You Wanna be Oasis   by Preacher John 3/2/00

You wanna be oasis
stood there thinking you're so hard
but your daddy drove you here in his fat volvo car

You wanna be oasis
you hope your attitude will scare us
for fuck's sake spare us from all you second hand haircut wearers

Stolen riffs
and borrowed attitude
your designer labels mark you for a fool

Half-arsed bullshit
going through the motions
all your life praying for marketing and promotions

You make out you're a scally
an' talk up you're for real
but you don't create truth - you can only steal

All your fans are hooligans
ready for a riot
you'll never be original 'cos you're to scared to try it

You wanna be oasis
you're on an ego cruise
you wanna be oasis
with your TV for a muse
you wanna be oasis
we've got no use for you
you wanna be oasis
not here - not now - not you
