Newport (Ymerodraeth State Of Mind)
Yeah I'm up at Ridgeway
Now I'm down the Moorings, right next to the Debenhams
And I'll be Port forever
Yes it is my lifeblood
These streets they are a part of me
The yin to my yang
The Craig to my Bellamy
Catch me in the kitchen
I've got cheese I'm melting it
Caerphilly, bread and ham
Hey presto it's a Rarebit
Head out to Caerleon
Off-white transit
Febreeze on the dash for the strain where my nan sits
Out for the big one, sniffin' on the miaow miaow
DJ on the ones and twos, spinnin' Little Bow Wow
On the dancefloor raving, pack of 16 Benson
Someone fighting bouncers...turns out it's Gavin Henson
Big up to Plaid Cymru, and the Welsh Assembly
Big up to Millennium: we don't need no Wembley
Keep your Big Apple...
We'll have a tangerine
Bugger of Alicia, Shirley Bassey is our queen
Round here we stick together
Like birds of a feather...
Except we're not from Chigwell...
We're from the small Welsh town of...
Newport
Concrete jumble, nothing in order
Not far from the border....
When you're in Newport
Chips, cheese, curry makes you feel brand new
Washed down with a Special Brew
Repeat the word Newport, Newport, Newport
Catch me at Gwent Dragons in my fleece
Watching real sport
Shit, I make the Dragons' fleece more famous
Than the Argonauts
And now that I've made it here I can make it anywhere
Signed a girl's baubles when I headlined at the local
fair
Yeah know the D to the V to the LA
Dad said "Get a job with them ," but Swansea's too far
away
So look me up on Google -- I'm seven pages in
Was in the local paper, Mam threw it in the bin
She didn't see the article calling me a rap star
Ripped it into pieces, and used it for the hamster
Tom Jones, Steve Jones, Zeta Jones, traffic cones
If you come and visit use the Designated Parking Zones
There's a snooker hall, see
But I'm not a member...
And a lovely shopping centre opened in December
So head over the water
On the transporter
Fifty for the toll booth
Male Voice Choir singing out...
Newport
Twinned with Guangxi, Province in China
There's no province finer
Josie D'Arby's from Newport
Yes, it's strange, we didn't know either...
Thank you Wikipedia
Let's say some more Newport, Newport, Newport
One hand in the air for a taxi
Fifty quid if you're sick on the back seat
But all those bendy roads make me queasy...
Can someone hold my hair?
Everybody say...
Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwlll
lantysiliogogogoch
Newport...
Access from the A4042
Traffic will enrage you
On your way to Newport
Our shopping centre is quite new
Big leaks will inspire you
Repeat to fade Newport, Newport, Newport"
