I'm one of the old skool
I can't find my feet in life
I make up all the groundrules
And then I break 'em whenever I like
I asked my own mother
Won't you make a father of me?

I got my name in neon
I drive round in big fast cars
I date Jennifer Aniston
I keep pickles in a jar
I don't work for no-one
I can afford to sleep

Well, my name is costly
But it keeps me in my shoes
I wine and dine nicely
I can't buy a little car
Without buying two

I got my own game show
I have my way with the chambermaid
I got shares in velcro
I don't care what the fuck you say
Arrive late at premiers
I'm only there to be seen

Well, my home is stately
But it keeps me in my shoes
I don't like Rick Astley
I can't buy a little car
Without buying two

Well, my name is costly
But it keeps me in my shoes
I don't like Rick Astley
I can't buy a little car
I can't buy a little car
Without buying two

ABOUT THE SONG

This is my favourite song ever. And i mean ever, better than Andy Williams "Can't Take My Eyes Of You", better than the Manics "Motorcycle Emptiness" better than "Smells like fuckin' Teen Spirit". I have loved this song since the day i wrote it and i envy the day you first hear it, because it's such a fuckin' corker. It's essentailly a glam rock song with essence of indie thrown in for good measure. I love this song so much that i'd play it in two bands, because it's originally a Quigley song. But it deserves all the press it can get... And before you get confused, it's not about minis or beetles or whatever. It's about famous people. "It" people if you like. The kind of person who graces the pages of HEAT magazine for no good reason whatsoever. Plus it name checks Jennifer Aniston AND Rick Astley. How much better could this song get? Not much, i assure you. It's the best song in the world, the best song in the world. Look into my eyes and it's easy to see... and then we get... - Fil
