Текст песни Backbone - BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge - JADE

Uh-oh, joke's on you
Heard you tried to ring, but it never went through, yeah
You're blocked, your friends are too
I'm out with the lasses, we're not looking for recruits
Uh-oh, who's on what?
Don't tell my brother 'cause he might come and knock, yeah
What we buying? Everything you got
Tell them little haters that we'll take the whole lot

You ain't got no backbone

I do it for the lads and the lasses at home
I don't do it to please the CEOs
They're a little bit relentless, so I'm letting them all know
Used to give them high-fives, now it's just the middle finger, ah
Proper show-stopper, now you know that I'm a winner
They think I'm a pop star, I think I'm a singer
Written more hooks than you've had (roast dinners)
This ain't southern fried, I'm a Northern girl (out of South Shields)

This is Chase and status, this is Stormzy with the Jade feel
For a goal like I'm Alan Shearer wearing brown ale
Ever seen a Mackem in Milan? (Doesn't sound real)
Gimme something then, gimme something if you're bad
You can call me Jade, and I'm here to leave you gagged
Angel of your dreams, the fantasy you can have
I need to start my sentences with "Sorry, may I add?"

You ain't got no backbone
Ah-ah-ah, yeah-ah
You ain't got no backbone
Ah-ah, yeah-yeah

Uh-oh, what's the tea?
Said you're not a fan, but you still follow me, yeah
That's hot, a hundred degrees
You know I'm the next main pop girlie
Uh-oh, who knows me?
British, African, and a little bit Middle East, yeah
Here's a lesson, Arabic for free
Tell them little haters that I'm proud and Yemeni

Yeah, ليس لديك عمود فقري, uh
Ooh, ooh
You ain't got no backbone
Ooh, ooh

Gimme something then, gimme something, I'm a diva
My mother calls me Jade, but I think I'm Queen of Sheba
Clutching all the pearls, making all of you believers
You're gonna hear plenty more Jade through your speaker
