Memento Mori - The Streets[00:00:00]
Ah what was the question[00:00:05]
Oh yeah momento mori[00:00:07]
It means remember it's inevitable that we will all die[00:00:08]
It sounds quite depressing when said so raw and direct[00:00:12]
But it means don't hang yourself on a material life[00:00:14]
But that gets dropped when I'm bop on shopping day[00:00:18]
Am I shallow am I hung up on such wrong ways[00:00:21]
Yes I am shallow and loving every wrong play[00:00:24]
If love is blind then why do we all buy lingerie[00:00:26]
I've got nothing in my life away from the studio[00:00:29]
So when I'm loose I end up consuming dough[00:00:33]
Memento mori memento mori[00:00:35]
It's latin and it says we must all die[00:00:38]
I tried it for a while but[00:00:41]
It's a load of boring sh*t[00:00:42]
So I buy buy buy buy buy buy[00:00:44]
If I start to think of life I have prangs of paranoia[00:00:47]
Pull one stripey shirt off a racks or another[00:00:50]
Overthink my fate grasping a pastel jumper[00:00:53]
Panic buy a flight home prang though actually sober[00:00:56]
Change my mind and fly back into vegas[00:00:59]
Buy more pastel shades and some famous labels[00:01:02]
Frame the ferrari through the day with the mayhem[00:01:05]
Just to forget about the race in my head[00:01:08]
I don't really care about the luck and the look[00:01:11]
But driving a ferrarri is f**king book[00:01:14]
Memento mori memento mori[00:01:17]
It's latin and it says we must all die[00:01:20]
I tried it for a while but[00:01:22]
It's a load of boring sh*t[00:01:24]
So I buy buy buy buy buy buy[00:01:25]
I think if I could see me now from my growing past[00:01:29]
I'd hate the shirted cunt that seems to be so f**king flash[00:01:32]
I reckon from the threadsI think all I think's about cash[00:01:35]
But my manager tells me I ought to think about cash[00:01:38]
It's like people don't know the eighties started[00:01:41]
My car just keeps carding with the card machine[00:01:44]
You don't regard the old you driving a ferrarri[00:01:47]
Mine's the driving license through nevada at speed[00:01:50]
I never think about money[00:01:52]
In fact I have no idea how much money I have[00:01:55]
Memento mori memento mori[00:01:58]
It's latin and it says we must all die[00:02:01]
I tried it for a while[00:02:04]
It's a load of boring sh*t[00:02:05]
So I buy buy buy buy buy buy[00:02:07]
Chilly 'n carmen air sips as I'm parting her hair[00:02:10]
But I'm an asbo drinker I want to be chilly parkair[00:02:13]
But asbo drinkers just don't dig my art and my flair[00:02:16]
Even if they dig my asbo driving past their carlight flair[00:02:19]
Sometimes when I my diamond[00:02:22]
Trinkets with my whores[00:02:24]
I know I've strayed a bit[00:02:25]
From my old sins and my walks[00:02:26]
But then I laugh out loud that my car still f**king talks[00:02:28]
I feel awful for a bit but at least I'm not poor[00:02:31]
