A tasty shank of old school ska and dancehall, a generous twist of indie (be rude not to rudeboy!) a light splash of reggae, and garnished with a juicy slice of electro pop - voila! these lads whip up a tune as easy as Jamie Oliver making a meal out of the contents of a students fridge - you still with me?

Their music is said to sound like a stretchy, goo-ey mixture of The Specials...Outkast.....Madness.....De La Soul.....Gorillaz....The Streets and Blur. At a time when musicians take music way too seriously - these boys are gonna put the fun back into listenin to tunes. To understand what KID BRITISH are all about all you have to do is wash yer mouth out an listen up!

Elizabeth
Kid British Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Verse 1:

Oh Elizi,
When I have you my life shines up.

Elizabeth you buy me meals cos I can’t cook.

Elizi name one thing

You won’t buy me, constant frowns
Like boy, oh don’t try me

Elizabeth you let me have the latest fabrics
And that’s the main reason I love your tactics

Elizabeth you’re my sunshine,
And that’s why you’re always up on my mind.

Chorus:

Oh elizi
I can’t live without ya

Everyday
My life I’m talking bout ya

All
Of my friends they go on about ya

Elizi oh oh, elizi oh.

Verse 2:

Oh Elizabeth you know it’s
All about you

When you took me to
Paris you turned kinda
Blue

There’s no way I can do this
Without you

Because everywhere
You go you’re willing to change

At
The end of the month you always
Disappear

When I get paid somehow
You reappear

My mates love it
When you’re out on the town

Cos
You’re the one who always gets in
The first round

Chorus:

Oh elizi
I can’t live without ya

Everyday
My life I’m talking bout ya

All
Of my friends they go on about ya

Elizi oh oh, elizi oh.

Bridge:

Elizabeth you’re
My royal

Elizabeth your so
Sincere

I wanna have you all the
Time

I can’t survive when your
Not near

Elizabeth show me
Interest

Come on now just be
Fair

The deal here is so
Funny

Because Elizabeth is only
Money

Verse 3:

Oh
Elizabeth

I’m hating how your
Staying in my business

You always
Seem to disappear around
Christmas

We always do things her
Way

But I don’t mind if you stick
Around for my birthday

Elizabeth
(Elizabeth)

People say its you
I’m living off

Quite frankly just
Don’t give a toss

No matter the
Cost I know what’s what

I guess I
Need you to be posh.

Chorus (repeated till finish):

Oh elizi
I can’t live without ya

Everyday
My life I’m talking bout ya

All
Of my friends they go on about ya

Elizi oh oh, elizi oh.
