We Are Bis from Glasgow [DVD]

Not really sure what I am looking for
A destiny that leaves you wanting so much more
I need to stop putting it before me
I'm straying but I know I've not lost it
Transparent but I know what I am (so near)
So why don't I listen to what you're saying to me

Convenient but I have no function
It's just routine but there is no corruption
Nail me down, I know my head's not here
Bring it back, the end's starting today
Will you leave this party with me
We were not invited anyway
I have a path but I can't keep to it (no way)

I followed it and don't know where it took me (nowhere)
I don't talk back or even question
The odd one out but kept my involvement
Nail me down, I know my head's not here

Bring it back, the end's starting today
Will you leave this party with me
We were not invited anyway
(Nail me down)
(Nowhere)
(Nowhere)

Got no gaps in your teeth? You must be happy
Cola bottles, sugar coated
We've had sugar to eat, don't try and stop me
Flying saucers filled with sherbet

We want the right to eat sweets without yr frowning
Don't tell us what we can't do now
And we see the powers that be in sugar, drowning
Ten pee mixture for the way home

This is an advertisement
Hey, make way for the sweet shop avengerz
So make the sweet adjustment
A-okay, we're the sweet shop avengerz

Never too old to eat sweets, unless you feel it
Chocolate mice with strawberry center
Reclaim the rights to rot teeth, you know you need it
Candy shrimps, they're foamy inside

It's not a crime to be seen sucking a lolly
Vampire sweets that stick to your teeth
And it's hardly obscene to fill yr trolley
Ten pee mixture for the way home

This is an advertisement
Hey, make way for the sweet shop avengerz
So make the sweet adjustment
A-okay, we're the sweet shop avengerz

Kneejerk, it's a sugar fascination
Kneejerk, that infects the teen-see nation
Kneejerk, but we love the sweet sensation
Kneejerk, as it rots the population

Mummy was a model back in 1983
Before the skinny girls invaded the industry
She got a habit, got some plastic much too young
She wants Dustin Hoffman but she's not much on Mrs. Robinson

You're looking good for your age
Looks like you've stepped off the page
Thanks Ricki, thank you Jenny
You made me normal today

Daddy's such a scruff in his played out teenage gear
Hasn't cut his hair and the shampoo's never near
Now can you make him look like other's people dad
Will you please help me 'cause it makes my life oh so bad

I don't look the correct way
Please help make me normal today
I don't look the correct way
Please help make me normal today

Thank you Ricki, thank you Jenny

Yeah, we wanna star in an eighties movie
American brat pack members, truly
Yeah, we want big hair, permed and curly
So we can wear shades, looking mean and surly
Yeah we wanna car with a removable roof
So we can air our big hair, bypass the truth
That these things never happen in reality
But we'll be pretty in pink, just wait and see

I'll be the starbright boy
And yr the starbright girl
I'll be the starbright boy
And invade your world

Yeah, we wanna star in a skateboard movie
And be bad at the stunts like all amateurs should be
But we'd have so much fun playing lets pretend
That we'd get good at the stunts, showing off by the end
Yeah, we'll steal sport cars from our dads
And we'll fail our exams cuz it's cool to be sad
Yeah, everyday could be a holiday
No school, no rule, just me to say

I'll be the starbright boy
And yr the starbright girl
I'll be the starbright boy
And invade yr world

We'll be hanging around with Ferris Bueller
Meet Drew Barrymore cuz she's way cooler
Buy all our clothes on Rodeo drive
Never flatlining, we'll be alive
Upside down like we're the lost boys
Endorse the starbright fake plastic toys
Until the white flag must be unfurled
Just like Superman, we'll invade your world

When the routine bites hard
And ambitions are low
And the resentment rides high
But emotions won't grow
And we're changing our ways
Taking different roads
Then love, love will tear us apart again

Why is the bedroom so cold?
Turned away on your side
Is my timing that flawed?
Our respect run so dry

Wet, there's still this appeal
That we've kept through our lives
Love, love will tear us apart again

Do you cry out in your sleep?
All my failings exposed
Get a taste in my mouth
As desperation takes hold

Is it something so good
Just can't function no more?
When love, love will tear us apart again

Sci-fi Steven, a secret vampire by night.
Ears and eyes always on the lookout for conspiracies against the teen-c nation.
Lives by the ethic, 'keep yr friends close but yr enemies closer.'

Manda rin, seeker of the truth.
Hair clips and screams used as deadly weapons.
Childlike appearance used as decoy.
A warning to all saboteurs, 'be fooled and be dead'.

John disco, all hail the disco king.
Gaze in wonderment at his skanking ability, but don't stare too long.
His disco feet can hypnotize.
Hear him say, 'travolta ain't got nothin' on me'.

And now coming through the airwaves into yr home.
Introducing the new transistor heroes.

Tell it to the kids, tell it to the kids.

Hey you! fascist man, working on yr master plan.
We know what we saw, won't let you do more.
Hey you! homophobes, life without yr frontal lobe.
Yr prejudice lies while innocent die.

Hey you! it's the sound, in yr head goes round and round
You want it some more, yr life is a bore.
Hey you! don't be scared, bis are here and we don't care.
We'll expose the lies. it's the defense for the kids.

No use running now, we know what you did
We're gonna tell it to the kids, tell it to the kids
Gonna get you now, 'cause that's now it is
We're gonna tell it to the kids, tell it to the kids

Hey you! poison pen, no use trying to pretend.
You think yr the best, now here's the prole press.
Hey you! businessman, getting as much as you can
We wanted the truth, we still want our youth

Hey you! backstabber, we know who and where you are
You let down the kids, yes that's what you did
Hey you! listen out, teen-c nation gives the shout
Retain the youth. it's the defense for the kids!

No use running...

Oh, oh, oh, oh fighting for the nation's youth
So, so, so, so, we can find out all the truth
No, no, no, no, no use hiding what you did.
