Hit The Hi-Tech Groove

Pop Will Eat Itself

[Intro]
This is the sound of house music
(Stand and deliver)
(Stand and deliver)
(Stand and deliver)

[Verse 1]
We've shit for brains, got blinkered vision
We steal our lines from television
Steal some words, steal some tune
Don't be shy, hit the hi-tech groove
We're little boys who tell tall stories
Spice our gossip with jackanories
Tell no secrets, give no clues
It's all here for us to use

[Verse 2]
Take a beatbox and add a garage racket (Go!)
Box frenzy!
We got lines fly like an eagle
The rhythm it smokes more than a beagle
Floating butterflies, stinging bees
The beats is fresh, the rhymes is free

[Chorus]
You don't have to have integrity
I said, you don't have to have ability, yeah
So listen, kiddies, it's true what they say
You don't need respectability

[Verse 3]
Drop in the groove, circulate
Stake your claim, it's not too late
Sleep all day, fly by night
Lead the pack, take what you like
Go blam-blam, sing love songs
Making up the story as you go along
So let's p-p-party, let's b-b-ball
Argh! Fuck it all!

[Verse 4]
Take a shitload and ask for more
Roll around the carpet floor
We're no-good thieves, we're no buyers
It's the art of scrounging, base desire
The Brinks-Mat job was a second-rater
Poppie tricks are the number one capers
Jumping bail, skipping trial
We're ha-ha people with half-hour smiles

[Chorus]
You don't have to have integrity
I said, you don't have to have ability, yeah
So listen, kiddies, it's true what they say
You don't need respectability

[Verse 5]
We take, we beg, we steal, we borrow
Here today and gone tomorrow
Take the moment, grab those kicks
We're main pranksters, pardon our tricks
I don't study, don't need a degree
I got advanced criminology
Crime circles wave and ask us by
"Sorry, no speech, we really must fly!"

[Chorus]
You don't have to have integrity
I said, you don't have to have ability, yeah
So listen, kiddies, it's true what they say
You don't need respectability
You don't have to have integrity
I said, you don't have to have ability, yeah
So listen, kiddies, it's true what they say
You don't need respectability
You don't have to have integrity
I said, you don't have to have ability, yeah
So listen, kiddies, it's true what they say
You don't need respectability
You don't have to have integrity
I said, you don't have to have ability, yeah
So listen, kiddies, it's true what they say
You don't need respectability
You don't have to have integrity
I said, you don't have to have ability, yeah
So listen, kiddies, it's true what they say
You don't need respectability
You don't have to have integrity
I said, you don't have to have ability, yeah
So listen, kiddies, it's true what they say
You don't need respectability
