Denim Follow

In the '70s there was long hair
There were left-over hippies everywhere
And I should know 'cause I was there
In the '70s they had prayer mats
There were stringy beards and floppy hats
And men looked like Jesus in crushed velvet flares

And in the '70s there were Osmonds
There were lots of Osmonds
There were lots of little Osmonds
Everywhere everywhere everywhere

In the 70's there were skinheads
There were bovver boys and brummie reds
And greasers, grebos judge and natty dread
In the 70's there were chopper bikes
Oxford bags and kung fu fights
Trojan sounds Lee Perry dub

And in the '70s there were Osmonds
There were lots of Osmonds
There were lots of little Osmonds
Everywhere everywhere everywhere

In the 70's there were lots of bombs
They blew my home town up and
Lots of people were killed
And on the news the relatives cried
Everyone knew someone who'd died
They'll never forget it for the rest of their lives

And all around the people say
We hate the I-R-A
And we asked for justice but it never come

And in the '70s there were Osmonds
There were lots of Osmonds
There were lots of little Osmonds
Everywhere everywhere everywhere

Paper Lace and Candlewick Green
Mouldy Old Dough Chicory Tip
Gilbert O and Hurricane Smith
Billy Don't Be A Hero hey David Rock On

The black panther went inside
And Jeremy Thorpe oh he resigned
And at school the girls would bring
A thousand volts of holt and sing
Hey there lonely girl impossible love

And in the '70s there were Osmonds
There were lots of Osmonds
There were lots of little Osmonds
Everywhere everywhere everywhere

In the 70's the Rollers came
Best retired from the game
And Cassidy quit oh what a shame
In the 70's I was just a kid
Still knew what it was all about
I soaked it in now it's all dripping out

And in the '70s there were Osmonds
There were lots of Osmonds
There were lots of little Osmonds
Everywhere everywhere everywhere
