Goldie Lookin Chain - Eddie The Wrestler lyrics
[Goldie Lookin Chain - Eddie The Wrestler lyrics]
Choke slam, polish hammer, Doomsday device
Couple of Asian mists and a mandible claw
Eddie was way into wrestling
He was only young but he thought
It was the best thing
He used to love the Undertaker
And Irwin R shyster but he was only small
He didn't look like a fighter
Used to get bullied at school every day
He dreamt of doing body slams
And making them pay
Eddie was young Eddie made a vow
To be a wrestler some way, somehow
I got a story about a kid called Eddie
He had a special dream
Not a nightmare like Freddie
It all started on the silver screen
Thirteen, when he saw his first tag team
That night he dreamt of flying
Off the top rope
But he never told his friends
'cos he rarely ever spoke
It was secret, smelt it cooking like The Rock
But he kept his mouth shut and
Just dreamt of doing a headlock eddie, Eddie
When he was a boy Eddie had high hopes
He only felt at home when he
Was in between the ropes
Made a makeshift ring in
His mother's front room
He used to pretend he was
In the Legion Of Doom
When I told him 'bout Big Daddy
I nearly wrecked his world
That his real name was Shirley
But he wasn't a girl
He could've been a doctor
'cos he was brainier but he went to the
States to enter Wrestlemania
When most kids were chasing lager and wine
Eddie stayed at home alone and
Practiced on his clothesline
He kept on going
Didn't let the dream get cold
Kept watching all the videos
To learn the sleeperhold
Around this time kids were doing exams
But Eddie didn't care 'cos he had other plans
He hurt his younger brother with a DDT
As time went on it became his speciality
Iceman Eddie, Iceman Eddie
Eddie went to the USA to learn the ropes
Being taught by the best wrestlers
From coast to coast
Mastered all the moves on his
Path to be a man
His favourites were the double
Choke and the bodyslam
Soon enough Eddie was competing
He was devastating and all defeating
Known to his fans as Eddie The Iceman
But nobody knew Eddie had a plan
You saw it in Smackdown 1, 2 and 3
Training hard like his heroes that
He saw on TV one day he's kicking
Throwing punches and jabs
The next it's half-nelsons and Boston crabs
Smashed bricks with his head
And lifted up cars
Pushed his body to the limit
Didn't care about the scars
He sleeps on a bed made out of barbed wire
They may call him the Iceman but
I'd say he's on fire
