Streets, The - It Was Supposed To Be So Easy Lyrics






It was supposed to be so easy
Just take back the DVD, withdraw that extra money
Tell mum I wouldn't be back for tea, then grab my savings and hurry
So first to get the film back in time, to avoid that big fine
I had to do a fast hill climb, but a faster decline
But I flew a bit quick, arms like a lunatic
Had to stop for a few ticks, I started feeling sick
Got to the video shop in a state, but chuffed it wouldn't be late
Only when he flicked open the case, I'd left the disc at my place
Today I've achieved absolutely nought
In just being out of the house, I've lost out
If I wanted to end up with more now
I should've just stayed in bed, like I know how
So I failed on the DVD, but I still had to get the money
Tell mum I couldn't make tea, get the saving and then hurry
Rushing to the cash machine, still a bit mashed and lean
Then of course a mandatory car, drives by and splashes me
Get there the queue's outrageous, ladies taking ages
My rage is blowing gauges, how longs it take to validate your wages?
At last my turn comes, press the 50 squid button
Insufficient funds
Today I've achieved absolutely nought
In just being out of the house, I've lost out
If I wanted to end up with more now
I should've just stayed in bed, like I know how
So I failed on the DVD, couldn't withdraw any money
But I still had to call mum, get the savings and hurry
So to call mum so that, I could tell her I cant go and that
At least I remembered my phone man, I didn't know her number offhand
Where's my phone have I got it, Oh this is a crock of shit
I lost the fucking thing, oh here it is in my pocket
But the batteries nearly flat, gotta call quick snap
Aww shit, the battery is flat
Today I've achieved absolutely nought
In just being out of the house, I've lost out
If I wanted to end up with more now
I should've just stayed in bed, like I know how
So Ive failed on the DVD, couldnt withdraw any money
Or call mum about tea, I'll have to get the savings and hurry
But where was the money, I knew I'd left it on the
Side, next to the telly, this is not even funny
I left it in the living room, ready to pick up as soon
As I passed through, on the way out to the rendevous
So the shoebox full of money, just disappearing from me
Is not what I call funny, a grand dont come for free
Today I've achieved absolutely nought
In just being out of the house, I've lost out
If I wanted to end up with more now
I should've just stayed in bed, like I know how

(Oi, soaked to the bone in my jeans, do you want me to stop?
I imagine my mums weaping right now
And the thousand pounds you swore, that I left on the table this morn
Has simply disappeared before my eyes, his eyes and yours
And I'm a thousand pounds poorer, a hundred thousand pennies, no more
A thousandth of a million quid, or two monkeys or a whole fifty scores
Gone withdrawn from my life, the money is no more for sure)
It was supposed to be so easy

  2. H.... B....

  4. H.... B....

  15. R.... C....

    Describes my day today.

  16. j.... ....

    I think this is what you get from a fan video. Skinner could have been more abstract and artistic... this guy didn't have the artistic liberty. I really like this album, and this video, while obvious, made the story come to life for me, so I appreciate it.

  17. M.... O....

    The vocal harmonies are fucking terrible agreed, but US rap is very much manufactured and also really boring, bitches, crack, dope, etc. US rap is about trying to look hard, at least the lyrical content in this song is about something everyone can relate to.

  18. B.... ....

    so he calls 999? nice one haha

  19. J.... W....

    The TV is wrong, if you listen to the whole album he loses his savings and then finds them stuck in the back of the TV...

  20. C.... ....

    what a dick

  21. B.... M....

    victim you kid ahahahaha

  22. J.... D....

    @rko123jja well it was supposed to be :D (so easy!)

  23. o.... l....

    doesn't hold justice to the song, if this is what you like doing, try a bit harder, great idea though

    i like it funny

  31. s.... p....

    @willmcc spot on mate, love the album :P

  32. e.... ....

    nice vid

  33. o.... ....

    @littleleicesterfox I completely agree with you there. Lil Wayne sucks since all he sings about is weed, money, and drugs, but his songs are entertaining to listen to every now and then. If you want real rappers who rap about life then check out Eminem and Immortal Technique.

  34. o.... ....

    @dayday980189 No, it wasn't. It might have been good in the UK(I'm assuming that's where you're from) but this is crap in the US. And if you have heard American rappers and still think this is up to par, then you have a unique taste of music.

  35. R.... P....

    @dayday980189 teddington? where the fuck is that? i complimented your vid. you cant help having an annoying face. the mullet however, is avoidable.

  36. d.... ....

    @oVNiiTeMaReVo Grow up with your pathetic lmfao shit. It was a good video.

  37. o.... ....
