Lookin' out a dirty old window, down below the cars in the city
go rushing by
We sit here with no dosh and wonder why?

Should we catch the bus to Newcastle, we can't be bothered with
the hassle
going down, to search for some bread in this dirty town.


DOWN DOWN IT REALLY IS NO JOKE, DOWN TOWN EVERYBODY IS
BROKE...


[Chorus:]
WE'RE THE KIDS IN TYNE & WEAR WOOO

WE'RE THE KIDS IN TYNE & WEAR WOOO
EVERYBODY LIVES IN THE HOPE O' SOME CASH!


Bright light & music gets faster, in the disco we can't afford
to have a dance
We could never pay two quid, not a chance

Pig sick, down the Job Center, much later we will be thinking
never mind
you know life is cruel, life is never kind.


FIND TIME TO EARN AN EXTRA BOB, FIND TIME TO DO A FIDDLE JOB.


[Chorus]... NA NA NA....

Looking round the Metro Centre, gotta get a brand new experience

feeling rich
We can't stop, we're skint and we've got the itch.
Sunderland South Shields & Gateshead, not a bleedin' chance to

make bread
anywhere, We don't want to go baby.


WHITLEY BAY ACROSS TO!#%#BRIA, YOU'LL BE BROKE IF YOU COME 'ER
