Problem Lyrics

[Intro: Ariana Grande & Iggy Azalea]
Uh-huh
It's Iggy Iggz
I got one more problem with you, girl, ayy
(One less, one less problem)

[Verse 1: Ariana Grande]
Hey, baby, even though I hate ya
I wanna love ya (I want you-ou-ou)
And even though I can't forgive ya
I really want to (I want you-ou-ou)
Tell me, tell me, baby
Why can't you leave me?
'Cause even though I shouldn't want it
I gotta have it (I want you-ou-ou)

[Pre-Chorus: Ariana Grande]
Head in the clouds, got no weight on my shoulders
I should be wiser and realize that I've got

[Chorus: Big Sean & Ariana Grande]
One less problem without ya
I got one less problem without ya
I got one less problem without ya
I got one less, one less problem
One less problem without ya
I got one less problem without ya
I got one less problem without ya
I got one less, one less problem

[Verse 2: Ariana Grande]
I know you're never gonna wake up
I gotta give up (But it's you-ou-ou)
I know I shouldn't ever call back
Or let you come back (But it's you-ou-ou)
Every time you touch me
And say you love me
I get a little bit breathless
I shouldn't want it (But it's you-ou-ou)

[Pre-Chorus: Ariana Grande]
Head in the clouds, got no weight on my shoulders
I should be wiser and realize that I've got

[Chorus: Big Sean & Ariana Grande]
One less problem without ya
I got one less problem without ya
I got one less problem without ya
I got one less, one less problem
One less problem without ya
I got one less problem without ya (Ooh, babe)
I got one less problem without ya (Ooh, woah)
I got one less, one less problem

[Interlude: Iggy Azalea]
It's Iggy Iggz
Uh, what you got?

[Verse 3: Iggy Azalea]
Smart money, bettin' I'll be better off without you
In no time, I'll be forgettin' all about you
You sayin' that you know, but I really, really doubt you
Understand, my life is easy when I ain't around you
Iggy Iggy, too biggie to be here stressin'
I'm thinkin' I love the thought of you more than I love your presence
And the best thing now is probably for you to exit
I let you go, let you back, I finally learned my lesson
No half-steppin', either you want it or you just playin'
I'm listenin' to you knowin' I can't believe what you sayin'
There's a million you's, baby boo, so don't be dumb
I got ninety-nine problems, but you won't be one, like what?

[Bridge: Ariana Grande]
Mm, yeah (One less, one less problem)
Mm, yeah (One less, one less problem)

[Pre-Chorus: Ariana Grande]
Head in the clouds, got no weight on my shoulders (One less, one less problem)
I should be wiser and realize that I've got (One less, one less problem)

[Chorus: Big Sean, Ariana Grande & Iggy Azalea]
One less problem without ya (Babe)
I got one less problem without ya (Oh no, babe)
I got one less problem without ya (Ooh)
I got one less, one less problem (Ooh, baby)
One less problem without ya (Yeah, I got)
I got one less problem without ya (Woo, hey)
I got one less problem without ya
I got one less, one less problem, babe (Woo)
One less problem without ya (Uh, hey)
I got one less problem without ya (Without you)
I got one less problem without ya (I got one less, one less, yeah)
I got one less, one less problem (Yeah)
