about

I'll never forget Melbourne...

lyrics

(CHORUS)


Back in the Day before anyone paid you,
remembering all the things your friends gave you
All the world can do is hate you or rate you
Even if you make it, remember who made you!


(#1)
Confused and irrational to Melbourne international I land
Despite having my whole life planned
Relationships at home were really getting out of hand
But I didn't come here just to bury my self in the sand
City Born, Country raised, Irish Arabian whinging pomme,
Pretty torn, always blazed, reknowned for hitting bongs
Now I've left the past behind me, I don't need you to remind me
Open mic is where you'll find me, time to get it on!
DAY 1: hit the city via tullamrine,
The most hip hop city I've ever been
The most SHIT HOT pretty girls that I've ever seen
But I'm busy on the sofa smoking St Kilda green.
My friend Ash doesn't wanna hear I'm missing my mrs
He gets me a job in the kitchen washes the dishes
So Ash, Lin, Eddy, from the bottom of my heart
I thank you for my last chance at a fresh start

(#2)
Ash and Linnie went travelling, now I'm on my own
And a CBD Backpackers is the place I call home
I barely recognize a single name in my new phone
And the one girl I did fuck won't leave me alone
She's skinny and hairy and needs a fella to stalk
She wants to Wine about her problems: I give her a cork
I'm chunky and English, she wants to cuddle and talk
"Your accent's so hot, aye"... " I'm off for a walk
With Flinders behind me and Viccy market ahead of me,
Any rapper I meet on Elizabeth street is in Jeopardy,
Hoping that the mic is open baby well it better be
Working on my craft until I'm in a different Pedigree
Raised by Rocky Balboa and Hulk Hogan,
Joe Seth, Seth Green, Call me Seth Rogan
Hit the Fan assassin put the Showtime in Shogan
Flows so stinky put the B.O in Bogan

(#3)
Zero tolerence for Bullshit, consistantly candid
Re-Branded leaving my old world dispanded,
The Big Man has landed, leaving myself stranded
You wouldn't believe opportunities I've been handed
People that I met and all the places I've been shown
My net-worth: Nothing! My network has grown
Zulu took me off the street and gave me a home
A place to work, rest, and play and call my own
MoneyKat's Joe Kim he was down for the cause
Puttin me in touch with Lotek, now I'm playing at falls
Every D&B Promoter got me tearing down the walls
Flying round the country always perform on these tours
Gig here, gig there, low pay that's fine
All I really wanted was a partner in crime
I got Daily on the beats and I got music on my mind
Hit the Fan where it hurts son, ready for the grind

(Bridge)

Thank You Melbourne, for being so good to me,
For letting me ride your trams for free,
For letting me be who I needed to be
Giving me so many lovely ladies to see!
Fuck Melbourne, say it aint so,
In a few short weeks I'm afraid I have to go
Fuck Melbourne, you saved my soul
In a million more ways than you'll ever know, so...
