On city streets you need to   Be careful who you speak to   Or look at or touch   As that?s enough to get you in too deep      Oh, what a laugh to hurt one   Humiliate and murk one   A country in need where bloods don?t bleed   What are you going to do?      Victorian, Georgian, Roman or Norman   Before the Gregorian, violence breeds   Don?t matter what era, there?s always a fear there   Hope?s to make beer, that?s all you need      It?s bait to be fateful but nasty and hateful   People aren?t grateful, they sow the seed   Into their offspring, most likely costing   Kids to be fostering idea?s that lead to      Fighting, biting, run for your lives   Shanking and spanking, run for your lives   Hitting and spitting, run for your lives      It?ll never change, it?ll never change   It?ll never change, it?ll never change   It?ll never change      Run for your lives   Run for your lives      Get your head down when hood's up   Don?t you look sharp or fix up   If weapons are words then don?t be heard   Silence equals peace      Victorian, Georgian, Roman or Norman   Before the Gregorian, violence breeds   Don?t matter what era, there?s always a fear there   Hope?s to make beer, that?s all you need      It?s bait to be fateful but nasty and hateful   People aren?t grateful, they sow the seed   Into their offspring, most likely costing   Kids to be fostering idea?s that lead to      Fighting, biting, run for your lives   Shanking and spanking, run for your lives   Hitting and spitting, run for your lives      It?ll never change, it?ll never change   We will never change, we will never change   It?ll never change      Run for your lives   Run for your lives   Run for your lives   Run for your lives
