lyrics

Welcome to the world according to the baddest MC in the biz
Yeah, I’ve got a gold jacket, but I’m nothing if not humble
And like a fungal infection, I can cause you real trouble.

Just ‘cause you can’t get enough of me
You feel the groove and you develop a dependency
Oh, by the way, I dropped that athlete’s foot analogy three line ago
In case you still were looking for similarities.

Yeah, you probably think that I’m a big player
Well, yeah, I said I was but words aren’t worth the paper
You probably think that I’m like a young Don Draper
But I live right here in Yorkshire, not a fancy skyscraper.

So I’ve been seeing this girl I like since the Autumn
I say ‘seeing’, I guess it’s more like ‘watching’
No, she doesn’t even know who I am
I try to talk to her but I just shut up shop like a clam.

I get so nervous when I see her that my legs start shaking
Mouth dry at just the thought of conversation
Brain dead for potential ice-breakers
But I’m outside her house now, this is it, make or break time.

I can feel my heart racing
About to make the first communication
Take a big puff on my inhaler
She’s opening the door now, this is it, what do I say to her?

I don’t know what to say to her
She’s looking at me and I don’t know what to say to her
Like a deer in the headlights, I don’t know what to say to her
I’m shut like a clam, can’t think of anything to say to her
Then I’m like…

Yeah, I get lost for words around you.
Yeah, I get lost for words around you.

Still standing here, just looking like a muppet
Time stopped, sick feeling in my stomach
Wishing the ground would open up and I could plummet
She’s asking me if I’m ok, come on, just say summat.

(Say summat)
Just say summat
(Say summat)
Come on, just say summat
(Say summat)
Anything, just say summat
Just open your mouth and form the words and say summat.

So now she starts to shut the door in confusion
Thought she could be the one but that was just delusion
If only I could interact entirely through music
I’d point my speakers at her door and this is how I’d do it.
