Mr. Heys wakes up, same old day,
City streets and skies of grey,
He's clocking in, no time to dream,
But in his mind, he's free, it seems.
The circus calls from far away,
To swing and fly, to feel okay.
Chorus:
Mr. Heys, Flying Heys,
Above the crowd, he's on his way,
From the ground, he'll break the chains,
In the sky, he’ll make his name.
Flying Heys, Flying Heys,
No more ordinary days.
Every day, he walks the line,
Punch the clock, ignore the signs,
But in his heart, the circus roars,
He flips and spins, defying laws.
Through rings of fire, he dares to leap,
In the air, his soul’s at peace.
Chorus:
Mr. Heys, Flying Heys,
Above the crowd, he's on his way,
From the ground, he’ll break the chains,
In the sky, he’ll make his name.

No more ordinary days.

But here he stands, a simple man,
Tied to tasks, no circus plan,
Yet when the night falls, and he sleeps,
The circus comes, in dreams so deep.
Chorus:
Mr. Heys, Flying Heys,
Above the crowd, he's on his way,
From the ground, he’ll break the chains,
In the sky, he’ll make his name.
Flying Heys, Flying Heys,
No more ordinary days.

Forever free in circus ways.

Lyrics:
In a sea of faces, I stand alone,
Smiles all around, but my mind's in a zone.
Laughing and dancing, they all seem to find,
A connection I miss, lost in my mind.
Chorus:
Echoes in the crowd, they just bounce around,
Trying to speak, but I can't find the sound.
Surrounded yet secluded, in thoughts I'm bound,
I'm here but I'm hidden, in plain sight but not found.
They talk and they talk, words fly like the breeze,
But their words just drift, like leaves off the trees.
I nod and I smile, but inside I scream,
Wishing my thoughts could be heard, not just seen.
Chorus:
Echoes in the crowd, they just bounce around,
Trying to speak, but I can't find the sound.
Surrounded yet secluded, in thoughts I'm bound,
I'm here but I'm hidden, in plain sight but not found.
Bridge:
In this bustling space, the silence grows deep,
A fortress of solitude, even in a heap.
Is there a key to unlock this gate,
To connect with the world, to open and relate?
Outro:
So I'll dance to the beat of my own drum,
In the midst of the crowd, to the sound of my hum.
Maybe one day, my voice will break through,
Until then, I'll find peace in my view.
I'll continue with the remaining tracks!
In My Street

Lyrics:
Early morning rise, same old shoes,
Walking to work with nothing to lose,
They carry the weight of a world gone cold,
Ordinary lives, but their stories unfold.
Refrain:
They fight through the day, just to get by,
Living on the edge, never asking why,
No big dreams, no future in sight,
But they survive through the endless night.
Neighbours on the block, they know the score,
Struggling for rent, always needing more,
Some turn to smoke, others to drink,
In the cracks of life, they try not to sink.
Refrain:
They fight through the day, just to get by,
Living on the edge, never asking why,
No big dreams, no future in sight,
But they survive through the endless night.
Interlude:
In the streetlights’ glare, shadows fall,
But these people, they stand tall.
Some days it feels like the world’s on fire,
Low-income dreams getting buried in mire,
But they find a way, they find a spark,
To keep on pushing through the dark.
Final Refrain:
They fight through the day, just to get by,
Living on the edge, never asking why,
No big dreams, no future in sight,
But they survive through the endless night.
Coda:
They survive, oh they survive…

Lyrics:
They all show their fancy lives, online every day,

No glitter, no glam, just the grind and the grime,
While they’re on the yachts, I’m counting my time.
Pre-Chorus:
But this is me, this is real!
No need for filters or some big deal.
Chorus:
My life ain’t made for your social feed,
No perfect pictures, just what I need,
Ain’t meeting stars, ain’t dining in style,
Just keeping it real, living all the while.
No trendy coffees, no posh meals to share,
Just a cuppa tea, and a well-worn chair,
My walls ain’t fancy, my clothes ain’t new,
But I’m getting by, with a view that’s true.
Pre-Chorus:
But this is me, this is real!
No need for filters or some big deal.
Chorus:

No perfect pictures, just what I need,

Just keeping it real, living all the while.
Spoken Interlude:
"So here I am, staring at me plate,
Beans on toast, no Instagram-worthy bait,
Ain’t no avocado or fancy cuisine,
Just something simple, if you know what I mean.
No one’s gonna ‘like’ this humble spread,
But hey, it fills me up, keeps me fed."
Bridge:
They’re chasing likes, but I’ll stay grounded,
Their flashy lives, I’m just surrounded,
But here in the chaos, I find my peace,
Not living for others, my own release.
Final Chorus:
My life ain’t made for your social feed,
No perfect pictures, just what I need,
Ain’t meeting stars, ain’t dining in style,
Just keeping it real, living all the while!

Hey, hey, let the trumpets play,

Dancing close but always cheek to cheek.
Chorus:
Peekaboo, I see you,
Hiding smiles under the moonlit hue.
Peekaboo, feelings true,
Under the stars, something new.
Tap of the drum, where's it from?
Underneath the laughter, something's begun.
Twirling around, no words found,
In the beat, our secrets are bound.
Chorus:
Peekaboo, I see you,
Giggles echo in the midnight blue.
Peekaboo, hearts pursue,
In the dance, our spirits renew.
Talk of dreams, sharing memes, flowing streams,
Finding joy in each other’s extremes.
No need to hide, side by side, in stride,
Friendship’s tune, on this ride we abide.

Hey, hey, let’s just say,
It’s a peekaboo love in our joyful play!

We didn’t need no ocean view,
Clapham's vibe is something new.

Clapham’s charm will never cease,
No regrets, no fancy frills,

Home Again
Home Again
==========
[Verse 1: upbeat, strong beat]
Back in the streets, it’s been a while,
Cracks in the road, but still that smile.
Faces change, but some remain,
Memories hit, never the same.
[Chorus: full brass, driving beat]
Back to the ends, where it all began,
Days were long, nights never ran.
Bittersweet, this place I know,
This is home, where my heart’ll go.
(Back again, oh-oh)
[Breakdown: syncopation, sharp brass]
I’ve changed, but it’s all the same,
Corner shop still knows my name.
[Verse 2: energetic ska rhythm]
Pubs are packed, laughter loud,
The ol’ crew’s still a rowdy crowd.
Bitter edge, sweet embrace,
Smiles hide time’s slow erase.
[Chorus: powerful brass, fast beat]
Back to the ends, where it all began,
Nights were wild, made our stand.
Bittersweet, these streets I know,
This is home, where my heart’ll go.
(Back again, oh-oh)
[Bridge: bold brass, fast rhythm]
Left to find a world out there,
But nothin’ beats the love we shared.
City’s changed, but soul’s intact,
Back again, but it’s a fact.
[Chorus: full brass, driving beat]
Back to the ends, where it all began,
Days were long, nights never ran.
Bittersweet, this place I know,
This is home, where my heart’ll go.
(Back again, oh-oh)
[Verse 3: fast-paced, strong beat]
Years have passed, heart’s still here,
Alleyways filled with songs we cheer.
I’ve been gone, but now I see,
This is where I’m meant to be.
[Chorus: full brass, wall of sound, driving beat]
Back to the ends, where it all began,
Days were long, nights never ran.
Bittersweet, this place I know,
This is home, where my heart’ll go.
(Back again, oh-oh)
[Outro: brass, strong beat, no fade]
Back to the ends, where it all began,
Love is real, pain’s the plan.
Bittersweet, but I’m home again,
In these streets, where it all began.
(Back again, oh-oh)
(Back again, oh-oh)
Alone Tonight
=============
[Spoken Intro, heavy cockney accent]
"Ah, there she is again, dancin' like no one’s watchin'. Every time I think, 'This is it, mate, go talk to her.' But nah, not tonight… maybe tomorrow, eh?"
[Verse 1]
There she is, dancin' round,
Feet on fire, never on the ground,
I make a move, pint in hand,
But my feet stay put, can’t even stand.
[Pre-Chorus]
I look, I stare, she’s there again,
Heart's racin', but I just pretend,
Take a step, then I freeze,
Every time, it’s like a tease.
[Chorus]
She’s dancin' free, but I can’t go near,
Mouth dry, mind full of fear,
I’ll try tomorrow, get it right,
But tonight, I’m goin' home alone tonight.
[Verse 2]
Another chance, but somethin’s wrong,
The jukebox changes up the song,
Spilled my drink, lost my nerve,
Now I’m sittin' in reserve.
["Woman giggles softly in the background"]
[Chorus]
She’s dancin' free, but I can’t go near,
Mouth dry, mind full of fear,
I’ll try tomorrow, get it right,
But tonight, I’m goin' home alone tonight.
[Verse 1]
There she is, dancin' round,
Feet on fire, never on the ground,
I make a move, pint in hand,
But my feet stay put, can’t even stand.
[Final Chorus]
She’s dancin' free, and I’ll break through,
Tomorrow, I’ll know just what to do,
I’ll get it right, I’ll take my shot,
But tonight, I'm off home with a lot to think about.

Eliza Won't Fall
================
[Verse 1]
Eliza's walkin’ down the market lane,
She’s seen ‘em all, it’s always the same.
They shout, “Oi, darling! How about tonight?”
(She don’t turn, keeps ‘em out of sight.)
She’s got no time for the easy score,
Heard every line—they're all a bore.
“Give us a chance,” they plead and say,
(She just smiles, and walks away.)
[Pre-Chorus]
They ask, “Why you so tough to crack?”
Eliza knows, there’s no goin’ back.
[Chorus]
Eliza won’t fall, she’s seen it before,
You’re wastin’ your breath, keep lookin’ for more.
You try to charm, but she’s already gone,
(Eliza won’t fall!) she’s movin’ on.
[Verse 2]
At the corner café, they try to chat,
"Buy you a drink?" She’s heard all that.
With a wink, she flips her hair,
(They just stare, but she don’t care.)
Last week, Danny tried his best,
Thinks he’s slick, better than the rest.
But Eliza’s been around the block,
(She don’t answer when they knock.)
[Pre-Chorus]
They ask, “Why you so tough to get?”
Eliza knows, she ain’t fallin’ yet.
[Chorus]
Eliza won’t fall, no matter the game,
They play the cards, but it’s always the same.
You think you’ve won, but she’s one step ahead,
(Eliza won’t fall!) just smiles instead.
[Bridge]
She hears them talkin’, "She’s a mystery,"
But Eliza don’t need no company.
Boys keep tryin’, they’re runnin’ in place,
(She’s got the moves, but you won’t keep pace.)
[Chorus - Variation]
Eliza won’t fall, not a word she’ll say,
You can try all you want, she’ll slip away.
Think you’re clever, but you’re wastin’ your time,
(Eliza won’t fall!) she’s doin’ fine.
[Outro]
So when you see her, just tip your hat,
She’s seen it all, don’t bother with that.
Eliza’s free, don’t need to call,
(Eliza won’t fall!) no, not at all.
(Eliza won’t fall!)
(Eliza won’t fall!)
Keep Moving On
==============
Keep moving on, don’t you stop,
Life’s a rhythm, let it drop.
Keep moving on, find your way,
Tomorrow’s light starts today.
Keep moving on
Started out in a gray old town, where the skies matched the mood,
People shuffled through their days, like a life on loop,
Every street was a story, every corner a tale,
But dreams were packed in boxes, waiting to set sail.
There was a boy who watched it all, wide-eyed, full of wonder,
He saw the cracks in the pavement, heard the distant thunder,
But he didn’t bow to the gloom, didn’t fall to the weight,
He found rhythm in the chaos, something to celebrate.
Keep moving on, don’t you stop,
Life’s a rhythm, let it drop.
Keep moving on, find your way,
Tomorrow’s light starts today.
Keep moving on
He watched the world with a curious mind, saw beyond the grime,
Every struggle, every pain, was a reason to climb.
He found music in the streets, where others saw only dust,
Turned the whispers of despair into something he could trust.
When the nights were long and cold, and the dawn seemed far,
He’d hum a tune to the beat of his old guitar,
The city sighed, the people wept, but he kept moving on,
For every tear that fell, he knew the morning would come.
Keep moving on, don’t you stop,
Life’s a rhythm, let it drop.
Keep moving on, find your way,
Tomorrow’s light starts today.
Keep moving on
He grew up, faced the world, with its highs and its lows,
But he never lost that spark, the one that always knows,
That every storm will pass, and every wound will heal,
If you find the beat in your heart, the one that’s real.
So he sang his songs, played his part, in this world’s grand play,
Knowing that every note he struck could chase the dark away.
And when the road got tough, and the days seemed long,
He’d remind himself with a smile and a song:
Keep moving on, don’t you stop,
Life’s a rhythm, let it drop.
Keep moving on, find your way,
Tomorrow’s light starts today.
Keep moving on
And now he stands, looking back, at the path he’s walked,
With a heart full of stories, and a mind that’s talked,
To the dreams that were once boxed, now they’re free,
Dancing in the sunlight, as they were meant to be.
He knows the world’s still turning, with its joys and its pains,
But as long as there’s music, there’s something to gain.
So he keeps on singing, keeps on playing the tune,
For every soul that’s lost, and for the hope that’s soon.
Keep moving on, don’t you stop,
Life’s a rhythm, let it drop.
Keep moving on, find your way,
Tomorrow’s light starts today.
Keep moving on

[Verse 1: urgent tone, sharp beat]
Tick-tock, time’s running out,
The earth’s on fire, there’s no doubt.
Can’t keep waiting, can’t delay,
We’ve got to act, and start today.
(Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock)
[Chorus: powerful brass, driving rhythm]
Tick-tock, hear the clock,
Can’t you see? We’re on the block.
Tick-tock, no more time,
Act now, before the climb.
(Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock)
[Breakdown: syncopation, brass hits]
Can’t ignore, can’t pretend,
This world’s heading for the end.
(Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock)
[Verse 2: fast rhythm, intense tone]
Oceans rise, forests burn,
When will we all learn?
Tick-tock, it’s almost here,
The point of no return, so clear.
(Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock)
[Chorus: full brass, driving beat]
Tick-tock, hear the clock,
Can’t you see? We’re on the block.
Tick-tock, no more time,
Act now, before the climb.
(Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock)
[Bridge: bold brass, urgent tone, syncopated rhythm]
Tick-tock, the time is now,
Can’t go back, don’t know how.
Every second slipping by,
We’ve got to act, or watch it die.
(Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock)
[Verse: urgent tone, sharp beat]
Tick-tock, time’s running out,
The earth’s on fire, there’s no doubt.
Can’t keep waiting, can’t delay,
We’ve got to act, and start today.
(Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock)
(Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock)
[Interlude]
(Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock)
[Chorus: full brass, driving beat]
Tick-tock, hear the clock,
Can’t you see? We’re on the block.
Tick-tock, no more time,
Act now, before the climb.
(Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock)
[Bridge: bold brass, urgent tone, syncopated rhythm]
Tick-tock, the time is now,
Can’t go back, don’t know how.
Every second slipping by,
We’ve got to act, or watch it die.
(Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock)
[Verse 3: fast-paced, serious tone]
Politicians talk, but do they care?
While the planet gasps for air.
Tick-tock, it’s up to us,
We need change, there’s no fuss.
(Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock)
[Outro: sharp brass, urgent beat, no fade]
Tick-tock, don’t delay,
The earth needs us today.
Tick-tock, the end is near,
It’s time to act, no more fear.
(Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock)
Down Below
==========
[Verse 1: dark tone, free verse]
I packed my bags, said goodbye to the grind,
Tired of the world, sick of what I’d find.
Concrete towers, shadows too long,
I needed a place where I could belong.
So I found a path, slipped into the night,
Down to the tunnels, away from the light.
[Chorus: repetitive, liberating chant]
Down below, down below,
Where the cold winds never blow.
Found my peace in the dark and deep,
Where the city above can’t make me weep.
(Down below, down below)
[Verse 2: defiant tone, free verse]
The lights up top lost their spark,
So I traded them for the underground dark.
No more hustle, no more strain,
Just the rumble of tracks and the whisper of rain.
I walk these tunnels, call them home,
In the shadows, I’m free to roam.
[Chorus: repetitive, liberating chant]
Down below, down below,
Where the cold winds never blow.
Found my peace in the dark and deep,
Where the city above can’t make me weep.
(Down below, down below)
[Bridge: reflective, free verse, syncopated rhythm]
I found my rhythm in the echoing halls,
Where the quiet hum is my curtain call.
No more rules, no ticking clocks,
Just the beat of my heart on these endless walks.
Rats and walls, they’re my kin,
I shed the old life, and let the new begin.
[Verse 3: liberating tone, free verse]
No more smog, no more streets,
Just the steady pulse beneath my feet.
I traded the noise for the underground hum,
Where I’m not just another, I’m the only one.
The maze is mine, the dark’s my friend,
I found my place at the tunnel’s end.
[Chorus: repetitive, liberating chant]
Down below, down below,
Where the cold winds never blow.
Found my peace in the dark and deep,
Where the city above can’t make me weep.
(Down below, down below)
[Outro: eerie guitar riff, deep brass, no fade]
Down below, down below,
Where the cold winds never blow.
Found my peace in the dark and deep,
Where the city above can’t make me weep.
(Down below, down below)
(Down below, down below)
Love Across Borders
===================
[Verse 1: reflective, storytelling]
I’ve been on trains, I’ve sailed the seas,
In every land, I feel the breeze.
Faces change, but love’s the same,
No matter where, it knows your name.
From Paris streets to Tokyo lights,
In every heart, love takes flight.
[Pre-Chorus: building rhythm, playful tone]
We don’t need to speak the same,
The feeling’s there, the heart’s aflame.
No walls, no rules can tear apart,
What’s written deep inside the heart.
[Chorus: multilingual, upbeat, driving beat]
Je t’aime,
Jag älskar dig,
Aishiteru,
Ngiyakuthanda.
I love you, in every way,
No matter the words, it’s love we say.
(Je t’aime, Jag älskar dig, Aishiteru, Ngiyakuthanda)
[Verse 2: more narrative flow, syncopation]
In Stockholm’s cold, or Durban’s heat,
The rhythm of love can’t miss a beat.
In every city, in every town,
It lifts you up when you’re feeling down.
Across the globe, it knows no end,
It’s in the eyes of every friend.
[Bridge: reflective, soft rhythm, brass backing]
We speak in tones, we speak in smiles,
Across the distance, across the miles.
From Africa’s plains to Japan’s bright lights,
Love’s a language, it unites.
[Chorus: multilingual, with fuller brass, driving beat]
Je t’aime,
Jag älskar dig,
Aishiteru,
Ngiyakuthanda.
I love you, in every way,
No matter the words, it’s love we say.
(Je t’aime, Jag älskar dig, Aishiteru, Ngiyakuthanda)
[Pre-Chorus: building rhythm, playful tone]
We don’t need to speak the same,
The feeling’s there, the heart’s aflame.
No walls, no rules can tear apart,
What’s written deep inside the heart.
[Chorus: multilingual, upbeat, driving beat]
Je t’aime,
Jag älskar dig,
Aishiteru,
Ngiyakuthanda.
I love you, in every way,
No matter the words, it’s love we say.
(Je t’aime, Jag älskar dig, Aishiteru, Ngiyakuthanda)
[Chorus: multilingual, with fuller brass, driving beat]
Je t’aime,
Jag älskar dig,
Aishiteru,
Ngiyakuthanda.
I love you, in every way,
No matter the words, it’s love we say.
(Je t’aime, Jag älskar dig, Aishiteru, Ngiyakuthanda)
[Guitar solot]
[New Verse 3: expanding the theme, driving beat]
Through time and space, it always stays,
Love’s the thread that weaves our days.
From ancient lands to futures bright,
Love is the spark that gives us light.
In every culture, every tongue,
It’s the song that’s always sung.
[Breakdown: spoken word, syncopated rhythm]
No borders, no distance too far,
Love is a compass, no matter where you are.
From Africa to Asia, Sweden to France,
Love’s the rhythm, we all dance.
[Chorus: stripped back, intimate, with light guitar]
Je t’aime,
Jag älskar dig,
Aishiteru,
Ngiyakuthanda.
I love you, across the sea,
No matter where, you’re home to me.
[Outro: bright brass, celebratory rhythm, guitar riffs]
No borders, no fences high,
We’ll walk together, you and I.
Je t’aime, Jag älskar dig, Aishiteru, Ngiyakuthanda,
I love you, wherever you stand.
(Je t’aime, Jag älskar dig, Aishiteru, Ngiyakuthanda)
London Blackout
===============
[Verse 1]
The lights went out, the telly’s dead,
No flicker from the lamp by the bed,
No work today, the kettle’s cold,
But your hands, love, feel like gold.
[Chorus]
Oi! It’s the London Blackout, can’t see the street,
No work, no telly, no food to eat,
But love’s still burnin’, we don’t need light,
In this dark, we’ll make it right.
[Verse 2]
We stumble ‘round, the cooker’s off,
Ain’t no tea, and the bread’s gone soft,
But there’s warmth, love, in your touch,
In this blackout, we don’t need much.
[Chorus]
Oi! It’s the London Blackout, can’t see the street,
No work, no telly, no food to eat,
But love’s still burnin’, we don’t need light,
In this dark, we’ll make it right.
[Bridge]
(Feel your heart beat through the night,
Whisper soft, “We’ll be alright.”)
The city’s quiet, the world’s asleep,
But in your arms, I fall so deep.
[Verse 3]
The bombs could drop, but here we lay,
London’s blacked out, but we’re okay,
No lights, no sound, but what we’ve found,
Is that love’s the brightest thing around.
[Chorus]
Oi! It’s the London Blackout, can’t see the street,
No work, no telly, no food to eat,
But love’s still burnin’, we don’t need light,
In this dark, we’ll make it right.
[Chorus]
Oi! It’s the London Blackout, can’t see the street,
No work, no telly, no food to eat,
But love’s still burnin’, we don’t need light,
In this dark, we’ll make it right.
[Outro]
Oi! The blackout’s long, but love is bright,
In your arms, I’ll stay tonight.
Spring-Heeled Jack
==================
[Intro]
In the gaslit mist, where the cobbles sigh (ahh...)
Footsteps fade like whispers, in the blink of an eye.
Through alleys of smoke and windows ajar (mmm...),
He’s more than a shadow, more distant than stars.
(Spring-heeled Jack, Spring-heeled Jack...)
[Verse 1]
In the haze where cobblestones whisper and weep,
A shadow moves swift, as the city sleeps deep.
He leaps through the fog like a breath never caught,
Spring-heeled Jack, with his soul made of naught.
[Chorus]
A flicker of smoke, a memory undone (ahh...),
He dances with the night but hides from the sun.
The rooftops remember the curve of his flight,
Spring-heeled Jack, born from London’s twilight.
[Verse 2]
He wears the wind like a cloak spun of air,
His footprints dissolve as if never there.
Eyes like embers, fading too soon,
He mocks the stars, outpacing the moon.
[Chorus]
A flicker of smoke, a memory undone (ahh...),
He dances with the night but hides from the sun.
The rooftops remember the curve of his flight,
Spring-heeled Jack, born from London’s twilight.
[Bridge]
Was he the ghost of dreams never dared?
Or a trick of the light, when no one cared?
Was he fear in the flesh, or a tale spun of fright?
Spring-heeled Jack, just a step out of sight.
[Verse 3]
The city holds secrets in alleys and stones,
Of creatures who walk where no light is shown.
But he leaps through the echoes, a whisper of black,
The city can’t hold the steps of Jack.
[Chorus]
A flicker of smoke, a memory undone (ahh...),
He dances with the night but hides from the sun.
The rooftops remember the curve of his flight,
Spring-heeled Jack, born from London’s twilight.
[Outro]
And when the mist settles, when the streets turn still,
Do we chase what we fear, or what we never will?
In the steps of Jack, forever untold,
A legend that lingers, in shadows grown cold.
Plans and Schemees (Live)
=========================
[Crowd Cheers]
[Intro - Spoken]
"Alright, London! This one’s called 'Plans and Schemes'—you know the words, sing it loud!"
[Crowd Cheers]
[Verse 1]
Got a million ideas, but none ever done,
Dreams stacked high, but they weigh a ton,
If I’d followed through on just a few,
I’d be living large with a golden view.
[Chorus - Lead Vocals & Crowd]
I’ve got plans, I’ve got schemes,
But they never turn into real things!
I’m a thinker, not a doer,
If I’d done half, I’d be a ruler!
[Verse 2]
Started this, started that,
But it all ends up falling flat,
If I had a quid for every plan,
I’d be richer than any man.
[Chorus - Crowd Sings]
(I’ve got plans, I’ve got schemes, hands in the air
But they never turn into real things!
I’m a thinker, not a doer,
If I’d done half, I’d be a ruler!)
[Verse 3]
Another bright idea, but no follow-through,
Got the vision, but it’s nothing new,
Could’ve built an empire, but I missed my chance,
Now I’m just stuck in this endless dance.
(Wow)
[Crowd Screem]
[Trombone Solo]
[Spoken]
Thats Reggie for you
[Crowd Respond]
[Spoken]
"Come on, give me more of that! Let’s hear you take it one more time!"
[Chorus - Crowd Sings]
(I’ve got plans, I’ve got schemes, Whoop
But they never turn into real things!
I’m a thinker, not a doer, Yeah
If I’d done half, I’d be a ruler!)Hey
