[Verse 1]
I was coming from the club, I was pretty full up
a man said what you doin lad, your eyes are all lit up
I said I took a pill to make me feel a little calmer
he said let s have a fight cus I m a real hard farmer
well he wrestled me to the ground and took my wallet
so I smashed him with a brick and made him drop it
oh the trouble that you have just getting home
it makes me feel like living on my own
[Chorus
Why does it have to be like this
every time I leave the club someone wants to have a go
I thought the stone age had gone ten thousand years ago
but Neanderthals still roam
[Verse 2]
One day I was walking down Union street with this girl
and someone said what s that on your head I said it s grease
have you never heard of Brylcream, man where have you been
he said you re not normal lad you don t look like all the rest
I said I m not a robot, I m a rockin roller from the fifties
he looked at me rather shifty
[Chorus
Why does it have to be like this
every time I leave the club someone wants to have a go
I thought the stone age had gone ten thousand years ago
but Neanderthals still roam
[Verse 3]
I went back to this girls house and her dad came down
in the middle of the night with his pyjama s on, he
he said what s the bloody noise, I said you must have left your tv on
he said get out of my house you little swine
the girl is never yours she s always mine
I said keep her man she s hardly worth the trouble
he marched me out the house at the double
[Chorus
Why does it have to be like this
every time I leave the club someone wants to have a go
I thought the stone age had gone ten thousand years ago
but Neanderthals still roam, Neanderthals still roam
