mile  long queue in the chippy
 i wish i  was at my Gran's for tea
 these people call me  their friend, but they don't  think the same as  me
 now you fed up chasing  your  tail round this housing  scheme
 drinkin' your drink  now
 and staying up  to early in  the morning,  ohhh
wander  through the streets of dundee
 mum said  you shouldn't walk them alone
 a fight's a fight, and that's quite  alright
 ah but please  leave the tools at home
 now you fed up chasing  your tail  round this housing estate
 drinkin' your drink  now
 and staying up  to early in  the morning,  ohhh

 you lower standards  and expectations  of love
  you never aim  for people that you  say are levels above
  you're always chasing  the same  skirts round
 round your local pub
 where were you when i needed  you?
 up the posh end of town
 you're supposed to protect  and serve
 you're out for a perv  just driving around
 now you fed up chasing  your tail  round this housing scheme
 drinkin' your drink  now
 and staying up  to early in  the morning,
 staying up  to early in  the morning  ohhhhhhhhh
mile  long queue in the chippy
 i wish i  was at my Gran's for tea
 these people call me  their friend, but they don't  think the same as.. me
