I get the petrol don't forget to buy a couple of sweets Sometimes I like to treat myself if only once a week Open the door, get in the car, sit in the driver's seat Peer into the rearview mirror and I'm staring back at me When I say me I don't mean me as in my own reflection Hardly slept so I suspect I'm staring at some weird projection My brain has made to tell me alcohol abuse is wrong Whereupon, I turn around and realise somethings going on: Trust me son, this ain't a con, you have to trust your eyeballs Know those eyes are fine because they're mine so don't be stifled You're slightly balder now and yes your pubes are turnin grey But you've travelled back in time cause there's important shit to say Don't do that (nope) They'll try to dupe ya Don't do this (nah) They'll try to shoot ya Don't do her (grim!) She didn't suit ya Today I met myself and I told me bout my future So I'm sat in the front and sat in the back, as you do havin a chat Asking bout the change in rap and where the musics at I'm careful not to tell myself entirely everything I've come here just to warn me as to what the future brings: Oi, Listen, El, surely you can see that you're me I'm you, look at the lips, you really can't ignore me I know that in that bag there's ginger beer and curly-wurlys It's kinda hurly burly but you must believe my story I know you tasted glory, was all hunky dory, Now you're standing on the borderline, today's the day your sure to find, You don't know where to draw the line, this is the start of your decline That's why I came back exactly 15 years before your sordid crime Don't do that (nope) They'll try to dupe ya Don't do this (nah) They'll try to shoot ya Don't do her (grim!) She didn't suit ya Today I met myself and I told me bout my future Freakin out, I been sneakin bout Feelin edgy bout the fact that I've seeked me out I'm freakin out, I been sneakin bout And I've sat inside my car and started speakin bout What's yet to come It seems most of what the future has to hold for me is decent But recently my future self was caught having a threesome One of the girls was underage with fake identification The other one was legal but her father's occupation Was head of a group of hoodlums from just south of the Thames The entire episode was captured from a hidden lens They found some substances inside the glove box of my car So I'm front page of the sun, the mirror and the daily star I'm either goin down for twenty or thugs are out to get me My walls are bout to crumble which is why I went and sent me Back in time, prevent the crime, avoid Jane and Amy It seems my future self's a prick but really who can blame me Don't do that (nope) They'll try to dupe ya Don't do this (nah) They'll try to shoot ya Don't do her (grim!) She didn't suit ya Today I met myself and I told me bout my future
