Testo Playground Days - Pat
Testo della canzone Playground Days (Pat), tratta dall'album No Ball Games
We used to rock them bruised knees
Grazed elbow
School slacks, shoes on velcros
Football every Sunday, new boots
I need to get those
But when the channels on the TV played the best shows
You know that CBBC
Rappin' in the classroom, teachers hated it, see
They told me, "Pat, you're only rapping cause you can't sing"
But let me warm them vocal chords and get the staffroom dancin'
And everythin' was blessed then
Late nights, played COD with my best friend
Black Ops One, used to bang that daily
And we weren't worried 'bout a cheque or if they'll pay me
It's so mad that, used to rock up Vans, Chinos and a snap back
But I really weren't a skater
Just a foreign fat kid scribblin' some bars on some paper
I still remember playground days
Tryna stay away from teachers
Tellin' lies about our weekend
Still lookin' back on the shit we used to say
Things we used to play
I still remember playground days
I don't know how it feels, but it feels like I how it feels
When it's fake but it feels like it's real
And that don't make sense like a car with no wheels and
Things were so simple
Smiles so white that my cheeks would see dimples
And everythin' seemed light till nineteen with some jeans
Fuckin' hell, what a sight and ah
That's when I first picked up the pen
And I was tellin' all my mates I'm tryna be just like them
I started writin' and writin' and tryna pretend
That I was standin' on stage when I was bed
Performin' all of the bars that were stuck in my head
Then I was listenin' to tunes, I didn't know what they ment
Back when, the skippin' rope in my mind
My mum would barge up in my room and try and ruin my vibe like
"Mum, this is my show and it's live
You can't just barge in with no tickets whenever you like"
I was a clown since day one, kiss chase on the playground
Never was a quiet kid, and so I'm gonna stay loud
Never followed no crowd, singin' all these storm clouds
It's kinda weird to see how everything has changed now
I still remember playground days
Tryna stay away from teachers
Tellin' lies about our weekend
Still lookin' back on the shit we used to say
Things we used to play
I still remember playground days
Tryna stay away from teachers
Tellin' lies about our weekend
Still lookin' back on the shit we used to say
Things we used to play
I still remember playground days
