Bad Advice

[Verse 1]
He’s setting up his speakers
The other week I seen him up Market Street
He was telling me he’s getting all the pennies in
CDs in the plastic sheets

Excuse me do you like rap music?
Wait listen to me spit real quick
Do you wanna buy something?
If you like it you can chuck man a few quid

He come equipped with the headphones
Still dreams of making it big
He rock a tin foil hat in the sunshine
Waiting for the lightning strike to hit

[Chorus]
Bredren he’s far out
He’s really going in
Sitting in spaceship made of cardboard
He gonna burn down everything
He wanna shoot for the stars and that
But the car it’s got no engine
He ride around til the wheels turn loose
Climb out start swinging for revenge’n
Cos when you start looking like that
Trust me all of the knives come out
You could be the nicest guy in the world
They will smile back at you with a grin
Trust me bad advice
Given in a confident voice
Is a terrible thing

[Verse 2]
He had a chat with his uncle
He said he need it more commercial
Get your face on one of them tv shows
It could really work out well for you

He went out got a new pair of Jordans
And to be fair he killed the audition
He freestyled thru a few rounds
But after a bit the judges didn’t pick him

On the road now they know him a little
He’s got a banner as seen on the telly
He starts to feel like it might be real
The public love a bit of novelty don’t they

And as the years roll by
He’s gripping that mic real tight
Watching the people walking on
And he sees the fashion start to change

[Chorus]
Bredren he’s far out
He’s really going in
Sitting in spaceship made of cardboard
He gonna burn down everything
He wanna shoot for the stars and that
But the car it’s got no engine
He ride around til the wheels turn loose
Climb out start swinging for revenge’n
Cos when you start looking like that
Trust me all of the knives come out
You could be the nicest guy in the world
They will smile back at you with a grin
Trust me bad advice
Given in a confident voice
Is a terrible thing
