Driven Round U-Bend

You have the wrong perception of a u-bends purpose - it's not for what you think
You believe it's there to catch the valuables you've dropped down the sink
So gather round and settle down, 'cos you're all in for a treat
Once you heard the truth you'll have good reason to be dancing in the street

Yeah, you be dancing

You tell me you're keen to learn, it's what you yearn, but before I can agree
You need understand this kind of information can be awful deadly
This comes a risk, so I need to insist you gotta fill out a waiver form
Declaring any rights you once had have been voluntarily withdrawn

Yeah, they've been withdrawn
They've been... yeah!

Strap yourselves in, I'm about to begin, I'm gonna share my knowledge wit'choo
(I'm gonna share it)
It's said knowledge is power and within half hour you'll have learnt something fucking new
(go on and learn it)
Strap yourselves in, I'm about to begin, I'm gonna share my knowledge wit'choo
(I'm gonna share it)
It's said knowledge is power and within half hour you'll have learnt something fucking new
(go on and learn it)

What's this?
You're nearly ready, go on and blow your nose
Yeah?
Get set, get steady, right - wiggle your toes

Ahh...

Strap yourselves in, I'm about to begin, I'm gonna share my knowledge wit'choo
(I'm gonna share it)
It's said knowledge is power and within half hour you'll have learnt something fucking new
(go on and learn it)
Strap yourselves in, I'm about to begin, I'm gonna share my knowledge wit'choo
(I'm gonna share it)
It's said knowledge is power and within half hour you'll have learnt something fucking new
(go on and learn it)

(Exciting accidental key-change)

Your patience has betrayed you
You took it outside and gave it damned good talking to

Well, maybe you should've lit a candle and made a wish
Closed your fucking eyes and give your magic wand a swish
Well, I never really knew the importance of this to you
But, believe me now I do
You were tipped over the edge as I refrained
You blew yourself up and now we're all bloodstained
If you can hear me now from beyond the grave
I'll furnish you

It's to stop the stink from underground pipes coming back up and through your sink
It's very simple but an equally clever method
With the water sitting in the bend forming a natural barrier

It seems you were driven round u-bend
You were driven round u-bend
Seems you driven round u-bend
You were driven round u-bend

Release notes:

All words & music by Tico Jnr.
Except explosion by a rather unfortunate incident

Often described as the modern day 'Borap', Tico sets us on a musical journey with a very sinister story. Not wanting to give too much away, this radio friendly behemoth takes so many turns, and even throws in an accidental key-change, which is very exciting!

'I always like to educate in all pieces of my art', chants a proud Tico. 'I've done it many time before, for example with cotton bud usages, and this song is going to inform the misinformed. But, as Jay Orange once sang to us - just have a little patience, unlike one unfortunate participant in this song!'
