“Waste,” featuring the British dancehall queen Lady Chann, is a reggae-inspired defiance against a toxic ex-friend. Lily recounts the bloom of their relationship, and the betrayal and hostility that lead to Lily’s disapproval of them.
The song was first performed live with Lady Chann in August 2017...
[Verse 1: Lily Allen]
You played more than a feature
Back then when I was, pleased to meet you
You were on my team
You were a bobber and a weaver
You're just a pagan now, non believer
[Pre-Chorus: Lily Allen]
You're all about yourself
No one else
[Chorus: Lily Allen]
Who the fuck are you though?
I should have never ever, ever let you get too close
If the truth be told
I can't wait to see you go
Can't wait to see you break, break, break, break, break, break
Breaking your back
'Cause all you do is take, take, take, take, take, take
Never give back
[Verse 2: Lily Allen]
Big deal, I'm blessed
Keep talking, I'm unimpressed
You're way too out of your depth
My time will not be invested
You've changed
You used to be my friend
But I don’t know you, no
Went too far, can't undo
The things you've done, they put me through hell
[Pre-Chorus: Lily Allen]
You only care about yourself
No one else
[Chorus: Lily Allen]
Who the fuck are you though?
I should have never ever, ever let you get too close
If the truth be told
I can't wait to see you go
Can't wait to see you break, break, break, break, break, break
Breaking your back
'Cause all you do is take, take, take, take, take, take
Never give back
Can't wait to see you break, break, break, break, break, break
Breaking your back
'Cause all you do is take, take, take, take, take, take
Never give back
[Bridge: Lady Chann]
Yo, look pon your face
You dirty stinking waste
Member dem times when you deh pon my case
Straight chase, me carry pepper-spray mace
You're done for now you better tie your shoelace
Waste!
You comin last in di race
You're no one my lord, you don't even have the ace
Nah, mate
It's just all too late
Back up, back up, nah bodda come my way
When you check it it was all so phoney
Nuf gal yah have ya really tink seh mi lonely?
Whole heap a man I call my homie
Me give dem di wok and keep them moanin'
[Chorus: Lily Allen]
Who the fuck are you though?
I should have never ever, ever let get you too close
If the truth be told
I can't wait to see you go
Can't wait to see you break, break, break, break, break, break
Breaking your back
'Cause all you do is take, take, take, take, take, take
Never give back
Can't wait to see you break, break, break, break, break, break
Breaking your back
'Cause all you do is take, take, take, take, take, take
Never give back
