เนื้อเพลง The '90s - Robbie Williams

The 90s

Picking up the story
from where I left off
It's 1990 now
So school can fu.ck off
I got no GCSEs,
nothing higher than a 'D'
I couldn't tell me Mum
because she'd batter me

Me and Tate sat on the bowling green
Life was a sh.itter
We had five quid between us
And bought us six cans of bitter
I took me ten Benson home
And I smoked through the sorrow
If I could just avoid me Mum
Maybe I'd tell her tomorrow

I stumbled through the door
I said Mum it's like this
She said "That man's been on the phone
And you've made the list
You're in that boy band son
Come and giz' us a kiss"

Phoned up Martin and Rich
And carried on getting pissed
Boys I don't believe it
I'm gonna be famous
Pick you up in a Porsche
and buy you lots of trainers
I met the other guys
one seemed like a cock
I think it's going to be like New Kids On The Block

I can't be bothered 'cause I'm lazy
(I only wanted to get down)
I hate those that hate me
I can't forgive and it's crazy
Baby

Now I'm a video star
(I'm making trouble in this town)
Do you know who you are?
(For the five of us)
Baby

I adopted four brothers,
Some I liked more than others
One was like a brother from another mother
But the lead singer made it hard to like him
And I still loved him
despite him
The first three months
you know I nearly quit
I played snooker with my Dad
he said "Don't be a d*ck
Unload the bullets
you're mind is a gun
You're gonna shoot yourself when they're number one"

I can't be bothered 'cause I'm lazy
(I only wanted to get down)
I hate those that hate me
I can't forgive and it's crazy
Baby

Now I'm a video star
(I'm making trouble in this town)
Do you know who you are
(For the five of us)
Baby

Now it's dinner with Versace
And lunch with Princess Diana
And I'm gonna get belted if I go out of my manor
Cause as much as we were loved
We were also hated
The boys got jealous
Cause the girls got plated

And now we're famous and that
and we're dancing and that
And I'm thinking I can sing
why am I stood at the back
So fu.ck the band
give me Sambuka and gak

Now we're all a bag of nerves
Were not a band of brothers


I can't be bothered 'cause I'm lazy
(I only wanted to get down)
I hate those that hate me
I can't forgive and it's crazy
Baby

Now I'm a video star
(I'm making trouble in this town)
Do you know who you are?
(For the five of us)
Baby

And now it's breaking my heart
because the dream's turned to sh.it
It ain't broke but I'll break it in a little bit
And I'm always in trouble
but I've stopped saying sorry
Everybody's worried
What the fu.ck's wrong with Robbie
He's not answering his phone
He's not talking to me
I saw him on the telly at Glastonbury

And now I'm running away
from everything that I've been
And I'm pissed and I'm fu.cked
and I'm only nineteen
I can't conform no more
I can't perform no more


But the boys know I'm fu.cked
and so they show me the door
And if the truth be told
I wasn't fit enough to stay
So I put my head down
and walked away

That was the 90's
90 to 95

I can't be bothered 'cause I'm lazy
(I only wanted to get down)
I hate those that hate me
I can't forgive and it's crazy
Baby

Now I'm a video star
(I'm making trouble in this town)
Do you know who you are
(For the five of us)
Baby
