We built this city on sausage rolls
We built this city
We built this city on sausage rolls

If you've never had one
And don't recognise the taste
It's a cylindrical bit of pork wrapped
In a puff pastry case
Beige, baked and golden
Holier than grace
Grab it whilst it's piping hot
And shove it in your face

They are party-sized to foot-long
Listen to your belly groan
Don't you remember
We built this city
We built this city on sausage rolls
We built this city
We built this city on sausage rolls
We built this city
We built this city on sausage rolls

Christenings or birthdays
Or Uncle Jonny's wake
You'll find me at the buffet
Filling up my plate
A Ginsters on the M1
Greggs on platform three
I don't care where I'm eating it
Smash it with a cup of tea

They are party-sized to foot-long
Listen to your belly groan
Don't you remember
We built this city
We built this city on sausage rolls
We built this city
We built this city on sausage rolls
We built this city
We built this city on sausage rolls
