A song about the perils of being a hard man featuring Ireland's cutest rappers TPM.

lyrics

Hard man lyrics: If you're a hard man this is what's going to happen to you because of Post Punk Podge and TPM. We are going to kill all the hard men then we will be the hard men. We're gonna start with Dundalk and then we're gonna move onto Limerick and there's no hard men in Dublin everyone knows that.
Walkin' round town like a crazed maniac. Out of the slammer a week and a half. Sellin' smack to kids oh you're really tough. Crime only pays til you're locked up. Pushin' round a buggy full of benzos. Snortin' all the profit right up your nose. Stabbin' people, robbin' people, beatin' em up. But one day you will realise enough is enough. When you're at a house party and you drop a yoke and the empathy becomes too much. You'll say "Why do I cry myself to sleep at night?" "Why Can't I live a better life?" and here is where the answers lie. You're only hard when You're friends are around. You're only tough when you're families in town. You're only hard when you're friends are around. You're only tough when you're families in town. Coz he's a hard man a hard man a real hard man. Coz he's a hard man a hard man a real hard man.
It is a hard man talk, a hard man gawk. A hard manwalk in the town of Dundalk. A hard man look they go round the gym. Don't ever grin if shows weakness within. Rollin' round the town like a modern John Wayne, don't let those tears fall out of your brain. "Oh all the boys do it so I must do it too. If you don't do it I will batter you." In the Chip shops and nightclubs you's always fight. Did your mammy never teach you how to be polite. Are ya feelin' left out are your guns too small. Do you find it hard sometimes to handle it all.
You're only hard when you're friends are around. You're only tough when you're families in town. You're only hard when you're friends are around you're only tough when you're families in town. Coz he's a hard man a hard man a real. Coz he's a hard man a hard man a real hard man.
A big man a small man an in between man. There are hard men from Dundalk to Japan. Some hard men like to wear hats. They always love dogs they never like cats. There could be a sound man who has a hard man friend. Who's grand durin' the week and he's hard all weekend and with the few drinks he likes to have a knock. So he punches young fellas and gets as stiff as a rock. If You're a hard men and you're thick all the time. Next time you're gettin' hard just think of this rhyme. Bein' tough is not always the right way to be. Bein soft sometimes is good for me.
You're only hard when you're friends are around. You're only tough when you're families in town. You're only hard when you're friends are around you're only tough when you're families in town. Coz he's a hard man a hard man a real hard man. Coz he's a hard man a hard man a real hard man. Coz he's a hard man a hard man a real hard man. Coz he's a hard man a hard man a real hard man.
