lyrics

PIECE OF ME

You want a piece of me.
You want a piece of me.
You want a piece of life, you want a pizza slice,
Half price or free.
I not a piece of meat (No)
I'm piece of cake you want to keep but you still want to eat

Now my L.. L.. life the lies you keep selling me,
All of the talk and the tales you keep telling me
I'm having none of that you vagabonds
(not listening anyway)
Gonna get a kick before you get a forfeit
Don't forget to remember to ignore it
These things don't happen all at once.
(everybody anybody)

You want a piece of me
You want a piece of me
You wanna be on TV for 15 minutes of karaoke
You wanna be released
You wanna be free thats 65 years of being called a thief

Now my L.. L.. life the lies you keep selling me,
All of the talk and the tales you keep telling me
I'm having none of that you vagabonds
(not listening anyway)
Gonna get a kick before you get a forfeit
Don't forget to remember to ignore it
These things don't happen all at once.
(everybody anybody)
You want a piece of me
You want a piece of me yeah-yeah yeah-yeah

What time you gonna get in the mix
The news is on around about 6
Thats how you're gonna get your fix
I'm no conjurer of cheap tricks

sing na na-na na na-na na na-na-na-na
na na-na na na-na na na-na-na-
Now I'm havin' none of that you vagabonds
(not listening anyway)
Gonna get a kick before you get a forfeit
Don't forget to remember to ignore it
These things don't happen all at once.
(everybody anybody)
You want a piece of...

sing na na-na na na-na na na-na-na-na
na na-na na na-na na na-na-na-
Now I'm havin' none of that you vagabonds

Gonna get a kick before you get a forfeit
Don't forget to remember to ignore it
These things don't happen all at once.
(everybody anybody)

You want a piece of me
(you want it)
You piece of me yeah-yeah yeah-yeah
You want a piece of me
(you want it)
You want piece of...
