New Model Army - Adrenalin Lyrics
We were in the corner, the Clanduff by the doorOn opposite sides of the dance hall, staring across the floorThe lights go out, the fists fly in, it's the usual Friday sceneBecause adrenalin is the strongest drug that there has ever beenThere's this funny little bloke asking all these questions writing down what we saySo we wound him up like a clockwork dog and we watched him trotting awayTwo weeks later there's a feature in the paper called 'Britain's Urban Shame'It's got the teenage thugs of the new estates with our photographs and namesCh: So we cut our hair to prove itAnd we wore the clothes to prove itAnd we armed ourselves to prove itAnd we chose our place to prove itAnd we danced that way to prove itAnd we made ourselves believe itUntil all the world believed itUntil even you believed itAnd I was just a little part but I felt the wheels turningAnd these are all just little flames but the whole damn city's burningNow that we were famous they watched everything that we didWe were the villains of the neighbourhood, heroes to all the kidsAnd even when that old bloke died we pretended that nothing was changedWe just broke the silence with some stupid song and went on with the stupid gameCh: Yes, we cut our hair to prove it...
