| i think the point of this song, j0k3r 31, is that stupid labels like "boot boys" and "trad skins" only split people apart and while it might be fun to create an identity for yourself like that it shouldnt get in the way of a friendship, fuck i've never heard of either of those things. They "think" the other is a mod or a punk. when he says "tell me what your seein'" its because they are seeing each other differently to the way he is, and he doesnt like the way its going "what the uck were they thinking". still i dont get why he says "Outside similarities but no they don't feel the same" because that suggests that they look the same but are different inside, which seems like the opposite of the rest of the song. | |

| i cant really help but it seems that they both are skins. but jimmys more of a trad skin and johnnys a boot boy. difference is boot boys listen to more oi (last resort, opressed ect) and trads listen to oi but will also listen to alot of ska and reggea | |
