Dizzee Rascal – Wanna Be lyrics

(feat. Lily Allen)

(Alright Mate)
[Lily:]
So You Wanna Be A Gangster
Tell Me Just One Thing
What You Know About Being A Hardman
You Mum Buys Your Bling

Your Pockets Getting Bigger
But You Couldn't Pull The Trigger
If You Need To
Cos You haven't Got It
So You Might As Well Quit

[Dizzee:]
I'm Moving,
Couldn't Be Losing
Nothing But A Success
Think I'm Proving, Nothing
To You Half Weight Wasters
Standing There Yap Yap Yapping On Cruising
Nobodys Dictates What I'm Choosing
Where I Go What I Do With My Life Stupid
And I Hold I'm Own I'm (Rasting)
You Better Watch Your Tongue You Spastic
Allow It, Your Not Heartless
Nothing But Alot Of Hot Air Your Harmless
I Keep Getting My Paper Regardless
You Words don't Phase Me I'm Marvelous
Age 22 Zero Tolerance
And I Aint Got No Time For The Nonsense
You Wanna See Me Come To My Concerts
Or We Can Do It On Stage With An Audience

[Lily:]
So You Wanna Be A Gangster
Tell Me Just One Thing (Tell Me Just One Thing)
What You Know About Being A Hardman
You Mum Buys Your Bling (What!)

Your Pockets Getting Bigger
But You Couldn't Pull The Trigger
If You Need To (No)
Cos You Haven't Got It (No)
So You Might As Well Quit (Ha Ha Ha)

[Dizzee:]
Beef, Straps, Cuts, Glory
All These High Bredders In The Club Adore Me
I Wish When I Come Through They Ignore Me
I Really can't Deal With Another War Story
Bredders In My Face With A Fist Full Of Paper
Trying To Make Out There A Big Money Maker
Talking All Loud (Something)
And I Got Time Rude Boi's See You Later
And I can't Forget These Groupies Following
Front And Rear And Right There Hollering
Yeah I Know I Shouldn't Be Complaining
But These Jezzabelles Do My Brain In

[Lily:]
I Aint No Groupie, Who You Calling Jezzabelle?
Don't Chat To Me Like I'm Just Any Girl.
(Allow, Security Somebody Move Her)
I don't Wanna Talk To You Anyway Loser!
So You Wanna Be A Gangster
Tell Me Just One Thing (Tell Me Just One Thing)
What You Know About Being A Hardman
You Mum Buys Your Bling (What)

Your Pockets Getting Bigger
But You Couldn't Pull The Trigger
If You Need To (No)
Cos You Haven't Got It (No)
So You Might As Well Quit (Ha Ha Ha)

That Whip don't Make You A Big Man (Na M8)
That Chain don't Make You A Big Man (Na M8)
I Know You Think Your A Big Man (what M8)
But Really Your Just A Wasteman

That Whip Don't Make You A Big Man (Na M8)
That Chain Don't Make You A Big Man (Na M8)
I Know You Think Your A Big Man (what M8)
But Really Your Just A Wasteman (Ha Ha Ha)

[Dizzee:]
Let Me Rap It Up While I Still Got Time
Aint Nobody Telling Me About No Grime
Now I Know Where I Stand Whether I'm Fine
Hand Over Fist I'm Handling Mine
Everybody Chattin Bout Black On Black Crime
All I See Is The Blind Leading The Blind
Try To Leave All The Pettiness Behind
You don't Wanna See Me Cross Dat Line
Leave Me Alone Or You'll Be Sorry
Beef Aint Nothing New To Me You Wally
Why don't You Just Kick Back Be Jolly
Stay At Home With A Cuppa Tea Watch Corrie
I'm Not Listening Anyway Man
Who Rattled Your Cage Anyway Man
Aint No Slacking With This Young Man
Do What I Gotta Do Everyday Fam

[Lily:]
So You Wanna Be A Gangster
Tell Me Just One Thing (Tell Me Just One Thing)
What You Know About Being A Hardman
You Mum Buys Your Bling (What!)

Your Pockets Getting Bigger
But You Couldn't Pull The Trigger
If You Need To (No)
Cos You Haven't Got It (No)
So You Might As Well Quit (Ha Ha Ha)

So You Wanna Be A Gangster
Tell Me Just One Thing (Tell Me Just One Thing)
What You Know About Being A Hardman
You Mum Buys Your Bling (What!)

Your Pockets Getting Bigger
But You Couldn't Pull The Trigger
If You Need To (No)
Cos You Haven't Got It (No)
So You Might As Well Quit
So You Might As Well Quit
So You Might As Well Quit
(Ha Ha Ha Ha)
