I've No Alibi
Ive no alibi, Im so bad I cry
Ive no alibi, laugh until I cry
I talk ******te, ******te, ******te, and they buy, buy, buy, buy it
I talk ******te, ******te, ******te, and they buy, buy, buy, buy it
I wish I was cute and I looked the part
Gold chain round my neck and on each arm a tart
I wish I was cool with the hip crowd in
I could take all my lyrics and throw them in the bin
Id have a six pack stomach like your man Andre
Drive round in my Jeep and at night time Parte
Id write throwaway lyrics, with no meaning at all
And Id work on my appearance for the MTV ball
Care more about how I looked and how I came across
Than the drivel I was writing for words Im at a loss
I could put out what I liked just as long as it had a beat
And the masses would love it, they would mob me on the street
Pour some serious money into the video
Have some fly girls shaking their asses dont you know
I could dress up like a gangster rapper and pretend
Im from the street even if I was a rich white idiot
Everyone would love me, theyd have no ****** choice
Cause Id be pushed right down their throat
Not once, not twice but thrice
In the papers, up on billboards, in the news and on your screens
Id be haunting you, youd probably even see me
In your dreams and the media monster , Id be riding on its back
Id be hunting poor unfortunates, with my truncheon
Eardrums crack get an overall tan, sign my autograph for a quid
And Id put across a message that would say this to a kid
Im so trendy, Im so talented, Im so handsome. Im so cool
Buy my tape and praise me, Im a god you fool
Youre not trendy, youre not talented, youre not handsome
Youre not hip
Ill be all these things for you and my lyrics will equip
Equip you for eh? Eh? Mm?
Oh yeah, CDs, posters, T-******rts, all my ice cool merchandise
So go now, quickly as you can, to your nearest retail outlet
And dont be shy my friend, spend, spend, spend, spend, spend
Spend, spend, spend, spend, spend, and remember that
I love you
