Be Somebody
You know there’s no such thing a free meal
And there aint no future in British Steel
No the only thing which really makes us smile
Is a joke and a laugh and a night on the tiles
No one ever gives you anything for free
Unless you start sleeping with the BBC
Nigel got a job in the city
Works in a department store
Slogging his guts out all through the week
Looking forward to the weekend score
But tonight he’s gonna be somebody
Dancing his heart out with a local girl
She doesn’t care whether he’s got no money
There’s more to life then they teach you at school
And tonight’s he’s gonna reach somebody
Falling in love with a local girl
She’s doesn’t care whether he’s got no money
She know he’s got a heart of solid gold
Solid gold, Solid gold
You know there’s no such thing as a ticket to ride
Or satisfaction without a sacrifice
The only thing that's really true about life
Is that the older you get the more you compromise
No ones gonna hand it to you on a plate
You've gotta give give give before you take take take
Nigel got a job in the city
Works in a department store
Thought his future was as good as sorted
But he’s happy in his little world
But tonight he’s gonna be somebody
Dancing his heart out with a local girl
She doesn’t care whether he’s got no money
There’s more to life then they teach you at school
And tonight’s he’s gonna reach somebody
Falling in love with a local girl
She’s doesn’t care whether he’s got no money
She knows he’s got a heart of solid gold
Solid gold, Solid gold
Be somebody, be somebody, be somebody, be somebody
be somebody, be somebody, be somebody, be somebody
Solid gold, solid gold, solid gold
