The Muscles From Bretton (The Ballad Of Tico Jnr.) Download Born in the PDH, circa nineteen eighty two, yeah The most handsome, bonny baby boy all dressed in blue Made mincemeat of potty training, they all knew I would Handed me a Flying V as I was so damn good You heard about the muscles from Brussels Well, I'm the muscles from Bretton I'll only tell you once So don't you go forgetting Growing up on the streets some young boys find it tough (but not me!) I enjoyed playing on the swings, though I soon had had enough By eight I had turned to drugs, gave up my career prospects Set fire to my pencil case and started to practice unsafe sex You heard about the muscles from Brussels Well, I'm the muscles from Bretton I won't repeat myself So don't you go forgetting No! By eleven I was a father of four with a couple o' mouths to feed Every night a different whore - every night a different need At twelve I got back on the saddle and decided to right my wrongs I got myself clean and a job modelling see-thru thongs You heard about the muscles from Brussels Well, I'm the muscles from Bretton I'll only tell you once So don't you go forgetting You heard about the muscles from Brussels Well, I'm the muscles from Bretton I won't repeat myself So don't you go forgetting --- Release notes: All words & music by Tico Jnr. The title track - a very clever and exceptional song. Lyrics as obvious as a poke in the eye, Tico tells you a bit about his early years. 'I knew I was special from even before I was born, and I immediately set about becoming the legend I am shortly after my transfer into this world' raps Tico. It is very easy to how Tico got the brilliant nicknames 'The Muscles From Bretton' and 'Tico Ray Bluehand' with this amazing performance. It just oozes goodness. Rumoured to have been intended for the wonderful debut solo album 'Lazy. Sexy. Cool', Tico was meant to have confusingly set it aside for a Space Brain album (which is confirmed to never ever be happening), so he snatched it back and gave it a dripping of gloss, and here we are. According to rumour, of course.
