letra de fanks - hock tu down
[verse 1]
runcorn, 1985
a 17-year-old single woman’s son’s born
a month late, like
f-ck life, laa, just wait
i’m telling you straight, i frustrate
tuck shop to bus stop
heading to the jobcentre plus, but plus what?
don’t cut the crusts off, just eat the sh-t
i need an anaesthetist to sleep
it’s been like this
since i quit
been lit since wizbit and tick
you’re it
risking me rent for the hit of a spliff
all of me mates have been in some sh-t
and none of them have got degrees
and spent their early years falling out of conker trees
and their late-teens popping es
f-ck warranties
i want everything that fell off the back of that lorry, please
[chorus]
‘cos manners cost nothing, but
if they did i’m logging everything ‘thank you’ in a pocket book
and saving up till there’s enough to tip a logging truck
tell me when it’s over, i don’t want to look
‘cos manners cost nothing, but
if they did i’m logging everything ‘thank you’ in a pocket book
and saving up till there’s enough to tip a logging truck
tell me when it’s over
[verse 2]
met me real dad at 16, haven’t seen him since 20
who’s to blame?
a fl!cked penny will decide
heads, it’s his
tails, it’s his
it hit the table spinning and settled on its side
big bag of skunk smelling like it died
plate full of soul food, everything is fried
nonchalantly burying your pride
showing off, ended up leathering it wide
dressed like billy hoyle
but with his off-coloured t–th dipped in foil
spitting like chips in oil
repressing thoughts before i sell an organ
solitary walking
through the backstreets until me legs are cramping
kicking old beer cans that probably outlived whoever drank ’em
on the gates of heaven planking
someone gave you a boost
don’t forget to thank ’em
[chorus]
‘cos manners cost nothing, but
if they did i’m logging everything ‘thank you’ in a pocket book
and saving up till there’s enough to tip a logging truck
tell me when it’s over, i don’t want to look
‘cos manners cost nothing, but
if they did i’m logging everything ‘thank you’ in a pocket book
and saving up till there’s enough to tip a logging truck
tell me when it’s over, i don’t want to look
