The Herd – Scallops Lyrics

R&B

Did you order the chips?
No, I ordered the scallops
No chips?
No chips, just scallop burgers
How long did she say?
Ten minutes or so
Ten minutes?
Ooh, that might be them
Aye? Ten minutes? (Ha ha ha)
Aw yeah
(Bring it up now)
Okay, c'mon
(Definitely)
This one goes out to Fish Piss Mouth and Flappy Patty
(Not to forget Burger Mouth)
Is he filleted?
(That's right, talk to him)
Okay then

Fatty cells expand when we take the mic in hand
Check out the land on which we dwell with the rhyme unplanned
Now central coastin', hot like central heating
MC's minds meeting like the lake meets the sea at Swansea
On solid rock, yes, you know we don't stop
'Til we got everyone of you poppin' like bottle tops
Like a stubby on the verandah, nothing we planned
Just spontaneous banter when we take the chance to
Entice you to do this nice to whatever vice you choose
I think we prove that you got nothing to lose
By following us; in my tongue I trust
To get done what we must swirls of red dust behind me
So hard to find it, so why try? Getting high
Wide open skies and country side
Just gimme some beats and rhymes and room to thrive and
I swear that I'll always come live and direct
Inspect the jam from every angle that you can
And you might interpret the master plan
But if you don't, I'll still be rockin' the boat
Chillin' with Traksewt and Toe Fu, lake side
To promote this new view

Oh woah, did you see that?
(Woah)
Is that right? Is anybody there?
Kenny, did you see that?
(Kenny?)
It's a flying scallop, over the lake
Woah

Like a $3.40 bag of hip hop from your local fish n' chip shop
Ah, scallops!
With dollops of flavour on top
When we do what we do, we give heads the bops
Like a $3.40 bag of hip hop from your local fish n' chip shop
Ah, scallops!
With dollops of flavour on top
When we do what we do, we give heads the bops
Like a $3.40 bag of hip hop from your local fish n' chip shop
Ah, scallops!
With dollops of flavour on top
When we do what we do (Do what we do), we give heads the bops (Bops)

Torches reflect in oily water, scorching sun
Ordinary laws, bored people run off the day; couldn't stay
So they packed up, stacked up equipment and set out
The way to play at Lake Placid, snake acid, wreak havoc
Groove grabbing, thought skanking, travelled on trains
Buses pains main lines, trusted train departing
We rushed it, discussed it, with lack of preparation
Separation from city scenes, littered streets, reversed beats
Immersed in the heat from The Batla's technique
Wants and needs, verbal speed darkness feeds
And bites and beats through the night that are sliced with a knife
Ripe with the rhymes that run through my life
With stacks and piles of pancakes and pears
For goodness sake I'm aware when we wake
Opportunities we take to break and break
And frantically tickle me; it's rushing all over me (Ooh)

Ooh
Hey, they haven't forgotten my order?
Nah, I think they just dropped it on the floor
Oh, I'm not eating that (Nope)

Like a $3.40 bag of fresh hip hop from your local fish n' chip shop
Ah, scallops!
With dollops of flavour on top
When we do as we do, we give heads the bops
Like a $3.40 bag of fresh hip hop from your local fish n' chip shop
Ah, scallops!
With dollops of flavour on top
When we do what we do, we give heads the bops

Clip-art cobras descending on Wyee Station
Not of the rave persuasion, we are our own rave
Trakswet, Toe Fu and I disembark in strange days
Swarms of Christmas beetles you have to get through or shoo away
Quick select few knew what to do
Or chose or choose to fly to flew to coastal aboads for tunes
That knew the wind that blew
No seeds be sewn it's all be blown in breezes
Reflective foils sonic releases and eases me
Essential, like sunscreen, SPF 15
Slip slop slap on this track when you wanna feel like summer
Laid back
Song gets stronger, MCs go longer
When folks in live shows nod along to their flows

Balcony's excellent
Thanks, thanks, very much
I'm deeply touched

Like a $3.40 bag of fresh hip hop from your local fish n' chip shop
Ah, scallops!
With dollops of flavour on top
When we do as we do, we give heads the bops
Like a $3.40 bag of fresh hip hop from your local fish n' chip shop
Ah, scallops!
With dollops of flavour on top
When we do as we do, we give heads the bops

Like a $3.40 bag of fresh hip hop from your local fish n' chip shop
Ah, scallops!
With dollops of flavour on top
When we do, we do, we give heads the bops, bops (The bops)
Give heads the bops, give heads the bops
Heads the bops, give heads the bops
(Number 34, your scallops are ready)
