Rizzle Kicks Earl Grey

AlphabetLyrics.com

So now it's earl grey,
Now it's early grey and sugar,
I want earl grey, sugar and milk.
Tea, yes tea
It's a... simple pleasure
It's a very simple pleasure
But it's a pleasure I need
(Check yeah, yo)

It was the first of many challenges,
To try convince the masses that we're talented
In a world full of watermarked canvases
And radio's that don't play songs if there's a rap in it
And fame's instantaneously given
If your face is positioned where the mass of population is driven
People believe what the papers have written cause
Rarely does truth even many any difference (yeah)

We watch edited versions of other's lives,
To deal with the issues that we have another time.
Everything's an unpopularity contest,
If you're not voted out it's you that they want less
You can end your career in one tweet,
And child counsellors don't get enough sleep,
Professional footballers earn more in one week,
Than one of them earns in ten years at least
They're swept of their feet,
They don't wanna know now,
If they're listening or watching they just wanna zone out,
Know how,
We don't even know how to find our own mouth
When spoon fed a dose of being docile...

Yeah, so now it's... earl grey,
Now it's early grey and sugar,
Now it's earl grey, sugar and milk.
Tea, it's just tea
It's a... simple pleasure
It's a very simple pleasure
But it's a simple pleasure I need
(Check it)

Hoods up is a necessity
Cause when my hood's down you still think less of me,
Yeah it's one vicious circle
I'd rather keep my hood up to hide from all this negative energy,
It's no wonder our society is segregated,
When old people act surprised that I am educated,
Disgression should be thought more,
Rules mean nothing people love it when you break'em,
Cause people clap when you're bad,
People clap when you're good,
People cheer when they're told,
People laugh when they should,
People dream of a little more sleep
But go full throttle at the end of the week

So gimme that club beat with the same old topic,
I need to sing along while I drive to the office,
Tell me to dance or 'bout the money that you make,
So I can go to my desk and dream my life was the same,
But being in the spotlight's a dark place
Cause normality's a drug that you can't take
People drive hard for a shot at the fast lane,
It's only people from school that you can class mates,

Yeah, so now it's earl grey,
Now it's early grey and sugar,
Now it's earl grey, sugar and milk.
Yeah, just tea... tea
(Check it)
It's a... simple pleasure
It's a very, very... simple pleasure
But it's a simple pleasure I need
(Check it)

She's not smart but she's got a good heart,
It's not about the winner
It's who took part (yeah),
Tell the person who came last then they said they should laugh, haha,
(Haha, sorry, I got some more, leave it running, leave it running.)
(It's not about who took part)
Hold up... put down down,
You've got love by the bucket load,
Don't turn that noun upside down,
Don't frown (check it)
This train's like going out inside,
I just managed to get in with my side out,
It's really taking me somewhere,
Except standing means you don't fit in
Adhd drugs are like the latest hd plugs,
The ideas great but once you review the finer details you realize it's depressing,
Having too much of something isn't pleasant,
If I was born rich I'd kinda wish I was a peasant
Cause you learn a lot of lessons,
If I was jay z and beyonce,
I'd send blue ivy into the ghetto 'till she was like 11,
And then be like surprise you're a millionaire.
Yeah... that is... that is not a rhyme, that's just talking...

Yo, now listen,
All I'm saying is yo,
Now it's earl grey,
Now it's early grey and sugar,
So now it's earl grey, sugar and milk.
It's just tea... it's only tea,
It's a very simple pleasure
A very, very, very simple pleasure,
But it's a very simple pleasure I need,
And that's me
(Simple pleasure I need)
(I need this in my life,)
(I need it ohh-woah-woah-ohh)
(Keep it normal)
