Gonna mock me ‘cause o’ me accent, are ya?“ [Verse 1] Everywhere I go, it’s “Bottl' oh woah-ah” here, They take the mick, like it’s somethin’ rare. “Oh, say it again!” they love to sneer, Like I’m speakin’ Martian, like it’s hard to hear. [Pre-Chorus] It’s woah-ah, not “wot-ter,” mind yer ear, Same ol’ sounds year after year. I’m just bein’ British, keepin’ it right, Proper words, love, that’s me plight! [Chorus] Bottl' oh woah-ah, bottl' oh woah-ah, Say it slow, you’ll find it shorter! Can’t help it, love, it’s how we speak, Sounds posh, sounds fun, sounds cheek-to-cheek! (Oi, what’s the fuss?) It’s just me, it’s just us! [Verse 2] They mock me tea, me cuppa at noon, They think I’m sayin’ words out the tune. “Oh, how posh!” or “What’d she mean?” Like British slang is somethin’ obscene! [Build Up] You want it clear? Well, that’s a laugh, Just try to say “Baff” – not “Baaaath!” [Bridge] I say “garage,” you say “gar-AHJ,” I say “scone” while you just barge. It’s language, love, just have a sip, Stop actin’ like you’re on a trip. [Chorus] Bottl' oh woah-ah, bottl' oh woah-ah, It’s smooth, it’s quick, it’s got some slaughter! Can’t help it, love, it’s how we be, British slang with a sip o’ tea. (Oi, what’s the fuss?) It’s just me, don’t make a fuss! [Outro] „So, go on then – next time, you say “woah-ah” proper, yeah? Cheers, love!“
