I am the show-stopper, the showrunner It's been a minute since I've known hunger Probably be inside for the whole Summer Sit back helpless and watch as businesses go under Still governed by what we buy and sell You're only as valuable as your clientele And I be in the back garden high as Hell Living la vida furlough, it's only right, I might as well But pay respects to all the keyworkers The bodies pile up, all I see is tearjerkers Take it on the chin? All I hear is we're worthless It's not far fetched, the description is near murders Boris took us for a damn ride Ventilators, short supply, he's got one on standby Now as the blood on his hands dries Another man cries, can't be there when his Mam dies So tell me who's your host this evening? How many deaths reported in your postal region? Serving up this roast I'm beefing The part-timer that missed all the Cobra meetings So deceiving, I just want the truth with no delaying I'm just saying, we need more than thoughts and praying But the media'd have us believe we're past the point of saving Shirking responsibility to those who won't stay in You Cancel plans 'cause there's no Summer Not until we see low numbers We're all in it for the whole struggle Ooh We've been living in our own bubble I can't say this is no trouble But it's just a wobble, no we won't crumble To us it's a hospital, them it's a murder scene Consistent budget cuts demonstrate they don't care for we But congrats on your paternity Eton boy in training, never see the same world as me I feel sorry for his married women In some way, I even feel sorry for Carrie Symonds How long til the next one who has to carry children And him and the general public already forgot about Wilfred? Impoverished families earning nowt for bread Real leaders wouldn't stop til all mouths are fed Past week, it's another fifteen thousand dead But apparently we're past the peak, so lockdown could end As long as everyone panics and rushes out to spend And landlords still collect extortionate amounts of rent Give it a few months and see how they now forget Why did I bother? I shouldn't have even got out of bed You Cancel plans 'cause there's no Summer Not until we see low numbers We're all in it for the whole struggle Ooh We've been living in our own bubble I can't say this is no trouble But it's just a wobble, no we won't crumble

Let the bell ding and we're straight back to square one No light shooting through the tunnel, lost my flare gun At this stage, everyone's just like "fair one" Restrictions are meaningless, it's nowt like the first one I'm writing in between calls at my desk Let it all off my chest, not a soul that's not depressed They won't cut us any slack and say working's a privilege I'm facing the sack, so I'm struggling to give a shit In these hard times, I'm Mr. Clean with the toothpaste Stay behind targets, Listerine for how that boot tastes Hurdles to vault-a, no Travolta, never lose face Me, I'm the spotter, see it happen, never moved weight Whole planet in submission with a stunning application With no end in sight, because you're shunning vaccinations And every press conference is another laceration I probably could stay in but still I lack the patience You know what? I could have been a superstart but then I got 2stoned Jalland Street's gone so I had to bring the group home Clocking on now, shit, who needs a new phone? Be out in Julember, just boxing off a few loans Rapscallion, scallywag battalion Rosé the whole day, the night I'm getting carried in I need a nice rich family I can marry in Still pimp it on the sly, yeah I Leisure Suit Larry it For now we're all stuck inside, man shit is great Nowt to look forward to, what do you anticipate? For a crumb of joy, what stands in the way? My life's demanding a pay of a grand in a day but You can have it for £8.72 and hour 'Cause the flat's fucking freezing and my milk's going sour, ugh In emergency, I've tanned off the power I couldn't be further from that Ivory Tower, superstar My Covid cough strong enough to bring a swollen jaw Handle loose, I broke the door, won't find me at home no more You got a biff? Well roll up four, who's arsed if you broke the law? Telling the boys I love 'em at the top of my vocal chords Wish I could flick a switch to magic out a better me But no swish-and-flick could create something that I'll never be An entry fee for therapy, least about a tenner each The gaff's a murder scene, but tonight I'm cooking Emma tea 'Cause I'm a star, high scores from the Michelin Still lacking focus, no prescription on the Ritalin Maybe one day we'll all start to live again Stranger things have happened and nowt can get shitter than This predicament of missing youth, look what we didn't do Need that Love Island Summer back, what's this we're living through? Every word on this page that I've writ' is truth But I'm still aloof, dead society, I'm living proof Perform an awkward dance, for punishment, I walk the plank? Do you recognise me? Oh yeah I seen you on Talk to Frank Corking tramp, I be boujee and a baghead All left swipes but look cool on cam my Dad said A mucky pup, I don't need to get a better style Slouching on them leather tiles, getting rinsed by Jezza Kyle Sometimes I wake up and think "how could I ever smile?"
