Lyrics

Moving towns
11 years old at another new school now

Oh no well I wasn’t aware I’d be staring down the barrel of the proverbial gun
I’m eating school dinners when Matthew informs me we’re fighting as soon as I’m done

I’m using lies to try and disguise that I’m far less worldly-wise
And Aaron’s been pushing me round since I skilled him up bad at 11-a-side

Oh no Freddie laid the smack down
Oh no on the new kid in the new town
Oh no you can take your shots at me but you’ll never take a piece of my soul

On shaky ground
There’s nothing left to do but learn to dust yourself down

In lessons Miss Beehag asks questions I’m sure to be smiling and raising my hand
I’m pleased to be getting my A’s but Jordan’s rubbing my face in the sand

If I wasn’t so shy I might notice that some of the girls in my class think i’m cute
But it’s tricky while chatting to Vicky and the boys are trying to stick in the boot

Oh no Freddie laid the smack down
Oh no on the new kid in the new town
Oh no you can take your shots at me but you’ll never take a piece of my soul

Earn my scars, heal my bones
Grown my legs grow some stones, move on elsewhere
You took your shots at me but you never took a piece of my

The school bell sounds
There’s nothing left to do but earn it on the playground

Oh no Freddie laid the smack down
Oh no I’m the new kid it’s a new town
Oh no well you can take your shots at me but you’ll never get a piece of my soul
