Lyrics to my song;
*The parts in brackets which are bold; (example) is where I am analysing the lyrics.
The parts in purple are conventions of a Hip-Hop song
Its ok,
Im good,
Lets Go!
Yeah (yeah) we bring the stars out,
We bring the women and the cars and the cards out, - (people come to see him all the time mainly women)
Lets have a toast a celebration get a glass out,
And we can do this until we pass out.
(so) Let it rain,
Let it pour away,
We wont come down,
Until we hit the ground and pass out!
Yeah (i) yeah, im in charge now,
Im a star and I bought my fucking cast out,
I live a very very very wild lifestyle,
Heidi and Audrina eat your heart out, - (referring to Heidi Montag and Audrina Patridge)
I used to listen to you dont wanna bring arms house - (“You don’t wanna bring arms house” refers to the signature bars of N.A.S.T.Y Crew M.C. Demon, most famously used on Lethal Bizzle’s 2004 anthem Pow)
I got so many clothes I keeps em in ma aunts house,
Disturbing London baby we about to branch out, - (disturbing London is Tinie Tempah and Chiddy Bangs record label and he is basically saying they are going to become bigger and better)
Soon ill be the king like Prince Charles Child, Yeah! - (He's the next King of the music industry)
Yeah, yeah and there aint nobody fresher
Semester to semester, ravin with the freshers - (performing for colleges and freshers)
20 light bulbs around my table and my dresser
ClC Kompressor, just in case that dont impress her - (Mercedes car to impress her)
Say hello to dexter, say hello to uncle fester - (Dexter could be the cartoon characters and Uncle Fester is out of the Adams family)
Got them gazing at my necklace and my crazy sun protectors - (Blingg)
G-Shocks I got a crazy don collection - (fancy watches, saying he has loads)
Haters, I cant fuckin hear your reception
Yeah (yeah) we bring the stars out,
We bring the women and the cars and the cards out,
Lets have a toast a celebration get a glass out,
And we can do this until we pass out.
(so) Let it rain,
Let it pour away,
We wont come down,
Until we hit the ground and pass out!
This shit was meant to last me 24 hrs man
Yeah, They say hello, they say ola and they say bonjour, - (talking to all of his fans shows he is not just famous in the UK)
Im pissed I never got to fly on a concord, - (NY to London in 30 minutes)
I bin Southampton but ive never bin to Scunthorpe, - (Southampton is a small town in the UK)
Im fucking crazy with the kicks, call me Jean Claude, - ("kicks" could refer to his shoes and Jean Claude could relate to his obsession with shoes)
About to be a bigger star than my mum thought, - (his Mum must have though his music career would not kick off, like it did. Well it is hard to believe your son will be a massive music artist in Europe)
Cos every day I got a groupie at my front door, - (Tinie Tempah’s got girls coming to him)
Now I drive past the bus I used to run for, - (he does not need the bus any more, he can afford fast cars to drive past them)
Wheres my fucking clap, wheres my encore? - (he wants to be praised for his success)
I walk alone, cos I was born alone,
I chirps her just for fun, I never ever call her phone, - (chirps means to chat up some one, he says he chats her up just for fun, gets her number and does not call her)
I leave her in the club, I never ever walk her home, - (He is not a gentleman)
DL the fkin foundation, im the cornerstone, - (The label Disturbing London is the building blocks for British Hip-Hop to take off worldwide and that he is the ‘cornerstone’ artist who is most important to the label)
Im born famous,
Im sorta known, - (Everyone knew him from day one)
If your son doesnt,
I bet your Daughter knows, - (All the girls know him)
Check out my visual, checkout my audio,
Extra ordinary, yo, hope you enjoyed the show,
Yeahhhhh (yeah) we bring the stars out,
We bring the women and the cars and the cards out, - (Credit cards in the bar to pay for all the drinks and champagne)
Lets have a toast a celebration get a glass out,
And we can do this until we pass out.
(so) Let it rain,
Let it pour away,
We wont come down,
Until we hit the ground and pass out!
Woh ho, woh ho ho (etc)
Uh, Look at me I been a cheeky bastard, Manim,
Look at all the drama we started, Nowim
In here layin on my back, sayin DJ wont ya gimmie one more track
[insert drum and bass riddims]
Ill Apologise For Tonight, Tomorrow Morning (repeated during d&b)
(so) Let it rain,
Let it pour away,
We wont come down,
Until we hit the ground and pass out!
(so) Let it rain,
Let it pour away,
We wont come down,
Until we hit the ground and pass out!
Pass out (echo)
Pass out (echo)
Passs outttt !

he also talks about cars and champagne (toast, glass out) – classic hip hop conventions
