[Intro]
You are one cheeky wee shite
I am fucking sick of ye
I'm over it with ye
Get out of ma house right now, I'm done
[Verse 1]
What's it like?
Come on, tell me what it's like
You got the life
And I only want a slice
Give me advice
Nah, that don't seem right
I'm too nice
You've already pulled a knife
[Pre-Chorus]
I never knew that it would be so easy
I never knew that it would need no manual
[Verse 2]
What's it like?
Come on, tell me what it's like
What's your sign?
I hope it's not the same as mine
What's it likе?
What's it like?
I get my bite oncе in a lifetime, twice
[Pre-Chorus]
I never knew that it would be so easy
I never knew that everything is not enough
[Chorus]
Bang on the gong
My moment has come
Bang on the gong
Phenomenon
Even if I'm wrong
I still got it on
Bang on the gong
Phenomenon
[Interlude]
Right, stop it, stop it, you're annoying me, get away or I'll kick yer arse
[Verse 3]
More champagne?
Write a letter in cocaine
Solid choice
Glasgow or Detroit?
Overpriced
Hurry up and buy it twice
Underripe
I never seem to time it right
[Pre-Chorus]
I never knew that it would be so easy
Black card, Banksy, mirrored ceilings
I never knew that it would be so easy
Park my Giallo Lamborghini
[Chorus]
Bang on the gong
My moment has come
Bang on the gong
Phenomenon
Even if I'm wrong
I still got it on
Bang on the gong
(Phenomenon)
Bang on the gong
My moment has come
Bang on the gong
Phenomenon
Even if I'm wrong
I still got it on
Bang on the gong
Phenomenon
[Outro]
I'm sick of ye

We let the director Nick Afchain take the lead and he imagined Bang On The Gong as an old seedy ’70s TV show. It’s very tongue-in-cheek, which matches the song because the track doesn’t take itself too seriously.
It’s been so much more relaxing letting people who inspire you take the reins, instead...
Taking more than a little influence from a recent movie, the possible narrative of our video highlights the fleeting nature of success, while also shining a light on how far we’ve come as a society since those days. After 18 months of turmoil is there any other way to play the visuals than to have f...
‘Bang on the Gong’ was craving laughter, wanting to have a good time. I was imagining that when this record comes out, maybe people will want to dance and let their hair down and have a bit of fun. It’s got that Detroit, heavy, industrial, funk groove that runs through a lot of the music there. I th...
