DESCRIPTION:
Medicine Stu on guest vocals
( taken by surprise ) Nice surprise I say!
Firstly: This is a cover. Don't post comments telling us the obvious. I know it's not the Replacements. ( That would be a whole new story...)

I guess The Shadowcops knew how much Stu worships the Mats and Westerberg and caught him out a bit here asking him to sing on a new song in their set.

The Shadowcops live
at the Thatched House in Stockport

God, what a mess, on the ladder of success
Where you take one step and miss the whole first rung
Dreams unfulfilled, graduate unskilled
It beats pickin' cotton and waitin' to be forgotten
We are the sons of no one, bastards of young
We are the sons of no one, bastards of young
The daughters and the sons
Clean your baby womb, trash that baby boom
Elvis in the ground, there'll ain't no beer tonight
Income tax deduction, what a hell of a function
It beats pickin' cotton and waitin' to be forgotten
We are the sons of no one, bastards of young
We are the sons of no one, bastards of young
The daughters and the sons
Unwillingness to claim us, ya got no word (war?) to name us
The ones who love us best are the ones we'll lay to rest
And visit their graves on holidays at best
The ones who love us least are the ones we'll die to please
If it's any consolation, I don't begin to understand them
We are the sons of no one, bastards of young
We are the sons of no one, bastards of young
The daughters and the sons
Young...take it, it's yours...
