Lip filler
Rich nigger
Press trigger
Trying to pout
Can’t quite
Figure it
How to get you and I
In a lip lock
Figure eight
Bit coming through
With the coin
I’m trying to get more bigger
Trying to get styled
Trying to get cast
Trying to get interviewed
On the big red carpet
Looking like Little Richard
Pressed wig
All pretty
All black
Red lippy
Shotter hit a lick
And bought his chick some
Hit thirty odd Portland Place
And laced up my loafers
Unzipped my t shirt
Undone my fly
Put in my pin
And kissed goodbye

Moving out
Stepping out
Going out
Flying out
Coming out
Looking out
Checking out
Working out
Showing out
Blowing out
Hoeing out
Rowing out
Gigoloing out
Knowing out
Caning out
Raining
Coking out
Ketting out
Planning out
Xanning out
Sailing out
Sailing out
Sailing out
Sailing out

Suicide

How it feel sometimes
Want to feel sometimes
Want to kill some time
Want to kill sometimes
Got to kneel sometimes
Want a pill sometimes
On a pill sometimes
Skin it peel sometimes
Wear a hat sometimes
Got to Jack sometimes
Yoga mat sometimes
On the rack sometimes
No strap sometimes
Bareback sometimes
Don’t lack sometimes
No slack sometimes
It’s tight sometimes
Too loose sometimes
Want a noose sometimes
Want a knife sometimes
Want a gun sometimes
Want to run sometimes
Want to slide sometimes
Suicide sometimes

Nose people know people
Knees people need people
And me’s people’s I’s people
But those people ain’t my people
Pupils is wide people
And my nose is wide
Open for those people
High people my people
In the dance
These people know these people
But those people don’t know me

Got too rich
Too quick
Too much
Too soon
I’m doomed
I’m doomed
I’m doomed
I’m doomed
Touched too much
Was almost there
She’s losing hair
I’m losing care
And I can’t say
And I can’t share
And I can’t spend
And I can’t save
Need a trim and
Need a shave
But need to rave
I need to rave
So get me paid
And sort me out
Suck me down
And lick me out
And don’t come fast
And don’t come quick
You got too rich
Too quick
Too quick

Babylon

Contact the police force
You don’t like noise
Call the police force
You just saw four black boys
Some black boys join the police force
What if more black Boys joined the police force
Can’t force it
Like a corset
Or conscription
Need a prescription
For these dark patches
Lighter for your cigarette
Can’t find no matches
It’s way too dark
Start a fire in this bloodclart
And Light up Babylon

There goes
Another manic episode
Haven’t been diagnosed
But that therapist’s dialogues in the bin
Sometimes you know
What’s what
What’s that
On your tongue
In your bong
In your bum
Nice thong
On my tongue
Brown sugar
In your tea
Checking the recipe
To see
whether or not it’s cold outside
And what time the sun will shine again
Lunacy
‘til then
‘til then
‘til then

Grime Cats (The Chop)

Grime cats
Chatting about
Who jacked whose snare
Staring at the last
Chance to make a decent
First impression
On the neutral but slightly more
Pop-orientated audience
Sitting on the studio sofa
Facing an unpopular vote
Might need to leave the house today
And stare that daylight in the face
I never liked yours
But on this occasion
We could just lock lips
Seeing as we’ve been
Talking about
Who we’re seeing
Locking horns
Peace
War
And which steppers tune
Has got the best trumpets
And which one was played in
On a synth
And which one of them
Should have been paid more
The royalties are real
The powder is cut
The scene is shifting
And I don’t believe any of us
Will ever truly know
Any of the answers
To any of the questions
Being put forth on this forum
I just know they call this one
The Chop

High Chat (Bonus Track)
02:00

Do people talk straight in those circles
This is just a left
Tequila shot
Dirty martini
Vodka shot
Vermouth
Vine and banging
Salt
I got the inside scoop
Working the field
Gaming the players
Broke her up
Brand new box
With windows and a rose
Sterilising cabinet
Meet you on the appointment
Dock
Tour
Deserves the story
Fucking rising to the position
Killing the man
Murder the memory
Half pint
Home boy
Didn’t make it
But sense the ex type jag
Legendary whip
White lines
So you fail the test
Going back to the centre
Plus this is the breast
Bless the lesson
Doing the best but I think
It ran too smooth
Not as many as we thought
She took hers
And paid her nice
can’t quite say
Per say
That could be a decent
Purse
Coal mining with Olivia
Looking for the
Inside scoop
Nice life
Young space
Sian inside
And I used to chef with rose
No such thing as
As a dictaphone
In your memory
Who were we with last night
We watched a sexy beast
In the zone of unrest
Interest
Outstanding Contribution
Club hopping
Plum hops into
The gap between
The rest
Hate the silly names
Fun games
To do today
Locked off streets
Unchained the walk
Working by the power
Station
Blood flows down the river bank
But she doesn’t say
Forever young
And she knows it now
How can you say it now
Lying about your life
Wild
I feel like I’ve been
This age
Can’t get over it
Act your shoe size
Don’t lie about your
Make up
Can’t stand the soup
Insecure in teeth
Lie about the 23
Few more minutes
Talking about the future
Die
I know sis
You’ve been cut
I’ve been a
Wherewolf
It’s sunny
Daddy
I want a brother
These
Should roll with the
Blunt one
Stabbing up
Snipers in the nightclub at
Getting down
In the dance

Though Chasms' melancholy, dreamy music might be feather-light, it hits with emotional heft.
