[Verse 1: Manchester female MC, blunt and quick] Thursday at the Feathers, I'm the one behind the bar Pulling pints for blokes who think a dartboard makes them stars Big Terry's had the trophy since the year the mill shut down Twelve years on the oche, he's the king of every pub in town Laughs at me for wiping down his table every week Says, love, the board is for the lads, go on and top me up, be sweet So I practice after closing with the chairs up on the tables Three darts at the twenty every night until I'm able [Pre-Hook: Manchester female MC] Rules say finish on a double or you don't get paid Lads say a lot of things when they've had a few, mate [Hook: Manchester female MC, full force] I always finish on a double Pour it neat, I never fumble Top of the board and the top of the bill I always finish on a double and I always will [Verse 2: Manchester female MC, faster] League final at the Feathers and the whole estate turned out Rain against the windows and the telly's turned right down Terry at the line in his lucky Sunday shirt Throws a ton-forty like it doesn't even hurt I step up with the bar towel tucked behind my belt Two treble twenties, now he's feeling what I felt Forty left, I need it, double top or nothing more Terry's mates are laughing till they're staring at the floor [Pre-Hook: Manchester female MC] Rules say finish on a double or you don't get paid Lads say a lot of things when they've had a few, mate [Hook: Manchester female MC, full force] I always finish on a double Pour it neat, I never fumble Top of the board and the top of the bill I always finish on a double and I always will [Bridge: Manchester female MC, sings one line clear, then straight back to rapping] Every night after closing I was practicing for this One dart left and the whole estate is holding its breath Thin wire on the double like a needle at my chest Let it go, it lands, top of the board, dead in Terry puts his pint down, first time I've seen him grin [Verse 3: Manchester female MC, proud and steady] Now it's Thursday at the Feathers and the trophy's on the shelf Name in gold above the bar, I hung it up there myself Big Terry chalks my matches now, he calls out every score Asks me, love, you want a drink? I tell him, mate, I pour [Hook: Manchester female MC, full force] I always finish on a double Pour it neat, I never fumble Top of the board and the top of the bill I always finish on a double and I always will [Outro: Manchester female MC] Game shot, and the match [End]
