"Silver Spoon" lyrics

"Silver Spoon"

So I went to posh school
Why would I deny it?
Silver spoon at the ready
So don't even try it
Yeah the house I grew up in it was Georgian
Ten bedrooms, beautiful proportions
Can't say that life isn't easy
Double negative: can't nothing please me?
Only made it here
'Cause of my daddy
Fuck your tea bags
Yo, where's my tea caddy?

(This life, that life)
Life isn't fair but we're all gon' try
(Not fair, it's not right)
Doing my thing I'm just
Keeping my head down and

Do we have to
Keep talking about
Where you think it is I'm from?
And I'ma make you see
You don't know me
You don't know me
No, things never change
No telling some people
I cannot believe
I'm still here
Still telling you that you're wrong
And aren't you losing sleep?
You don't know me
You don't know me
No, things never change
No telling some people

So I got a trust fund, so what am I doing?
Buying property, can't be bothered with the viewings
I'm getting hungry, could you fetch my butler?
Step back I couldn't be any humbler
Sucked dick, got signed to a major
I'll do anything just to entertain you
I'm from West eleven, and when it's over
I'm going straight to Heaven, in a Range Rover

(This life, that life)
Life isn't fair but we're all gon' try
(Not fair, it's not right)
Doing my thing I'm just
Keeping my head down and

Do we have to
Keep talking about
Where you think it is I'm from?
And I'ma make you see
You don't know me
You don't know me
No, things never change
No telling some people
I cannot believe
I'm still here
Still telling you that you're wrong
And aren't you losing sleep?
You don't know me
You don't know me
No, things never change
No telling some people

You don't know me
You don't know me
No, things never change
No telling some people

'Round and 'round again (Oh, oh)
Please could you repeat the question?
Driving 'round the bend (Oh, oh)
I've heard it all before, and then some
'Round and 'round again (Oh, oh)
Please could you repeat that question?

Doing my thing I'm just
Keeping my head down and

Do we have to
Keep talking about
Where you think it is I'm from?
And I'ma make you see
You don't know me
You don't know me
No, things never change
No telling some people
I cannot believe
I'm still here
Still telling you that you're wrong
And aren't you losing sleep?
You don't know me
You don't know me
No, things never change
No telling some people

And I'ma make you see
You don't know me
You don't know me
No, things never change
No telling some people

And aren't you losing sleep?
You don't know me
You don't know me
No, things never change
No telling some people

And I'ma make you see
You don't know me
You don't know me
No, things never change
No telling some people
