Ah, what was the question, oh yeah, Memento Mori It means remember it's inevitable that we will all die It sounds quite depressing when said so raw and direct But it means don't hang yourself on a material lifeBut that gets dropped when I'm bop on shopping day Am I shallow, am i hung up on such wrong ways Yes I am shallow and loving every wrong play If love is blind then why do we all buy lingerieI've got nothing in my life Away from the studio So when I'm loose I end up consuming doughMemento Mori, Memento Mori It's Latin and it says we must all die I tried it for a while but it's a load of boring shit So I buy buy buyIf I start to think of life I have prangs of paranoia Pull one stripey shirt off a racks or another Overthink my fate grasping a pastel jumper Panic buy a flight home, prang though actually soberChange my mind and fly back into Vegas Buy more pastel shades and some famous labels Frame the Ferrari through the day with the Mayhem Just to forget about the race in my headI don't really care About the luck and the look But driving a Ferrari Is fucking a bookMemento Mori, Memento Mori It's Latin and it says we must all die I tried it for a while but it's a load of boring shit So I buy buy buyI think if I could see me now from my growing past I'd hate the shirted cunt that seems to be so fucking flash I reckon from the threads, I think all I think's about cash But my manager tells me, I ought to think about cashIt's like people don't know the eighties started My car just keeps carding with the card machine You don't regard the old you, driving a Ferrari Mine's the driving license through Nevada at speedI never think about money In fact I have no idea How much money I haveMemento Mori, Memento Mori It's Latin and it says we must all die I tried it for a while but it's a load of boring shit So I buy buy buyChilly 'n Carmen air sips as I'm parting her hair But I'm an asbo drinker I want to be chilly parkair But asbo drinkers just don't dig my art and my flair Even if they dig my asbo driving, past their carlight flairSometimes when I buy my diamond trinkets with my whores I know I've strayed a bit from my old sins and my walks But then I laugh out loud that my car still fucking talks I feel awful for a bit but at least, I'm not poor
Это интересно:Автора, идеолога и единственного участника проекта The Streets зовут Майк Скиннер. Приехав в Лондон из затрапезного Бирмингема (местных жителей принято называть "брамми" за их замысловатый акцент; например название своего города они произносят как Браммиджем – отсюда и кличка), он взялся за дело с присущим большинству провинциалов рвением и оказался самым востребованным на сегодня... продолжение
