Lady Sovereign
- My England Lyrics
It ain't about the tea and
biscuits, I'm one of those English misfits,
I don't drink tea I drink
spirits, and I talk alot of slang in my lyrics,
These goes a horse, horses
for courses, nah more like corpses on corners,
And Staffordshire Bull Terriers
and late night crawlers,
Polics carry guns not truncheons,
make your on assumptions,
London ain't all crumpets
and trumpets, it's one big slum pit.
[Chorus]
We ain't all posh like the
queen, we ain't all squeaky clean,
Now do the Tony Blair, throw
your hands in the air now everytwhere,
We ain't all posh like the
queen, we ain't all squeaky clean,
Now do the Tony Blair, throw
your hands in the air now everytwhere,
This is the picture I painted
my low down, This my London that I call my home twon,
It's where I'm living and
this is my low down,
This is my England I'm letting
you know now,
No I don't watch the Antiques
Roadshow, I'd rather listen Run the Road,
And smoke someone's fresh
homegrown,
And not get bloated on a
plate of scones,
Cricket, bowls, croquet,
nah PS2 all the way, in an English council apartment,
We don't all wear bowler
hats and hire servants,
More like 24 hour surveillance
and dog shit on pavements,
[Chorus]
We ain't all posh like the
queen, we ain't all squeaky clean,
Now do the Tony Blair, throw
your hands in the air now everytwhere,
We ain't all posh like the
queen, we ain't all squeaky clean,
Now do the Tony Blair, throw
your hands in the air now everytwhere,
This is the picture I painted
my low down,
This my London that I call
my home town,
It's where I'm living and
this is my low down,
This is my England I'm letting
you know now,
Big up Oliver Twist, lettingus
know the nitty gritty of what London really is,
It ain't all pretty, deal
with the realness, it's all gritty, deal with the realness,
Ohh the changing of the
Queen's guard, that's nothing for me to come out of the house form
Tra la la, I'd rather sit
on my arse,
And have a glass of Chardonnay,
nah
We ain't all Briget Jones
clones, who say pardon me,
More like gwanin mate, You
get me...
Now i can select a few,
paper people like to reject all my views,
Well I'm letting you know
the news and
well, this is the straight
up truth,
[Chorus]
We ain't all posh like the
queen, we ain't all squeaky clean,
Now do the Tony Blair, throw
your hands in the air now everytwhere,
We ain't all posh like the
queen, we ain't all squeaky clean,
Now do the Tony Blair, throw
your hands in the air now everytwhere,
This is the picture I painted
my low down, This my London that I call my home twon,
It's where I'm living and
this is my low down,
This is my England I'm letting
you know now
