Freddie Laid the Smackdown - Jake Morley

Moving towns

11 years old at another new school now

Oh no well I wasn’t aware I’d be staring

Down the barrel of the proverbial gun

I’m eating school dinners when Matthew informs me

We’re fighting as soon as I’m done

I’m using lies to try and disguise that I’m far less worldly-wise

And Aaron’s been pushing me round

Since I skilled him up bad at 11-a-side

Oh no Freddie laid the smackdown

Oh no on the new kid in the new town

Oh no you can take your shots at me but you’ll never take a piece of my soul

On shaky ground

There’s nothing left to do but learn to dust yourself down

In lessons, Miss Beehag asks questions

I’m sure to be smiling and raising my hand

I’m pleased to be getting my A’s

But Jordan’s rubbing my face in the sand

If I wasn’t so shy I might notice that

Some of the girls in my class think I’m cute

But it’s tricky while chatting to Vicky

And the boys are trying to stick in the boot

Oh no Freddie laid the smackdown

Oh no on the new kid in the new town

Oh no you can take your shots at me but you’ll never take a piece of my soul

Earn my scars, heal my bones

Grown my legs grow some stones, move on elsewhere

You took your shots at me but you never took a piece of my

The school bell sounds

There’s nothing left to do but earn it on the playground

Oh no Freddie laid the smackdown

Oh no on the new kid in the new town

Oh no you can take your shots at me but you’ll never take a piece of my soul
