1. WE'RE THE LEAGUE

Another boring night and I'm feeling pissed,
My heads fucked up and I'm in a mess
Too many drugs have made me high
I want to cause havoc, I want to die.
We are the League, with the extra man
We are the League, we are the anti band
So don't you say you're feeling bored
The League are here and we have scored
We are the League
We are the League
We are the League
The Anti Nowhere League
You criticise us, you say were shit,
But were up here and were doing it
So don't you criticise the things we do
No fucker pays to go and see you.
We are the League and we are mad
We are the League and our musics bad
Well fuck noise like youve never known
And make you wished you'd stayed at home
We are the League
We are the League
We are the League
The Anti Nowhere League
We hate the dogs, we hate the man,
We hate the things we don't understand
No time for love, cos that aint class
If you don't fucking like it, stuff it up your arse.
We are the League and we are mean
We are the League and were obscene
We don't give a toss for what you think
Cos all your views, they fucking stink
We are the League
We are the League
We are the League . so don't fuck with the League!


2. ANIMAL

Hello Mrs Shaw
Could I borrow your lawnmower?

Up your body!
Why? Why me?
Why am I so lonely?

I'm an animal
I'm a sexual pervert, an animal
A living abortion
I'm an animal, nobody's hero
An animal, I'm your next door neighbour

Everybody hates me
Why am I so ugly?

I'm an animal
I'm a sexual pervert, an animal
I'm a living abortion
I'm an animal, I'm nobody's hero
I'm an animal, I'm your next door neighbour

Everybody scorns me
My wife - she doesn't know me

I'm an animal
I'm an animal
I'm an animal
I'm an animal, I'm your next door neighbour

Everybody shuns me
Why am I so dirty?

I dream of naked ladies leaping over me
I like peeping through holes in public lavatories
Domineering women in thigh-high boots
Tying me up, whipping me!

Somebody help me!
I've lost my sanity

I'm an animal
I'm a sexual pervert, an animal
I'm a living abortion
I'm an animal, I'm nobody's hero
I'm an animal, I'm your next door neighbour

No sex for me!
You, you made me
You scorned my body
You degraded me
You twisted my mind
You made me unkind
You fed on my cravings
You persecuted me
You don't understand
You!


3. WOMAN

Woman
I'm in love in you
My love is deep
My love is true
To you, woman, I'm in love

Your hair's so soft
Your eyes are blue
Your skin is warm
And I'll be true to you
Woman, I'm in love with you

You came to me in a dream, I'm sure
You gave your love, you gave much more to me
Woman
Will you marry me?

Do you take this woman
To be your lawful wedded wife
To love and to cherish
And in sickness and in health
Till death do you part?
I do.

Till death us do part

What's that you just said to me
You didn't love me like this yesterday
Woman
I don't understand

And what's that you did say to me
I guess this love is just more to me
Woman
You're annoying me

Yeah, you're sitting on your arse in your dirty clothes
You're looking a mess, you're picking your nose
Woman
You're a fucking mess

Your tits are big but your brains are small
Sometimes I wonder you got any brains at all
Woman
Ah stuff yourself

Well fuck you, fuck you
Don't you tell me what to do
Woman
Ah fuck off

I've got my deed, I've married you
What did I do to deserve you?
Woman
Why me?

Woman
Woman
Woman
Woman
Woman
I hate you


4. CAN'T STAND ROCK 'N' ROLL

Well I can't stand Rock'n'Roll
I can't stand Rock'n'Roll
I can't stand Rock'n'Roll
Well up your arse oh Rock'n'Roll

The man who made it was big and fat
Oh my God what d'you think of that?
I loved it too when they died in a plane
Oh my God we should do it again

Well I can't stand Rock'n'Roll
I can't stand Rock'n'Roll
I can't stand Rock'n'Roll
Well up your arse oh Rock'n'Roll

Think of the shit from foreign lands
Money in mouth and shit in hands
Eyes and minds, ruin us all
Fuck that Rock'n'Roll

I can't stand Rock'n'Roll
I can't stand Rock'n'Roll
Well up your arse oh Rock'n'Roll

Well I can't stand Rock'n'Roll
I can't stand Rock'n'Roll
I can't stand Rock'n'Roll
Well up your arse oh Rock'n'Roll

Born and bred on the fucking shit
With the boring cunts that didn't spit
It's time now for a different noise
You are the dead, and we are the boys

I can't stand Rock'n'Roll
I can't stand Rock'n'Roll
I can't stand Rock'n'Roll
Well stuff it up your arse oh Rock'n'Roll


5. (WE WILL NOT) REMEMBER YOU

And he's a fucked-up man with a fucked up life
Two dirty kids and an ugly wife
Standard clothes and standard car
Except of all that's what you are
The only time he's having fun
Is when he's up his neighbour's bum
Kids himself that he's a man
Never happy with a plan
The roads are full, he's got no class
But when's his head's right up his arse
But we don't like the things you do
And we will not remember you

Remember you

He tells his kids not to be bad
To grow up like their normal dad
Stinks it down the barber's shop
To buy his books and rubber cock
Hide behind the master grins
Covers all his fucking sins
But we don't like the things you do
And we will not remember you

Remember you

You're praying to your god of love
To replay all your fucking loves
But you're the meanest cunt in town
The road near you is fucking down
So don't expect respect from us
You fucked your life up, can't you sus?
And we don't like the things you do
And we will not remember you

Remember you

And we don't like the things you do
And we will not remember you


6. SNOWMAN

Got no fuckin' birds
Ain't got no fuckin' money
The dog don't fuckin' recognise me
Get chucked outta my fuckin' house next week

Well I take myself from my dirty bed
Can't find my clothes, can't find my head
And the DT's all over me
My eyes are bloodshot, I can't see
Well who's gonna make me happy
Feeling so down again
Who's gonna make me happy
Feeling down again

So I run through the streets
I gotta find my man
I make my cash the best I can
I'm going half-way up
And I'm half-way down
My head is spinning round and round

Well the Snowman'll make me happy
The Snowman is here, again
He's gonna fuck you, fuck you, fuck you one and all
He's gonna fuck you, fuck you, fuck you one and all

And there'll be times when you can't glow
You feel your life is being choked
Till you never know just who you are
Your mind has gone, your soul

Well who's gonna make you happy
Feeling so down again
Who's gonna make you happy
Feeling down again
So you try to lie just one more time
You try to lie that you feel fine
Till there's nothing left inside your head
There's no escape until you're dead

The Snowman'll make you happy
Feeling so down again
Snowman'll make you happy
Snowman is here, again

He's gonna fuck you, fuck you, fuck you one and all
He's gonna fuck you, fuck you, fuck you one and all - he did me
He's gonna fuck you, fuck you, fuck you one and all - he fucked me
He's gonna fuck you, fuck you, fuck you one and all
He's gonna fuck you


7. STREETS OF LONDON

Well did you see the old man
Outside the seamen's mission
Never is a fading with the medals that he wears
And did you see the old man
Outside the seamen's mission
He's just another hero from a land that doesn't care

So how can you tell me you're lonely
And don't you say to me your sun don't shine

And have you seen the old girl
Who walks the Streets Of London
She ain't got no money and she's all dressed in rags
And have you seen the old girl
Who walks the Streets of London
She carries her old knickers in two polythene bags

So how can you tell me you're lonely
And don't you say to me your sun don't shine

Well let me take you by the hand
And lead you through your Streets of London
I'll show you something you'll never understand
Well let me take you by the hand
And drag you through your Streets of London
I'll show you sonething that'll make you really sick

Well let me take you by the hand
And lead you through your Streets of London
I'll show you something we'll never understand
Well let me take you by the hand
And drag you through your Streets of London
I'll show you something that'll make you really sick


8. I HATE... PEOPLE

God I wish that I could hide away
And find a wall to bang my brains
I'm living in a fantasy, a nightmare dream... reality
People ride about all day
In metal boxes made away
I wish that they would drop the bomb
And kill these cunts that don't belong

I hate people
I hate the human race
I hate people
I hate your ugly face
I hate people
I hate your fucking mess
I hate people
They hate me

My mother thinks that I am a jerk
Because I hate my bleeding work
Be like your daddy he's sincere
But don't be true... or you'll be queer
I'm working at my 9 to 5
With boring cunts that give me jibe
Their talking of the love they give
They never give... they never give

I hate people
I hate the human race
I hate people
I hate your ugly face
I hate people
I hate your fucking mess
I hate people
They hate me


9. 'RECK-A-NOWHERE

I want some girl to reck it for me
A strong girl to reck it for me
And if she's ugly I don't mind
She has a pom and I want to grind,
I want to grind
I want to grind
And let her reck it for me

My dick is in a terrible state
Six inches long, I can't relate
The longer my dick the longer we grind
I have a dick let me push it your way
Push it your way and let it stay
Let her reck it for me

Don't want to lie and wank in bed
I give my body I give her my head
Reckings good but I've have much to see
I have a penis so let me be,
Let me be, let me be
And let her reck it for me

Recking pom poms is so very nice
Recking pom poms is so my advice
We reck it by night we reck it by day
We reck it too much, were gonna wear it away
Wear it away, wear it away
So let her reck it for me

I want some girl to reck it for me
A strong girl to reck it for me
And if she's ugly I don't mind
She has a pom and I want to grind
I want to grind
I want to grind
Come let her reck it for me
Come let her reck it for me
Come let her reck it for me
I wish she'd reck it for me


10. WORLD WAR III

Well we heard these stories yesterday
And now we want to never play
All the things looked better then
Well that's what meant for me

Your history means nothing now
It never meant much anyhow
All your crying is in pain
You're gonna die in screaming pain
Pain
Pain
Pain

Well let's roll on World War III
We'll burn in the rubbish of society
Roll on World War III
You're gonna burn with me

The stories heard when you were small
Words will mean this most of all
All you do is criticise
About your feather in your eyes

Well don't you know that your kids
Your kids grow up and never be
All your crying is in pain
You're gonna die in screaming pain
Pain
Pain
Pain

Well let's roll on World War III
We'll burn in the rubbish of society
Roll on World War III
You're gonna burn with me

So we told these stories yesterday
And now we want to never play
All the things were better then
Well that's all right ? ?

Well don't you know that your kids
Your kids grow up and never be
All you ? ? time will tell
I'll see you bastards all in hell

Well let's roll on World War III
We'll burn the scum of society
Roll on World War III
You're gonna burn with me
Burn
Rubbish
Burn
Rubbish
Burn
Burn
Burn
Burn


11. NOWHERE MAN

Nowhere Man, Nowhere Man
You laugh at the things you don't understand
Nowhere Man, Nowhere Man
Wash my blood from your feeble hands
And even though you're trying hard
To make a better life
All you do is turn away
Shove it up your arse

Nowhere Man, Nowhere Man
You're happy as a fading ?
Nowhere Man, Nowhere Man
You got yourself from the fat of the land
Climbing up your ladder high
What's that
Treading on your fellow man
You're no friend of mine

Nowhere Man, Nowhere Man
Bowing down and you'll make a stand
Nowhere Man, Nowhere Man
Beat the Joneses if you can

Nowhere Man, Nowhere Man
In your ugly clothes you look so grand
Nowhere Man, Nowhere Man
And day by day you're looking back
To see what you have got
A steady job at Tennessee
That ain't a lot

You laugh at the things you don't understand
Wash my blood from out of your hands
Nowhere Man, Nowhere Man
Nowhere, Nowhere, Nowhere Man
Nowhere Man, Nowhere Man
Nowhere, Nowhere, Nowhere Man


12. LET'S BREAK THE LAW

I'm going out on the streets and I'm feeling high
But you want to fight me and I don't know why
Yeah I wanna get dirty all covered in mud
But you turn on me, all I see is blood
Well let's break the law here tonight
Tonight, tonight
You wanna lock me up and throw away my key

I'm out with my lads and I'm feeling mean
Well we ain't that good, and we ain't that clean
We don't really care if you're black or white
We're doing now until it's light

Well let's break the law here tonight
Tonight, tonight
They wanna lock me up and throw away my key

Well let's break the law tonight
We'll give 'em one more tonight
We'll settle an old score tonight
And we'll break the law here tonight
Tonight, tonight
They wanna lock me up and throw away my key

I'm out on the streets and I'm feeling high
But you wanna fight me and I don't know why
Yeah I wanna get dirty all covered in mud
But you turn on me, all I see is blood

Well let's break the law here tonight
Tonight, tonight

They wanna lock me up and throw away my key
They wanna lock me up and throw away my key
They wanna lock me up and throw away my key
Tonight

17. ROCKER

The last minute I'm living, I'll tell you no lie
I'll be a rocker till the day I die
Whips

I got no money for food, but that ain't a drag
'Cause I get my kicks from plastic bag

Yeah the clothes that I wear and the colour of my hair
I'm a rocker
I don't need your style, I walk the Murder Mile 'cause
I'm a rocker

Don't care for me, I don't care for you
So let me live my life just like I want to do

Yeah the clothes that I wear and the colour of my hair

And I break the law just like you wanted to

I don't need your style, I walk the Murder Mile 'cause
I'm a rocker

I could've stayed at school, I could've got a degree
But there is no-one else that I'd rather be

Yeah the clothes that I wear and the colour of my hair
I'm a rocker
I don't need your style, I walk the Murder Mile 'cause
I'm a rocker

I want to live it fast, I don't want to slow down
There's no place for me in this crazy town

Yeah the clothes that I wear and the colour of my hair
I'm a rocker
I don't need your style, I walk the Murder Mile 'cause
I'm a rocker

Yeah I'm a rocker
Till the day I die

19. BALLAD OF J.J. DECAY

Well, gather around now, you boys and listen to the man
He says we've fought divided but united we will stand
We'll sacrifice the older ones, they're living in the past
We'll burn up their religions and we'll all be free at last

We'll put a hat upon his head and then we'll call him God
And then we'll share our health in him like peas do in a pod
This is the story of a man with a future in his head
But no one ever listens to him when he's dead

We're all getting older
The light is on and bolder
We're all getting older, decay

We'll follow him throughout the land obeying his command
We'll dance a sort of hatred that we think we understand
The children came a-running from their houses of decay
And laid the trust upon a fool who found a better way

He preach the words of wisdom with his hands and with his mouth
Then everyone believed him and then he believed himself
This is the story of a man with a future in his head
But no one ever listens to him when he's dead

We're all getting older
The light is on and bolder
We're all getting older, decay

This morning I had another talk
With the German chancellor, Herr Hitler
Here is the paper which bears
His name upon it as well as mine

We regard the agreement signed last night
As symbolic of the desire of our two peoples
Never to go to war with one another again

We're all getting older
The light is on and bolder
We're all getting older, decay

The year had come and gone and everyone began to see
Why did we follow such a fool in such a mindless way?
Let's turn our hatred to this man, we know he's just a fraud
We crucify him with the rest and find another God

How many times have you heard someone is coming here to say
That from your hell on earth that you will love until your grave
This is the story of a man with nothing in his head
And no one's gonna listen to you when you're dead

We're all getting older
The light is on and bolder
We're all getting older
We're all getting older

We're all getting older
We're all getting older
We're all getting older
We're all getting older
We're all getting older
