[Intro] [distorted PA voice, crowd murmur, record crackle] Easy now… Step in the pit if you dare If you hear this in your nightmares (blame me, mate) [Siren swell, scratch flurry] [Chorus] Bob’s your uncle When the floor goes under When your chest caves in From the panic and the thunder Bob’s your uncle When the lights turn red If you woke up breathing We can fix that instead (oi!) [Verse 1] Steel toe stomp, I’m a walking alarm Jaw clenched tight with a fist in my palm Teeth in the kick, put your ribs in the snare Lost your mates? Good. Stay right there I’m that voice in the back of your skull Saying “jump, don’t stop till it’s painful” Strong tea, strong lungs, strong language Whole room shakes when we channel the anguish (yah!) [Pre-Chorus] Who wants trouble? (me!) Who wants more? (more!) If you came for a cuddle Wrong blood-clot floor Hands up high, sacrificial style If you’re scared of the dark Don’t look at my smile [Chorus] Bob’s your uncle When the floor goes under When your chest caves in From the panic and the thunder Bob’s your uncle When the lights turn red If you woke up breathing We can fix that instead (oi-oi!) [Spoken Word Break] Listen This is not music This is a power cut inside your head Strobes on your sins Sweat on your regrets If you feel the walls closing in That’s just us Saying hello [Build-Up] [drums filter down, acid line rising, rapid cuts of “Bob’s—Bob’s—Bob’s your—uncle!”] Hold it Hold it Don’t breathe till the drop— [Beat Drop / Hype] (LET IT GO!) [full drums slam in, heavy scratches] Kick to the ribs, that’s a greeting Floorboard flex, that’s a meeting Mosh in the middle like a bad idea If you’re still calm, we’ll fix that here (here… here…) [Verse 2] Big bad Brit with a chip on his tongue Every bar barked like a war drum rung Sirens sing, but they sing off key If the law walks in, they dance with me (come on!) Neon eyes in a blackout club Got that twitch like you need more buzz You ain’t from here? We adopt on sight Sign in blood, that’s your pass for the night [Pre-Chorus] Who said stop? (who?) Name them now One shy face and we shut this down From the front to the back To the fire exit crew If you’re still too sane This one’s for you [Chorus] Bob’s your uncle When the floor goes under When your chest caves in From the panic and the thunder Bob’s your uncle When the lights turn red If you woke up breathing We can fix that instead [Outro] [beat strips down to toms and acid line, DJ spins back phrases] “Bob’s… your… uncle…” [whispered, close to mic] Next time you hear my name You’ll already be inside [final scratch flourish, bass stab, abrupt stop]
