The Beta Band Rap (Live)- The Beta Band[00:00:01]

We're the Beta Band and we're nice and clean[00:00:13]

We're always polite and hardly ever mean[00:00:16]

Times have changed we used to be smelly[00:00:18]

We lived in a squat 'til a punk nicked our telly[00:00:21]

Since we've been signed we eat real good[00:00:24]

We always wash our hands and chew our food[00:00:27]

Quashis rotis are our favourite dish[00:00:30]

Served spicy with chicken or fish[00:00:33]

In the world of fashion there's two shining lights[00:00:36]

Nancy and Caroline they helped us alright[00:00:39]

And Gordon Anderson played a big part[00:00:42]

Just when the Beta Band was about to start[00:00:45]

It all started in London town[00:00:48]

When we gave our demo to Phil Brown[00:00:50]

Then we met Miles at Parlophone[00:00:53]

And let him hear Dogs Got A Bone[00:00:56]

He said go to Falkner and put it on wax[00:01:00]

So the next week was spent cutting four tracks[00:01:02]

Now a manager was needed to make us complete[00:01:05]

Miles knew a Wiganer we should meet[00:01:08]

His name was Dave with the broken specs[00:01:23]

A quiet manner and nuff respec[00:01:26]

We met at Nanchos and cleaned the plate[00:01:29]

A meal like that we'd never ate[00:01:32]

Then we met Brian and the Microdot crew[00:01:34]

Martin Matt and John Platt too[00:01:37]

Adrenalin Village was the place to be[00:01:40]

We had no money so they got us in free[00:01:43]

The first thing Dave did as boss[00:01:46]

Was make us play Water Rats in Kings Cross[00:01:49]

We played five songs got credit for four[00:01:52]

Went down well so we decided to tour[00:01:55]

Next up was Henry and Nich[00:01:58]

Making the show go without a hitch[00:02:01]

Up and down the country from side to side[00:02:04]

Wi big yin driving it's a bumpy ride[00:02:07]

Miles gave us an album deal[00:02:10]

We said yes and went for a meal[00:02:12]

Drinking champagne at EMI[00:02:15]

The irony almost made us cry[00:02:18]

This one's for Scotland[00:02:30]

We went to Wales and fannyed around[00:02:44]

Ended up with the Patty Patty Sound[00:02:47]

With open minds we went to achieve[00:02:50]

Chris Allison caught it all on Neive[00:02:52]

He hummed and hawed and became a pest[00:02:56]

Twittering on about the old Neive desk[00:02:58]

We had to call in Keith and Miles[00:03:01]

When Chris' hair got caught in the dials[00:03:03]

We started to get known on Radio One[00:03:06]

When Jo Whiley got a fax from my mum[00:03:09]

Mary Ann Hobbs invited us to play[00:03:12]

At Maida Vale we spent a day[00:03:14]

With Chris Allison's hair cut free[00:03:17]

It was time for Cornwall and the third EP[00:03:20]

With a glock and a sax and a mighty gong[00:03:22]

All we needed was a hit pop song[00:03:25]

We thought this time we were on a good start[00:03:28]

But they made a new rule that banned us from the chart[00:03:30]

The songs were good so we didn't give a toss[00:03:33]

And we called it Los Amigos Del Beta Bandidos[00:03:36]

Hello Nina Chakrabati[00:03:42]
