[Spoken: Earl of Grantham]
Perfectly acceptable
And if His Grace doesn’t like it, he can lump it
[Verse 1]
I'm in the house, or I'm in your estate
Cause I'm back for this inheritance; I just can't wait
Mo' money, mo' problems, the Titanic sunk
Messed up your entail and the clock began to run
Cause I never had a son, just three young ladies
Married overseas so her father could pay me
To keep my high Yorkshire life, I fell in love with my wife
It's kinda nice, and you know, I'd like to stay here
Got a butler, housekeepers, footmen and valets
Daughters get the benefit of many housemaids
And if you ring out of town, then the cook can make a feast
And we gather in the library, sip some fresh tea
I run the village with the early twentieth century game
And everywhere I turn, [?] they knowin' my name
I'm the Earl, got you people all hooked on this feature
I run this rap game like it's Masterpiece Theatre
[Hook]
Now, if you're from where I'm from, then you call it Downton
In the house like Lord Grantham, that's the damn anthem
With a high life in the Abbey we run
And we sip Earl Grey when the day is done
And if you're from where I'm from, then you call it Downton
In the house like Lord Grantham, that's the damn anthem
With a high life in the Abbey we run
And we sip Earl Grey when the day is done
[Verse 2]
I got a black heart like Mary, ladies, stay wary
Mind like Matt Crawley, eyes bigger than all these
Lips sharp like Edith and progressive like Sybil
An' I leave 'em like Pamuk if these rappers try to quibble
And I don't give a (what?) like the Dowager Countess
I don't get the weekend; never sit around the house
[?] steady on my grind and work like a serf
Cause I'm tryin' to do my thing, stead'ly proving my worth
Imma ask Carson to go an' bring me a drink
In the meantime, ask him what exactly he thinks
About these haters all around me, gossiping snakes
Like Mrs. O'Brien and Thomas when they're on a smoke break
I got hopes for the future. [?], they raised me
Young'uns are still learning the ropes, like Miss Daisy
I'm hoping to settle down and find my place
But for now, you know we work so we can keep our estate
[Hook]
Now, if it wasn't for the law, this drama piece prob'ly
Never would be going on
So tell me, where you from?
