Oh, smack, there goes my baseball cap
I'm on the floor,
I think I took a bruse to my jaw,
Jumped me from behind at least three, maybe four,
I never see my hat no more.
Oh, smash. There goes my baseball cap,
It's gone, gone, gone, gone,
I can't get it back.
Oh, smack, (smack) there goes my baseball cap,
It's gone, gone, gone, gone,
I can't get it back.
14 years old and hard to the core,
I'm walking home making plans for war,
My hand was cut, my uncle says 'what's up?'
Let me guess, your clothes are in a mess, you're in distress,
Sit down, take five and let me look at your knees,
Your still alive son, please take it easy
Sometimes you have to let the world know you aint bluffing,
But enough is enough, don't lose your life over nothing,
Scuffling in the street is no way to die,
And I don't want to have to meet your mama's eye,
So try and listen hard before you fall into the trap
Of making war over a baseball cap.
Oh, smash, there goes my baseball cap,
It's gone, gone, gone, gone,
I can't get it back.
Oh, smack (smack), there goes my baseball cap,
It's gone, gone, gone, gone,
I can't get it back.
I sat back, had a think
Uncle poured a drink,
I had a little cry, my eyes started to blink
Coz what I heard from his word - sounds absurd, but I
Heard the love in his voice for me,
I had a thought, it was like, snap
What's a cap when I got somethin real like that?
I can measure it, treasure it,
And in my lesiure sit down with those who mean the most to me,
The baseball cap was a ghost, this is real to me
'You got steel son' my uncles' talkin,
Takes a champion to walk and keep walkin
Drink your drink, let the words sink in,
Say goodnight to your ma and think again.
So I took my fourteen years up to bed,
Everything he said takin root in my head,
I shed all my tears and let my fourteen years...
Oh, smash, there goes my baseball cap,
It's gone gone gone gone, I can't get it back.
Oh, smash, there goes my baseball cap,
It's gone gone gone gone, I can't get it back.
Oh, smash (smash), there goes my baseball cap,
It's gone gone gone gone, I can't get it back.
Oh,(oh) smash, (smash) there goes my baseball cap,
It's gone gone gone gone, I can't get it back. |
