What you staring at?
Haven't you never seen a toff?
No, never
I'm sorry, I didn't...
That's all right

We were young we didn't know how quick that it would all go
'Cause we were dumb but we were free and as real as we would ever be
Yeah, we were young we didn't know how quick that it would all go
'Cause we were dumb but we were free and as real as we would ever be

Primary school wasn't cool I was on the ball
In the playground, playing 'til my mother called
With my best friend Shaun 'cause he liked the same shit
'Cept he like United. I even hated the kit (fucking Giggs)
We all loved the girls but didn't know why we'd always make 'em cry
Or they would lie like our father did at Christmas
Coming down the stairs, white beard merry pissmass
But lads will be lads,we were glad to be bad
Being agg 'cause we could, going bed made me sad
So we stayed up late and played dumb games, with made up names
Nuting seemed better than the six weeks of summer
Playing out every night, water fights bring your brother
Year six ends, secondary's coming
Mum said slow down, we kept running

We were young we didn't know how quick that it would all go
'Cause we were dumb but we were free and as real as we would ever be
Yeah, we were young we didn't know how quick that it would all go
'Cause we were dumb but we were free and as real as we would ever be

And when I went school I was the exception to the rule
All my books stayed in my locker 'cause I'd rather pack a tool
I was on it from a youngen never wrapped in cotton wool
I was the brightest in my year still I had to act a fool
I had to look cool never shoes always black kicks
Burned out workouts, Adidas Stan Smiths
Hustling, had my lunch money doing backflips
Madness, swap a man a zoobie for his sandwich
Genius with figures had a special way with words
Genius with knickers had a special way with birds
Teachers had to get me I was always on the run
Used to intercept the letters that they sent out to my drum
Shut my mouth you're not my mum none of you can tell me shit
Tell me why the fuck I need to call you sir you little prick
Didn't give a rass kicked out of every class
Thought I'd always found my feet until I fell onto my arse

We were young we didn't know how quick that it would all go
'Cause we were dumb but we were free and as real as we would ever be
Yeah, we were young we didn't know how quick that it would all go
'Cause we were dumb but we were free and as real as we would ever be

I went my college for the women and it turned into a rave
I was bunking lessons just to pick up high grade
But when I went to the lesson my mindset was never questioned
I could still hold my hand up if asked I explained
Had a firm of thirty men and we were deep in foreign ends
Most of them are still around each one is still my friend
The trouble that we had, I swear the trouble that we had
Coming home from college was a daily bloody scrap
Let's go a party of girl that we barely even know
Go and try start a fight and then pretend we ain't involved
Go and find someone old to buy Strongbows
Then go and get a whip and try and holla at some hoes
That's the motive, we didn't know it
That we'd be sitting there in ten years longing for it
Now we just get pissed every day stir porridge
And laugh about it all every time we bring up college you know

We were young we didn't know how quick that it would all go
'Cause we were dumb but we were free and as real as we would ever be
Yeah, we were young we didn't know how quick that it would all go
'Cause we were dumb but we were free and as real as we would ever be
We were young we didn't know how quick that it would all go
'Cause we were dumb but we were free and as real as we would ever be
Yeah, we were young we didn't know how quick that it would all go
'Cause we were dumb but we were free and as real as we would ever be
