THIS ONE’S CALLED
DISTANT DREAMS, PT. 3 (TYSON FURY)
No one took me seriously
Until I became friends
No one took me seriously
Until I became friends
No one took me seriously
Until I became friends
No one took me seriously
Until I became friends
with Tyson Fury
Everybody laugh at me
But then
my best friend
Is Tyson Fury
my best friend
Is Tyson Fury
People laugh
When I walk
I take bus
Conductor thought evil thought
But then
my best friend
Is Tyson Fury
my best friend
Is Tyson Fury
One day -
Whilst delivery driver
I meet Tyson Fury
I meet Tyson Fury
He was lifting car tires above his head
With the cars still attached
The cars still attached to the tires
I delivered him an A-grade readymade
tree trunk
For him to chop with his axe
While he inspected
I sat in silence
I’m comfortable with silence
Then
He told me
He was best friends with Jason Mamoa
Jason Mamoa
Jason Mamoa
Jason Mamoa
Jason Mamoa
Jason Mamoa
Jason Mamoa
Jason Mamoa
Jason Mamoa
I said
I bet
they made
quite the pair
He said they did
He made hints
that he and Mamoa
were thinking
of starting a trio
Local to the area
He asked what I was doing later
I said not much, nacho, TV
He said why not come with me
Where I said
He said UFC
Ringside, high class, Las Vegas
I said,
my mother
requires daily care
He said to ask a friend
to help for the night
I said but you’re my only friend
Tyson Fury
Tyson Fury
Tyson Fury
Tyson Fury
Tyson Fury
Tyson Fury
Tyson Fury
Tyson Fury
But not out loud
Not yet
So,
I made arrangements,
Thanks to my mother
being quite excited
at the prospect
of a night
alone
Tyse asked -
How’d you like to travel?
I said
Concorde
Concorde it is
they said
Concorde it is
Concorde it is
Concorde it is
Concorde it is
Concorde it is
Concorde it is
Concorde it is
They went with my preference
That’s what real friends do
I went to Las Vegas
With Fury and Mamoa
Big ‘Dris met us at the entrance
I asked how long he’d been waiting
No time at all he said
Big Dris
Had made us
All
Our own
Crew jackets
If things weren’t official now
Then when would they be
But still
I kept my cool
I put mine on
Then
The lads
Started to high five me non stop
I let slip
That my hand hurt
Mamoa said
That’s just the feeling
Of the muscles
Getting stronger
Getting stronger
I can feel it
Getting stronger
Getting stronger
Getting stronger
I’m getting stronger
Getting stronger
I looked down
and my hand
had grown ten times the size
But all muscle
Cock of the walk I was
The jacket
had a lot of freedom
in the shoulders
Perfect
for the new
power pose,
I’d been working on
in my spare time
I showed the boys
They were impressedv
To say
The least
To say
The least
The fight was delayed
And then delayed
It was about to be cancelled
They were missing
A fighter
When news broke
The boys looked at me
I stepped into the ring
The cool way
I held the rope
with both hands
and flipped
over and in
over and into the ring
I let loose with all the karate I had
I took the belt home that night
Then Tyson Fury got serious with me
He said
He wanted me in his crew for life
But first
There’s a leap I’ll have to take
So we
flew
to
The Democratic Republic of the Congo
In a helicopter,
another one of the
lads,
Bruce Wayne,
Had put on
for us
Bruce,
I know him. Yeah
He’s a good guy
One of the lads.
He’s quite quiet.
Cos he’s lost his parents,
but
He’s a good guy
As we crested
I knew
what we were there to do
We touched down on
The Mikeno Volcano
As we stood at that precipice we all held hands
Without communicating
We levitated
One cubic inch off the Earth
Then
All as one
We swooped down
Down deep into the crevasse
Catching the wind just right
One body
One mass
Mid-flight, as we laughed a tear built up in my eye
It could have been the speed were going
So much air was hitting my eyeballs
But no, I think it was a tear
I felt at peace, accepted, one of the boys
Then Mamoa remembered he had forgotten to feed his lambs
We all agreed that we would pitch in
A man feeds his lambs after all
So well as a group we through on our cable knits
and rode back down the hill on our horses
Who’s

Who’s

Who’s
gonna carry
the boats
Who’s
gonna carry
the boats
