[Intro: Skepta & a Waiter]

You alright there mate, ready to order?

Yeah, can I have um, can I have a hot choc-, nah actually can I have a, can I have a tea yeah, please

And um, an English breakfast

Full English? Bacon? Sausages?

Nah, nah, nah, no pork, no pork, nah I don't want no pork


[Verse 1]

This little piggy thinks I don't wanna bring him

'Cause I got beats I don't wanna give him

Boy Better Know makin' a killin'

So I don't wanna step up on a riddim with him

Life used to be hard but now I can't lie man are sitting in my front room just chilling

Everybody laughing, smiling, grinning

'Dem man are losing, us man are winning

This little piggy thinks that I weren't robbing

That I never had food and I weren't shottin'

Alright let's get this ting poppin'

One gun, one bullet and I put him on it

Life used to be hard but now I can't lie man are like, "Wagwarn, let's go shopping"

Boy Better Know, still chart topping

Forget a red light, manaman ain't stoppin'


[Hook]

I want an English breakfast

Pass me a knife and a fork

One tea, one hash brown, baked beans and eggs

But I don't wanna see no pork

I want an English breakfast

Pass me a knife and a fork

One tea, one hash brown, baked beans and eggs

But I don't wanna see no pork


[Verse 2]

This little piggy think's he's scary

I told him not a lot of things scare me

I'm in the mirror screaming Bloody Mary

With all the bloody mandem right near me

My man are united like Giggs, I will never leave my young gunners like Thierry

Wow, that metaphor's scary

Let me say that again, listen up

I said my man are united like Giggs, I will never leave my young gunners like Thierry

Sometimes I think man don't hear me

Since early number 1, sincerely

Lyrically, there's nobody near me

I'm a beast, look at my arms, they're hairy

In a party, I spit loud and clearly

It goes off, trust me the flow's dairy


[Hook]

I want an English breakfast

Pass me a knife and a fork

One tea, one hash brown, baked beans and eggs

But I don't wanna see no pork

I want an English breakfast

Pass me a knife and a fork

One tea, one hash brown, baked beans and eggs

But I don't wanna see no pork


[Verse 3]

This little piggy thinks that I like him

That I listen to his songs and I bite him

Somebody better advise him, stop piping the white ting on a hype ting

I don't know what makes them think I think about their shit bars when I'm writing

You man over there ain't vibsing

You do your ting, I do my ting

This little piggy thinks that he's on it

'Cause he got a CD full of grease on it

He's not a badboy, I'll put P's on it

Every last penny in my LV wallet

I love my hood 'till I stop breathing but sitting in the hood don't make me profit

A lot of these MC's make me vomit

Talk about real but you're far from it


[Hook]

I want an English breakfast

Pass me a knife and a fork

One tea, one hash brown, baked beans and eggs

But I don't wanna see no pork

I want an English breakfast

Pass me a knife and a fork

One tea, one hash brown, baked beans and eggs

But I don't wanna see no pork

I want an English breakfast (Skepta)

Pass me a knife and a fork (Boy Better Know)

One tea, one hash brown, baked beans and eggs

But I don't wanna see no pork (doinitagain.com)

I want an English breakfast

Pass me a knife and a fork (Yeah)

One tea, one hash brown, baked beans and eggs

But I don't wanna see no pork

Boy Better Know
