Can you blatantly say looking straight in her face
That you aren't telling tales to her. If you never tell a lie to her, You don't have to remember anything, It all goes out the window when, I try to do it myself, Can you blatantly say looking straight in her face that you aint telling tales to her. That you never get stressed when she questions events you'll be best to forget. Can you actually blag when the lamb glances when you prang and your chatting, That if you had the chance to go back to her pad for a passionate act you wouldn't have it? Oi, why's that then? Its 'cause the reason you been faithful is Its been so good You never seen temptation Deep down you hear the mans burden We all have a mans burden You'll always be a bad person It's getting you down You were letting her down, You were tempted and failed. You showed her up, You need to be owning up you need to show her you love her for once. It was an extreme circumstance it was she that advanced She defeated you gradually So you must then be honest you must then get on this. Mend the wrong shit. If you never tell a lie to her, You don't have to remember anything, It all goes out the window when, I try to do it myself Oi oi, so why you wanna phone up? Why you wanna own up? You were selfish and so dumb. To ease it off your chest, to be relieved of the mess that's being proper selfish, I been in some broken moments I know what goes on the road but there's a road you chose however coked Up your brain you know you chose to strain you know it was your game oi But it makes you see things clearer It was weird though man But you didn't wanna be with her Seriously back home If a girl was to even hear It would spare her weak heart She have no fear The chance to see the fit thing naked will spell and memorize you. You'll disregard the ways the lady in your life inspires you. Which is why to day she tires of you, you'll be crying and howling. And if you had the chance to go back to her pad for a passionate act you wont allow it. But if your plans for a chance to go back ain't even had. Then the passionate act won't happen, 'cause you plan not to have the chance, Rewind back if that sounded fast. Oi you can't think straight, you gotta avoid the situation ignore what she's doing. You may be mugged if you trust too much but it will fuck you up more worrying about trust If you never tell a lie to her, You don't have to remember anything, It all goes out the window when, I try to do it myself You may be mugged if you trust too much But it will more fuck you up It will more fuck you up worrying about trust |

How did he not find the baggy, with his hand in my shoe? Way too close for me, oh well at least they allowed me through Should be a good night in here, Ramo in the main room People keep pushing me though, no reception on the phone And I'm thinking.. (woman's voice) Lights are blinding my eyes They said they'd be here they said, they said in the corner And I'm thinking.. People pushing by, and walking off into the night These look well speckly, bit of green and blue Threes is well cheap though, so I'll take three if I need to Right I'm on the plan, I wish the bouncers would go away Borrow water off this man, here goes nothing OK And I'm thinking.. Lights are blinding my eyes That's proper rank, that tastes like hairspray And I'm thinking.. People pushing by, and walking off into the night I hate coming to the entrance, just to get bars on my phone You have no new messages, so why haven't they phoned? Menu, write message, so where are you and Simone? Send message, Dan's number, where've they gone? And I'm thinking... Lights are blinding my eyes Why's the message pending? where the fuck are ya? And I'm thinking... People pushing by, and walking off into the night Hmm, brandy or beer? Water's a good idea Wish that bar lady'd appear and come serve over here Where the fuck could they be? still not over in the corner This nights a tragedy, I keep thinking I saw her And I'm thinking.. Lights are blinding my eyes No that's not them, that's not them either... And I'm thinking... People pushing by, and walking off into the night I'm still not feeling anything, this has got to be a dud It's been ages since I necked it, and smoked six tabs to the nub Belly's not even tingling, I just feel a bit pissed No-one looks like mingling, I can't see her or him And I'm thinking... Lights are blinding my eyes I'm gonna do another I think, Yeah, one more, these are shit And I'm thinking... People pushing by, and walking off into the night These toilets are a piss take, queue's bigger than the door Gotta get rid of this pill taste, what are they chattin' so much for? Glad I'm not a girl in this place, they'll be here til dawn Sure my belly's tingling a bit, somethings happening I'm sure And I'm thinking... Lights are blinding my eyes Maybe I shouldn't have done the second one, I feel all fidgety and warm.. People pushing by, and walking off into the night Whoa, everything in the room is spinning, I think I'm going to fall down My heart's beating to quick, I'm fucking tripping out I wonder whether they got in, turned away no doubt Who cares, there is a tune coming in, that one noise is like I'm thinking... Lights are blinding my eyes My eyes are rolling back, I'm rubbing my thighs with my hand And I'm thinking... People pushing by, and walking off into the night Yeah yeah they cheer Can they see my hand in the air? Need to wave 'em over here Swear Simone's kissing Dan My head is twisted sever, body's rushing everywhere They could have texted me when they were near, but I'm fucked and I don't Care Lights are blinding my eyes What was I thinking about? Ah who cares, I'm mashed People pushing by, and walking off into the night Totally fucked, can't hardly fucking stand This is fucking amazing |

Using the following, I'm going to show you:
A) how to con someone using their own greed, B) that you won't feel bad 'cos they're trying to con you anyway, and C) taking their money! As I have come to realize, running the beats is just getting people's confidence. This scam only works 'cos that man thinks he's working this scam And that you man off his mark Get your mate, let's call your mate piers No, not piers, let's call him Farquhar Anyway get Farquhar to crawl into a bar with his dog Like I said, the barman will try and con you later But you're gonna take all his money. Anyway, get Farquhar to pass into a local bar And call to the bar to look after a dog for a dart Just for twenty quid for a while, claiming that he hated it But it was worth more than his car This, by the way, requires that you find and supply Farquhar With an animal, and a life, from your local park. Get a nice dog that doesn't bark But not so nice that someone might miss this mutt from the park Anyway, using this technique you're gonna take all this man's money But you're not gonna care, cos he's gonna fucking deserve it [Chorus] You'll never con an honest john An honest john you can't drag down (exactly!) Con-do-lee get conned When they think they're the cunning one (it's all one big con) Neighbor you won't con An honest john Now listen, get Farquhar to dart out the bar And just shop for some garm's, maybe Just to pass an hour or so I would go shopping cos' I gave up drinking But whatever, just have Farquhar down the road Now you walk in the bar, walk up to the barman Order a jar, when you've caught him slouched on his own Start eying the dog that he's minding by his side Currently vibe him and start on about the dog you own. Start asking the barman, if it's his fine specimen of a dog Nod, smile, agree, look interested and cool When he tells you it's someone else's you've just left previous Tell him, 'this is a very rare breed of animal.' Last time I lied my manager swiped me But lie, and tell him it's like a fucking red-eared hunting spaniel. Tell him it's worth 600 quid and you would pay handsomely if you were to accept finance at all [Chorus] You'll never con an honest john (sometimes...) An honest john you can't drag down (...sometimes I think I should just go completely...) Condolee get conned When they think they're the cunning one Neighbor you won't con an honest john (keep listening though, it's important that you keep listening...) Now take all his shopping off him Get your mate Farquhar to pop in Looking straight gutted a bit later on He should order a jar, talk at the bar Ensure he looks calm, warm with the barman And generally start conversating on. Farquhar should start falling apart About how he's arsed up some chance And how arsed up his day was. Or in the event, the spread betting he's getting ready to accept That his rent's not getting payed up. The barman's mind will chime slowly for a while He might wipe the bar, as his mind is making sums. Farquhar should continue to moan about money And that this mutt is not the greatest of his worries. And like 'ching!', the barman will five out of six times Kindly offer his greed to buy the dog for a price of three hundred quid And after some bartering, your barman will haggle and charge harder In greed of the scent of the scheme in his head. (that's right, neighbor!) You'll never con an honest john An honest john you can't drag down Condolee get conned When they think they're the cunning one (the barman, is gonna see how much he can stitch you up for.) Neighbor you won't con an honest john (how does that work? cos' every time it's based around someone who thinks they're conning you.) They'll never imagine the whole scenario is prepared solely for him Why should he? That sort of paranoia can get you in the loony bin! As I have come to realize, running the beats is just getting people's confidence. And than taking their money! It's all one big con. |

'Cause her last relationship fucked her up
Got hurt majorly, finds it tough to trust Looked at the ashtray, then looked back up Spinnin' it away on the tabletop She looked much fitter than Saturday just She worked in JD's with Dan Back then I figured she was pretty damn rough But she was only wearin' her work stuff And in these clothes she looked more than buff She stirred her straw, sat up to adjust I told her I thought it was important That you could get lost in conversation Chattin' shit, sittin' in, oblivion With that person who's your special one She said she was the worst pool player under the sun But blokes go easy so she always won [Chorus] I saw this thing on ITV the other week Said, that if she played with her hair, she's probably keen She's playin' with her hair, well regularly So I reckon I could well be in She didn't look too bored with what I was sayin' Her hair looked much better than the other day She had her fingers 'round her hair, playin' I Saw on the telly that's a good indication Stood up to buy the next drink though, "Nay." Suppose that's just our girl's way I'm tryin' to think what else I could say Peelin' the label off, spinnin' the ashtray Yeah actually, yes, she did look pretty neat Her perfume smelled expensive and sweet I felt like my hair looked a bit cheap Wished I'd had it cut back last week She kept givin' me this look, cause she would speak Was she only friendly, or was she a keep? Asked her if she wanted the same again to drink Started to turn and get up out my seat [Chorus] She said that her close mates all were Always the most important thing to her I said I thought it was a bit more blurred She asked what I meant by that as she stirred I told her about the money and what had occurred With it goin' missing from the living room, so With my best mates all there standin' by Right where I left it, under their eyes So surely one of them might have spied What happened to my money at that time I felt like they were all smilin' on the side She was like "fair play" she couldn't say why She didn't know what all my mates were like And I said she just might be right Wish I had someone I could always rely Someone to get lost chattin' to all night [Chorus] As I walked back with more drinks to our place She had her phone stuck to the side of her face I sat for a minute while she chatted away 'Bout somethin' with her mom and her birthday Played for a bit with the same ashtray Thought about things while I sat and waited It was nice to chat about the shit in my head Someone who just listens to you instead I looked at the barman, wiping down again Looked at the football on the TV set Tryin' to look like I weren't just waitin' there For her conversation to come to an end I look at my watch and realized right then That, for three hours, been in conversation Before she put her phone down, she switched to silent And we carried on chattin' for more than that again [Chorus: Repeat 2X] |

A new day, another morning after
Leanin' back on my chair in a greasy spoon cafeteria Last night was some bit leeriness done our way But again we're back in like a day Chattin' shit sittin' at the wall table telling jokes Playin with the salt looking out the window Girl brings two plates of full English over With plenty of scrambled eggs and plenty of fried tomato Get my phone out about give this girl a shout See if she had a nice time last night uptown Ask if she fancy's tryin' it again some time Then Cal grabs the phone like oy!oy!oy!oy! [Chorus] Hold it down boy, your head's getting blurred I know you can't stop thinking of her By all means, you can vibe with this girl But just don't mug yourself, that's all don't mug yourself (Talking) Seriously Mike, you fucker No! No! No! I mean, I'll fuckin', I'm no way really tryin' I mean I'll fuckin', I can take it or leave it, believe And then Calvin's like, oy You need to hold it down Jack Put your phone back Quit starin' into space and eat your snack that's that She'll want you much more for not hangin' on Stop me if I'm wrong, Stop me if I'm wrong Why should she be the one who decides Whether it's off or on, or on, or off or on? Now the girl's rude, I now she's rude But she screwed right through you, you'll be on your knees soon [Chorus] And I'm like, honestly it's not like that Your actin' like I'm prancing like a sap jumpin' when she clap's and that Oy, do you really think I act whack 'Cause I'm telling you I'm servin' the aces and it's game set and match? Perfectly in control of this goal, I've got the lead role Won't be foldin', I'm older than you told, girl sold, high speed's gold Game over, game over, too cold [Chorus: Repeat 2X] |

[Chorus] Hold it down boy, your head's getting blurred I know you can't stop thinking of her By all means, you can vibe with this girl But just don't mug yourself, that's all don't mug yourself (Talking) Seriously Mike, you fucker No! No! No! I mean, I'll fuckin', I'm no way really tryin' I mean I'll fuckin', I can take it or leave it, believe And then Calvin's like, oy You need to hold it down Jack Put your phone back Quit starin' into space and eat your snack that's that She'll want you much more for not hangin' on Stop me if I'm wrong, Stop me if I'm wrong Why should she be the one who decides Whether it's off or on, or on, or off or on? Now the girl's rude, I now she's rude But she screwed right through you, you'll be on your knees soon [Chorus] And I'm like, honestly it's not like that Your actin' like I'm prancing like a sap jumpin' when she clap's and that Oy, do you really think I act whack 'Cause I'm telling you I'm servin' the aces and it's game set and match? Perfectly in control of this goal, I've got the lead role Won't be foldin', I'm older than you told, girl sold, high speed's gold Game over, game over, too cold [Chorus: Repeat 2X] |

If I want to sit in and drink super tenants in the day I will
No one's going to fucking tell me jack But can you rely on anyone in this world? No, you can't It's not my fault there's wall-to-wall empty cans Everyone wanted this to all go wrong for me from the start It's fucked up that a man's life can just be attacked Watching this morning with a beer Is much better than relying on Unknown cunts for mates I was given That don't have my back Scott texted me to say he'd have a look at the TV for me But I laid it down telling him to fuck right off chap Phoned this company out the yellow pages Told them to take away the TV and fix it quick snap The next day they took away the TV Told me they would repair the little bit That's broken round on the back I thought that would be that but the next bit was on top This was where it all started to get a bit out of hand [Chorus 1] No one gives a crap about Mike That's why I'm acting nasty You know what you can do with your life Introduce it up your jacksie 'Cause no one gives a crap about Mike That's why I'm acting nasty You know what you can do with your life Introduce it up your jacksie The TV man comes back later, knocks on mine To say he's found something in the back of the TV I'm looking at it absolutely speechless, can't quite believe He's trying to pull this fucking stunt on me I knew it was a simple case of the power supply gone on the back But he's trying to tap me up for more money He says it's not like that and I'm like "Fuck off and die!" And stick up my two fingers and one more to make three He says "Don't talk to me like that", and I don't understand My face is in his face, I tell him I understand perfectly And he grabs my shirt and I grab his face with my hand So he brings his fist up and twats me a good one on my cheek Now I'm trying to pull his head down so I can knee it But he's got my ear He's twisting it round so much that it's Really hurting me And we both go down on the floor, and he pushes my head back Onto the corner of the fridge which is, total agony Then he gets up and runs out the kitchen, and out of the door Shouting stuff to me, slams his door, shouting at me So here I am in my house, drinking on my own settee Everyone's a cunt in this life, no one's there for me [Chorus 1] If I want to sit in and drink super tenants in the day I will No one's going to fucking tell me jack But can you rely on anyone in this world? No, you can't It's all my fault there's wall-to-wall empty cans I sat in the kitchen all fucked off Imagining over and over what they're all doing behind my back Dodgy things going on, actions I regretted Stain bottle with a pipe and tin foil on the mat Scott texted me to say he'd have a look at the TV for me And I felt like just telling him to fuck right off chap But what he said about wanting to do the right thing by both mates And then opting to stay out? It seemed to match But I told him he could make it up by fixing the TV He said that's the least he could do to square things flat I thought that would be that but then the next bit was mad This is where everything started to all turn back [Chorus 2] The end of the something I did not want to end Beginning of hard times to come But something that was not meant to be is done And this is the start of what was He had to unscrew about fifteen screws Before he could pull the panel off the back To get in the fecking thing But just as he did so, he said he saw something That slipped inside behind the panel Down the back of it Must have been some leaflets or a bill maybe I didn't want to lose the bill in case it was a final warning So we both tried to get the back off and work out If there was any more screws to get out Or if we left any in And when he looked down the back of the TV his eyes just froze Before he rammed his hand in, saying, "No shit!" He's looking at me absolutely speechless He can't quite believe what he's trying to pull, out the slip I get up wondering what he's smiling about He's shaking his head at this point with, the biggest of grins I look down the back of the TV and that's where it was In all its glory?my thousand quid [Chorus 2] About two this afternoon the last of the people left my house 'Cause they never stop chatting 'til all the rackets gone I really feel like things clicked into place at some point Or maybe it's the fact that me and Alison really got on Or maybe it's that I realized that it is true No one's really there fighting for you in the last garrison No one except yourself that is No one except you You are the one who's got your back 'til the last deeds done Scott can't have my back 'til the absolute end 'Cause he's got to look out for what over his horizon He's gotta make sure he's not lonely, not broke It's enough to worry about keeping his own head above I shut the door behind me, huddled up in my coat Condensation floating off my breath, squinted out the sun My jeans feel a bit tight, think I washed them too high I was gonna be late, so I picked up my pace to run [Chorus 2: Repeat 4X] |

Leave it out Are you smoking something? Leave it out Mike just leave it just leave it We cannot have that behavior in this establishment S'not worth it mike, just leave it Don't touch me, s'not worth it Don't touch me, D, look 'm alright don't touch me For a while there I was thinkin' - yeah but what if?

I've got a girlfriend anyway (whoa, we've all had a drink mate) We're all a bit drunk, yeah we've had a few fair play I got this Stella I bombed from that last cafe This nights not even begun, yes yes oh yay I did fancy you a bit though yeah I must say I would rather I hadn't mugged myself on display But this is just another case of female stopping play On otherwise a total result of a holiday [Chorus] |

The fine art of hotel expressionism
And the sentiment with the kettlent condiments Compose your mood using the soap hanging chute(?) The minibar can be part of the art In the early hours of a blurry hotel you need guests of (?) My word is word if we earn success in hotel expressionism Stay away from (?) hotels so when wrecked there's no victim I've been ejected from hotels that then when I'm checking in will swear to be with them (swearin') Man, I'm not some crank vandal swinging the TV about at random Attacks to the lamp stand for a (?) is the art of action prove (?) Tediously mischief from (?) is why we hide from enemy pages Throwing the TV out the window mate is nothing clear of weak cliches It's vandalism an expressionists (?) we keen leaders associate to I'm talking E-convertibles (talking?) The fine art of hotel expressionism And the sentiment with the kettlent condiments Compose your mood using the soap hanging chute(?) The minibar can be part of the art From the (?) of the minibar brandy and lambs see(?) You have a brandy (?) sweet boozy steam moves freely and is in no manner mindless fun Express yourself in anyway say anything you may and anyway that man (?) That's fuckin' (?) fuckin' cunt the fuckin' damage is a minor... fucker But louts harassin' is fuckin' drole spellin' through the death of rock and roll Rap and roll are separate to some acid trip 'cus rock and roll is fuckin' old The group of girls your so in on have to be on there oh there and piss But you have a problem with the man there with he's a dealer but there's a rift(?) You need to get in front jump up on his own shit take his gear he disappears Leave him there his hand in a bucket of water gaffer taped to a chair in a lift The fine art of hotel expressionism And the sentiment with the kettlent condiments Compose your mood using the soap hanging chute(?) The minibar can be part of the art I'll tell you Expressionism is his own form of art Because with normal art someone usually the artist they pour out their heart But it's worth is decided by committin' and has to obey the law and sharks I tell expressionists walk out the lift mind checkin' out pay for their art Real art should be nothing but love shouldn't be about the money or fashion I make these crap rap rhythms to pay the hotel bills that fund my packet(?) The fine art of hotel expressionism And the sentiment with the kettlent condiments Compose your mood using the soap hanging chute(?) The minibar can be part of the art It's tedious the mischief from (?) is why we hide from enemy pages Throwing the TV out the window mate is nothing clear of weak cliche It's vandalism an expressionists keenly disassociate to I'm talking E-convertibles, structural damage, human injury...well mayhem basically |

Just take back the DVD Withdraw that extra money Tell mum I wouldn't be back for tea Then grab my savings and hurry So first to get the film back in time To avoid that big fine I had to do a fast hill climb But a faster decline But I flew a bit quick Arms like a lunatic Had to stop for a few ticks I started feeling sick Got to the video shop in a state But chuffed it, wouldn't be late Only when he flicked open the case I'd left the disc at my place [Chorus] Today I have achieved absolutely naught In just being out of the house, I've lost out If I wanted to end up with more now I should have just stayed in bed like I know how So I failed on the DVD But I still had to get the money Tell mum I couldn't make tea Get the savings and then hurry Rushin' to the cash machine Still a bit mashed and lean Then of course a mandatory car Drives by and splashes me Get there the queue's outrageous Ladies taking ages My rage is blowing gauges How long's it take to validate your wages? At last my turn comes Press the 50 squid button: Insufficient funds [Chorus] So I failed on the DVD Couldn't withdraw any money But I still had to call mum Get the savings, and then hurry So to call mum so that I could tell her I can't go and that At least I remembered my phone, man I didn't know her number offhand Where's my phone, have I got it? Oh this is a crock of shit! I lost the fucking thing Wait, wait, it's in my pocket But the batteries nearly flat Got to call, quick snap Aww shit, the battery is flat [Chorus] So I've failed on the DVD Couldn't withdraw any money Or call mum about tea I'll have to get the savings and hurry But where was the money? I knew I'd left it on the Side, next to the telly This is not even funny I left it in the living room Ready to pick up as soon As I passed through On the way out to the rendezvous So the shoebox full of money Just disappearing from me That's not what I call funny +A grand don't come for free+ [Chorus] Oy, soaked to the bone in me jeans You want me to stop? I imagine my mum's weeping right now And the thousand pounds you swore That I left on the table this morn Has simply disappeared before my eyes, his eyes, and yours And I'm a thousand pounds poorer Hundred thousand pennies, no more A thousandth of a million squid Or two monkeys Or a whole fifty scores Gone, withdrawn, from my life The money is no more for sure It was supposed to be so easy... |

She said 'Meet me at the gates at eight
'Leave now, don't be late' She said one day she'd walk away 'Cause I was always late Thought things were okay Didn't care though anyway Say 'Sorry, babe, I had to meet a mate' Tempting fate We first met through a shared view She loved me and I did too It's now seven-fifty Getting ready, better be nifty Do my hair quickly Step out, it's cloudy Mate bells me to borrow money I've got two Henrys and a dealer to pay Call up on geezers to rid these green trees From my reeking jeans Got a 'you-think-I-care' air Out glaring geezers' stares I'm here and I'm there Couldn't see past the end of my beer What was getting near All of the silence after the tears [Chorus] I didn't know it was over Till it was too late, too ate But if I ever needed you Would you be there? She said 'Meet me at the gates, don't be late' But pretty soon the day came for change And I was glad she never walked away So I'm choosing what to wear Doing my hair with an hour to spare When my life went pear She'd been there with a fixed stare Big wheel climbed to the top Geezers' stares bounced off Standing at the top of this huge mountain Smiling and shouting Spring flowers sprouting Not one inch of doubt in my mind As I reached the gates Came around the corner at a rate Risked her love But I was gonna set things straight Never again am I gonna be late [x3] [Chorus] I said meet me at the gates Leave now, don't be late I waited for a while Listening to her voice mail Mind set sail Then the facts turned me pale Wind, rain, hail My fears unveiled for my fair female She'd walked away Too little to late I step up the pace Walk past the gate Rain runs over my face Spirit falls from grace I purchase a hazy escape at the alcohol place In the chase, I sat down, got a fat frown Weeping and drown in my senses For this love game's expensive I walk in a trance Got a wounded soldier stance And the everyday geezers' stares throw me off balance Now nothing holds significance And nothing holds relevance 'Cause the only thing I can see is her elegance [Chorus x2] |

Ah, what was the question
Oh yeah, momento mori It means remember it's inevitable that we will all die It sounds quite depressing when said so raw and direct But it means don't hang yourself on a material life But that gets dropped when I'm bop on shopping day Am I shallow, am I hung up on such wrong ways Yes I am shallow and loving every wrong play If love is blind then why do we all buy lingerie I've got nothing in my life away from the studio So when I'm loose I end up consuming dough Memento mori, memento mori It's latin and it says we must all die I tried it for a while but it's a load of boring shit So I buy buy buy buy buy buy If I start to think of life I have prangs of paranoia Pull one stripey shirt off a racks or another Over think my fate grasping a pastel jumper Panic buy a flight home, prang though actually sober Change my mind and fly back into Vegas Buy more pastel shades and some famous labels Frame the Ferrari through the day with the mayhem Just to forget about the race in my head I don't really care about the luck and the look But driving a Ferrari is fucking book Memento mori, memento mori It's latin and it says we must all die I tried it for a while but it's a load of boring shit So I buy buy buy buy buy buy I think if I could see me now from my growing past I'd Hate the shirted cunt that seems to be so fucking flash I reckon from the threads I think all I think's about cash But my manager tells me I ought to think about cash It's like people don't know the eighties started My car just keeps carding with the card machine You don't regard the old you, driving a Ferrari Mine's the driving license through Nevada at speed I never think about money In fact I have no idea how much money I have Memento mori, memento mori It's latin and it says we must all die I tried it for a while but it's a load of boring shit So I buy buy buy buy buy buy Chilly 'n Carmen air sips as I'm parting her hair But I'm an asbo drinker I want to be chilly parkair But asbo drinkers just don't dig my art and my flair Even if they dig my asbo driving, past their carlight flair Sometimes when I my diamond trinkets with my whores I know I've strayed a bit from my old sins and my walks But then I laugh out loud that my car still fucking talks I feel awful for a bit but at least I'm not poor |

Two great European narcotics,
Alcohol and Christianity, I know which one I prefer [Chorus:] We never went to church, Just get on with work and sometimes things'll hurt, But it's hit me since you left us, And it's so hard not to search. If you were still about, I'd ask you what I'm supposed to do now, I just get grubbin' scared, Every now, Hope I made you proud. On your birthday when mom passed the forks and spoons, I put my head on the table I was so distraught with you, You tidied your things into the bin, The more poorly you grew, So there's nothing of yours to hold or to talk to. Put your hand up and interrupt the conversation with a, but.. People say I interrupt people with the same look. Sometimes I think so hard I can't remember how your face looked, Started reading about dreams in your favorite book. Panic and pace when I can't see the right thing to do. You'd be scratching your head through the best advice you knew. And I feel sad I can't hear you reciting it through, I miss you dad but I've got nothing to remind me of you [Chorus] I needed a break when your book about dreams was taken, I needed to pray or see a priest that day, I needed to leave this trade and just heave it away. But I cleaned up my place like you so I could see things straight. I never cared about God when life was sailin' in the calm, So I said I'd get my head down and I'd deal with the ache in my heart, And for that if God exists I'd reckon he'd pay me regard, Mom says me and you are the same from the start. I guess than you did leave me something to remind me of you, Every time I interrupt someone like you used to, When I do something like you you'll be on my mind or through, 'Cause I forgot you left me behind to remind me of you. [Chorus: Repeat 2X] But you you still tell me how you didn't know what to do even now, And then I'm not so scared somehow, 'Cause I know that you'd be proud. I got a good one for you dad, I'm gonna see a priest, a Rabbi and a Protestant clergyman, You always said I should hedge my bets. |

He'll tick the box on the slip, and then just watch and learn He's not addicted, he can stop anytime But this is gonna pay, he feels it this one'll be fine This time I know I'm gonna smash the bet I foresee it smacked in the back of the net Men grip slips, wipe their hands that sweat The camera pans the away fans end Twenty quid for blues to thrash the reds Then cash that cash, when the ref has said My mates out, his pads a mess Its getting late, I've not dashed yet The question I have to ask myself Is can I see us not battering them? If I cant see that, happening then I'm gonna put all my money down on one fat bet Now I don't know the first thing about football But my instincts tell me this is my windfall It's his lucky day, that's a given He'll tick the box on the slip, and then just watch and learn He's not addicted, he can stop anytime But this is gonna pay, he feels it this one'll be fine This time I know I woulda cashed the lot I woulda held in my hand the whole jackpot The games won, the ends have a swap 2-0 up they're getting mashed up But I wont win now, the chance flopped Cause I couldn't make it to the damn shop Might as well put tea in that pot Ive got nowhere else I have to bop The question I have to ask one Is how I managed, not to manage the trot Maybe I could phone in and slap it on Put all my money on a mid-match one Yes, I don't know the first thing about football But my instincts tell me this is my windfall It's his lucky day, that's a given He'll tick the box on the slip, and then just watch and learn He's not addicted, he can stop anytime But this is gonna pay, he feels it this one'll be fine Shit, I'm mad glad I didn't back that match Suppose to be an unproblematic catch Full time the whistle blasted after The last passer, passed the last pass Would you believe how we fell back Three goals lost in the last half So glad I was stranded back at the flat Wincing at every goal we let em have The question I now have to ask Is how the fuck did we get smashed that bad? I just very, very nearly, nearly Lost every penny of all my cash Yes, I don't know the first thing about football And my instincts almost led me to a pitfall It's his lucky day, that was barmy He didn't tick the box on the slip, and what a relief He's not addicted, he can stop anytime But next time he will be more lucky, next time he'll be fined [x2] I need to rethink the technique of my betting shit Maybe change the parameters a little bit Instead of betting on to win the football I'll bet to lose the cricket |

Around the time I was skethchin' tryin' to con some sleep And the new day on me was nearly dawning in here I must have flaked while I puttied Way to loads more 'Cuz I'd staked on bookings Waited to tell the score Why do I break my rules not to wager any more I flaked on the bookings and majorly totaled on the score I've got a simple problem But my minds spinning out I remembered the website between the wine and the stout The rush of fear made me forget how fucked I'd been This time I'm drying my eyes and a fuckin' nose bleed Turnin' the phone off when my promo bloke phones me Evaded for it got nasty when my manager when he only beat me I threw his wallet out the window as it had grown heated He said 'sort your life out' as he punched me onto my feet You're prangin' out I see through you These voices talkin' to me This ain't funny I see through you I'm about to do something stupid You're prangin' out I see through you These voices talkin' to me This ain't funny I see through you I'm about to do something stupid Right now logic states I need to be not contemplating suicide 'Cause rational thought it would seem that I need not to be doing stuff That makes death seem like an easier option I need a totally Trojan plan right now I see through you |

Cos this world swallows souls
And when the blues unfold It gets cold silence burns holes You're going mad Perhaps you always were But when things was good you just didn't care This is called irony When you most need to get up you got no energy Time and time shit'll happen The dark shit's unwrapping But no-one's listening your mates are laughing Your brethren's fucking and then you start hating Your stomach starts churning and you mind starts turning. So smoke another draw It won't matter no more but the next day still feels sore Rain taps on your window Always did tho but you didn't hear it when things were so-so You're on your own now Your little zone you were born alone and believe me you'll die alone Weed becomes a chore You want the buzz back so you follow the others onto smack Just trying to stay positive Just trying to stay positive Just trying to stay positive Just trying to stay positive Feels nice and still Good thing about brown is it always will It's easy, no-one blames you It's that world out there that's fucked you You know less of a person and if God exists He still loves you Just remember that - the more you sink the further back from that brink Maybe you've lifetime scars and you think tattoos might be more fitting But who's picking? Searching for yourself you find demons Try and be a freeman and grasp that talisman Cos your the same as I am We all need our fellow man We all need our samaritan. Maybe I'm better looking than you tho Maybe I've got more dough - but am I happier... no. Get the love of a good girl and your world will be much richer than my world And your happyness will uncurl Just trying to stay positive Just trying to stay positive Just trying to stay positive Just trying to stay positive Stop dreaming People who say that are blaspheming They're doing nine to five and moaning And they don't want you succeeding when theyve blown it And you idols - who are they? They too dreamt about their day Positive steps will see your goals. Whether it's dollars or control, feel the gold. I aint helping you climb the ladder I'm busy climbing mine. That's how it's been since the dawn of time If you reach a cul-de-sac The world turns it's back This is you zone, it's like blackjack He might get the ace or the top one So organise your two's and three's into a run then you'll have fucked him son And for that you'll be the better one One last thing before you go though When you feel better tommorow you'll be a hero But never forget today. you could be back here Things can stray What if you see me in that window? You won't help me I know. That's cool, just keep walking where you go. Carry on through the estate, stare at the geezers so they know you aint lightweight And go see your mates And when they don't look happy Play them this tape Just trying to stay positive Just trying to stay positive Just trying to stay positive Just trying to stay positive I hope you understand me Just trying to stay positive I aint no preaching fucker and I aint no do-goody-goody either This is about when shit goes pear-shaped And if you aren't or ever have been at rock bottom then good luck to you in the big wide world But remember that one day shit might just start crumbling Your bird might fuck off or you might loose your job It's when that happens that what I'm talking about will feel much more important to you So if you aint feeling it, just be thankfull that everythings cool in your world Respect to BC Positivity Positivity Just trying to stay positive Just trying to stay positive Just trying to stay positive Just trying to stay positive |

Cos this world swallows souls
And when the blues unfold It gets cold silence burns holes You're going mad Perhaps you always were But when things was good you just didn't care This is called irony When you most need to get up you got no energy Time and time shit'll happen The dark shit's unwrapping But no-one's listening your mates are laughing Your brethren's fucking and then you start hating Your stomach starts churning and you mind starts turning. So smoke another draw It won't matter no more but the next day still feels sore Rain taps on your window Always did tho but you didn't hear it when things were so-so You're on your own now Your little zone you were born alone and believe me you'll die alone Weed becomes a chore You want the buzz back so you follow the others onto smack Just trying to stay positive Just trying to stay positive Just trying to stay positive Just trying to stay positive Feels nice and still Good thing about brown is it always will It's easy, no-one blames you It's that world out there that's fucked you You know less of a person and if God exists He still loves you Just remember that - the more you sink the further back from that brink Maybe you've lifetime scars and you think tattoos might be more fitting But who's picking? Searching for yourself you find demons Try and be a freeman and grasp that talisman Cos your the same as I am We all need our fellow man We all need our samaritan. Maybe I'm better looking than you tho Maybe I've got more dough - but am I happier... no. Get the love of a good girl and your world will be much richer than my world And your happyness will uncurl Just trying to stay positive Just trying to stay positive Just trying to stay positive Just trying to stay positive Stop dreaming People who say that are blaspheming They're doing nine to five and moaning And they don't want you succeeding when theyve blown it And you idols - who are they?

Yeah safe man, you ok?
Just calling to ensure you got back in Hope you coped yesterday, cos I felt well damn grim But yeah in the air on the plane my stomach was turning Man I was hanging head-to-sted on the headrest in pain Prayed away all my bad sins Lost count of the plain chardonnays before the fourth or maybe the fifth In future I need to abstain If only id had a bit of discipline But worth every bit of spare change Pure clowning down to the last drink (Hang on let me slam the door mate; just pause that thought for a bit) Why did I have to go and do a stupid thing like that Coz yeah it felt like we were through though But I could've ruined it, I'm such a twat I've been pacing the place well paralysed since I got back in with my bags though Yeah I'm too aware that last night was way mad slack I know Carried in a gang I lost sight of Simone On her own back at home Distracted from the fact it weren't right could have raised up the hand but no Simone was moaning and that about me playing away on this holiday She was watching the box at her dad's house there, preparing spliffs away As I'm smacking glasses down at George Bests best session rate (Can you hear me? Na sorry mate your fuzzy mate I can't hear ya) Why did I have to go and do a stupid thing like that Coz yeah it felt like we were through though But I could've ruined it, I'm such a twat (I lost you for a minute yeah yeah I can hear you now) See I mean that the true thing though I suppose I chose myself to allow I was weak and stupid but as far as I viewed anyhow She couldn't have been it for me, the only girl id ever go out with I didn't want to waste my youth in a girl's house to the sound of spliffs And when she got in a mood with me in that text about that thing I just switched off the phone when she started shouting Coming to a conclusion I couldn't be bothered with anymore rowing Why did I have to go and do a stupid thing like that Coz yeah it felt like we were through though But I could've ruined it, I'm such a twat (Nah nah nah) And then after shots made me lose the plot It all got a bit bizarre And that incident with the ice cream I forgot, it all ended in our vodka What I can remembers a blotch I got a fat bruise on my arm She weren't even much too hot but she totally mugged me up like rah She knew exactly what she was doing and it all went a bit too far She was with that bloke in the white top in McDonalds car park And then she let me chat her up later on in that lovely little bar (Hello? Ahh fucking phones man) Why did I have to go and do a stupid thing like that Coz yeah it felt like we were through though But I could've ruined it, I'm such a twat (Yeah I think we got cut off, yeah I got crap reception in my house. I have to stand in a certain spot in my kitchen or it cuts out) Yeah you know I was potty to even let myself allow it I would if I could just swap what happened then for right now And if she ever found out how far it got it would be more than just a row This whole thing just got on top but its her that I want, no doubt So in a way its helped me doing wrong I know I've fucked up now This is where that dodgy shit stops She's just gotta not find out Why did I have to go and do a stupid thing like that Coz yeah it felt like we were through though But I could've ruined it, I'm such a twat Why did I have to go and do a stupid thing like that Coz yeah it felt like we were through though But I could've ruined it, I'm such a twat |

from The Streets - The Hardest Way To Make An Easy Living (2006)
I need something in my life to straighten me out
Let's rent this shed, we'll do vocals in the bog Call toast PR tell 'em we've opened up shop Campaign meetings at Warner, no coke and not drunk, Three years to make this work, or look a joke and be broke Blag their lawyers like the con with a dog, And there'll be no more straight scores to drop and keep dropping Settle my gross addictions with my net and come, tell my mum over tea that my whole life's fucking up We've got two hundred and fifty grand in the budget to go, subtract five for club promo. Lose five for a good video and fifteen for a dud video - fuck that It's the hardest way to make an easy living The party stage is a bit nearer to delivery Mayhem texts me about the press and TV See if I've taken any Es, So I can get some sleep, Nap on the settee, the laptop next to me Wince for my family at the skinner scandal of the week TV pluggers, product managers straight up Club promo needs to step up, help it work Stick to our guns, don't crack to demands Tell my mum in the car, that the car might have to go back Two hundred and twenty five grand, twenty six grand for a showcase and, five more on tour support and support story Chorus We'll never get bankrupt if we never have a go This is no ordinary label, I need to flash up my flow Go into Morris Stead as well as Saville Row I want a pin-stripe suit that no man owns Cash in the Kano beat for the silver shadow Send it to warrior for the flash and the glow The safest way to double your money is to fold it in your pocket Tell my mum during breakfast that I got no sleep Eight grand payed in September, April, may and December If this keeps going so well, this is going to be the end of us Chorus In spread betting it's easy to draw a small fortune start with a big fortune and lose into a small fortune Haven't got a clue, we blindly charge on Death threats from a boy of the girl I sarged on She said she didn't have a bloke, another lesson marked down Verbal agreements aren't worth the paper they're marked on Get scans of reviews, we beg to chart up Tell mum over tea, the press have started up We've spent a fortune, 'cause with ghost buying it's the end for tune We need to sell some records soon ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By SKINNER, MICHAEL GEOFFREY <i>Lyrics © Warner/Chappell Music, Inc.</i> |

Hello, Hello. My names Terry and I'm a law abider
There's nothing I like more than getting fired up on beer And when the weekends here I to exercise my right to get paralytic and fight Good bloke fairly But I get well leery when geezers look at me funny Bounce 'em round like bunnies I'm likely to cause mischief Good clean grief you must believe and I ain't no thief. Law abiding and all, all legal. And who cares about my liver when it feels good Wwhat you need is some real manhood. Rasher Rasher Barney and Kasha putting peoples backs up. Public disorder, I'll give you public disorder. I down eight pints and run all over the place Spit in the face of an officer See if that bothers you cause I never broke a law in my life Someday I'm gonna settle down with a wife Come on lads lets have another fight Eh hello. My names Tim and I'm a criminal, In the eyes of society I need to be in jail For the choice of herbs I inhale. This ain't no wholesale operation Just a few eighths and some Playstations my's vocation I pose a threat to the nation And down the station the police hold no patients Let's talk space and time I like to get deep sometimes and think about Einstein And Carl Young And old Kung Fu movies I like to see Pass the hydrator please Yeah I'm floating on thin air. Going to Amsterdam in the New Year - top gear there Cause I taker pride in my hobby Home made bongs using my engineering degree Dear Leaders, please legalise weed for these reasons. Like I was saying to him. I told him: "Top with me and you won't leave." So I smacked him in the head and downed another Carling Bada Bada Bing for the lad's night. Mad fight, his face's a sad sight. Vodka and Snake Bite. Going on like a right geez, he's a twat, Shouldn't have looked at me like that. Anyway I'm an upstanding citizen If a war came along I'd be on the front line with em. Can't stand crime either them hooligans on heroin. Drugs and criminals those thugs on the penny coloured will be the downfall of society I've got all the anger pent up inside of me. You know I don't see why I should be the criminal How can something with no recorded fatalities be illegal And how many deaths are there per year from alcohol I just completed Gran Tourismo on the hardest setting We pose no threat on my settee Ooh the pizza's here will someone let him in please "We didn't order chicken, Not a problem we'll pick it out I doubt they meant to mess us about After all we're all adults not louts." As I was saying, we're friendly peaceful people We're not the ones out there causing trouble. We just sit in this hazy bubble with our quarters Discussing how beautiful Gail Porter is. MTV, BBC 2, Channel 4 is on until six in the morning. Then at six in the morning the sun dawns and it's my bedtime. Causing trouble, your stinking rabble Boys saying I'm the lad who's spoiling it You're on drugs it really bugs me when people try and tell me I'm a thug Just for getting drunk I like getting drunk Cause I'm an upstanding citizen If a war came along I'd be on the front line with em. Now Terry you're repeating yourself But that's okay drunk people can't help that. A chemical reaction inside your brain causes you to forget what you're saying. What. I know exactly what I'm saying I'm perfectly sane You stinking student lameo Go get a job and stop robbing us of our taxes. Err, well actually according to research Government funding for further education pales in insignificance When compared to how much they spend on repairing Leery drunk people at the weekend In casualty wards all over the land. Why you cheeky little swine come here I'm gonna batter you. Come here. |
