Oh broken society, how you've let us down. We taught you how to stand in line, push buttons, live off candyfloss and chips, and spend money that doesn't exist. And the next thing you know, you're side-by-side, texting for reinforcement, buzzing off an overdose of sugar and stealing from our High Streets. What on Earth were you thinking?
A big flashing, sexually ambiguous thank you to: Laura M (camera), Steve Bray (editor), Daniela M (makeup), the bankers (silent b, voiced w) Giorgio Lambru, Pritpal Warner and Michal Farat, and you too - yes you in the audience.
Shot at The Premises, Hackney Road - with big mirrors, comfy sofas and nice staff. Not the wizard variety. Thank you nice staff.

BAD GAMES LYRICS (radio edit)
Fly-tipping is the native sport in Bow
Shoplifting is our only shot at gold
Someone's on the track again, Mile End
There are flowers in the road, but the lampposts are gold
Guess the people weren't told this town has been sold
There's something happening to me
Every rucksack is a bomb, every youngster's got a gun
There's something happening to me
Bought questions, screened answers. Legacies for Lords and co. (get down)
I'm living where the rats won't go (Plaistow)
I'm living where the kids get lines (of coke)
I'm living in a hole, but since the lampposts turned gold
The rent's gone sky high; kick the mishaps aside
There's something happening to me
Every rucksack is a bomb, every youngster's got a gun
There's something happening to me
Bought questions, screened answers. Bonuses for CEOs
Promises of jobs and gold
Yet the only thing they hold is their heads in their hands
Crawling over the finishing line, long after the race had ended
They're taking the kids down to Bow...
Don't get your girlfriend into trouble, oh no
They're using batons in our streets
Battery-reared teens, labelled enemies of peace
There's something happening to me
Bought questions, screened answers. Legacies for Lords and co.
Something's died inside of me
Keep them aiming low, fed on chips and stupid flashing logos
There's something happening to me
She said get down...
...and hide.
