Trigger Bang Lyrics

[Verse 1: Giggs]
Grab a few grams and a few grand
Wrapped in elastic in the blue bands
You reach for handouts with your two hands
Who's that? We’re the cool gang
No hippy but it’s so sticky
I’m a old school nigga, fam, I know Zippy
Steamboat Willie like the old Mickey
Steamboat Willie, she gets the whole dicky
'06 ratchet, had the old flicky
'017, now I got the ho's strippin;
Lowkey bredda on the low, sippin’
You can be the cool gang, but nigga, no slippin’

[Pre-Chorus: Lily Allen]
And it fuels my addictions
Hanging out in this whirlwind
If you cool my ambitions
I’m gonna cut you out

[Chorus: Lily Allen]
That’s why I can’t hang with the cool gang
Everyone’s a trigger bang, bang, bang, bang, bang
Goodbye bad bones, I’ve got bigger plans
Gonna put myself in your hands

[Verse 2: Lily Allen]
When I was young I was blameless
Playing with rude boys and trainers
I had a foot in the rave 'cause I was attracted to danger
I never got home for Neighbours, hey
When I grew up, nothing changed much
Anything went, I was famous
I would wake up next to strangers
Everyone knows what cocaine does
Numbing the pain when the shame comes, hey

[Pre-Chorus: Lily Allen]
And it fuels my addictions
Hanging out in this whirlwind
If you cool my ambitions
I’m gonna cut you out

[Chorus: Lily Allen]
That’s why I can’t hang with the cool gang
Everyone’s a trigger bang, bang, bang, bang, bang
Goodbye bad bones, I’ve got bigger plans
Gonna put myself in your hands
That’s why I can’t hang with the cool gang
Everyone’s a trigger bang, bang, bang, bang, bang
Goodbye bad bones, I’ve got bigger plans
Gonna put myself in your hands

[Verse 3: Lily Allen]
Back in the day like at Yo-Yo
Then in L.A. at the Chateau
Someone would say, "Did you bang, no?"
I shake my head, I say, "No-no"
Maybe we did, I don’t think so, hey
I need to move on and grow some
Been in the Firehouse for too long
LDN's burning, so tan one
I’m gonna love you and leave some
I’m gonna go out while I’m still strong, hey

[Pre-Chorus: Lily Allen]
And it fuels my addictions
Hanging out in this whirlwind
If you cool my ambitions
I’m gonna cut you out

[Chorus: Lily Allen]
That’s why I can’t hang with the cool gang
Everyone’s a trigger bang, bang, bang, bang, bang
Goodbye bad bones, I’ve got bigger plans
Gonna put myself in your hands
That’s why I can’t hang out with the cool gang
Everyone’s a trigger bang, bang, bang, bang, bang
Goodbye bad bones, I’ve got bigger plans
Gonna put myself in your hands

What inspired this song?

I was just starting to make this new record in Los Angeles. We made a makeshift studio in this house in Laurel Canyon, and I was really nervous about going back to the U.K. I had just turned 30, and I’ve got kids, and I had a bit of a turbulent time on the tour coming off the back of my last record....

How did Lily connect with Fryars?

Weirdly enough, it started about 12 years ago on Myspace. He was 16 or something, and he was a fan of mine,. I made these mix tapes on CD’s, like they were limited edition. I used to spray paint the covers and send them out to people in the little jiffy bags, and he was one of those people. I always...

My second album, I worked with this guy called Greg Kurstin for the whole entirety of the record, and I was looking for the person to be my partner in writing for this record.

How did Lily connect with Giggs?

Me and Giggs met many, many years ago, but we didn’t really connect the first time we met. It was just sort of in passing. Then the second time we met was at a festival in the U.K. I was playing, and I had just off stage and I was in my dressing room doing my warm-downs. There was a knock on the dre...
