Lyrics:

21st Century lived a life of luxury
A paradise parody, you can be anyone you want to be
But you can't be free
The kids don't play no more

I'm not a rude boy, bad lad, looking for a smash and grab
Lost soul on the dole, trying to switch a light bulb on
But the spark has gone.
The kids don't play no more

Crash, burn, live, learn, queue up wait your turn
Your time will come, sit back and chew your gum
Be the patient one
The kids don't play no more.

We were once believers
But the robots came and stole our dreams away
The grown ups, they have deceived us
Fucked our futures up we most obey
Kids don't play no more.

Panic, panic, take, take, smash, grab, hate, hate
Danger in the game, fight the flames
You won't find nothing here, nothing here
Cos the kids, no the kids don't play no more.

(c) M Henwood & S Jones

NYPD use bicycles, horses.They are rather good, train in the city parks c/ mountain bikes.They can go up & down the stairs to the tube on their bikes. AMOF-some lame on a bicycle planted a pipe bomb @ Times Square recruiting place.Never caught the guy- CC cameras are not worth the $ we spend on them.Notise in ur vid- a few bicycles chained to a light.Odd. Gr8 music. Really.

In the South Bronx- this was considered Saturday night normal. Bored kids, bicyc les, burning cars. In the projects kids would sort of have a taps & a reveille of AK-47's off the roofs. Occasionally a body or 2 would be tossed. No cells then, cam recorders were for rich folks. Question- the building? Accelerant?NM.Very good stuff. Thanks.
