Tricky - Ghetto Stars Lyrics






[Francesca:]
Have a look at trick down
To see my baby
You been locked in a cell
Standing south on the street
Hard to look though the bars
You don't look well
Shots keep ringin'
Still no presence
To accommodate our hardcore loves
This my love come get in line
Before they comes home with thugs

[Tricky & Francesca:]
Ghetto stars don't go far
Ghetto traps, locked behind bars
Don't you worry keeps your hurry
The ghetto's know that you don't deserve

[Tricky:]
My blood is in it
I never try to reason
My cousin Norman
But the car case he's runnin'
My family's gringo
So I try to sing yo
Writing these efforts
While my nan plays the bingo
My scene is just a habit
Try to chase a rabbit
My family of gringo's
Break in though the windows
I need some new clothes
Shiny new wheel wells
Kickers and teeth now
We had a big sack
I really love my family
They probably never planned me
My family's gringo
So I try to sing yo

[Tricky & Francesca:]
Ghetto stars don't go far
Ghetto traps, locked behind bars
Don't you worry keeps your hurry
The ghetto knows that you don't deserve

[Francesca:]
Have a look trick down
To see my baby he'd been locked in cell
Singing songs to my sweetheart though the bars
He don't look well

Shots keep ringin'
Still no presence
To accommodate our hardcore loves
This my love come get in line
Before they comes home with thugs

[Tricky & Francesca:]
Ghetto stars don't go far
Ghetto traps, locked behind bars
Don't you worry keeps your hurry
The ghetto's know that you don't deserve

Ghetto stars don't go far
Ghetto traps, locked behind bars
Don't you worry keeps your hurry
The ghetto's know that you don't deserve

Ghetto stars don't go far
Ghetto traps, locked behind bars
Don't you worry keeps your hurry
The ghetto's know that you don't deserve

[Tricky:]
Ghetto stars don't go far...

    Are you ignorant enough to believe Tricky isn't from a ghetto in Bristol? Maybe the statement he is making with this song and video are LOST to most. Maybe because you don't understand him. It's all poetry. Whatever genre you need to box it in. He isn't trying to "be"a rapper. He is rapping. Difference! He isn't "acting" ghetto or thug- he is showing how this life is and tongue in cheek with the super star rappers. Not giving a drop of sweat for the mega bucks they swim in.

  24. C.... W....

    Clearly you were highly intoxicated and stoned when you typed that...................calm down buddy

  25. r.... r....

    This songs about the mongrel mob. No joke watch the news report

  26. G.... ....

    what's so smart about it???i mean sure i like it.im a hip hop head.but fuck you and everybody who liked your comment...fuck all of you!!!hip hop is a culture.trip hop is a music genre...shut the fuck up faggot

  27. d.... ....

    This is trip-hop and not hip-hop but don't insult hip-hop; people who make comments like that are the ones who don't listen to alot of hip hop

  28. C.... N....

    This cunts music is good how ever as a rapper he is totally shit.....

  29. L.... Z....

    lol my dad at 3:37 and my granddad at the beginning Freddie Foreman

  30. K.... M....

    K.... M....

    This is only 4 years late but did you get those lyrics yet?

  31. c.... ....

  32. i.... ....

    This music, is cultural music.

  33. J.... M....

  35. S.... H....

  36. c.... l....

    This is garbage. Most of the dumbfucks here need to go back to school and learn ENGLISH! Real thugs and gangsters don't use the internet, so stop the act you fucking posers.

  37. H.... D....

    tricky is the best!!!! i love his music

  38. s.... ....

  39. M.... R....

    I really wish there were more artists like Tricky. He is truly amazing and so unique it's unbelievable. 3

  40. C.... B....

    woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  41. R.... ....

    what the fak

  42. M.... ....

    WOW!!! UNIVERSE!

  43. x.... ....

    this is trip hop

  44. B.... B....

    @turus22 Huh? A looped drum track. Dub reggae bass. Orchestral strings. Half-rapped, half-spoken lyrics. You could argue that it is not strictly hip-hop, but how is it in any way rock?

  45. l.... ....

    @Wschod press 3 to get there.

  46. G.... o....

    PEACE! FROM BRAZIL!

  47. G.... Y....

    Vivan los guettos!

  55. T.... ....

    Gave Tricky a hug as Blissfields fest!! Thanks for coming Tricky!!

  56. d.... e....

    You know whenever Tricky produces something its gonna have a dark tone and be banging.

  57. C.... R....

    Un concierto pa no olvidar, la chica es muy churra!

  58. c.... ....

    This is what separates Trip Hop from 21st Century Hip Hop... The lyrics have meaning, and the artistry when it comes to the music itself is astounding.

  59. r.... k....

    thats so hot, tricky and his stile are prefect!

  60. u.... ....

  63. b.... ....

    @MrSunchaser Yeah, how much both Massive Attack and tricky have changed..They need to start collaborating again

  64. c.... ....

    This isn't hiphop (which is mostly show-offy). This is smart music. This is triphop. <3

  65. P.... H....

    This was the best track on the album !

  66. V.... M....

    chicken. check. orange soda. check... where da colla geens?!
