Oi Oi Oi Sometimes I look down; sometimes I look up Sometimes I look down; sometimes I look up Oi thats it
Oi Oi I m a fake I don t live the streets
But there s only so many hours in a day and I use 'em to make beats oi In the studio Emerging Rehearsing My technique I live loops Sleep snares And breathe beats Then sit through Keep the best there And only leave to eat Shut the door Penne nary record the vocal just once more And now you know why these walls are the only walls i ever saw Call me the quick "??", my ??
oi Kind of like a street score Though, not the genuine article More facts packed in a soundtrack to the anthem In a film and I m the lead Believe me in a tragedy scene a tear ran down my cheeks So que the fairytale finale Listen to the dialogue But not too deep Soak up the feeling But don't quote me please
Incidentally Don t worry about continuity The person we hired to do that has been relieved of their duties Also, in the first scene my jeans are green But then they change mysteriously to cream Again bad continuity But I still mean what I mean I wear Nike a lot My hoodie's a tight Schott But does my life sound as interesting as a fight in a chip shop? I think not
The hype's not to be believed I am not the archetypal street geez but i am right on being a beat-junkie Oi
I gave up the fight for an easy life a long time ago When the last bird dumped me Buy me, get one studio free I use words for effect to illustrate passion Themes ring fact and specifics are usually fiction Oi oi I probably couldn't tell you half of what "Has it come to this" means, I was simply setting a scene Of concrete Not sky and green trees
I still hold the same hundred feet high dreams But a lot of things scare me, though I think I read somewhere recently that fear is a useless feeling because I can't run to where I'm heading without running from where I was It's all because
Where I'm from is not the issue This is my imagination I don t sing the blues or feel fever Which by definition aids broken through fever It floats around places I ve never even been to So don't lean toward the door, up for Just as the dance floor gets raw Some of the things this tour makes out I d done been or did Wasn t mean I weren't the one I d only seen it I was always too zoned-out on drum machine shit To worry about the day to day out in the dosh pit
Oi Oi Flip the 12" This is the original mix Called Maybe my sarcastic brick twist daunting will be my downfall Oi Suddenly I m defined by my lyrical So I apologise for being so self-obsessed on this tune Let s get back to the story Soon as The streets; The score; Tell me what you think it is - 'cos I don't know anymore!
