VERSE 1
Behind my back, they used to laugh
in -fact in front of my face, they’d actually laugh
until they saw me on stage, kicking arse
when I put them in their place with a couple of bars
If only they knew I was trying to use
the few limited abilites I had in my grasp
never quite near the top of the class
a complete lack of understanding for spelling and graphs
It’s all colour and class and pigeon-holes
but this little pigeon went missing sick of the role
anything had to be better than getting the dole
or sucking at the jobs on the bottom of the pay role
cel la vie, never trying to be
anything other than me, depsite what they might
have thought, it’s all talk, I now deal in talk
Who would’ve thought? I get paid to speak
VERSE 2
Zippo, slick with the flame
Grandad with the gold zimma-frame
eat dinner on spinny-rims, no plate
Holyoaks goes Holywood and Broadway
Braggadocious, most precocious
sick in the mouth like halitosis
If I didn’t do it, no one would notice
every job that I had I was hopeless
Pale body, a little bit awkward
slight speech-impedimanet when talking
metronone shoulders bop when I’m walking
facial features degfault to gawping
Used to think that bragging was boring
till I tried it, and I liked it
ignited a fire for bull-sh*itting
went Zippo with the flame and modesty went missing
