If you let me join your gang
I'll show you things you've never dreamed of
After school we'll steal a car
Drive until the feeling changes

All the people have to say "we're swinging"
"We don't like you, go away - we're swinging"
Feeling rotten to the core
And I don't need you anymore

Are you a hardcore hooligan?
Did you really burn the old school down?
If I set fire to you now
Will you even make a sound?

All the people have to say "we're swinging"
"We don't like you, go away - we're swinging"
Feeling rotten to the core
And I don't need you anymore

It's the end of the affair
Bet you never thought you'd even get this far
And I dare you to look down
See how brave you really are

Monmouth, Cardiff to the South Downs - "we're swinging"
From the coast to the cathedral towns - "we're swinging"
Feeling rotten to the core
And I don't need you anymore
And I don't need you anymore
