about
Most people see Fawlty Towers in charity shop digs and give them a wide berth but I'm trying to collect the set. Bloody love Fawlty Towers me. Maybe the first hip-hop track with Basil on? Let me know. I've probably been spending too much time with DJ Format, this is a bad attempt to make an upbeat banger like he could! I made the beat first and consulted my phone memos for concept ideas, had one about being in a rush all the time as life always seems to be zipping by and you're late for everything. This is a track that really benefited from Steve Ling's guitar, adding to the tension and hectic vibe overall. I still remember being told by my head teacher, when I was 10 or so, that soon I'd be sitting my SATs. But then soon it will be GCSEs. And soon you'll be an adult and wonder where all the time went. He's dead now.
lyrics
I got, things to do and people to see/
And as soon as I get to the place I'm needing to leave/
Cos I'm late for the place that I'm meaning to be/
Before getting to mine in time, for eating my tea/
Then I've got evening plans, the next day comes/
Another million things that need to get done/
I'll rest at some point, won't that be fun/
Right now I'm behind and I'm needing to run//
Get a wriggle on...
Get a wriggle on and put down your phone stop scrolling through/
Standing round like you got nowt to do/
Your parents gave the whole world to you/
The least you can do is change your attitude/
And start acting like your life matters, I haven't/
Still making music I barely like rapping/
How embarrassing is this? I'm a lyricist/
Here's some poetry to prove that I exist/
We're fragile, and in a rush to live/
Get through this life that has much to give/
Take what you can, you were once just six/
And you wake up today and (..) that's it//
Get a wriggle on...
Get a wriggle on you've not got long before ya drop comms/
If your jobs wrong sack it and jog on/
If you've found what you wanna do/
In crowds or in solitude/
Don't stop, even if there's thousands in front of you/
Head down, get ahead of the pack/
Beating yourself up when you're better than that/
Don't listen to chat from mouths of the miserable twats/
They'll tell you it's not possible: this is a trap/
Mainly in creativity this will apply/
As soon as people say you're wrong - you're probably right/
If people say you can't, then you probably can/
But better do it while you have time, this is the plan//
Get a wriggle on...
Get a wriggle on like you know you're late/
If you're usually moving your time is at a slower rate/
And there's no escape/
From the time ending gotta seize each chance that you can take/
There's bastards to evade/
People see you moving and do what they can to slow your pace/
Slag you off and say/
"You look stupid stop moving you loser and you'll never make/
What you're trying to make", keep your eye on these snakes/
Cos they might even say, they're just trying to be mates/
See you flying away, act like child in a way/
Wanna keep you grounded instead of finding some space/
And once you're skyborne, you might be a fraud/
Everyone who does anything was once quite unsure/
But one thing's certain, time is short/
Live life before worms are round your corpse/
...Getting a wriggle on//
