Goldie Lookin Chain - Newport (Ymerodraeth State Of Mind) Lyrics






Yeah I'm up at Ridgeway
Now I'm down the Moorings, right next to the Debenhams
And I'll be Port forever
Yes it is my lifeblood
These streets they are a part of me
The yin to my yang
The Craig to my Bellamy
Catch me in the kitchen
I've got cheese I'm melting it
Caerphilly, bread and ham
Hey presto it's a Rarebit
Head out to Caerleon
Off-white transit
Febreeze on the dash for the strain where my nan sits
Out for the big one, sniffin' on the miaow miaow
DJ on the ones and twos, spinnin' Little Bow Wow
On the dancefloor raving, pack of 16 Benson
Someone fighting bouncers...turns out it's Gavin Henson
Big up to Plaid Cymru, and the Welsh Assembly
Big up to Millennium: we don't need no Wembley
Keep your Big Apple...
We'll have a tangerine
Bugger of Alicia, Shirley Bassey is our queen
Round here we stick together
Like birds of a feather...
Except we're not from Chigwell...
We're from the small Welsh town of...

Newport
Concrete jumble, nothing in order
Not far from the border....
When you're in Newport
Chips, cheese, curry makes you feel brand new
Washed down with a Special Brew
Repeat the word Newport, Newport, Newport

Catch me at Gwent Dragons in my fleece
Watching real sport
Shit, I make the Dragons' fleece more famous
Than the Argonauts
And now that I've made it here I can make it anywhere
Signed a girl's baubles when I headlined at the local fair
Yeah know the D to the V to the LA
Dad said "Get a job with them ," but Swansea's too far away
So look me up on Google -- I'm seven pages in
Was in the local paper, Mam threw it in the bin
She didn't see the article calling me a rap star
Ripped it into pieces, and used it for the hamster
Tom Jones, Steve Jones, Zeta Jones, traffic cones
If you come and visit use the Designated Parking Zones
There's a snooker hall, see
But I'm not a member...
And a lovely shopping centre opened in December
So head over the water
On the transporter
Fifty for the toll booth
Male Voice Choir singing out...

Newport
Twinned with Guangxi, Province in China
There's no province finer
Josie D'Arby's from Newport
Yes, it's strange, we didn't know either...
Thank you Wikipedia
Let's say some more Newport, Newport, Newport

One hand in the air for a taxi
Fifty quid if you're sick on the back seat
But all those bendy roads make me queasy...
Can someone hold my hair?
Everybody say...
Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwlll­lantysiliogogogoch
Newport...
Access from the A4042
Traffic will enrage you
On your way to Newport
Our shopping centre is quite new
Big leaks will inspire you
Repeat to fade Newport, Newport, Newport"

    The X15: 18 miles in 1¾ hours. Absolutely mind bending, probably the only song that'll ever mention it.

  2. F.... B....

    cheese on chips, medievil ships, mattresses in skips, thens comes takes a trips

  3. M.... H....

    One time I was drunk as fuck in Portland Oregon, USA in like 2007. I smoked some grass which I usually don't do because it makes me nuts. Before it all went bad I impressed my good friend's newish girlfriend by yelling

    SEXY LADIES YOU WANNA MAKE BABIES!
    I'M THE DOG; YOU'RE THE RABIES!
    THE PAPER TO MY PEN YOU'RE THE INK IN MY WELL.
    LIKE AL-an tishshams- AND MY FUCKING -cambtrel-!
    YOU ALWAYS WIPE MY ASS WHEN I EMPTY MY BOWEL!
    AND WHEN IT COMES TO OTHER LADIES THEY JUST THROW IN THE TOWEL.
    I DON'T COMPLAIN! CAUSE I LOVE YOU TOO MUCH
    _and that fucking ankel bracelet is a beautiful touch_
    AH!

    I attributed the work to GLC and I think that added to how cool it was that I could say that. Still no clue if she figured out who GLC was later.

    I guess all I'm saying is that I just heard this track today and it's possible y'all haven't heard all our echos back all the time. Y'all are pioneers and I love you. Couldn't find a Dragon Taxi so I had to make my own out of duct tape and spent nunchucks.

  4. R.... B....

    its weird thinking ive walked past half of you in town and i dont know who

  41. s.... o....

    hey guys any people from bettws here

  42. m.... ....

    This is OK, but it lacks the humour of the original parody, regardless of whether they are from Newport.

    m.... ....

    I got the impression they were just pissed that somebody was “nicking their act”.

  43. M.... N....

  53. C.... T....

    Never been Newport but been Cardiff city

  54. R.... R....

    If you're going to make a diss track, at least make it better than the track you're dissing! So what if they're not from Newport, their song is funny, unlike this.

  55. L.... E....

    I’m so confused sksk he kept calling it a town but Newport’s a city?

  56. M.... L....

    I know its 8 years late, but have to say...cracking good vid guys!! C'est bon.

  57. T.... G....

    GLC KYMRY

  58. k.... ....

    For context on the "you're not from Newport, you've probably never been there either" line, as many are commenting on it: this song was a response to a parody of "empire state of mind" (which also replaced New York with Newport) which two cheesy welsh radio DJs made - they used Newport in the chorus but the majority of the references used otherwise were Cardiff based which angered the GLC. They also ripped off the GLC style of delivery so this song is a direct response to those radio DJs and that initial ham fisted and unfunny parody.

  59. V.... E....
