When it rains it pours
Lyrics by Matt Davies
Produced at artist studios with Ben Woodward (Bristol)
Translations in (Brackets) Spanish to English
Bienvenida a Bristol, (welcome to Bristol)
My rapping is pure old skool,
I’m the personification of cool,
Come closer Senoritta, (unmarried woman)
let’s take a dip in the pool,
You have that pink bikini on,
You’ve got the looks, I’ve got the brawn,
Welcome to Bristol, where’s the sun gone, C’mon,
It’s wet again, come closer mary jane,
Let’s take a ride on my private plane,
Where shall we go?
The Caribbean, Majorca, Tenerife?
Ahhh grieve, too many choices,
We’re in the Caribbean, Rejoice!
Crack open the champagne,
Let’s get away from the rain,
Chorus:
Let’s leave Bristol,
When it rains it pours,
Wait there we go again,
Another downpour,
Let’s go back indoors,
I’ll watch footie,
You can do the chores.
This is getting repetitive,
Staying dry is the objective,
What’s the weather forecast?
Rain, storms and lightning,
There goes a bolt, Ka Zam,
Bam, Bam, Bam, it is quite frightening,
I’ve just had an epiphany, and it is enlightening,
God created the earth in six days,
It’s the earth we inherited, let’s give him some praise,
God I hate Mondays,
I just wanna kick-back and enjoy a subways,
I’ll have a foot-long, Italian bread, with tuna,
I’ll have it sooner, rather than later,
So after my sandwich, I called over the head waiter,
He spoke Spanish, so I asked a translator,
He said ¿disfrutaste eso? (did you enjoy that?)
So I replyed, estaba delicioso! (it was delicious)
I said I loved the bread dough,
Then I cheekily added, what’s for desert? A gateau?
Chorus:
Let’s leave Bristol,
When it rains it pours,
Wait there we go again,
Another downpour,
Let’s go back indoors,
I’ll watch footie,
You can do the chores.
Have you seen the film Superbad?
I’m 28 and I still get asked for I.D.
Don’t you know who I am? I’m M.D.
A real O.G., an original gangster,
Otherwise known as a prankster,
Mclovin is the name Fogal uses,
Like he said, ‘it was either that or Mohammed’,
Some would say he had a stroke of genius,
And he got his liquor with no fuss,
Apart from the hot-fuss,
But the dumb cops brought his act,
And as a matter of fact,
He isn’t 25, let alone 21,
But he was on a one-way street to getting laid,
Back to the topic of the song, I need to get paid,
We’re in Bristol, where it doesn’t stop raining,
You’re my childhood sweetheart, we should never part,
You’ve got the arrow, don’t penetrate my heart!!!
Chorus:
Let’s leave Bristol,
When it rains it pours,
Wait there we go again,
Another downpour,
Let’s go back indoors,
I’ll watch footie,
You can do the chores.
