NARRATIVE VIEWS from LOCKED DOWN by Ginger Moush

Oh
Oh
It's about to get brown on this side of town
Motherfucker
Oh
Yeah we're dropping that beat
Funny old thing
What you saying mate?

Oh, it's the narrator
I know I said I would see you later
But to be frank, where would I go?
We're in a lockdown don't you bloody know?

The fuzz out fining for non-essential driving
when all we doing is just surviving

Oh goodness, did I put the pie in?
Everyone is a home baker now.

Rising up to the occasion
Haha, see what I did there?
Of course not, you're at home.
And hopefully, you're not alone.

Oh we're all, in this together
such a pity 'bout all the lovely weather
can't go out spending hours
sniffing flowers
that's not allowed

No flour on the shelf
can't make my bread
can't earn my crust

no work for the humble wordsmith
forget it mate!
Jump off a cliff

So, that's how I look at it
Trapped inside
The way you think of it

Each and every time I'm explaining
to everyone
is doing my brain in

let's not get political but
Boris Johnson
What a fucking c**t
Oh yes I'm not his biggest fan
what's your plan man?
Ignore us all man!

Killing old people
leaving them alone
in the old people's home
-ooh-

Not enough masks for the doctors, nurses
while I'm singing my versus
They're in the wards
helping people getting better
despite it all

It's a funny old world
Yeah right

Normality, it's a fallacy
the more I think about it
It ain't coming back to me

Normality, it's a fallacy
Get on your bike mate.

Oh it's the Narrator

DJ Orchard gave me this sick beat
so I can rap over it
Cos I can't be in the street

Already lots of mandatory exercise
Eating muffins everyday and going to my thighs

It's jogger fucking central down by the river
you mustn't dither
'cos some unsupervised kid will run into you
and then you'll get a cough
and what then will you do?

Essential items,
Must keep the shop open
Selling BBQs and trampo-fucking-lines
Oh yes that's so important
I need to buy that inflatable flamingo for my daughter

People being refused to buy paint
Oh no my house it looks a right state

Good job the in-laws aren't coming round
But good luck getting them on Skype
They can't get no sound

It's the narrator
