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
