Has it come to this? (oh, oh, oh, oh) 
original pirate material 
you're listening to The Streets 
Lock down your aerial 

has it come to this? (oh, oh, oh, oh) 
original pirate material 
you're listening to The Streets 
Lock down your aerial 

yo
make yourself at home 
we got diesel or some of that home-grown 
sit back in your thrown 
turn off oyur phone 
'cos this is our zone 

videos, televisions, 64's, playstations,
?webhenry? with precision 
a few herbs and a bit of Benson 

but don't forget the Rizla
lean like thet Tower of Pisa
these are, our ways yeah 
and this is a day in the life of a geezer 

for this ain't a club track 
pull out your sack and sit back 
whether you're white or black,
smoke weed, chase bown or toot rock 

we're on a mission 
support the cause, sign a petition
summon all your wisdom 
the music's a gift from the man on high, the lord and his children 

triple team here of rude boys 
come rain or snow, the buddha flows 
you don't know? 
stand on the corner, watch the show, 'cos life moves slow 
sort your shit out then roll 
sex, drugs and on the dole 
some men rise, some men fall 
I hear your call, stand tall now 

has it come to this? (oh, oh, oh, oh) 
original pirate material 
you're listening to The Streets 
Lock down your aerial 

has it come to this? (oh, oh, oh, oh) 
original pirate material 
you're listening to The Streets 
Lock down your aerial 

I'm just spitting 
think I'm ghetto? Stop dreaming 
my data's streaming 
I'm giving your them feelings 
touch your toes and touch the ceiling 
we walk the tight-rope of street-cred 
keep my dogs fed 
all jungle, all garage heads 
gold teeth, valentinos and dreads now 

we were verbally slapped-up 
physically ripped-up 
I do the science on my lap-top 
and I get my boys mashed up 

you're listening to The Streets 
you'll bear witness to some amazing feats 
bravery in the face of defeat 
all line up and grab your seat 

'cos Tony's got a new motor, SR Nova
driving like a joy-rider 
speeding to the corner 
your mother warned ya, it's a sound-sysytem banger 

has it come to this? (oh, oh, oh, oh) 
original pirate material 
you're listening to The Streets 
Lock down your aerial 

has it come to this? (oh, oh, oh, oh) 
original pirate material 
you're listening to The Streets 
Lock down your aerial 

my underground train runs from Brixton to Boundsgreen
my spitting's dirty and my beats are clean 
so smoke weed and be lean 

I step out my yard through the streets
in the dead heat all I've got is my spirit and my beats 
I play fair, don't cheat 
and keep the gangsters sweet

turn the page 
don't rip it out at your age 
move to the next stage 
lock the rage inside the cage 
like SK, it's a new day 
but don't take the shortcut through the sub-way 
it's pay or play, these geezers walk the gangway 
deep-seeded urban decay, deep-seeded urban decay, deep-seeded urban decay

rip down posters alight from last weeks garage night
and next weeks Tyson fight 
I cook 'em at 90° farenheight 
and don't copy hte copyright 
I got 'em in my sights 
blinding with the lights 
taken to dizzy new heights 
blinding with the lights, blinding with the lights 
dizzy new heights 

Has it come to this? (oh, oh, oh, oh) 
original pirate material 
you're listening to The Streets 
Lock down your aerial 

has it come to this? (oh, oh, oh, oh) 
original pirate material 
you're listening to The Streets 
Lock down your aerial 

Has it come to this? (oh, oh, oh, oh) 
original pirate material 
you're listening to The Streets 
Lock down your aerial 

has it come to this? (oh, oh, oh, oh) 
original pirate material 
you're listening to The Streets 
Lock down your aerial 

Has it come to this? (oh, oh, oh, oh) 
original pirate material 
you're listening to The Streets 
Lock down your aerial 

has it come to this? (oh, oh, oh, oh) 
original pirate material 
you're listening to The Streets 
Lock down your aerial 

Has it come to this? (oh, oh, oh, oh) 
original pirate material 
you're listening to The Streets 
Lock down your aerial 

has it come to this? (oh, oh, oh, oh) 
original pirate material 
you're listening to The Streets 
Lock down your aerial
