Artist/Band: The Streets
Lyrics for Song: Let's Push Things Forward
Lyrics for Album: Radio 1's Live Lounge [2006]



This ain't the down it's a upbeat

Make it complete, so what's the story?

Guaranteed accuracy, enhanced CD

Latest technology, darts at Treble 20



Huge non recuperable advance, majors be vigilant

I excel in both content and deliverance

So let's put on our classics

And we'll have a little dance, shall we?



No sales pitch, no media hype

No hydro, it's nice and ripe

I speak in communications in BOLD type



This ain't your archetypal street sound

Scan for ultrasounds north, south, east, west

And all 'round and then to the underground



You say that everything sounds the same

Then you go buy them

There's no excuses my friend

Let's push things forward



You say that everything sounds the same

Then you go buy them

There's no excuses my friend

Let's push things forward



As we progress to the checkpoint

I wholeheartedly agree with your viewpoint

But this ain't your typical Garage joint

I make points which hold significance



That ain't a bag, it's a shipment

This ain't a track, it's a movement

I got the settlement

My frequencies are transient



And resonate your eardrums

I make bangers not anthems

Leave that to the Artful Dodger

The broad shouldered, 51% shareholder



You won't find us on Alta Vista, cult classic, not bestseller

You're gonna need more power

Plug in the free phase and the generator

Crank it up to the gigawatts

Critics ready with your potshots, the plot thickens



Put on your mittens for these sub-zero conditions

But remember I'm just spittin'

Remember I'm just spittin'

Once bitten forever smitten



You say that everything sounds the same

Then you go buy them

There's no excuses my friend

Let's push things forward



You say that everything sounds the same

Then you go buy them

There's no excuses my friend

Let's push things forward



Split jewels like eastern riches, junkie fixes

Around here we say birds, not bitches

As London Bridge burns down, Brixton's burnin' up

Turns out you're in luck so I know this dodgy fuck in The Duck



So it's just another show flick

From your local city poet

In case you geezers don't know it

Lets push things forward



It's a tall order but we're taller

Callin' all mawlers, backstreet brawlers

Corner shop crawlers, victories flawless

Love us or hate us but don't slate us



Don't conform to formulas

Pop genres and such, Sharp darts, Double Dutch

Parked cars, troubles a much with more Bud

Let's push things forward



You say that everything sounds the same

Then you go buy them

There's no excuses my friend

Let's push things forward



You say that everything sounds the same

Then you go buy them

There's no excuses my friend

Let's push things forward
