lyrics
wot really makes your fire burn
wot makes you want to scream
do u shuffle through the city streets
or chase the teenage dream
did u know you are unique
or do others 4 you speak
it doesn’t matter who u are
take a short cut to be a star
yeah she can move
we can mould her
feel his appeal
he’s gonna be our little soldier
be our little soldier
is Mass produced appealing?
it doesn’t have to have a meaning
as long as it makes critical mass
its bland but makes fast cash
wot makes you want to scream
do u shuffle through the city streets
or chase the teenage dream
did u know you are unique
or do others 4 you speak
it doesn’t matter who u are
take a short cut to be a star
yeah she can move
we can mould her
feel his appeal
he’s gonna be our little soldier
be our little soldier
is Mass produced appealing?
it doesn’t have to have a meaning
as long as it makes critical mass
its bland but makes fast cash

about
The Scratch St Albans, UK
A rock band from St.Albans & Firm believers in DIY ethic they released their 1st single as 7” vinyl only in 2002 & was
stocked by Rough Trade in London.
An amalgum of T.Rex, Velvet Undergroud & other good things plus a big dollop of themselves. Eccentric english rock‘n’roll, with weird catchy riffs. Dark & other times funny, they don’t do po-faced indie thank god! [Marco Pirroni, The Wolfmen]
