lyrics

This is not a novelty
It might be to you, but it ain’t to me
I’ll never accept what you’re trying to be
This is not a novelty

This one goes out to the middle class
Who think they come from the hood
With their CD collection of Bob Marley
Cos they think he’s really rather good
One day dem a wake up wi dem a dreadlock
An a talkin’ like a Rastamouse
But it’s all back to normal at the end of term
When it’s back to their parents’ house

This is not a novelty
It might be to you, but it ain’t to me
I’ll never accept what you’re trying to be
This is not a novelty

There’s something going wrong
When every other fucking song
Is like an anthem to the kids who smoke
But the people in the day
Had something that they had to say
And now you think it’s all a joke
You wanna be like a rudy
In your shanty town at uni
And you’re acting like you’re life is hard
But what nobody is saying
Is the Gibson that you’re playing
Was paid for on your daddy’s credit card

Now give it to me 1 time
Hit me 2 time
3 more time
Bring it back again

This is not a novelty
It might be to you, but it ain’t to me
I’ll never accept what you’re trying to be
This is not a novelty

Addictive pHilosopHy Derby, UK

We play a range of original music from mellow rocksteady to full throttle thrash, but mainly levelling out in the Ska/Punk area - think Rancid, Specials, Inner Terrestrials and Crass, but as far and wide as The Paragons to Discharge. Check our lyrics page out for what we're about - we say what we think and we're not shy about it!! ... more
