I need something in my life to straighten me out
Letīs rent this shed, weīll do vocals in the bog
Call toast PR tell īem weīve opened up shop
Campaign meetings at Warner, no coke and not drunk
3 years to make this work, or look a joke and be broke
Blag their lawyers like the con with a dog
And thereīll be no more straight scores to drop and keep dropping
Settle my gross addictions with my net and come
Tell my mum over tea that my whole lifeīs fucking up
Weīve got two fifty grand in the budget to go
Subtract five for club promo
Lose five for a good video and fifteen for a dud video, fuck that
Itīs the hardest way to make an easy living
The party stage is a bit nearer to delivery
Mayhem textes me about the press and TV
See if Iīve taken any Es
So I can get some sleep
Nap on the settee, the laptop next to me
Wince for my family at the skinner scandal of the week
TV pluggers, product managers straight up
Club promo needs to step up, help it work
Stick to our guns, donīt crack to demands
Tell my mum in the car, that the car might have to go back
Two hundred and twenty five grand
Twenty six grand for a showcase
And five more on tour support and support story
Itīs the hardest way to make an easy living
The party stage is a bit nearer to delivery
Weīll never get bankrupt if we never have a go
This is no ordinary able, I need to flash up my flow
Go into Morris stead as well as saville row
I want a pin-stripe suit that no man owns
Cash in the Kano beat for the silver shadow
Send it to warrior for the flash and the glow
The safest way to double your money is to fold it in your pocket
Tell my mum during breakfast that I got no sleep
Eight grand paid in September, April, may and December
If this keeps going so well, this is going to be the end of us
Itīs the hardest way to make an easy living
The party stage is a bit nearer to delivery
In spread betting itīs easy to draw a small fortune start
With a big fortune and lose into a small fortune
Havenīt got a clue, we blindly charge on
Death threats from a boy of the girl I sarged on
She said she didnīt have a bloke, another lesson marked down
Verbal agreements arenīt worth the paper theyīre marked on
Get scans of reviews, we beg to chart up
Tell my mum over tea, the press have started up
Weīve spent a fortune
īCause with ghost buying itīs the end for tune
We need to sell some records soon
Itīs the hardest way to make an easy living
The party stage is a bit nearer to delivery
Itīs the hardest way to make an easy living
The party stage is a bit nearer to delivery
