Lyrics

Hot oil pop
Paper bag drop
You smell that, Yeah

You say mandu, you say gyoza
Same fold, just different posta
Pan-fried, steamed, I've seen it twice
Different name, but it's the same bite
Soy sauce drip, little neat line
Yeah it's good, but it ain't mine
You can plate it, dress it clean
Still not touching what I mean

You talk big, but I don't blink
I already know who's king

Lumpia is king
Lumpia is king
Hear that crunch when the wrappers sing
Lumpia is king
Lumpia is king
Every bite got a golden ring
Long and folded, dumplings golded
Say it once, now say the thing
Lumpia is king
Lumpia is king
Lumpia
Is king

Bao buns soft, all puff and pride
Heavy hands and thick inside
Soup dumplings burst and drip
A hot mess I'd rather skip
Chopsticks lift, careful show
All that work just to let it go
You can hype it line by line
Still not hitting like mine

You build it up, I cut it quick
Crispy wins, that's just it

Lumpia is king
Lumpia is king
Hear that crunch when the wrappers sing
Lumpia is king
Lumpia is king
Every bite got a golden ring
Long and folded, dumplings golded
Say it once, now say the thing
Lumpia is king
Lumpia is king
Lumpia
Is king
Is king

Egg rolls thick, spring rolls light
Seen them both a thousand nights
One too heavy, one too thin
Neither got that perfect skin
Egg rolls dripping, grease runs through
Fillings lost in all that goo
Spring rolls fresh but taste like grass
I don't need a salad wrap

No debate, no in-between
You already know what I mean

Lumpia is king
Lumpia is king
Hear that crunch when the wrappers sing
Lumpia is king
Lumpia is king
Every bite got a golden ring
Long and folded, dumplings golded
Say it once, now say the thing
Lumpia is king
Lumpia is king
Lumpia
Is king

Wrap it, roll it, drop it, fry
Watch it bubble, watch it rise
Filipino heat, flavor never lies
Every table loud when the tray arrives
Flip it, lift it, don't blink slow
Golden crown in a paper fold

King
King
King
King

King
King
King
King

King
King
King
King
King
King
King
King

Lumpia is king
Lumpia is king
Hear that crunch when the wrappers sing
Lumpia is king
Lumpia is king
Every bite got a golden ring
Long and folded, dumplings golded
Say it once, now say the thing
Lumpia is king
Lumpia is king
Lumpia
Is king

Paper bag
Oil stain
King of the game
