This is London

Mensa in the house where I'm at

Yo, yo

Check this

One off the tracks, gone down the sideroad

Met a green man under the alcove

Did a one mile walk past Bruce Grove

Stay strong in the defense like Steve Bould

Went loco

Lost my bearings

Dropped my limp and one of my earrings

Still managed to live on a shoestring

Still managed to live

It wasn't easy growing up

I wasn't even allowed to show love

Teachers don't know why I showed up

Many people I know just gave up

I am a gamer

Park life full time entertainer

You can have me

Pay the retainer

This is labor

And I'm past giving too much for favor

I'm this month's flavor

Look, mint, look, mint

I'm in the mood for, I'm in the mood for

Look, mint, look, mint

I'm in the mood for for

I'm a loner

Ex-stoner

Cleaned up now I'm hot like solar

I can see things clear like sonar

Girl next door looks like Sonya

Eastender

Not a pretender

I've been east since I can remember

Before cool kids had their agenda

I was boss in all its splendor

Who am I kiddin'?

It was a hell hole

Murder more plus north and south

Palace Pavilion, Powell Video

Clapton heart and forgot about chimes though

Street corner

Look out for po-po

Five to one, way to go ratio

Before Dizzy blew up the radio

I saw all this outside my window

I see what they think, what they think, what they think

Diamond won't go

I got some good love

Look, mint, look, mint

I'm in the mood for, I'm in the mood for

Look, mint, look, mint

I'm in the mood for, I'm in the mood for

I'm in the mood for, I'm in the mood for

I'm in the mood for

Check this, yo, yo

This is London

This is my home

I be lost if I didn't have my phone

Head down on the tube, big headphones

Travel card for the one, two, three zones

You see miserable, I see character

Everyone's got a story to tell ya

Usually when they're drunk they might hate ya

All night like they thought he was Oprah

Don't get it twisted

I'm conflicted

Don't pay rent might get evicted

Don't park where parking's restricted

Might clamp it, might get it lifted

I addicted, I'm a Londoner

Half polite, half pitbull terrier

I'm a new breed breaking down barriers

In the spotlight and in the cameras
