Lyrics:
Chorus x 2:
I don't know about you, but, I could use a little down time, I'm,
sick of being stuck in one room, when, so much could happen outside,
we're all animals in our own way an' all animals need a little light an' space,
so what you need to try an' do is break the chains instead of sittin' in a cage
wishin' life away now
It's friday night,
an' you are down for some fun an well the time is right,
your whole week's been a catalogue of minor gripes
an' niggling little things that make you die inside
but you don't need any problems on your mind tonight
don't watch them, take em out your line of sight
don't be givin' into grief simply dry your eyes
time for you to hit the street like it's final fight
so socialise, you're gettin' into the vibe
an' on it like the type of guy that doesn't need tellin' twice
all of life doesn't need to be (so damn dry)
if you're with me on that please hold your hands high
some folk use, any excuse to let loose
others stay holed up like chickens in coups
now, I would say the thing that you need to do
is find a happy medium somewhere in between the two
an', get involved
Chorus x 1
What's up now you're lookin' kind of tightly wound
what you need to do is quickly turn your life around
it's a thin line, between smiles an' frowns
but you can hit the big time here's a guide to how
gather round gather round we supply the sound,
that can entice a crowd, to get entirely roused
it's gettin' hot in up here someone wipe me down
I'm feelin' like I might've lost about 19 pounds
or thereabouts, in your whereabouts,
gettin' funky in the club we need to air it out
I'm not saying fuck everything you care about
but now an' then ease off on the pressure valve
I know life can be full of heartbreak an sorrow
but we'll deal with that later let's say tomorrow
until then just remember how to act like children an'
let me see you exhibit a lack of discipline
Chorus x 2

Still kickin this jam daily, can't believe my last comment from 3 years ago is still the last comment, Dr Syntax doesn't get the rep he deserves, his solo work 8s hilarious and dope, his work with Pete Cannon, Split Prophets, The four Owls on it's own is crazy and the list goes on. Man deserves more rep ✌

[@TerrorVisual]

Huge fan of older Syntax stuff but just not in to this I'm afraid. Almost sounds like mid 80s rap to me and it's the 90s sound that speaks to me. Obviously people need to express themselves the way they want to and I've got no right (or desire) to tell them to do so in a different way. Just sharing my opinion. Peas.

[@jdhands1948]
