Brit Pop

People,

The Brits have always come out with good music:

-The Beatles
-The Kooks
-Queen
-Simply Red
-Sex Pistols........
the list goes on.........

Now
, check out their latest import, Lily Allen. Her music is unlike anything i've heard....a bit hip hoppy..in a nice kind of way, a bit bluesy, a bit of pop........with bloody good lyrics(not to mention the brit accent as well). Totally recommend you check out two of her songs here:


'Alfie' by Lily Allen
[download it here]

Ooooo deary me,
My little brother's in his bedroom smoking weed,
I tell him he should get up cause it's nearly half past three.
He can't be bothered 'cause he's high on THC.
I ask him very nicely if he'd like a cup of tea,
I can't even see him cause his room is so smokey,
Don't understand how one can watch so much TV,
My baby brother Alfie how I wish that you could see.

Chorus
Oooooo I only say it 'cause I care,
So please can you stop pulling my hair.
Now, now there's no need to swear,
Please don't despair my dear Mon frere.

Ooooo Alfie get up it's a brand new day,
I just can't sit back and watch you waste your life away.
You need to get a job because the bills need to get paid.
Get off your lazy arse,
Alfie please use your brain.
Surely there's some walls out there that you can go and spray,
I'm feeling guilty (guiltier??) for leading you astray,
Now how the hell do you ever expect that you'll get laid,
When all you do is stay and play on your computer games?

Chorus

Oh little brother please refrain from doing that,
I'm trying to help you out so can you stop being a twat.
It's time that you and I sat down and had a little chat,
And look me in the eyes take off that stupid fitted cap.

Chorus

Please don't despair
Please don't despair
No more fair (??)




'Friday Nights' by Lily Allen
[download it here]

Ooooooooooo
Ooooooooooo

Friday night last orders at the pub,
Get in the car and drive to the club,
There's a massive crowd outside so we get in to the queue
It's quarter past 11 now we won't get in till quarter to.

It's quarter to and we get to the front,
Girl on a guest list dressed like a c***
She asked security to check in my shoes,
You can play this game with me but you know you're gonna lose.

Hook
Looked me up and down,
I don't make a sound,
There's a lesson that I want you to learn,
If you're gonna play with fire then you're gonna get burned,

Chorus
Don't try and test me cos you'll get reaction,
Another drink and I'm ready for action,
I don't know who you think you are,
But making people scared wont get you very far.

Ooooooooooooo
Ooooooooooooo

In the club make our way to the bar,
Good dancing love but you should of worn a bra.
Guy on the mike and he's making too much noise,
There's these girls in the corner wanting attention from the boys.

I see these girls and they're shouting through the crowd,
Don't understand why they're being really loud.
They make their way over to me,
They try to push me out the way,
I'll push her back, she looks at me and says,
What you tryna say?

Hook
Chorus x2

Oooooooooooooo


Cheers Mates!
