lirik lagu louis dunford - when we were hooligans
[verse 1]
sometimes i sit and reminisce about the good old days i miss
about the days i spent with all my friends
in fact, i’ve come to realise those were the best days of our lives
oh, what i’d give to be fourteen once again
but still nostalgia makes me sick, i feel i’ve grown up far too quick
but i can’t help thinking ’bout back in the days
when we were the riff, we were the raff, my pals would wait outside my gaff
the door would open and you’d hear my old girl say
[verse 2]
“oh, no, he can’t come out to play tonight
he’s lucky he ain’t dead, the sh~te
he’s stole another tenner out of my purse
and so all you boys can p~ss off home
don’t bell him on his dog and bone
i swear to god you f~ckers make him worse”
but little did she know
that when she’s tucked up, oh, so tight
we’d roamed the streets ’til it was light
run from old bill all through the night
until the day
we were delinquent little sh~ts
we were the hood rats taking sips out of a bottle
while we sit on your estate
[chorus]
and life was so simple then
when we were hooligans
[verse 3]
so off we’d roam into the night, we ride our stolen pedal bikes
and who’s to say where we would go or who’d we see
but still a plan that never failed, get on the booze and off the rails
we’d buy a twenty bag of snout with a fake id
and all our clobber was on form, we we’d wear the swing made uniform
grey tracksuit bottoms, ralph lauren, we were looking suave
and all the birds are throwing up cheap chardonnay in plastic cups
dressed like it’s prom night but they’re p~ssing in a park
[verse 4]
and it’s only 8 o’clock
but who’s to romance is dead
she’s in the bushes off her head
with an older boy who stole her ped that she adores
but old prince charming’s just a drip
the smell of stella on his lips
her make up’s run, her tights are ripped
her knees are sore
[chorus]
and girls were so foolish then
when we were hooligans
[verse 5]
so as the night would carry on, the joints were rolled and the birds were gone
as all the boys sat on the benches getting stoned
and as we got high into the night, you’d hear the sirens, see the lights
so it’s the scum, here they come to take us home
so with a meaty on the way, we’d throw the booze and the green away
we’d jump the fence, lodge out the park onto the streets
oh, hurry up boys, f~cking h~ll, i can’t spend the night locked in cell
’cause my old man and my old girl think i’m asleep
but what a way to end the night, chased through the streets by flashing lights
if you can’t have it on your toes, you’re getting torn
and as the night came to an end, we lodged the old bill once again
before my mum was up, i’d slip through the front door
[verse 6]
oh my, how times have changed
so as i sit and reminisce
about those good old days i’d miss
so much has changed, sometimes i wish
i’d not grown old
they’d call us hood rats, call us scum
i’d call us kids just having fun
we were delinquents who would call these streets our home
[chorus]
and we believed things would be that way forever then
when we hooligans
when we hooligans
