Broilers - Oi! To the World

Haji was a punk just like any other boy
And he never had no trouble 'til he started up his oi band
Safe in the garage or singing in the tub
'Til Haji went too far and he plugged in at the pub

'Twas a cold Christmas Eve when Trevor and the skins
Popped in for a pint and to nick a bag of crisps
Trevor liked the music but not the Unity
He unwound Haji's turban and knocked him to his knees

If God came down on Christmas Day
I know exactly what He'd say
He'd say oi (oi) to the punks and oi (oi) to the skins
Oi to the world and everybody wins

Haji was a bloody mess, he ran out through the crowd
He said, "We'll meet again we are bloody and unbowed"
Trevor called his bluff and told him where to meet
Christmas day on the roof down at twenty Oxford Street

If God came down on Christmas Day
I know exactly what He'd say
He'd say oi (oi) to the punks and oi (oi) to the skins
Oi to the world and everybody wins

On the roof with the nun chucks Trevor broke a lot of bones
But Haji had a sword like that guy in Indiana Jones

Police sirens wailing (oi), a bloody dying man (oi)
Haji was alone (oi) and abandoned by his band (oi)
Trevor was there fading (oi) and still so full of hate (oi)
When the skins left him there (oi) and went down the fire escape (oi)

Haji saw the north star shining more then ever
So he made a tourniquet from his turban saving Trevor
They repelled down the roof with the rest of the turban
And went back to the pub where they bought each other bourbon

If God came down on Christmas Day
I know exactly what He'd say
He'd say oi to the punks and oi to the skins
Oi to the world and everybody wins
If God came down on Christmas Day (oi, oi, oi)
I know exactly what He'd say (oi, oi, oi)
He'd say oi to the punks and oi to the skins (oi, oi, oi)
But oi to the world and everybody wins (oi, oi, oi)
