At Your Inconvenience Lyrics


I'm back
Like I never left
I'm here at your in-convenience
I'm back
Like I never left
I'm here at your in-convenience(So Steve, Steve. Where did you grow up?
Upper Clapton, Hackney
(How old were you when you first started rapping?)
I was 18
(Who are your major influences?)
Are you serious?
Your MumI ain't answering anymore of your questions
You know what?
I have a questionHmm
Whose idea was it to get in the charts
By rhyming over Hungarian dance mu-sic
And why would I make dance mu-sic
When I can't dance to it?

I'm the anecdote to that shit
Bringing back this rap shit
Soon as I'm done calling this bulimic-a-fat bitch
I'll be saving the day and renegade with a dog
Playing fetch
Watching him chase a grenade (pow)
Maybe I should play the same game with Bruno
If I ever again get mistaken for a Cluedo
Character
I'm gonna have to unleash some amateur judo
I just took a shit and now I can't find any loo roll
Two flows
For everyone that you got
Too hot
I do squat
Diddily
And do more than you do when you do lots
Do lots
Do women do for me what they do not do for you?
Maybe it's got something to do with my new watchThat's it!(I'm back)
I'm back
(Like I never left)
Like I never left
(I'm here at your)
I'm here at your
(In-convenience)
In-convenience(I'm back)
I'm back
(Like I never left)
Like I never left
(I'm here at your)
I'm here at your
(In-convenience)
In-convenienceI have a questionWhy would I beat around the bush or take the scenic route?
When I'm a meanie
Born to instigate fumes
I'm the morning, midday and evening news
And I started a trend
Mike got his teeth fixed too
(Mike Skinner)
If you're wondering where I've been at
Kicked back with a six-pack
Of becks on a bench
Sunbathing in a hijab
Give me a Tic-Tac
I just had a pack of Nik Naks
Thanks
Now I'll turn you into a kebab with my pick-axe
Mish, mash, mosh-pit
Whenever I drop shit
It's hot shit
I just won a race with an ostrich
Obnoxious, preposterous, looney, a damn nutter
If I ever see Rooney anywhere near my Grandmother (ah!)
I live life without an ounce of logic
I like my wrist so much
I spent a house deposit on it
Vomit and then I drink more wine
Then I broke a bowl
And hope the Hospital gives me morphine
How do you spend your time?(I'm back)
I'm back
(Like I never left)
Like I never left
(I'm here at your)
I'm here at your
(In-convenience)
In-convenience(I'm back)
I'm back
(Like I never left)
Like I never left
(I'm here at your)
I'm here at your
(In-convenience)
In-convenience)I don't have a question
NopeWhen it comes to competition
I'm burying them
Better to bury them
Then have them getting lairy again
They want it with me like they want it with malaria
Like Wayne Bridge wants to be John Terry'd again
I developed an obsession with Caroline Flack
I wouldn't mind having a go on Caroline's-
Actually
I promise to never be so vulgar
To never mention putting my cobra inside of Anna Kournikova
I swear(I'm back)
I'm back
(Like I never left)
Like I never left
(I'm here at your)
I'm here at your
(In-convenience)
In-convenience(I'm back)
I'm back
(Like I never left)
Like I never left
(I'm here at your)
I'm here at your
(In-convenience)
In-convenienceI think I've got it out of my system now
(You sure?)
I am once again ready to answer questions
(Good, cause there's so much I've been wanting to ask you)
About 8 inches
(What?)

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Professor Green is an english rapper from Hackney, East London, currently signed to Virgin Records, after Mike Skinner's The Beats label closed, and ended a run of his own radio shows on BBC Radio 1.

He was signed to The Beats, a record label run by Mike Skinner and Ted Mayhem from 2006 until 12 February 2008, when the label terminated. He rose to success upon winning the inaugural JumpOff MySpace £50,000 battle rap tournament in July 2008. Following this in 2009, Manderson worked with Lily Allen on her 2009 concert tour.

Growing up on the Northwold estate in Upper Clapton, Green's familial situation saw him being raised by his grandmother while he traded up school attendance for just hanging on the estate, like kids do. The Read All About It Songfacts reports that he had a turbulent relationship with his father, who was rarely around during Manderson's childhood and committed suicide in 2008. In his hit single, Read All About It, Green responds to accusations made by his stepmother that his debut album, Alive Till I'm Dead, was "cashing-in" on his death.

While the usual nefarious stories of low budget living played a part in his life, Green's formative years were also characterised by fun: skating was big on the estate, etc. He also had an early inkling that the art of verbal sparring would somehow play a part in his life, confessing how, he always wanted to be a barrister or a lawyer. "I like debates and I've always been argumentative, I think that's helped me in battles a lot."

However, while becoming obsessed with hip-hop at the age of nine "Biggie [The Notorious B.I.G.] is my greatest hip-hop influence", Green only switched up from passive fan to active participant at a relatively late stage. After turning 18 years old, he coined his first rhyme completely off-the-cuff when put on the spot at an impromptu freestyle jam session round a friends house. Passing the test with aplomb and impressing his music making peers, the underground rap battle scene suddenly opened up before him.

After seeing a poster advertising a rap battle at the Lyric Pad night in London, Green turned up and won. From that he graduated to competing at the prestigious Jump Off events, performing at venues like The Scala and Sound in Leicester Square, and becoming the first ever contestant to win six straight weekly finals in a row. While his seventh showdown ended in defeat, he returned undeterred, put together a second run of consecutive victories and became the first string seven wins together. Throw in a further series of seven straight wins and a dalliance with pay battles, and Green became a man to fear on the battle circuit.

Cue a change of scene and a flight to the exotic climes of the Bahamas to spar for $50,000.

Entering the Power Summit battle against America's finest freestyle icons (think 8 Mile but with no holds barred), the crowd may have first viewed Green as this white English kid who's not going to do anything, but his gift of gab and ability to coin scathing punchlines saw him through to the final where he faced Jin, a member of DMXs much amped Ruff Ryders camp. The judges decided in Jin's favour, although with the Ruff Ryder man having been given a bye to the final and Green having already been through seven prior knockout bouts (including taking out representatives from Eminem's Shady Records camp), by his own admission it was "more a case of me losing it as opposed to Jin winning it."

Still, with a crowd featuring US big rap guns like Busta Rhymes and Saigon, Green made a name for himself and in September went off to Hawaii to compete in the battle again.

A performance at the B-Boy Championships last summer ultimately paid greater dividends and opened him up to a new audience in Mike Skinner of The Streets fame.

"Mike approached me after the B-Boy Championships and wanted to bring me on tour with The Streets" he recalls. I ended up doing an opening battle on the tour and we formed a great relationship from that. At first it wasn't about me looking for a record deal though it was more a case of us deciding to lay down some tracks and seeing where it went.

At the end of April 2006 he signed on the dotted line to release his debut album on Skinner's The Beats label. And while UK hip-hop's profile is certainly in the ascendancy thanks to acts like Skinnyman, Sway and Kano, Green has his eyes on breaking out beyond the usual urban tag affixed to British rappers.

Name-checking Portishead, Radiohead, Tracy Chapman and Suzanne Vega as song-writing influences, Green is well aware of the importance of adapting his lyrics from the immediacy of the live battle circuit to cater to the depth of the album format.

"The thing with hip-hop is if you take a lot of rap songs outside of rap then they aren't great songs, whereas with something like country if you take them outside of the genre then the song-writing skills are still incredible, he rationalises. And I'd like to take those skills into rap."

So while never completely leaving behind the entertaining punchlines that have characterised his battle persona, the album will take in everything from songs about his estranged parents to wish lists of things to do before he passes away and the plight of the average stereotypical man in the eyes of the average stereotypical female (see Stereotypical Man, complete with the catchphrase "'Til my breathings done I'll be reading page three of The Sun").

As Green concludes of his new goals "I wouldn't be happy to sell just 30,000 copies of my album. I don't think that there's anything wrong with aiming above that, giving people an album they can relate to, and wanting to be successful."
