[Verse 1]
I met this girl just last week, I said her signs gone red like a penny suite, yeah
She stay put in my mind
Here eyes roll back ‘cause she never sleep, no
Up to the street with the cheap, peep show
People who caught me call me knee deep, though
But if so I’ll be ready to jump off
But haven't got a validated ticket for the next stop
[Pre-Chorus]
I take a step on the platform
I get back from the closed doors
There’s no escape from it
Because I’m-
[Chorus]
Underground
Where the girls eat you for breakfast
And the boys will snatch your necklace off
Buy it in a shop, it won’t stop
Underground
Where the scum score lines like Tetris
And you’ll find less funds in checkbooks
It’s all full of respect but don’t wanna slip and break your neck in the underground
[Verse 2]
I saw this man in the pimp-stripped suit
He had a faulty London blackberry paper to boot
It’s not about the free time, it’s all about the business
He’s taking it all in ‘cause the moneys on his wish list
Black hair, black suit, black tie, no slick
High roller, haven’t seen at all like diet cola
I think we’re from opposite scenes
Cause he’s looking at me like I’m some kind of freak
And he’s shuffling away to the next empty seat
[Pre-Chorus]
I take a step on the platform
I get back from the closed doors
There’s no escape from it
Because I’m-
[Chorus]
Underground
Where the girls eat you for breakfast
And the boys will snatch your necklace off
Buy it in a shop, it won’t stop
Underground
Where the scum score lines like Tetris
And you’ll find less funds in checkbooks
It’s all full of respect but don’t wanna slip and break your neck in the underground
[Verse 3: Cover of “Welcome To Jamrock” by Damian Marley]
Welcome to Jamrock Camp whe' the thugs dem camp at
Two pound a weed inna van back It inna yuh hand bag, yuh nap sack It inna yuh back pack
The smell a give yah girlfriend contact Some bwoy nuh know dis
Dem only come around like tourist
On the beach with a few club sodas
Bedtime stories, and pose like dem name Chuck Norris And don't know the real hardcore
'Cause Sandals ah no
"Back-To" Di thugs dem wi' do whe' dem got to And won't think twice to shot you Don't mek dem spot you, unless you carry guns a lot too
