To The Victor The Spoils - Kate Tempest[00:00:00]

In Giuseppe's[00:00:00]

The tablecloths shine with wear[00:00:00]

The chairs are threadbare[00:00:02]

But look happy to be sitting there[00:00:04]

Becky's cashing up[00:00:06]

It's the end of her shift[00:00:06]

Her Uncle Ron's at the counter[00:00:08]

Drinking a Gin Fizz[00:00:10]

It's his place he gave her the work[00:00:11]

He's like a dad to her[00:00:13]

For better or worse[00:00:15]

For now[00:00:16]

He stabs at a lemon rind with a toothpick[00:00:17]

What's the matter[00:00:19]

Ron' Becky says[00:00:20]

Are you sick[00:00:21]

He shakes his head[00:00:22]

Says[00:00:23]

Troubles I got[00:00:24]

And she waits for more[00:00:25]

Focusing on a spot[00:00:26]

On the top of his head[00:00:28]

She ain't noticed before[00:00:29]

But suddenly her Uncle Rags[00:00:30]

Comes strutting through the door[00:00:32]

Becky sees that this means business[00:00:34]

Some things she ain't supposed to know[00:00:37]

Ron smiles at her with thin lips[00:00:39]

Right says Becky time I go[00:00:42]

Blood is thicker than ignorance[00:00:45]

Blood is richer than oil[00:00:47]

But love is what's truly significant[00:00:50]

To the victor the spoils[00:00:53]

To the kids who can toil[00:00:57]

To the kids who can work[00:00:59]

Know that nothing's worth shit[00:01:01]

Till it's difficult[00:01:03]

And nothing don't heal till it hurts[00:01:04]

They call him Rags[00:01:07]

Why[00:01:08]

Cause he leaves bodies in tatters[00:01:08]

Not the type of man to be flattered[00:01:10]

Eyes like patches on a blood stained mattress[00:01:13]

Taps on the window and it shatters[00:01:16]

For now he sits down heavily[00:01:18]

His voice is soft[00:01:20]

Some junior Joey trying to play boss[00:01:21]

Thought he could run a scam[00:01:24]

And now we lost about a key and a half[00:01:26]

Whatever[00:01:28]

A small cost to find a snake in the grass[00:01:28]

And yeah Pico ain't happy[00:01:31]

But you know well the game plays on[00:01:33]

We think the kid's called Harry[00:01:36]

But we might be wrong[00:01:39]

So we're looking for him yeah[00:01:40]

Well we were but it all got hot[00:01:41]

You know Pico's inside[00:01:43]

Too much eyes so we stopped[00:01:45]

Cut your losses[00:01:46]

But the bosses[00:01:47]

Would prefer some bodies[00:01:48]

I'm getting too old for that now[00:01:49]

I get my jollies[00:01:51]

Just sitting down fishing[00:01:52]

Yeah It's good to have a hobby[00:01:53]

Keeps you on your toes[00:01:55]

When your knees are getting wobbly[00:01:56]

So after all that[00:01:58]

Ron breathes out stale air[00:01:59]

There's no f**king panic[00:02:01]

Rags gets up Take care mate[00:02:02]

I got a date with a lady in Mayfair[00:02:04]

Put your knives away[00:02:06]

And let them stay there[00:02:07]

Blood is thicker than ignorance[00:02:09]

Blood is richer than oil[00:02:12]

But love is what's truly significant[00:02:14]

To the victor the spoils[00:02:18]

To the kids who can toil[00:02:20]

To the kids who can work[00:02:23]

Know that nothing's worth shit[00:02:26]

Till it's difficult[00:02:27]

And nothing don't heal till it hurts[00:02:29]

If I found this guy Harry[00:02:31]

Maybe Pico would be pleased[00:02:33]

Call my debts off[00:02:34]

And I could get up off my knees[00:02:35]

Ron looks around at the café that he loves[00:02:37]

Thinks how good it would be[00:02:40]

If he could wash off all the blood[00:02:41]

All that money from them grubby men[00:02:42]

He'd start again[00:02:44]

And spruce it up[00:02:45]

Call it Rebecca's[00:02:45]

In nice clear letters[00:02:47]

He pushes his mop across the floor[00:02:48]

And then he shakes his head as he locks the door[00:02:51]

Best be happy with the way things are[00:02:54]

It's not good to want for more[00:02:57]
