We came across the North Sea

With our carriers on our knees

Wound up in some holdin' camp

Somewhere outside Leeds Because we do not care to fight

My friends, we are the weeds

Because we got no homes, they call us

"Smelly refugees" Ah ah ah ah ah

Ah ah We are weeds, vegetation, dense undergrowth

Through cracks in the pavement

(Aaa)

There weeds will grow

The places you don't go This cut price dairy produce

That turns our bones to dust

You want some entertainment?

Go on, shove it up then, if you must Make believe you're so turned on

By planting trees and shrubs

But you come 'round to visit us

When you fancy booze an' drugs Ah ah ah ah ah

Ah ah We are weeds, vegetation, dense undergrowth

Through cracks in the pavement

(Aaa)

There weeds will grow

The places you don't go Go go, go, go

Go go, go, go If you think it's a crime

(We'd like to get you out of your mind)

It's just a matter of time, yeah

(We'd like to get you out of your mind)

Gonna cut you down in your prime, yeah

(We'd like to get you out of your mind)

For a little time

(For all time)

(Weed, weed, weed, weed)
