My England
Lyricist:Louise Harman, Gabriel Olegavich
It ain't about tea and biscuits I'm one of those English misfits I don't drink tea I drink spirits And I talk a lot of slang in my lyrics
There goes a horse, courses for horses Nah more like corpses on corners And Staffordshire Bull Terriers And late night crawlers
Police carry guns not truncheons Make your own assumptions London ain't all crumpets and trumpets It's one big slum pit
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 everywhere We ain't all squeaky clean, we ain't all posh like the queen Now do the Tony Blair, throw your hands in the air now everywhere
This is the picture I painted my low down This my London that I call my hometown It's where I'm living and this is my low down This is my England, I'm letting you know now
I don't watch the Antiques Roadshow I'd rather listen to Run the Road And smoke someone's fresh homegrown And not get bloated on a plate of scones
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Cricket, bowls, croquet, nah PS2 all the way In an English council apartment No, we don't all wear bowler hats and hire servants More like 24 hour surveillance and **** on the pavements
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 everywhere We ain't all squeaky clean, we ain't all posh like the queen Now do the Tony Blair, throw your hands in the air now everywhere
This is the picture I painted my low down This my London that I call my hometown 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 Showing us 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
Ooh the changing of the Queen's guard That's nothing for me to come out of the house for Tra la la I'd rather sit on my ****
Another glass of Chardonnay, nah We ain't all Bridget Jones clones Who say pardon me More like what's gwanin' mate, you get me
Now I can select a few [Incomprehensible]like to reject all my views Well, I'm letting you know the news and Well, this is the straight up truth
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 everywhere We ain't all squeaky clean, we ain't all posh like the queen Now do the Tony Blair, throw your hands in the air now everywhere
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 everywhere We ain't all squeaky clean, we ain't all posh like the queen Now do the Tony Blair, throw your hands in the air now everywhere
This is the picture I painted my low down This my London that I call my hometown It's where I'm living and this is my low down This is my England, I'm letting you know now
This is the picture I painted my low down This my London that I call my hometown It's where I'm living and this is my low down This is my England, I'm letting you know now
