Lyrics Hoxton Heroes - Girls Aloud

Hoxton Heroes

You took some acid back in '99
You said it blew your mind
And it helped you write rhymes
So you bought a trilby and a cheap guitar
You thought you’d be a star
It didn’t get you that far
I don’t know your name
You’re just another band with a different game
And you’re all the same
You said you played at Reading
Then you chart at fifty-seven
You’re off your face like you’re number one
How many tracks have you sold?
Mmmmm, none
Walk 'round the place like you’re number one
So why don’t you write a tune
That we can hum?
Just 'cos your dad knew the Rolling Stones
You’ve got the Primrose set in your cell phone
Don’t kid yourself, you’re an indie clone
We’ve seen it before, get a sound of your own
You only follow Sinatra
'Cos you, you couldn’t get into Rada
So let’s try a little bit harder
'Cos you need more than jeans and a parka yeah yeah
Just 'cos your dad knew the Rolling Stones
You’ve got the Primrose set in your cell phone
Don’t kid yourself, you’re an indie clone
We’ve seen it before, get a sound of your own
You can make history
If you just stayed off the whiskey
And yeah you might just look like a rock star
But how much soul did it cost ya, cost ya?
