Let’s see

Spiky like the holly

Bitey like a snake

I can be a bitch too, make no mistake

Though I am a nice girl

To those who mean me well

But to adversary, I will bring you Hell!

I’m not just all talk either

I can fight like a geezer

Because that’s how I was raised

War torn and grazed

Fighting in the backstreets to save my brother’s life

Being beaten with shovels

Yeah I’ve known strife

I’m not a spoiled brat living from the banks of mum and dad

I’ve known real life and it made me bad

But I move away from those rotten things

But haven’t forgotten how to sting

So please spare me your childish jeers

I’ve been toughened up over the years

You are boring and predictable too

You spout the same shit like it’s new

Bet you think you are cool for doing that

I don’t, I think you are scat!

You are sad and bored and that’s why you do it

You don’t believe in yourself that’s why you spit

I am yawning here coz I’ve had enough of it!

Come at me if you dare

Fight me in my corner right here in the square

Let’s see how you fare, when you’re in the ring

Let’s see how much shit then, you’d want to sing

Bet you’re all talk and wouldn’t want to do it

Why is that?

Because you are full of shit!

Now I’m getting real

I have had enough

But don’t think for one second, this is a bluff!
