| I’m basking in the sunlight, hi-hat sizzling
|
| Snare cracking like it’s blasting in a gun fight
|
| The pattern of the drum’s tight, kick pumping in your stomach
|
| Something like the aftermath of a drunk night
|
| Daft cunt, see I like music that has spunk
|
| Thrash, pop, rap, punk, drazz-wop, jazz, funk
|
| I’m beginning a vinyl collection
|
| Thinking of buying all the decks and equipment then hitting the nightlife with
|
| a vengeance
|
| But I’ve got a penchant for sitting in silence
|
| Headphones hugging my noggin, I’m nodding my head to the said tones
|
| I might be flesh and bones, but when I do a verse
|
| My vibrations disperse through the universe
|
| We can see the frequency, percieve them through the channels
|
| I need a deeper feeling please, leave me with the ammo
|
| White noise, clean my teeth, weaken the enamel
|
| Street life’s a squeeze like a needle to a camel
|
| Please, I would leave in peace, retreating with the mammals
|
| While leaves of trees are green at least, creeping in my camo
|
| But a bee could see through these with ease, keys of a piano
|
| Basked in light from black to white, from BC to Anno

|
| There’s no questioning Ben as an artist
|
| My musical palette’s not like yours
|
| So the same brush I’ll never be tarred with
|
| I’m a sucker for a Hendrix guitar lick
|
| But not a purist though, Kendrick Lamar’s sick
|
| Mate, head to the bar quick
|
| And fetch me a large drink
|
| I’m ready to get this cigar lit
|
| Beer garden, start a party for the neighbours like
|
| No sympathy, Marley and the Wailers, and Bacardi with a chaser
|
| It’s getting late so it’s time to slip something a little harder in the shaker
|
| Bit of Marvin on the playlist, then The Temptations
|
| Followed by Smokey Robinson, we marvel at the greatness
|
| I’m Syd Barrett on Interstellar Overdrive
|
| I’m John Bonham in a hotel on a motorbike
|
| I’m Ray Davies on a sunny afternoon
|
| I’m Ian Curtis, I’m John Lennon, Bob Dylan and Keith Moon
|
| Music helped me get through all I’ve been through
|
| When just me, you, and the beat loop, how can I feel blue?
|
| I’ve got videos and photographs if you need proof
|
| I’ve lived, though I gave my plot away in the theme tune
|
| Beit Nun up in your iPod docking station
|
| Feel free to get up and leave if you’re not relating
|
| But if you are, take a seat, I’m down for the long awaited conversation
|
| Two bonding strangers have when they’re off their faces
|
