[Intro]
I’m watchin’ him cuttin’ / tryin’ to get his shit down / [AD-LIB: yeah!] /
He tries with his blades to fade / but… he’s gettin’ in a state / [AD-LIB: uh!] /
So I turn to him / like a king / I state… /
“Blend that in, mate” / [PUNCH] / “Get off your cell phone” / [AD-LIB: come on!] /
Even if it’s your mother / or brother / or fit sister… /
Put that phone down / your phone / for fuck’s sake / [PUNCH] /
[Verse 1]
You fuckin’ idiot / who the fuck are you textin’? / [PUNCH / AD-LIB: what!] /
You got me vexin’ / stressin’ / perplexed and flexin’ / /
Get back… stand back / fade-rage incoming / I’m vexin’ / I’m vexin’ / /
Please man, please / concentrate on your fading / earn your pay… / [AD-LIB: yeah!] /
Fade and get paid / fade and get paid / you… yeah you… / [PUNCH] /
Why the fuck you evadin’ / actin’ all shady? / earn your pay, man / please… / /
If you don’t make the grade / I’m not payin’ / no pay no way / no pay / no way / /
Just sayin’ right? / breathe / keep the line / keep the sway / [AD-LIB: steady]
[Pre-Chorus]
Vexin’, stressin’, perplexed and flexin’ / (short breath) /
Fade rage incoming, clipper-blind—hear the lesson / [PUNCH] /
Calm down… calm down… / breathe through the session / /
Concentrate on the fade / earn your pay / focus, stay / [AD-LIB: lock in]
[Hook] (CALL & RESPONSE) / (tight, 2x)
Barber: Blend that in, mate! / Customer: Blend it, blend it! / [PUNCH] /
Barber: Keep it tight, mate! / Customer: Keep it, keep it! / [AD-LIB: yo!] /
We move the clippers, scissors, comb / make it right, mate / don't fight, mate / /
Blend that in, mate — one clean sweep, finish straight / [PUNCH]
[Verse 2]
Hands off his beard, man / wipe the stray / keep the play / [AD-LIB: uh!] /
You can’t blend a two to a zero if you panic on the way / clipper-blind today / /
That haircut’s a state / lost the guideline / shaky wrist, shaky spine / [PUNCH] /
You think you rate it? You don’t / fumble-fade, lost the line / really? really? / /
You’re half-cut, bong-lit, never on the clock / lazy, clouded, never makin’ the grade / /
Knockin’ out bongs in the staff room bathroom / stinkin’ from the Stellas you been sinkin’ / /
Let that sink in… does it sink in? no? / I didn’t think so / repeat: check your hand / [AD-LIB: come on!]
[Bridge — Cinematic Build] / (tight & rhythmic)
Pivot. Parry. Step. Snap. / [PUNCH] /
Pivot. Parry. Step. Snap. / short breath / /
I’ll go Jackie Chan on the bad fade—movement slick, no slack / /
Jet Li with the comb — step, chin, wrist, attack / [AD-LIB: ha!] /
Switch. Slide. Angle. Lock. / precise, sharp, theatrical / /
Short imperatives: Move. Cut. Match. Finish. / make it vertical / [PUNCH]
[Verse 3 — Performance Verse]
Please, man—concentrate on your fading… steady, deliberate / breathe / /
Concentrate… concentrate… line up, then calibrate / snap / [AD-LIB: lock it] /
BISH, BASH, BOSH — swift right, quick knee — precision’s what I state / [PUNCH] /
Don’t you try and T
