Something Inside Beck's Thong
(Original song: Something Inside So Strong by Labbi Siffre)

The higher you build his ego up
The richer he becomes
They’re selling his image rights away
Of Manchester’s favourite son
There’s lots of money, you can’t deny
To sign your face away
Remember when you

Went about in a thong
You thought you could be so hip
But you were so wrong, so wrong
Remember that damn sarong (oh yes)
Your fashion sense all went wrong
Oh oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, your fashion sense all went wrong

Your face is on every kind of thing (ooh-weh ooh-weh ooh-weh ooh-weh)
We can’t avoid the hype
It should be put on toilet roll (ooh-weh ooh-weh ooh-weh ooh-weh)
So we’d give your face a wipe
So many crap haircuts, you look just like a putz
Like clothes you wear, did you wear them for a dare
When you

Went about in a thong
You thought you could be so hip
But you were so wrong, so wrong
Remember that damn sarong (oh yes)
Your fashion sense all went wrong
Oh oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, your fashion sense all went wrong

Brothers and sisters, when you go off to buy Beckham merchandise
What could be better, than grabbing his golden balls
And twisting them the other way
For the price we have to pay
To Beckham Inc. every day
This is what we have to say

You went about in a thong
You thought you could be so hip
But you were so wrong, so wrong
Remember that damn sarong (oh yes)
Your fashion sense all went wrong
Oh oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, your fashion sense all went wrong
