KEEP IT GOING ON

Once again, as I break it down

This is not a phase or a fad; walk with a pen and a pad

Everywhere that I go I see them looking

Give your mouth a rest, watch when I'm cooking

Smoking, never no joking, hoping

For the very best, so don't bother provoking

Me 'cause you don't want me losing' my temper

Remember back in '89 in November

I drank a can of Lucazade and then hit 'em

Call me the lyrical now you know the rhythm

Quick as a flash, make the cash if you can

You be the man, let the woman be the woman

Some say I'm true, honest and humble

Three or four minutes and I'm ready to rumble

Come on, let's go, get up off my case

Stay the hell away from my face, you and your ways

It’s all in the way that you portray it

Hat’s on your mind, you got to say it

Instead of the fuckrie, here’s a little taster

I can’t stand around with the time waster

Telling me garbage, I’m sick of the garbage so

Check out the styling

Drugs I never touch, smokes I never touch

To those who bought my records I say thank you very much

I don’t quit no, never never quit no

Take no shit no, hate the techno

‘Cause I’m deep into my rap music and

Not like the coke you sniff and abuse it's

Never the secret, I had to keep from them

Beat the drums, play the saxophone and then

Go get it pressed and then put it on vinyl

Go for the final and maybe your time'll

Be here sooner than you think but anyhow

Some of them rush and they claim they're ready now

So if you wanna go on and take the big step

Go ahead, but watch you don't break your neck and heck

Me I'm through with the waiting

For the other brother to get his act together so I'd rather

Get it going' on and on all alone

Work the finger to the bone

It's all about who you know, what you know, where you go

Where you're from, that's why you'll never catch me at the proms

Stick to the plan I need a helping hand from the bass man

Learn the tricks of the trade and wait years to get paid

I'm not a slave to the trade

Check out the styling

We're making progress, I'm the hell raiser

Raise my voice and go crazy like Frazer

Strength to strength I got the knack to get 'em back

(Where's the LP) leave me alone jack

Cut the crap and go keep your distance

(1 2 3) take it for instance

I'm just the one who they call the headstrong

(Keep it going on, keep it going on)

Watch you don't slip, watch you don't slip, watch you don't slip

(And let's take a trip)

Back in the days they used to call me the wild child

I got my style, you got your style

Work a little harder, stop the gang-banging

(Head-banging) see when I'm hanging

Down at the station, people are passing me

You can't buy me, you ain't having me

It's elementary, ever so simple

Young, free, gifted, single

That's how it's gonna be for years to come friend

Till you talk sense, here's what I recommend

Look at the facts and the way that he acts and

(Put him on tracks) but don't break your backs and

Dig a little deeper, go on and read your books

(He don't move with the crooks)

Yeah check out the styling
