I wake up[00:00:11]
Stare at the ceiling[00:00:12]
I'm alive[00:00:15]
But i don't know about that feeling[00:00:15]
My mind goes back to something that I felt when I was dreaming[00:00:16]
I kind of feel the way I used to feel when I was thieving[00:00:19]
Just like when I was dealing - hands clasped and kneeling[00:00:22]
Some creeping gnawing sickness in my belly leaves me reeling[00:00:25]
I feel the layers peeling[00:00:27]
I'm searching for a meaning[00:00:29]
I know I'm on a journey so i don't stop believing[00:00:30]
I get up[00:00:33]
It's bloody freezing and I'm shivering[00:00:34]
I look out side and down the street a postman is delivering[00:00:36]
Bad news from bad folks to witless human wreckage[00:00:39]
There's knocking at my door and I don't want to get the message[00:00:42]
So I switch on the stereo, Radio 4[00:00:45]
Some dick some where trying to start a war[00:00:47]
Terry Wogan wants a little money for the poor[00:00:50]
The weatherman says it wont be sunny anymore[00:00:53]
I might not be here in the morning baby[00:00:56]
Dropped off far away[00:01:00]
In the middle where the light's all gone, and the cops won't come[00:01:02]
Can't keep holding on[00:01:06]
I might not be here in the morning baby[00:01:07]
Dropped off far away[00:01:11]
In the middle where the light's all gone, and the cops won't come[00:01:13]
Cant keep holding on[00:01:17]
Sorry baby[00:01:53]
We aint spoken in a minute[00:01:53]
I know that we're at war and that I promised you we'd win it[00:01:55]
From the fire to the skillet[00:01:57]
But I'm not in denial[00:01:59]
I had to look away for a little while[00:02:00]
I know it my heart[00:02:03]
I can taste it my bile[00:02:04]
I feel it my gullet like when crocodiles smile[00:02:05]
They all grinning, and they aint winning[00:02:08]
They won[00:02:10]
It's obvious[00:02:11]
While you're all online hanging out for the apocalypse[00:02:11]
Apocalypse, apocalypse, now, now[00:02:14]
There won't no Superman be saving your Metropolis[00:02:16]
Wow, scared[00:02:19]
It's that time already[00:02:20]
The fat lady done sung like Freddie[00:02:22]
Eddie Vedder better f**k off[00:02:24]
This aint the time to whine[00:02:26]
Ah come on baby, hit me one more time[00:02:27]
Till my spine turns to slime[00:02:29]
And my mind just dissipates[00:02:31]
And all that's left is my breath to obliterate[00:02:32]
It was written in alley[00:02:35]
It was written on the roads[00:02:36]
It was on the television[00:02:38]
So that everybody knows[00:02:39]
They know[00:02:40]
They know[00:02:43]
And there aint no use in running[00:02:45]
There aint anywhere to go[00:02:47]
And there aint no point in tellin em[00:02:48]
Cos everybody knows[00:02:50]
They know[00:02:51]
They know[00:02:53]
Darkseid turned up, old Gods came back[00:02:57]
Lights off, there's no music in your Maybach[00:02:59]
Now you're feeling like a chump[00:03:02]
When your filling at the pump[00:03:03]
But we've been killing for an inning now[00:03:04]
Were giving we the bumps[00:03:06]
Happy birthday bebbeh![00:03:07]
Hip hip hurray![00:03:08]
I hope you have a nice day[00:03:10]
Now it's all turned to dust, I will kill you if I must[00:03:11]
I will help you if I can man trust[00:03:15]
But[00:03:17]
We're getting sicker by the second[00:03:18]
Clock is ticking and I reckon[00:03:19]
What we've written's gonna wreck em[00:03:20]
Cos its time to transcend[00:03:21]
Or pretend to ascend from this burial[00:03:23]
Like Ariel[00:03:25]
Like, here we here we here we go![00:03:26]
Death by stereo[00:03:27]
It was written in alley[00:03:28]
It was written on the roads[00:03:30]
It was on the television[00:03:31]
So that everybody knows[00:03:32]
They know[00:03:34]
They know[00:03:36]
And there aint no use in running[00:03:39]
There aint anywhere to go[00:03:40]
And there aint no point in tellin em[00:03:41]
Cos everybody knows[00:03:43]
They know[00:03:44]
They know[00:03:47]
[00:03:50]
Once upon a time, not too long ago[00:04:18]
There was a boy, Donovan[00:04:19]
Who decided to go[00:04:20]
To the park in Soho for to smoke a fat spliff[00:04:21]
The spliff was a gift from his old man[00:04:23]
"No sh*t!"[00:04:24]
Yeah sh*t mate, cos we're grown up nowza[00:04:24]
Donny had the hash wrapped, stuffed down his trousers[00:04:26]
Sat down on a bench, pulled the stuff out[00:04:27]
"Isn't that illegal?"[00:04:29]
I hear you shout[00:04:30]
Well, yes, yes it is[00:04:31]
Yes it is kinda[00:04:32]
But he heard that it had got decriminalized by the[00:04:33]
London cops who had enough to do[00:04:34]
What with all the murderers and terrorists too[00:04:35]
"Sweet", thought he, sat upon the bench[00:04:37]
Opened up the package and he marvelled at the stench[00:04:39]
Pulled out his papers and he made himself a roach[00:04:41]
That's when his mate saw boys in blue approach[00:04:42]
Donovan said, "hmm. [00:04:44]
I wonder what they want?"[00:04:46]
Two cops suddenly right up in his face[00:04:50]
Yet again the don thought "opposite of ace!"[00:04:52]
Dudes looked pissed off, young and amazed[00:04:54]
That he thought that he could smoke a joint up in this place[00:04:55]
So they searched him, checked him, cuffed him[00:04:57]
Found him on they database, booked him, tooked him[00:04:59]
Back up to the pig pen, but along the way[00:05:00]
Ran into another bunch of piggies who say:[00:05:02]
"What you doing with this lad then?" heed:[00:05:04]
They say: "had a bit of w**d"[00:05:05]
"Had a bit of w**d?[00:05:07]
And you aint letting him go?"[00:05:07]
The two young coppers say, "no".[00:05:09]
"That blows!" thinks he, "just my luck![00:05:10]
Two pigs in the whole town that give a f**k."[00:05:12]
But he's stuck, they stick him in a van[00:05:13]
Drive him to the station and they march him right in[00:05:15]
Donovan said "[00:05:17]
I don't wanna go to jail"[00:05:20]
Donny went to court and looked a right state in his filthy trousers[00:05:23]
He got bail under condition that he went stay at his mam's house[00:05:30]
And observe a curfew to be home by ten on every evening[00:05:37]
They would check in randomly so there could not be no deceiving[00:05:43]
Safe, Donny was temporarily free[00:05:50]
Met his boys outside the court, went on a spree[00:05:51]
Then upon a three hour journey to his mummy's[00:05:53]
Very very soon this ceased to be funny[00:05:55]
Plus there was another urgent issue to be sorted[00:05:56]
If he went back to America, then he would be deported[00:05:58]
They don't like druggies[00:06:00]
(Unless they elect them)[00:06:01]
Anyway, drop the conviction, that was the order of the day[00:06:02]
In order to avoid a verdict he would have to pay[00:06:04]
An inordinate amount of money to a lawyer who[00:06:06]
Would write the courts a letter that would get them not to do[00:06:08]
Anything to the boy[00:06:09]
SQUASH THAT CASE[00:06:10]
Which they did which was ace[00:06:11]
So what did we learn?[00:06:12]
If you can't afford lawyers[00:06:13]
Don't smoke drugs in public squares.[00:06:14]
Donovan said, "I won't do that again."[00:06:16]
[00:06:24]
Hello, it's That Zilla[00:06:34]
I'm concerned with a stone cold killer[00:06:36]
It been seen making old folks thicker[00:06:38]
It been seen telling kids, "drink liquor"[00:06:40]
When I was a little boy it made a lot of folks bicker[00:06:41]
Mind much sicker[00:06:43]
Increase ticker[00:06:44]
Sold them liver down the river[00:06:45]
Came with a pain giver[00:06:46]
Cry me a river[00:06:47]
Who told you, "don't leave your cake on the sill?"[00:06:48]
Who told the serial killer to kill?[00:06:50]
Who killed Bill?[00:06:52]
Who told tales?[00:06:53]
Who put wind in the ferryman's sails?[00:06:53]
Who put food in the fat man's gut?[00:06:55]
Who turned your daughter into a slut?[00:06:57]
Nama-nama-nama-na, I should war you[00:06:58]
It's that black box sitting in the corner[00:07:00]
I don't own a TV[00:07:03]
Be like me its fun and easy[00:07:04]
You wont leave your lover needy[00:07:05]
Try it if you don't believe me[00:07:07]
As if you really really need someone[00:07:09]
To tell you what to tell somebody else[00:07:11]
Save your self[00:07:13]
Get that book down off the shelf[00:07:14]
She's like, "funny that you mention it[00:07:16]
My bloke don't show a girl much attention[00:07:18]
It's rare that we do it these days[00:07:19]
Spend most nights in a daze[00:07:21]
Bathed in cathode rays"[00:07:22]
I'm like, "girl that's poetry[00:07:23]
Try a night without the telly[00:07:25]
See how quick you go at it[00:07:26]
Try a week without the thing and see how sick your poet is[00:07:26]
I bet you feel a whole lot better when you're rid of it!"[00:07:28]
I did not see the six o clock news![00:07:30]
Or that advert about those shoes![00:07:31]
If I wanna watch football I'll go to the pub[00:07:33]
If I wanna see a strip show I'll go to the club[00:07:35]
If I wanna be lied to my face by an obnoxious fat old white dude[00:07:37]
I'll go to f**king church![00:07:40]
You dig?[00:07:42]
I don't own a television. [00:07:45]
Try it if you don't believe me[00:07:49]
I don't own a TV[00:07:52]
I don't own a TV[00:07:57]
Be like me its fun and easy[00:07:59]
You wont leave your lover needy[00:08:01]
Try it if you don't believe me[00:08:02]
As if you really really need someone[00:08:04]
To tell you what to tell somebody else[00:08:06]
Save your self[00:08:09]
Get that book down off the shelf[00:08:09]
He got it from his ma[00:08:22]
I said, "you owe her it"[00:08:25]
He said, "I bought the bar"[00:08:26]
I said, "you lowered it"[00:08:27]
He didn't disagree[00:08:28]
He just said "you should grow a bit"[00:08:29]
And got another bottle[00:08:31]
Left the jar with dough in it[00:08:32]
"Cheers," said the barmaid[00:08:33]
Sat on the barstool[00:08:34]
Lit up a cigarette[00:08:35]
He made a pass too[00:08:37]
Sang with the jukebox[00:08:38]
Looked, like, "wow.[00:08:39]
"I know how I feel about you now"[00:08:40]
Jesus was a lovely boy[00:08:43]
But I aint seen him lately[00:08:46]
Jesus was a lovely boy[00:08:48]
But I aint seen him lately[00:08:50]
Tell me have you ever been[00:08:52]
To where the men have never seen[00:08:54]
The mellow or the melanin[00:08:55]
The white bright light thing![00:08:56]
Jesus was a lovely boy[00:08:57]
But I aint seen him lately[00:09:00]
Tap was dripping, I said "I don't like what's in the water,[00:09:02]
Them two pound chickens got me tripping, I should cross the border[00:09:05]
I don't talk to Sun reporters"[00:09:07]
She says, "maybe Don you oughta[00:09:08]
Or number one you ought get your flipping house in order."[00:09:10]
I'm like, "psyche!"[00:09:12]
Get on my bike[00:09:13]
Bobble cross the cobbles[00:09:14]
Then I - swoosh - through the red lights[00:09:16]
Lit up by headlights, wrong way on the motorway[00:09:17]
I like the way pollution 'luminates the MIA[00:09:19]
I am not cute![00:09:22]
They cased me in bars[00:09:23]
I'm short arsed and bloodied and covered in scars[00:09:24]
Ah, I guess I'm doing alright[00:09:27]
And though I might not fight[00:09:29]
But I'll probably bite[00:09:30]
Aight? [00:09:31]
Jesus was a lovely boy[00:09:32]
But I aint seen him lately[00:09:34]
Jesus was a lovely boy[00:09:36]
But I aint seen him lately[00:09:39]
Tell me have you ever been[00:09:41]
To where the men have never seen[00:09:42]
The mellow or the melanin[00:09:44]
The white bright light thing![00:09:45]
Jesus was a lovely boy[00:09:46]
But I aint seen him lately[00:09:49]
This is Adam N, f**k who I'm badder than[00:10:36]
F-freaked-out and I'm m-m mad again[00:10:37]
Can't breathe shouldn't tightened that belt[00:10:39]
But my bed's made and I play what I'm dealt[00:10:41]
So I smile at the minds on the street[00:10:43]
And I'm watched the whole while by The Swine[00:10:45]
I'm complete[00:10:46]
Now the world is a stage and I'm acting[00:10:47]
Look at all the viewers I'm attracting[00:10:48]
Stall seats packed in[00:10:50]
As the light burns low and the sea dries up[00:10:51]
Where the phones don't ring and the bones pile up[00:10:52]
And the clown sings, "it's a popularity contest[00:10:54]
You just gotta put it in context"[00:10:57]
It's not like history needs repeating[00:10:58]
I'm so blind I can't see what I'm eating[00:11:00]
Dead in the middle of this epiphany[00:11:02]
Riddle me this, bro[00:11:04]
Are we in trouble here or did we miss go?[00:11:05]
Don't forget to pass go, and collect all your dough[00:11:06]
Cos the whole world's chasing the same pot of gold[00:11:08]
We just take different roads in our pursuit for happiness[00:11:10]
Some drink alcohol, some smoke cannabis[00:11:12]
But you've got to have a plan in this[00:11:14]
Cos you could be deaf or blind[00:11:16]
And still not talentless[00:11:17]
I'm about my dough I roll with them savages[00:11:18]
Better let go of that Sword of Damocles[00:11:20]
Think sh*t's not irrelevant?[00:11:22]
Stop being arrogant[00:11:23]
Fam, I'm in my element[00:11:24]
I'm way too intelligent[00:11:25]
The brain of an elephant, I don't forget sh*t[00:11:26]
Now a black president's talking 'bout bring change quick[00:11:28]
Man[00:11:30]
I've been in and out of sh*t from the beginning[00:11:30]
Like man's living out a script[00:11:32]
Now the economy's falling[00:11:34]
Got people losing their homes now[00:11:34]
I'm equipped with the knowledge and know how[00:11:35]
To Show how[00:11:37]
Who's go the most money[00:11:38]
Who's go the most money[00:11:40]
Who's go the most money[00:11:42]
Has got the authority[00:11:44]
Who's go the most money[00:11:46]
Has got the authority[00:11:51]
Who's go the most money[00:11:53]
Has got the authority[00:11:59]
Who's go the most money[00:12:01]
Has got the authority[00:12:07]
[00:12:10]
Switch on the PC got an email from this lady who[00:12:25]
Said she lost her baby she went crazy[00:12:28]
She was ready to kill herself, serious[00:12:30]
Go end the whole thing[00:12:32]
Until she heard oh what a glorious thing[00:12:33]
My mother wrote me said she loves her first son[00:12:36]
I got a letter from my dad he says he loves my new song[00:12:39]
My girl rings - she wants me meet[00:12:41]
I grab my coat and step out[00:12:43]
I look up, the clouds part and the sun comes out[00:12:44]
So I'll still be here in the morning baby[00:12:47]
Close or far away[00:12:51]
In the middle where the light comes from[00:12:53]
If the cops wont come[00:12:55]
I'll keep holding on[00:12:57]
I swear I'll be here in the morning baby[00:12:59]
Close or far away[00:13:03]
In the middle where the light comes from[00:13:04]
If the cops wont come[00:13:07]
I'll keep holding on[00:13:08]
And on[00:13:11]
And on[00:13:12]
I'll keep holding on[00:13:14]
And on[00:13:16]
And on[00:13:18]
I'll keep holding on[00:13:20]
And on[00:13:22]
And on[00:13:24]
I'll keep holding on[00:13:25]
And on[00:13:28]
And on[00:13:29]
[00:13:32]
