M.I.A - 27 Club

I'm sure you've heard the sad news of the passing of Amy Winehouse. Shit is sad and crazy as fuck that there is another singer to add to the 27 club. M.I.A has unveiled an unfinished demo that was initially intended to land on her Vickileekx mixtape. She dedicated this tune “to all my friends that died at 27.” It's pretty nice.

27 by _M_I_A_

Take a look at the lyrics

said your all mouth and no brains

all rock stars go to heaven

you said you’ll be dead at 27 seven

when we drunk in a English tavern

the owner poured you the Bourbon

and you drunk your self so rotten

so he got so rich he bought a Bentley

and moved himself to Devon

you started dirty dancing

and you bar tended a dozen

i took you to the clinic

to get you clean but you couldn’t

said in 2 days ur 27 and and ur destiny was comin

so ur papa passed so sudden

and left you with lil somin

you blew that money on a mountain of drugs

and staged your self a bed in

a month later when i popped in

your still high but the winter set in

i bought you a coffee and a muffin

and you quoted me some Lenin

i wished i was that clever

but thats what kept me coming

your friendship did mean somin

but you left me for nothin

when i left, you befriended a rope

and i saw you both were hanging.

REST IN PARADISE AMY WINEHOUSE.
