Recorded just days after the BRIT Awards 2013, Robbie Williams reunites with songwriter and producer Guy Chambers to deliver this tongue-in-cheek track dedicated to the British awards ceremony. Described within the lyrics by Robbie himself as part of a "midlife crisis", the song attacks the BRITs for being "corporate" and "boring", reminiscing on his late 90'd heyday with plenty of references to past events and controversies both in- and outside the BRITs. Robbie performed at the 2013 BRITs ceremony and Guy Chambers was present, albeit seated "near the toilets".Highlight lyrics you want to quote as your Facebook status then click the ‘Post’ button.

Verse 1Well that Brits night was so fucking boring
Past the days of yes, yes, Charlene
Coke in the bogs 'til 7 in the morning
Look the wrong way and we end up brawling
When I had a bit of beef with you know who
And I fucked a few female stars or two
Nearly everything I said I'd end up getting screwed
Spitting at the paps, looking rude in the news
Oh yes, you're still rocking with the best
Second person in my year to have touched a breast
I'm nearly 40 now and I'm still impressed
Here's the midlife crisis I guess
Oh I recall, taking in the wonder of it all
ChorusI'm still looking for an answer through the looking glass
Still not concentrating at the back of the class
No thanks sir, this one's for you
It's like a VD clinic, only pricks are in it
So fucking dull and professional and timid
To be frank sir, I prefer this showbiz chancer
I still want to get laid by you right
Verse 2Now I know I've got fat but make no mistake
Every million that I make they bake me a cake
So I've got plenty, 120
Range Rovers and tweed like I'm land of gentry
I still want to get you naked
I'll see you in the summer, so glad you could make it
I'll be that mega white thing, fast as lightning
Knebworth shape but twice as frightening
If they can't be bothered, then I promise you this
If they won't entertain you then I'll do my fucking best
ChorusLooking for an answer through the looking glass
Still not concentrating at the back of the class
No thanks sir, this one's for you
It's like a VD clinic, only pricks are in it
So fucking corporate and professional and timid
To be frank sir, I prefer this showbiz chancer
I still want to get laid by you
BridgeWould you let me lay you down right here?
Would you let me live?
ChorusI'm still looking for an answer through the looking glass
Still not concentrating at the back of the class
No thanks sir, this one's for you
It's like a VD clinic, only pricks are in it
So fucking dull and professional and timid
To be frank sir, I prefer this showbiz chancer
I'm still looking for an answer through the looking glass
Still not concentrating at the back of the class
No thanks sir, this one's for you
It's like a VD clinic, only pricks are in it
So fucking corporate and professional and timid
To be frank sir, I prefer this showbiz chancer
