lyrics

El: Your rap is pallid rage, average aggy bloke/ I rave inhuman black raps, Edgar Allen Poe/ I can't stand like in a paddleboat/ We stand alone so hand the rope/ Not to hang, but Captain El will let you up, so grab a float/ Washed up on a sandy slope
Jon: Or washed up getting badly soaked
El: Like shaking up a can of coke, I'm waking up the fans with jokes/ And slamming quotes to leave you happy like a bag of smoke/ At shows I'm groped like catholic nuns who try to grab the pope/ I don't ram it down your throat or battle antlers like an antelope/ I just sling the slang to split your melon like a cantaloupe/ Shit that sells, hits our shelves, hell I'm glad I'm broke/ The vagabond to wrap it up so phat you need a macroscope/ To see the plan in action, it's so massive and it's dope/ I don't butt in like a ram and goat/ Or fad like telly talent shows/ Here's some cash, just get get your coat, grab a cab and go/ If rap's the masses' opiate we're back to bring the antidote...

Jon: And my bad aromas have been known to wake the dead/ Invading maisonettes; shaking you vacant space cadets/ And paper chasers with shaven chests/ Wailing wet serenades with pained expressions like they're bout to lay an egg/ We always came correct, staying fresh to great effect/ Upstaging plebs' blatant laziness/ I walk a razor's edge to remain cutting like a bayonet/ Cutting like my mate G petz/ Major heads get blazed and flex vague at best/ As stuck in their ways as scalextric racing sets/ 'Never confuse motion with action' as Hemingway once said/ You may be taking steps, but remaining in place; like majorettes/
Mate, instead of safe repetitive behaviour, lets have a game of chess/ Or play some laserquest/ Take the stage undressed/ Making threats of taking crowd participation to a greater depth/ Yes.
