about

Inspired by Rumplestiltskin as retold by the Brothers Grimm.

lyrics

Picture this my old dad exists to get lit
Which causes shit
He's a liability and he's a risk when he's pissed
So one night he's twisted sits next to Chris
Aka the Wolf the gangland boss who's known for stealing kids
This is it this is where it all begins
I admit it was his ego on a trip he was talking shit
He goes my daughter can flip any counterfeit to legit
Give her Monopoly money she'll account it into quids
Now my ex was into fraud but me I never did partake
I can't turn straw to gold
I'm just eighteen and a half mate
My dad he knew this but was impressing the bar maid
While our resident hard case disconnected his car brakes
Next thing I know two henchmen snatched me out of my aunts place
They carried me far away dragging me till my arms ached
Waving a large blade saying listen
By half eight in the morning we want twenty Gs that look like they aren't fake
Shit I can't do that!
I felt so crazy I could vomit
I tried to tell them honest there's a baby in my stomach
But they listened and laughed left me alone with my harsh fate
Will this be my last day
I could do with some Class A!

Then I heard a whispering coming through the bars saying

Oi girl
I got an offer
A proposition for ya
I know your position and I wouldn't wish it on ya
I can do the job before the sky at night turns dawn
And all you have to do is hand me over your first born

Oh lord
My first born seven months away
What a terrible price to pay
Who the hell is this guy to say
He wants the one thing in the world I can't sell but I'll find a way
To try and play otherwise we'll invariably die today
It hurt to say at first worst day on this earth
Okay I give my word!
Then this crackhead started chirping like a bird
His apparel and demeanour were most certainly absurd
But he dropped in through the skylight and starts working undeterred
I must have been completely shattered as my vision slowly blurred
When I woke I was alone but still imprisoned then I heard
Heavy footsteps and a voice saying Magnificent my girl!
I see you've done the job we asked for now your liberty's returned
He'd only gone and done it
The moody cash was piled large and I was freed
Afterwards it seemed I'd finally got a chance to be at peace
My baby girl arrived
I held her in my arms just like a dream
Until the day I heard this message on my answering machine

Are you taking the piss?
Did you think you'd get away with this shit?
I know the estate where you live
And Im'a raid your crib like the Bay of Pigs
Guess what my name is or I'm taking your kid
Bitch
You're tongue tied like a shoe lace
Now its too late you better pack a suit case
And move to a new place look at the trouble you make
You've got a screw face
You can run you cunt but Ill be there on the due date
In a few days knocking at your door
With a warrant like your'e wanted by the law
Rotten to the core
Clinically insane bringing misery and pain
You're tripping if you're thinking that I'm giving you my name
Isn't it a shame?
Bought a ticket to Italy and Spain
For your kid coz her virginity be critically acclaimed
So get to the spot at 7 o'clock or you're gonna end up buried in a box
What

So that's the game is it
I've been visited by insane spirits
I asked around but nobody knows his name is it
Tom Jack Jimmy Bob
Mustafa or little John
Kayden Hayden Chris or Dom
This is getting flipping long

Then one night down the pub a trusted friend of my nan claimed
She overheard chat saying Rumplestiltskins the mans name
Okay then in that case I'll go on with this damn game
And meet him in the forest no prolonging his campaign
Well
I did some digging
Spoke to my uncle William
He knows the London villains and gave me a gun to kill him
Although he took some convincing
I ain't a dumb civilian
They ain't finding him until he's mouldy as a chunk of Stilton
Travelled to the spot and saw him waiting by the sunk pavilion
This scum reptilian who loiters beside the front of buildings
After school he comes for children
Steals them from their mums instills them
Full of fear fuck it
I might give this guy a ruptured philtrum
I stared ahead as I offered him a ton to chill and
He grinned and said I wouldn't stop this for a hundred million
You made a bargain with your baby if it's unfulfilled then
You might get an uninvited visit from someone Sicilian
That's when I smiled and replied hang on
Heres one opinion
As to what your name is if it's right your blood will run vermilion
Now what would a mother call this ugly and disgruntled pilgrim
Ah, that's fucking brilliant
Your name is Rumplestiltskin
