This is Not a Crass Song - Anti-Flag

You're walking down the street in the middle of the day (day!)
The sun is shinning brightly everything is quite ok (Ok!)
But then you hear this song, it makes you stop and yell out, "Hey!"
You might think that it is... but this is not a crass song.

You might think that it is but I'm telling you it ain't!
Although I will admit, it sounds like something they might write
It's a happy little ditty makes you stop and move you're feet
You might think that this is... but this is not a crass song!

Masterpieces don't usually get written in a minute,
But this one took just seconds or even less time to pen it
But don't be too amazed, 'cause it's just got one verse and chantin'
You might think that this is... [British accent] ahh...right...it's not a crass song is it?

The guitar riff is real savage and it ain't on all that on time
The vocals are so cockney that they may just blow your mind
And it's got made up words like "icklee", "zicklee", "vin", and "plime"
you might think that this is... no! no! this is not a crass song!

We like to play it in the morning like to play it in the night
do yourself a favor matey, sing it instead of starting fights
After only just one verse i'm telling you you'll feel all right
you might think that this is... but this is not a crass song!

Play it when you're walking, walking down the street
play it when you're riding on your bike or on your feet
doesn't really matter 'cause it's really really neat
you might think that this is... ahhh...
sing it to your mommy, sing it to your dad
sing it to your new girlfriend or the one you just had...

[British accent] Hello? Right, uh, well so right, uh..
Hello I'm from England right? Uh, I love the telly tubbies!.
Uh, Telly tubby's my favorite show! Hello? anybody there? right
