That Time Of Year Lyrics

Everyone sit back 'cos it's that time of year

Where ya brekky each day is six pints of beer

Gettin' told to slow down; not somethin' ya tryna hear

Past 2020, but, the vision in ya eye is clear

Ya go heckers 'cos ya know a new year starts soon

Now I feel like a whale; won't see me near harpoons

I'm a fossil; I'm starting to walk with a gradual limp

'Cos Shady I have a dad-bod; look like an actual blimp

I now see I need to give up the pizza it's clear

Swap the Maccas for salad and stop the reefer and beer

And ya probably wondering how I can preach

When I can't even take my top off down at the beach

I try to 'pump' people up and get all philosophical

There's not enough 'air' in my lungs to fill a soccer ball

I feel 'deflated' and defeated; I'm hated and I'm needed

This is my free advice, bitch, you'll take it or you'll leave it

Now raise your hands up, for that time of year

We need to stand up, with pride not fear

A positive voice, is all ya tryna hear

So let's make a choice, 'cos the time is near

Now raise your hands up, for that time of year

We need to stand up, with pride not fear

A positive voice, is all ya tryna hear

So let's make a choice, 'cos the time is near

I've got money, but with it, I don't know what to do

Do I get a house or go on holiday? I haven't got a clue

If I get a house, for ages, I'll live like a pauper

But no-one to holiday with, that's life just for ya

Maybe in 2023 I find the time, to write a rhyme

That makes my future open up, like a giant blind

'Cos I can't keep doing this nine to five

Maybe I find that niche that makes me know I'm alive

Do ya ever really just think about what ya next move is

Or do you just bite the bullet and say let's do this

They say failing to plan is just planning to fail

Sometimes ya gotta float by without manning the sail

So is it time to move on, to find the answer

Or to get ya groove on, just like a dancer

That was a little too strong, but it's never too wrong

So it's fine I asked ya

Now raise your hands up, for that time of year

We need to stand up, with pride not fear

A positive voice, is all ya tryna hear

So let's make a choice, 'cos the time is near

Now raise your hands up, for that time of year

We need to stand up, with pride not fear

A positive voice, is all ya tryna hear

So let's make a choice, 'cos the time is near
