I like tricky's and go trains
I put rum in my lemonade
110 on the interstate
Eating crumpets and marmalade
Yeah I trip to my own beach
Panda slippers on two foot
I can walk on my hands too
Yeah boy I know wanna buy me a drink

You, you don't know shit about me
I'm a pimp, 24-7 on gin

You just keep on talking
Don't know what my name is
Ever since you walked in
Acting like your famous
You just keep on talking
Don't know what my name is
You don't know what my name is
You don't know what my name

Kay

I was awoken in the morning
By a fantastic aroma
If rhymes could kill I will put you in a coma
Da da ding ding what what ring a mobile phone-a
It's this guy named Drew
Hey he wants to come right over
Let 'em in, let 'em in, let 'em in, no way
Did he just called me Sarah when he knows my name is Kay
Yup, yup, giddy up, hit the road
That's what's up, that's what's up, that's what's s-s-s su' sunup

You just keep on talking
Don't know what my name is
Ever since you walked in
Acting like your famous
You just keep on talking
Don't know what my name is
You don't know what my name is
You don't know what my name
My name is

All the other kids in the schoolyard click
Asking stupid questions like
Who's that chick
That is Nova Scotian that you mad don't trip
I can spell it out just in case you forget

My name is
Kay, Ey ey ey ey ey
Kay, Ey ey ey ey ey
Kay, Ey ey ey ey ey
Kay

Tricky's and go trains
Rum in my lemonade
On the interstate
Crumpets and marmalade
