Instrumental - True Tiger, WD25
VERSE 1
Often you might find me wondering
where it all went wrong and I struck again
frustarted thinking I’m one of them
same mistake repeated again
Like a cartoon archetype
sleep-deprived holding dynamite
lit-fuze follows the flame until BOOM
it backfires
Arsenal.
Build-up play so masterful
intricate passes into the box
open-goal, mis-lick the ball
flipping predictable
flip the scipt and then burn it all
undectable and untraceable
start again and then face them all
VERSE 2
Patience and persistence
one day it will all pay dividands
said the clerk in the job-centre
I weren’t listening
To busy writing in my diary
with fiction
could do with the dough right now
this JSA won’t last me a weekend
I’m seeking, alternative payments
had myself a little spirtual awakening
this currency is currently making
misery for many trying to bring home the bacon
we’re giving and they’re taking
from where I’m sitting this ‘aint changing
I’m not participating anymore! What?
An interview in Sainsburys? I’ll take it!
