we've got it made in Cornwall

forged in serpentine
where they work the mines

I've been doin' it dreckly
since 1983
3 years before Neighbours aired
on UK tv
grew up on Ramsay Street
with the TMHT
now I'm playing rap shows across the west country
Passman, yeah I hang with the Casio King
been rolling 10 years deep on this Casio ting
ain't no Rolex Sweep
we doin' the Casio Creep
the price ain't steep but we still got it for cheap
top of the heap an'
bottom of the pile man
it's gonna be a while before we're living in style
nice pile
shag pile
Kim Wilde on speed dial
'cause
we're the kids in the Kerrier
you say Perrier
well we say Perrier
come on
holiday and we'll be there for ya
putting on a show in your area
just stay away from Camborne man 'cause it don't get no lairier
yeah that's right
still reppin' for Redruth
just be careful what you step in when you're schlepping through Redruth
'cause there's shit on the ground
but there ain't a cloud in the sky son
I'm going up the hill 'cause it's looking like a nice one
a nice day to while away up Carn Brea
got a pasty in the bag
sink a tinny on the way
find a nice spot and take stock until the light fades
even the industrial state looks nice if you look at it in the right way
they used to mine clay, copper and tin
now they're making Tupperware to put your sandwiches in
it's still the same thing
it's still the grindin' we be grindin'
we're grafting
man, these beats were hand crafted
in Cornwall
we break it down like a storm wall
and storm every stage we play
whether big or small
we ain't acting cool 'cause we ain't
we just have a ball and keep it old school like MS Paint

from the engine houses
to the lighthouses
we've got it made in Cornwall
like the lighthouses
forged in serpentine
where they work the mines
and the dress code is informal

I live in a house on a cliff top
which is great for walks along the cliff top
my off license doubles up as a gift shop
when I buy my ales they come in a gift box
and there's a decent fish and chip shop
and a range of ice cream from rocky road to trip choc
that's why you'll find me down where the land ends
but not Land's End
chillin' with the gran dem
in a cottage by the sea
with a hallway full of boxes of CD's
'druth t-shirts in the washing machine
that goes on at 11 'cause we're on economy
7
it's a cottage industry
I don't go to work
I work constantly
24/7
7 days a week
I memorise my rhymes while taking a leak
I'm from Redruth and I still rep that
you might see me wearing a red hat
the milk in my tea is red cap
because I like the taste and there's less fat
there's a campsite where i buy eggs at
I'm living the life of an ex pat
where my neighbours are holiday makers
but I can get most
English papers
on my grind daily
do a tax return every January
but I don't pay tax
tax pays me
if I want a pay rise I'll have another baby
in my driveway is a Mercedes
and I pull up to a gig driving a Mercedes
but like my number one Casiotone
I've got one for parts
and one that starts

from the engine houses
to the lighthouses
we've got it made in Cornwall
