Memento Mori Songtext - The Streets

Ah, what was the question
Oh yeah, momento mori
It means remember it´s inevitable that we will all die
It sounds quite depressing when said so raw and direct
But it means don´t hang yourself on a material life
But that gets dropped when I´m bop on shopping day
Am I shallow, am i hung up on such wrong ways
Yes I am shallow and loving every wrong play
If love is blind then why do we all buy lingerie
I´ve got nothing in my life away from the studio
So when I´m loose I end up consuming dough

Memento mori, memento mori
It´s latin and it says we must all die
I tried it for a while but it´s a load of boring shit
So I buy buy buy buy buy buy

If I start to think of life I have prangs of paranoia
Pull one stripey shirt off a racks or another
Overthink my fate grasping a pastel jumper
Panic buy a flight home, prang though actually sober
Change my mind and fly back into vegas

My car just keeps carding with the card machine
You don´t regard the old you, driving a ferrarri
Mine´s the driving license through Nevada at speed
I never think about money
In fact I have no idea how much money I have

Memento mori, memento mori
It´s latin and it says we must all die
I tried it for a while but it´s a load of boring shit
So I buy buy buy buy buy buy

Chilly ´n carmen air sips as I´m parting her hair
But I´m an asbo drinker I want to be chilly parkair
But asbo drinkers just don´t dig my art and my flair
Even if they dig my asbo driving, past their carlight flair
Sometimes when I my diamond trinkets with my whores
I know I´ve strayed a bit from my old sins and my walks
But then I laugh out loud that my car still fucking talks
I feel awful for a bit but at least I´m not poor
