i used to live in england
i used to shop at tesco’s and buy meal deals
and i used to say “go tesco’s” instead of “go to tesco’s”
i used to spend late nights at spoons
only the good ones
i used to live in england
i used to go to the jacaranda and
watch shitty bands that wanted to be
oasis
and i used to wish i had a bunch of rings like them
so then i bought a bunch of rings and i felt like a poser
in an urban outfitters hoodie
i used to live in england
and for one summer i got super into garage music
so now i can be the guy in la that says “garage” instead of “garage”
even though i still have tеrrible taste in garage
causе it was just one summer
i used to live in england
and i was signed to the same label that put out skepta
except when i first signed i didn’t know who that was
and i just pretended
everyone around me told me it was cool so i was like “oh it must be
cool”
and i guess it was
i used to live in england
i used to say “cheers” whenever i went anywhere
but now when i hear an american say “cheers” i think that’s f+cking
weird
the worst is when they say “mate”
i never did that
not once
i used to live in england
and everyone would always ask me
“how’s london?”
even though i didn’t live in london
i never understood that
geography’s not that hard
just look at a map
sometimes americans are dumb
bells
i used to live in england
no really
i used to live there
i used to take the train from liverpool to london
for like 65 pounds
it was great
i used to live in england
and apparently ross from the 1975 liked my band
but i don’t know if that’s true
i never met him
maybe it was
who knows
let’s go with it
i used to live in england
and ross from the 1975 said my band was the best band he’d ever
heard in his entire life
and i was like
ross man
your band is pretty good too
i like that one song
i used to live in england
i used to live in england
then i moved to los angeles
i was doing like a opposites thing
i don’t know
dance

Unusual enough to be interesting but not something I'd want to hear more than every few years
I think this is pretty cool. Makes me smile.
"...watch shitty bands that wanted to be oasis..."
...immediately following Champagne Supernova.

and now to something completely different
Excellent! I live in London (moved there from the US in 1979), and this gave me a huge smile. You go, supermodel*! pxd
”Geography’s not that hard”. What you said, supermodel*.
Sometimes a piece of music surprises and stops me.
This one surely did.

This is hilarious! (I live in Wales UK)
Just got off shift and am driving around listening to RP to decompress before I get home. This silly song makes me smile and it's a great reboot song!
I like that one song from 1975 too.
Don’t be such a fookin’ wanker mate
As he said: "The best band I've heard in my entire life.."
Good fun, doesn't it take itself too seriously, and you can dance to it.

Can't seem to skip this song.
Very interesting piece of music and poetry. I hesitate to call it a song. The team at RP manages to find the most interesting and eclectic music on the planet.
Not sure which is worse- the simplistic beat or the poseur complaining
Hilarious (I live in England). 😁
LCD Soundsystem anyone? Losing my edge to a letter….?
This is great
I dig it
Best song I've heard all week!
Like the bass line, but that's about it.
