    A raw sounding ska track. When writing this song I tried to make it as simple and trimmed down as I could. This song is the complete re-recorded version including all the vocals.
    CD: None   Label: None
    Credits: Written, performed and recorded by Tom Roberts, Backing Vocals by Tony Finch

    Story Behind the Song
    The song was written in one night shortly after the incident that inspired it. Tony and myself were attacked on the street by a gang of 'youths' and we just thought it deserved a song.

    Lyrics
    Times have changed
    We’ve gone back to the past
    With a new breed of hatred
    That’s here to last
    There’s no reason
    For what they do
    So watch your back on the street
    Cos their looking for you

    Pikeys, scalies, towny scum
    ‘n they don’t give a shit about anyone
    On the streets its Sunday night
    And the bastards have come out looking for a fight

    Coppers cant do shit
    They hate us too
    Think that we’re all troublemakers
    Me and you
    Twisted double standards
    That don’t make sense
    When we are just as bad
    If we fight back in (self) defense

    Look to the future
    Cos there’s no hope
    Violence, persecutions
    And muggings for dope
    A menace to society
    The Gummi brats
    But we’ve got our punk unity,
    Revenge with a baseball bat
