Subcultures Lyrics

Subcultures by Dr Syntax

• I tried to act sociable with the guys down the local
• But soon realized I was bein' too hopeful
• I don't know cars, and I can't throw darts
• So I knew in my heart that I stood no chance
• I tagged along with a gang of vagabonds
• But my plans to bond went badly wrong
• I got nervous, tryin'a rob purses
• Long before the cops surfaced
• I thought 'it's not worth it'
• I spent the night with some hippie types
• Passing the biggest pipe that I've ever seen, in my life
• I thought crusties were all about love and peace
• But they got uppity when I finished off their fuckin' weed
• I tried to get friendly with some trendies
• They tried to tell me to get my hair bleached
• Know what I thought of their fashion tips?
• I said thanks but I'm happy with the natural look I've landed with
• I tried to chill with some garage ravers
• I can't believe what wankers they were
• You have a rude attitude, aren't you ever in a happy mood?
• I met some UK Hip hop heads on the internet
• Thinkin' "yes, I finally found some kids who share my interest"
• They spent the next 60 minutes on some winch and flex
• Bitchin' 'bout who they think is better, Chester P or Jehst
• I started chillin' with some indie kids
• Who dressed as if they didn't have a penny
• When they're clearly privileged
• Obnoxious Oxford posh kids in a mosh pit
• Watch me as if I was dog shit
• I thought "Fuck this."
• I went to a party full of arty farty wanna be dottys
• All dreamin' of the day they paint their masterpiece
• Charming freaks, dressed alarmingly
• So you can't perceive the possibility
• That artistry's not in their arteries
• I met some footy hooligans
• Moody cunts, who can't remember when they first threw a punch
• When I told them that I support no one
• They called me a homo and bust my nose open
• I met some lads who had recently outed
• Who moved like drag queens when they pouted
• I tried to think that it shouldn't be a problem
• But really we just didn't have a damn thing in common
• I met some nasty girls
• Who looked like Barbie dolls
• Dressed in Armani clothes
• I knew their hearts were cold
• They treated me like a thick inbred, with disrespect
• And I don't take shit from stick insects
• I met a couple into S&M
• She was a leggy wench
• He was among the most scary men I've ever met
• They wanted me to wear leather kecks
• Come and sit next to them and be their special friend
• At this point I thought I needed help
• None of these subcultures offered me
• A spot where I could be myself
• I told them all "Fine, do what you like to
• But don't let the limits of your pastime define you"
