Caerdiff

 
 
Caerdiff
 
 
to be read out in the style of a hip hop rapper/beat boxer
 
 
 
 
 
No man you read that right
 
it's a C to the E
 
You wanna fight?
 
I gone to the Welsh skool
 
but it done me no good
 
cos no fucker speaks it
 
You take me for a fool?
 
They say you got to go away, to come back, right?
 
Well I've just been away, come back
 
and it's still shite.
 
Fat men in valleys accents and red shirts
 
drinking lots of beer till their bellies hurt.
 
Saturday night is the fucking worst
 
St Mary St and they all got a thirst
 
Stiletto heeled giraffes, mouthing, "look don't touch"
 
then reaching down and grabbing for your crotch
 
Rugby playing monsters grunting at the bar
 
Dr Who Impersonators going too far.
 
This City don't know its arse from its elbow
 
Its Mail from its Echo
 
And the sad thing is its always been this way
 
And it don't fucking matter what Dan O' Neill
 
do say!
