Throughout “Silver Spoon” Lily dispels perhaps the most common criticism directed towards her: that she only made it in the music industry because of a highly-privileged upbringing and connections from her celebrity father.
Lily addresses these criticisms in an ironic and sarcastic manner, using th...
[Verse 1]
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?
[Pre-Chorus]
(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...
[Chorus]
Do we have to keep talking about where you think it is I'm from?
And Imma 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
[Verse 2]
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 ya
I'm from west eleven, and when it's over
I'm going straight to heaven in a Range Rover
[Pre Chorus]
(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...
[Chorus]
Do we have to keep talking about where you think it is I'm from?
And Imma 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
[Bridge]
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 can you repeat the question?
Doing my thing I'm just keeping my head down and...
[Chorus]
Do we have to keep talking about where you think it is I'm from?
And Imma 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
[Outro]
And Imma 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 Imma make you see
You don't know me, you don't know me
No things never change, no telling some people
