Crying Game

[Verse 1: Professor Green] No religion, all I follow is my feet, no psalms As far as holy water, I would need a bath Even breathing stressing, he didn't even ask So far passed stressed that I can't even see the 'R' His is as I am truly, high at times, I'm ruly My mind's screwed and my mood's blue as a lazuli Add to that my heart isn't good, I lie to these groupies Like I like 'em, I don't like 'em, I just like to get the goodies So disrespectful, giving your chick a neckful of salty water She sorta looks like she bit on a pretzel Skilled I'm passed that, I'm past them Got that lemon? Pass that Then you lucky if you see it passed back [Chorus] Crying game, don't you forget Don't you forget it anyway (It's a) Crying game, don't you forget me, don't feed your lie (It's a) Crying game, don't you forget Don't you forget it anyway Don't you forget it anyway [Verse 2: The Streets] Never trust a man with two phones You couldn't throw Pro Green like you'd throw two stones And Pro Green knows, I'm in the gap in this market For the gafts and sharp wit, I laugh it off partly but Have to start to think, no partners in this Just a part of the business; after the party is finished, we part with a wish Danny Dyer eating Paella, in that dire dwelling So badly wanted out, one more try on the selling The 80's dream was the fate of our scheme Me, Ted Mayhem and team In sport, we were taught to be sporting But in law, we were courting something But don't rate me in the 80's, we were naughty in the noughties There's a parroty, now I see, that's between charity I beat you at your peak, I'll beat you on the beak Ask me anything, many men end here Many never made lengths, I'll tell you when your spent [Bridge] Now you care for me (You see it, Mike, they think I speak as nice but I don't believe the hype) Now you care for me (Them man are idiots, there's no defeating us, soon they'll see that it's a-) [Chorus] Crying game, don't you forget Don't you forget it anyway (It's a) Crying game, don't you forget me, don't feed your lie (It's a) Crying game, don't you forget Don't you forget it anyway Don't you forget it anyway [Verse 3: Professor Green] I'm on jet fuel, them man are on fumes, dizzy I guess them man and 'em on shrooms I'm as bad as an animal, got loose It's sticky in the manor 'cause batterin' on moves 'Cause when you're moving, Mike, why you still moving, why? Man, they look at you like voo-move And it don't matter what you do with the mic But I spike the stakes Even though they try to pull out their hate They're not sly, they're bait I see your mate dreamin', I'm wide awake If you really think you're wicked, then bring it and die in shade See, we can smile as winners, for them, it's a crying game [Chorus] Crying game, don't you forget Don't you forget it anyway (It's a) Crying game, don't you forget me, don't feed your lie (It's a) Crying game, don't you forget Don't you forget it anyway Don't you forget it anyway
