Slow Down Lyrics
Year of Release: 2007
Hook x2
- It seems like certain people need to slow down
- Sit and zone out, but they don't know how
- They're burning loads of pounds
- But I'm in no doubt
- When the candle blow [?]
- It'll get blown out
Dr Syntax
- Can you really see Synners
- Getting down to some big-cheese business?
- Every month, holding more than three figures
- I've seen that scene
- And that scene seems vicious
- Keen-witted mean-spirits
- Fiending for riches, me
- I couldn't deal with it
- I'll sooner be seen swimming
- In deep rivers wearing concrete slippers
- It's wrong that I should feel privileged when
- Given a fleeting glimpse of free living once my weeks finished
- Maybe I'm one of those weak quitters
- But I can't work all day
- And only rest for fifteen minutes
- Eating TV dinners
- Steady trying to keep diligent
- Thinking of my annual beach visit
- So ask me what I'm doing instead, just
- Scooping a bit of bread and butter
- While pursuing interests
- And you might think I'm stupid
- As a foolish inbred
- Used to sittin' on a stoop
- With a group of pissheads
- But it's rare that my mood is intense
- Cuz I created a relaxing ambiance
- Without using incense
- So accuse me while using a pertruding index
- Cuz it's true that I'm a loser
- With his future in shreds
- But I produce a sick text
- When I use a Bic pen
- Something in me ticks
- Like a superhuman sixth sense
- Observing life through a thick lens
- Watching steadily
- Using time to rest
- Thus preserving my longevity

Mole
- It's Tuesday night, man
- I'm craving spliff and hot food
- But not more than pound a drink
- And shit pop tunes
- A lot lost to the work-drink work-drink
- Puzzled punters glugging jugs
- To make the words fit (What?)
- A [double] something always
- Tugging at the purse-strings
- And now they're sloppy 'round the edges
- Like a first kiss
- I'm not the worst; it's
- Just a casual pastime
- Nothing serious
- Just here to drink the bar dry
- Chuckle at our troubles as they shrink into the dark night
- Follow my reflection as it's sinking
- With my last pint
- We're on the brink of being
- Victims of the far right
- But can't resist because we're
- Twisted by this fast life
- I drifted in from last night
- Thinkin' how it's
- A little bit odd that we see time as a commodity
- When if a man was lost at sea
- Without a clock to read
- Imprisoned by his prophesy
- Allowing his return upon
- Accomplishment of odyssey
- He could quite possibly
- Arrive to find the hand had only moved from one to three
- Think about it logically
- Or don't if you're too busy
- But choose quickly
- Cuz pretty soon they'll be selling special
- Seconds of your life online for 2.50
- Who's with me?!
- Nah, I thought not
- Cuz then you'd have to slow down
- And if I'm really honest with you
- Then I couldn't go now
- Just leave with no sound
- Like this life was worth nothing;
- All possessions thrown down
- Possessions thrown down
- Possessions thrown down
- Possessions thrown down
- Possessions thrown down, down, down
