Lyrics
Two nations divided By a common language And about two hundred years of new songs and dances But the difference is language And just the bits you got wrong 'Cause we were the ones who invented the language
Sorry, oi, that's just my idea of a joke But you guys are different to us across the pond folk And I keep having to say that I'm only joking In new york when I have to buy fags on the road, oi Biggy man, god bless america and that But you lot keep killing all your best talent We build up our stars and then papers swoop on them And you build on stars and maniacs shoot them I don't know much about nines and macks But we still got two two's we're inclined to pack And I much prefer the profit margin nowadays And crystal meth all the hype with crack It was no shock to me when we flew to the door At the nars gig where the mans were shooting in a war Since it got reported in the latest news story That london is now more dangerous than new york
Two nations divided By a common language And about two hundred years of new songs and dances But the difference is language And just the bits you got wrong 'Cause we were the ones who invented the language, oi
Understated is how we prefer to be That's why I've sold three million and you've never heard of me The paparazzi shoot me the the girls all loot on me But don't shoot idols, we fight football rivalries The work wac means to cum back home And I wrote the ten wac commandments on my own I was in front of the bloke shooting at the nars show They weren't shooting at me it was honor that night though We don't shoot idols happily shoot instead Up my road the police just shot a yout' dead 'Cause they guessed he might have been a bit of a terrorister Does my bomb look big in this bag then but we love biggy, johnny cash and stevie wonder It's no biggy we got no cash and its no wonder 'Cause I'm proud we gave you people like john lennon Even though you shot him as well
Two nations divided By a common language And about two hundred years of new songs and dances But the difference is language And just the bits you got wrong 'Cause we were the ones who invented the language
