FROM
Now we are pretty much older but the energy still the same
in the way you learn a lot, that's the way it is
Been stabbed, been beaten down, music made me the man that I am
Conquered my fears and left my troubles behind
We listen to the boss-sounds at the weekenders
with those around that are still true to the game
take no sh** from no one, no way
if the poison is out to get you remember that you are not alone
We are the secret army and we are coming back for you!
FOOTBALL, SKINHEAD REGGAE;
ROCK AND ROLL, FROM THERE'S WHERE WE COME FROM
