“Nudge It” takes aim at those artists who would disingenuously and superficially take on the trappings of the working class, likening them to “mimes” who lack creativity and proper respect.
Sleaford Mods hasn’t been shy about calling out fellow artists for such transgressions in the past. Notably,...
[Intro: Amy Taylor]
Gimme gimme
Gimme gimme
[Verse 1: Jason Williamson]
I been out playin' to this mindless abandon
This ropey idea about love and connection
Just stuck on silly ideas 'cause it's all you can cook
You fucking class tourist, you mix your social groups up
It's like you all stick together, a stronger edition
The non-creatives on impact, you got no invention
Just stuck on silly ideas 'cause it's all you can cook
This kitchen's lookin' sketch, you mix your chopping boards up
[Chorus: Jason Williamson]
Nudge it
You're just a mime that's spraying and praying on walls
And the after-effects are making my skin crawl
You're just a mime that's saying and playing sod-all
And the after-effects are making my skin crawl
[Verse 2: Jason Williamson]
I've been odd joked into a pool of inaction
It's all commercial game to plant the seeds of destruction
It's all a tired meeting in the MOR board
Ticking boxes with the subjects for political score
The kudos makes it go on top where he stays, and
The sequence of not being that close to his face, and
Just stuck on silly ideas 'cause it's all you can do
Your car ain't got no brakes, it's just laughing at you
[Chorus: Jason Williamson]
Nudge it
You're just a mime that's spraying and praying on walls
And the after-effects are making my skin crawl
You're just a mime that's saying and playing sod-all
And the after-effects are making my skin crawl
[Verse 3: Amy Taylor]
I can drop a lyric with no need to drop a name
I do it for the pleasure, the money and the fame
You're sayin' that you love it, I'm sayin' that you're lyin'
I've been putting in the work, but you're barely even tryin'
[Bridge: Jason Williamson]
Stood outside an high-rise tryin' to act like a gangsta
Stood outside an high-rise tryin' to act like a gangsta
Stood outside an high-rise tryin' to act like a gangsta
Stood outside an high-rise
[Chorus: Jason Williamson & Amy Taylor]
You're just a mime that's spraying and praying on walls
And the after-effects are making my skin crawl
You're just a mime that's saying and playing sod-all
And the after-effects are making my skin crawl
You're just a mime that's spraying and praying on walls
And the after-effects are making my skin crawl
You're just a mime that's saying and playing sod-all
And the after-effects are making my skin crawl

Imagine you’ve got limited options, unsure how you’re getting by that week, looking out the window of the damp flat you don’t want to live in, and seeing a bunch of posers having a photo shoot because ‘cool architecture bro...
