Live east die young

The skints
Jade is 15 she lives in a little flat in ilford with her mum and two younger brothers, no job, but her mum's in primark. She's the prettiest girl in her class by far, but she's not on that school ting nah, she's got her head in the clouds, at least, out of the window. so when the weekend comes, there's a party down at her girl friend's drum where they play that sound "bede-bam-bam-bam, bede-bam-bam-bam" and in walks justin from manor park and he's got money, he's got a car, he promises the world, and know he's 10 years older...

She was just a young girl, who had too much to drink with a scumbag who wanted to take advantage. Now another little yout, with her own little kid, she cries "it was supposed to be like this!"

Well I'm telling ya that this is not a state of address, trust, it's merely what I've seen growing up out in the bits, and I count my self a lucky one, so count yourself a lucky one in this babylon system.

(Chorus) you only get one life, and then you die. Someone tell me why, it's the same story each time.

Danny is 19, stays at his brother's place in leyton, his parents have kicked him out because he wouldn't get a job, he tells them that "when I was at school, they treated me like I was a fool" but his daddy swears blind his youngest son is just a slob.

And one day, one of danny's brother's mates, is at danny's brother's place, and asks danny boy if he wants some road man pay, and danny boy is as broke as a fucking joke, what can he say. And he wants to look the don in front of the crew so that they rate him. all he's got to do is take a package to a rave in gants hill and that's little more than 5 miles out from leyton but little does he know, how things are about to go, the police authority have clocked his whole damn operation...

He was just a young boy who made a big mistake, now it's seven years inside for pedalling cocaine. And he cries himself to sleep, and his mates say "it's a shame", he goes "it wasn't supposed to be this way"

Well I'm telling ya that this is not a state of address, trust, it's merely what I've seen growing up out in the bits, and I count my self a lucky one, so count yourself a lucky one in this babylon system.

Chorus

I count myself a lucky one, so count yourself a lucky one in this babylon system.
