We're the Beta Band and we're nice and clean
We all ????? the light and the ????? never mean
Times have changed we used to be smelly
We lived in the slides until the fun beat the telly
Since we've been signed we've been real good
We always wash our hands and chew our food
???????? are our favourite dish
Hot and spicy and chicken-a-mish
In the world of fashion there's two-shine rice
Fancy eating curry in the office all right
???????????????????
??????????? The Beta Band ????????
It all started in London Town
When we gave a demo to Phil Brown
Then we met Miles at Parlophone
Let him hear our style of fun
???????????????????
The next two weeks spent cutting four tracks
A manager was needed to make us complete
Miles knew a ????? we should meet

Dirty kay caras one
Here we go now

His name was Steve
With the broken specs
Quiet man with enough respect
We met at Nachos screamed the plate
A meal like that, yo, we never ate
Then we met Brian and the Microdot crew
Martin Matt and John Plateaux [or] John Platt too
Adrenalin village was the place to be
We had no money so they got us in free
The first thing Dave the dead-end boss
Make us play Water Rats in Kings Cross
We played five songs, got credit for four
It went down well so we decided to tour
Next up, yo, henry niche
Making the show go without a hitch
Up and down the country and side to side
Big yin driving, yo, a bumpy ride
Miles gave us an album deal
We said yes and went for a meal
Drinking champagne at EMI
The irony almost made us cry
Make love

[Next few lines are sung over the top of each over]
Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo
We're going into the next section now it's going to be rock'n'roll man
Come on
Make stone cold love, stone cold
Get yer blazers on
This ones for Scotland man, Scotland

Robert Jones
Well we went to Wales and we pattied around
We ended up with The Patty Patty Sound
With an open mind we went for a tea
Chris the sounds man he got it all on me
Yeah________________

????????? hold 'em forget my pills
Twidling around about the ????? dales
Martin called me to keep them all
Chris said ????????
Well we started getting on, on Radio One
When Jo Whiley got a fax from my mum
Mary Ann Hobbs is a very nice lady
I made a man ?????????

Yeah we lived in this house all ????? free
And we started recording the third EP
With the ?????? sacked and the mardi-gras
All we needed was a little soul

Well we thought this time where are we gonna start
We made a new groove and the band some ??????
?????????????????????
We called it Los Amigos Del Beta Bandidos

Did you get that?
