lyrics
Big Mac (Run Rate)
Can you hear it coming?
Blacker than the night
Brendan McCullum
Ready for a fight
Some people say, he should bat more overs
but he’s taking the pressure off the middle order
Keep The Rate Up
Keep The Rate Up
Keep The Rate Up - don’t worry about the rest
Keep The Rate Up - coz you’re the best
BIG MAC
Who’s coming in at first drop?
Oh, it’s Kane Williamson, I like it a lot
He’s not very big but he’s got a big heart
Pushing for them singles and that’s a good start
Keep The Rate Up
Keep The Rate Up
Keep The Rate Up - don’t worry about the rest
Keep The Rate Up - coz you’re the best
Coming atcha fuck David Warner
Hitting you for six, over cow corner
Late cuts, big bats big buts
Long off just watch straight six from Gups
It’s real it aint no fiction
Steyn get slain with dem field restirctions
Listin up, the way we telling it

Your out, but it aint your fault
