Cockney

You talk like a Brit but your accent sounds like shit
Your fluctuating Singlish still encrusted on your lips
32 degrees but you're dressing like it's ten
You're saying it's not getting to you just to play pretend

I heard the news you came back home with some artificial cockney
Was that a part of the curriculum
I hope you brought along the off-switch
I heard the news you came back home with some artificial cockney
I hope you brought along the antidote for your artificial cockney

You're back where you left
Make it sound like it's a shame
But your passport's still as red no matter what you try to feign
Bragging about your trips 'round the country here and there
The culture there's amazing
I don't really fucking care

I heard the news you came back home with some artificial cockney
Was that a part of the curriculum
I hope you brought along the off-switch
I heard the news you came back home with some artificial cockney
I hope you brought along the antidote for your artificial cockney

Four years abroad
That's all it takes to turn the local undergrad into another western fake
