Just a Little Bit
Andy Couzens Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Your careering off the track
Your too busy doing nothing
You don't see that it won't last
When your strung across the age gap
All your friends spin down the drain
And your the proof of that old cliche
If I could only have my time again
Hand on-off the handle
Where's your self respect?
Your water up all sucked ending
Where's your measurement now?
Think your the artful Dodger
You can only dodge for so long
And when fate it pulls your plug out
You'll wonder what went wrong
Hand on-off your handle
Where's your self respect?
Your water up all sucked ending
Where's your measurement now?
There's no way back
No way back
Just a little bit
Just a little bit
When your stung across the age gap
All your friends speed down the train
And your to prune that old cliche
If I could only have my time again
Hand on-off the handle
Where's your self respect?
Your water up all sucked ending
Where's your measurement now?
Nowhere fast
Nowhere fast
Just a little bit
Just a little bit
The lyrics of Andy Couzens's song "Just a Little Bit" convey a warning message about making questionable choices in life. The opening lines suggest that the singer is addressing someone who is infatuated with a person they believe they love, but is headed towards a path of self-destruction. The words "you're too busy doing nothing, you don't see that it won't last," symbolize the person's blindness to the reality of the situation. The singer then goes on to say that "when you're strung across the age gap, all your friends spin down the drain," indicating that the person's actions are causing harm to their social life.

Exactly right, that point was missed by so many commentators on this murder. What was Sarah Everard to do when arrested by a serving police officer, displaying a genuine Metropolitan Police warrant card? She did what most law abiding females would do - she obeyed, believing she could trust the police. And she was handcuffed, abducted, raped and murdered by that pervert. There's only one thing more dangerous than a sexual predator - a sexual predator with police powers.
Cressida Dick had to go for multiple reasons. Firstly, Wayne Couzens (known to his colleagues as The Rapist), operated on her watch - what's more, he thrived, and became more depraved and dangerous on her watch. It isn't acceptable that she tried to claim he was simply one rotten apple in a sea of good 'uns - the underlying sexism in the force his vile crimes revealed, told its own sinister story. How many more potential Wayne Couzens are there in police uniform right now?
The Met was clearly a deeply misogynistic organisation under her watch (this video didn't even mention Couzens' revolting macho text/sex chats with colleagues about female officers, and sharing of online porn etc). While Cressida Dick can't be held solely responsible for her officers' inappropriate conduct, there's no evidence she did anything to acknowledge, least of all tackle the serious issue of misogyny in the force.
Equally shocking was Cressida Dick's disastrous mishandling of the demonstration by women against male violence. That such an event should have featured ugly scenes of male police officers manhandling and handcuffing female protesters - after one had done exactly that to Sarah Everard before raping and murdering her - beggars belief! If Cressida Dick was any kind of leader worthy of the name, she would have firmly instructed her officers to use a kid glove approach, and only take such action as the very last resort should violence erupt.
Those women were not violent. They were angry at the murder of another woman by a serving police officer, and they were bloody well right to be!

@@newleft2254 There's no evidence Wayne Couzens had ever worked directly with the royal family. If he had, you can be sure the royal-obsessed British press would have written reams about it (with photos, if any existed!)
The media made much of the fact Couzens was with the 'Parliamentary and Diplomatic Protection Command' ('PDPC'), whose armed officers guard the Palace of Westminster/Houses of Parliament, the parliamentary estate in the heart of London with the highest security status (comprising the House of Commons, House of Lords, Westminster Hall, St Stephens Chapel and Big Ben).
But in fact Wayne Couzens spent most of his time in a far less prestigious environment, patrolling foreign embassy buildings. 'PDPC' officers have a strong anti terrorism brief, so carrying a firearm is crucial.
Many people were shocked that a man of Couzens' criminal depravity had cleared the various hurdles necessary to join the British police, and found a safe haven within that organisation. More concerning still, are the multiple allegations of sexual crimes against him that were reported to police but never even investigated. The earliest of these sexual allegations was made back in 2002 and was on his record - but despite supposed background checks and vetting, it didn't stop him being accepted as a special constable.
His sexual offending continued once he had become a full time, armed police officer. In 2015 a fellow motorist dialled 911 and reported seeing him driving around Kent naked from the waist down. Kent Police took no further action over the incident.
Three allegations were made against Couzens, just 2 weeks before he abducted and murdered Sarah Everard. It was alleged he exposed himself and masturbated in a McDonalds Restaurant in front of female staff on two occasions on 28th January 2021. And just 72 hours before the 3rd March murder of Sarah Everard, he again exposed himself at a fast food restaurant, and was again reported to police, along with his vehicle registration details.
The correct procedure when such an allegation is made against a serving police officer, is that they are immediately suspended from duties while an investigation is launched. But at the time of his arrest for murder, he had faced such no police investigation for any of those serious alleged incidents. Why not? It strongly suggests a sex offender being protected from consequences/prosecution, because of his police status.
That he'd apparently got away with those crimes (at best had police dragged their heels), is perhaps less surprising once you consider his sinister email and cellphone history. His electronic conversations show he'd found kindred spirits among his law enforcement colleagues. Vile, misogynist hardcore porn and 'jokes' were regularly shared between Couzens and fellow officers. That his nickname among his police peers was 'The Rapist', speaks volumes about him - and them. It was widely known he was attracted to violent pornography. Couzens, with his highly sexualised and contemptuous view of the female sex, was not a fish out of water in the police force - he felt right at home there.
The now former Metropolitan Police Commissioner Cressida Dick, played the Wayne Couzens scandal in an all too predictable way. She claimed he was merely a lone bad apple, a freak, a one-off aberration, who by some utterly random and never to be repeated fluke, found himself not only wearing a police uniform and wielding police powers, but also carrying a powerful firearm while serving the nation's most high security section of the capital city. If only that were true - in reality Couzens' rise up the ranks of a horrible macho organisation was only too understandable!
True, his horrific kidnap, rape and murder of a female member of the public was thankfully a very rare event in the history of the British police. But his hateful, sexualised and predatory view of the female sex was already prevalent among his fellow officers - as those umpteen toxic, text, Whatsapp and email messages prove.
In the wake of the flawed investigation into the racist, 1993 murder of black teen Stephen Lawrence, police were subjected to a major investigation into 'institutionalised racism' in the force. The 1999 MacPherson Report was extensive, and found evidence of multiple police failings in serving its non-white citizens. There have been calls for a similar investigation into institutionalised misogyny in the police, but those calls have been ignored.
Misogyny is not a victimless crime, far from it. Misogyny brutally ends the lives of countless women and girls around the globe, every single year. Yet misogyny is still not legally recognised as a hate crime, and still isn't taken seriously - not even by civilised, democratic societies. Sexism certainly isn't taken anywhere near as seriously as racism rightly is. There simply isn't a cultural appetite to subject the police to scrutiny on this issue, and make it face sanctions for its misogyny. But there should be!
After the 2021 kidnap, rape and murder of a female citizen by a serving police officer, now more than ever police misogyny within the ranks should be acknowledged by police leaders, and subjected to the forensic examination of a public enquiry.
In a country where two females are killed every week at the hands of a man, women and girls need to feel confident they can trust male law enforcement officers. Serving policeman Wayne Couzens' murder of Sarah Everard, the total lack of action by police over multiple reports of his previous sexual offending against women, and the dark internet history between him and his colleagues, confirms they cannot.
Only one thing presents a bigger potential danger to a female, than a male - and that's a male with police powers.
@andrellegoodman5139
A policeman, with the nickname "the rapist"?! All of his colleagues are guilty as well. Horrifically disgusting, and neglectful, for shame.
@carolinemahoney5252
Well said! Couldn't agree more!
@shadetreader
That is exactly what cops are like.
@documentariesbycategory1483
Disturbingly, males with antisocial traits, aggression and violence, as well as those with psychopathic traits are actually specifically attracted to police, security, military roles.
Not my opinion, there’s solid research on this.
It does make sense if one perceives those roles as a “socially acceptable opportunity” to take a position of dominance, power and control, engage with aggression, or even violence. Not only that but, being in a field dominated by men with traditional gender roles reduces the possibility that obvious and fucked up red flags like him being nicknamed “the rapist“ will be taken seriously and reported.
@susanofhullhumberside4753
Even his non-white colleagues? You would never call them out.
@alistairpayne5357
All the same .....Rotherham rochdale, Oxford Telford, Glasgow etc etc ...nothing done , no learning from mistakes . Just the usual from useless public services
@marialovespalmtrees
I love how you go straight into the case and don't waste the first 5 mins with intros and asking everyone to subscribe etc (it's so annoying!). Definitely one of the best crime channels! Thankyou for such well delivered cases.
@monicamay4735
Or that they don’t interrupt their videos to talk about their sponsors.
@harveyreece5585
Greed. However it has probably cost the channel owner 100s of thousands of subscribers. Humans are robots - hear a command, obey!
@molliwilson5639
Well said. I agree with you
