Track Lyrics
Blogging Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Three king researchers, use Google star maps
Bethlehem manger, a high-rated app
Book rooms at the inn, flags first born male traps
Amazon wish-list, delivery elapse
[Chorus]
Blogging like Jesus, tweet like a Pope
Site traffic heavy, I'm YouTubing hope
[Verse 2]
Shepherds are wanted, to mesmerise sheep
Taste-makers prosper, profits are reaped
Market moves fast in, a blink of an eye
The needle is broken, the camel has died
[Chorus]
[Instrumental]
[Bridge]
Voting by proxy, buying online
Selling on eBay, all that is mine
BlackBerry hedge fund, new Apple's divine
Dream time destruction, outback becomes mine
[Chorus] x2
[Outro]
Hope!
Hope!
Hope!
I'm YouTubing hope
Burning Bridges Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The sun was going down
Shadows lengthened on the ground
Snow fell silently and deep
Blanketing the empty streets
In a fragile way, couldn't face another day
In need of love and care, broken, under repair
[Verse 2]
I'm the quicksands of despair
In the desert of unfair
You found me drowning there
Caught my glance of do not care
You took me to your bed, laid your hands upon my head
Said, "Sleep now have no fear, you are safe for I am here."
[Instrumental]
[Verse 3]
We'd talked the night away, into another day
In the morning, you were gone, now every moment seems too long
My thoughts went round and round, impossible to sleep
I started burning bridges, when I gave up counting sheep
[Outro]
An asbestos chimney, can shorten your life
In Manchester Lyrics
[Verse 1]
One of the men that spawned fibre optic prawns
Barely concealed a grand canyonic yawn
Passed a Nationalist getting buried in Manchester
In Manchester
[Verse 2]
Tricolour flying, the sun shining, large crowd around
A freshly dug grave, priest arm blesses, the flag is waving
Stern Indian serves original flavourings, in Manchester
In Manchester
In Manchester
Ah huh
[Instrumental]
[Bridge]
I don't yet know how my story will end
Dead or in prison or completely around the bend
A strong punch was essential, dust heads exploded
[Outro]
In Manchester
In Manchester
In Manchester
In Manchester
Ah huh
[Outro] x2
Sleep-Walking Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We're at a tipping point
The arguments may lead
To less cohesion
A mere collection of parts
[Verse 2]
Sleepwalking to separation
Who'd give the perpetrators
A second chance
If reason could prevail
[Chorus]
The narrowest vision
Often has the widest appeal
A lack of decision
Leaves us open for a steal
Left out, abandoned
We're less than ideal
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Whose rights to shout the loudest?
Should bully tactics triumph
When no one cares
And all stand idly by
[Chorus] x2
[Instrumental]
Joust & Jostle Lyrics
[Intro: Charles Bronson sample from "The Mechanic"]
The classic fighter is here to prove his point
The object of these fights is, total concentration and control
They don't actually hit each other
Otherwise one or the other would be dead...
They have had skills for months...
[Bronze Nazareth]
Yo, I'm so famous, I dump your body over grand canyons
Guzzle the sea, trouble with me, you can't handle
Came from a cave, where we toast with lead
Turn a knob, twist a loaf, now I got more bread
I hope you scramble, 'fore they poach your eggs
Approachable MC's with coke lines on the reg
Bled a heavy served massacre, cancer stick asthma
Growth of the cancer cell, hidden cures in Attica
Vocab, slow jabs, hooks and low punch
Your tracks on the bottom rung, mine is uppercuts
I'm quick to flash a pen, regardless
Your splash equal John Wayne eyes, before he reach revolvers
Ask harlots, I'm strangling an ex-caller
Source Award across the board, kid with Bronze collars
In a black hall, Bin Laden scholar
[Interlude: movie sample]
Get your punk ass back... fuck
Now I know you don't like that
Only muthafucker he can kill...
[Phillie]
Burn MC's to a third degree, Hercules
You get a mear smirk from me, purposely
Before I'm pushed over the edge, I'm redrum
When the feds come, the hair's grow
Plotting revenge, to leave you dead, son
I'm next to none, with extra guns
Twist your lid, like a fifth of rum
It's the unsung, live and unplugged
Young thug, one love, flesh of my flesh
Blood occurs, ride or get rode on, rhyme and flow strong
Times my enemy, fire to the Phillie, be
Decrease with every pull, glisten my every move
Waiting for the day God or Satan make it approved
Don't mean to be rude, if you see me with my face in my food
It's cuz I'm starving, gotta make moves regardless
If it means being a rap artist, it's over, B
Wait til they get a load of me
[Bronze Nazareth]
Yo, liver than Claude Dallas, outlaw with raw talents
Wrote rhymes in dope lines, sniffed through your ear
I bleed sounds of the block, and rounds from a Glock
Pound like an ox, profound, you get found in a box
Behind a chain link, take the kitchen sink on top of it
Next topper can chop it, like melodic war optics
Doorknobs the closet, where the gun case orbits
So rampage your piece, I keep my heartbeat at pace
For weak hearted that sleep hardest, I still gotta aim
When the thrill is gone, your pillage torn, seeing my glow
I'm so patient, I can watch a tree die and regrow
While my seeds scatter one in the hole, twenty five in a hoody
Cuz the zoo is full of scavage and wolves
[Phillie]
That way a ton like Mighty Joe Young
King of the jungle, soak game like a sponge
Coppers think life won't come to a sudden end
Fuck around, if shit don't crack, we make it bend
Got a lot to say, only if your not in our presence
Here's a lesson, better stay in your place and leave heaven
Leave your science books open, school's in session
Free at no cost, just food for thought
If I'm ever at a lost, toss salt in my wound
Adding insult to injury, is coke to my Hennessey
Sure shot like death to a Kennedy
Don't get too familiar, might kill ya
Spin earth off it's axis, flip your mattress
Rap Harry Potter, the scholar, back in action
Strapped for protection, stashed in a coupe
And a host, of automatic, weapons to shoot
It's all up to you, live or die slow
When you entering my zone, it's lyrical Tae Bo
Stretch, breathe, to all MC's
I quote, protect your throat, be easy...
[Outro: sample from "The Mechanic"]
He practically murdered that guy
Murder is only killing without a license
And everybody kills
Governments, the military, the police
Do you think that your motto's a killer?
Well he's a killer who doesn't kill
For him the rules are important
That's your expert opinion?
That's my opinion...
Swallow Lyrics
[Verse1]
The windy city swallows corn
Volcanic princess brings a storm
Count me out, I love the spring
Curdled creams another thing
Heaven's open, there's no space
For a future Afghan ace
Testosterone plus, and gym built strong
The meat is off, gravity blonde
[Instrumental]
[Verse 2]
A heavy elder mans the door
Working girls, man, man the floor
They scope the room, enhance the groove
Teaching aliens shamanic moves
It's in your face that dumb arse smile
Not worth a piss, ain't got no style
The white kids are a crying shame
They've got it all but parked their brains
[Instrumental]
Split Your Ends Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Under the hammer
A celebration of childhood
An impeding stammer
Words alone matter
When visual sense fails
Estimates broken
[Chorus]
Shooting through the shooting forests
On the move and in the hunt
Free to catch fresh scents
The dog flanks
Mend your ways but split your ends
[Verse 2]
Tiny terror
Orange fly weight
Box above don't hit below
Speeding through the ever
Changing seasons
Come, and people go
[Chorus]
[Instrumental]
[Verse 3]
A trawler captain
Scoops the loot
As prices shoot
Purple panther
Pulls the shades
And draws my fire
[Chorus]
[Outro]
Mend your ways but split your
Mend your ways but split your
Mend your ways but split your
Mend your ways but split your
Mend your ways but split your
Mend your ways but split your
Mend your ways but split your
Mend your ways but split your
Ends
Octopus Lyrics
[Verse 1]
She opens her mouth and seems to swallow us all
She shakes off taboos and unwanted organisms
There's a man outside who says he's come to read, the ether
Picking up bonus points when it's time for dinner
[Chorus]
There's always someone who thinks they've got a plan
Someone with a whip in hand, who thinks they are a man
A rescue package that will barely save the day
Even when implemented with no further delay
Delay
[Verse 2]
Predictive octopods, enchanting and seductive
Even the most mundane thoughts seem quite sensuous
This installation seem to bathe us all in sound
Picking up clues from penitential saviours
[Chorus]
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
Harpooned Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Day delayed messages, arrive and repeat, ah, ah
Ernest T. died, so we'll now never meet
I set fire to the kitchen, the damage was bad, ah, sad
I sat down by the fountain, went quietly mad
[Chorus]
I'm worried, I'm worried, there's cause for concern
I lit the touch paper and it started to burn
I'm worried, I'm worried there's cause for concern
Ignited and cornered, there's nowhere to turn
[Verse 2]
Better 'fess up, you're right off the scale, ah, but
Lately the second, swallowed a whale
Reality bends, and the hospital curves, ah, ah
Was it the weather, which got into your nerves?
[Chorus]
I'm worried, I'm worried, I'm frightened as hell
I heard voices echo way down in my shell
I'm worried, I'm worried, I'm frightened as hell
Walls closing in, I'm feeling unwell
[Instrumental]
[Bridge]
Oh, was it the weather, which got into your nerves?
Oh, was it the weather, that got into your nerves?
Oh, was it the weather, that got into your nerves?
Oh, was it the weather, that got into your nerves?
[Instrumental]
