Lyrics
[Start][Intro]
Rumbling belly, need a treat
Walking down the British street
Got my money in my hand
For the best food in the land
Verse 1
Woke up late with hunger pains
Racing through the drizzling rain
Need that pastry fix today
But my timing's gone astray
Pre-Chorus
I can see it just ahead
That red sign fills me with dread
Staff are moving to the door
Please stay open just once more
Chorus
Just missed the doors at Greggs
My stomach growls and begs
For that sausage roll I crave
But they've closed for the day
Post-Chorus
Oh no, oh no, oh no
Too late, too late, too slow
Verse 2
Ran down the high street fast
The queue was moving past
I watched them lock the door
As I stood there on the floor
Pre-Chorus
Pastry dreams up in smoke
This hunger is no joke
Missed my chance by a minute
Now I've got to live with it
Chorus
Just missed the doors at Greggs
My stomach growls and begs
For that sausage roll I crave
But they've closed for the day
Post-Chorus
Oh no, oh no, oh no
Too late, too late, too slow[Bridge]
Standing in the rain
Staring through the pane
At all those pastries left
I'm feeling so bereft
Verse 3
Tomorrow I'll arrive
At half past seven-five
I'll be first in the queue
For that pastry, yes it's true
Chorus
Just missed the doors at Greggs
My stomach growls and begs
For that sausage roll I crave
But they've closed for the day
Outro
Never again, never again
I'll set my alarm for then
Sausage roll, you will be mine
Just you wait till opening time
End
