Lyrics

[Intro: Shabba Ranks] Ting-a-ling a ling School bell a ring Knife and fork ah fight fi dumpling Booyaka! Booyaka! call for Shabba Rankin Shabba Ranks disappear and tear another man chin (true!) [Verse 1: Little Simz] Ring them bells on my behalf and right now They will know about when I enter Cause I'ma make the game just lie down That's not arrogance, it's just confidence And I'm confident in my sound I'ma try in lock down the whole world (ting-a-ling a ling) But first, I gotta lock down my hometown I come in, I've got a show and I'm on at 9 So ring them bells when I come through and they know it's time The music will speak for itself and I know it's fine See there's a fine line between the fine I'm not your ordinary rapper Leave 'em in panic, saying I'm way too behind Little Simz I gotta catch up Steady climbing, that's without the help of a ladder Ring them bells, now this is more than a naija matter And it goes [Hook: Shabba Ranks and Little Simz] (Ting-a-ling a ling) The Bells (Ting-a-ling a ling) The Bells (Ting-a-ling a ling) The Bells (Ting-a-ling a ling) Better keep them ringing (Ting-a-ling a ling) The Bells (Ting-a-ling a ling) The Bells (Ting-a-ling a ling) The Bells (Ting-a-ling a ling) Better keep them ringing ah (Ting-a-ling a ling) [Post-hook: Little Simz] Saved by the last bell Can't crack through this hard shell, no It's that time so everybody be quiet Better keep them ringing Saved by the last bell Can't crack through this hard shell, no It's that time so everybody be quiet Better keep them ringing [Verse 2: Little Simz] Oh! Better keep them ringing While you listen to the choir singing Give you that ever so soulful music Never transformed into sinning Glorifying the praises Get lost in the music like you're going through mazes Improving performances just by going through stages Growing into a woman, I be going through changes (ting-a-ling a ling) It will be something amazing I feel And that's deep down Think about it before you speak out These bars are made out of gold But I left that wooden flo' up in the tree house Shout out to everyone that reached out Yeah, I see all of you They say, "Simz, never let them get bored of you." I say, "Don't worry about that." I order you To ring the bell [Hook: Shabba Ranks and Little Simz] (Ting-a-ling a ling) The Bells (Ting-a-ling a ling) The Bells (Ting-a-ling a ling) The Bells (Ting-a-ling a ling) Better keep them ringing (Ting-a-ling a ling) The Bells (Ting-a-ling a ling) The Bells (Ting-a-ling a ling) The Bells (Ting-a-ling a ling) Better keep them ringing ah (Ting-a-ling a ling) [Post-hook: Little Simz] Saved by the last bell Can't crack through this hard shell, no It's that time so everybody be quiet Better keep them ringing Saved by the last bell Can't crack through this hard shell, no It's that time so everybody be quiet Better keep them ringing [Verse 3: Little Simz] I pray I never have my father's aim But my mother's love and that will keep me sane I go far away, you'll never see it Seeing doesn't make it real, you gotta believe it Always be the giving and one day you'll receive it I just wanna change lives and I will achieve it Come a long way from the youth club to the big stage (Ting-a-ling a ling) And I still got more and ready to go Let me get in my zone, I would rather be all alone Made in the UK, I'm telling 'em watch the throne You ain't coming with; No problem, I go alone Take a hit, cloud nine; I'm blown When I come through, I part the sea Like Moses, I'm focused I am the driving force of my career With no seatbelts, so I harnessed my fears Let 'em know, I've arrived I'm here, so ring the bell [Hook: Shabba Ranks and Little Simz] (Ting-a-ling a ling) The Bells (Ting-a-ling a ling) The Bells (Ting-a-ling a ling) The Bells (Ting-a-ling a ling) Better keep them ringing (Ting-a-ling a ling) The Bells (Ting-a-ling a ling) The Bells (Ting-a-ling a ling) The Bells (Ting-a-ling a ling) Better keep them ringing ah (Ting-a-ling a ling) [Post-hook: Little Simz] Saved by the last bell Can't crack through this hard shell, no It's that time so everybody be quiet Better keep them ringing Saved by the last bell Can't crack through this hard shell, no It's that time so everybody be quiet Better keep them ringing
