[Chorus: Wiley]
What would we do?
Usually drink, usually dance, usually bubble
All I want to do is tell you I love you
That's when I start promising the world
To a brand new girl I don't even know yet
Next thing she's wearing my Rolex
What would we do?
Usually drink, usually dance, usually bubble
All I want to do is tell you I love you
All I want to do is tell you I love you
[Verse 1: Wiley]
That's when I start promising the world
To a brand new girl I don't even know yet
Next thing she's wearing my Rolex
Too much champs don't know where my phone is
Here's my number, she already knows it
This chapter's a lot, better close it
Just the look in her eye was so evil
Wiley's a party guy and she knows it
[Chorus: Wiley]
What would we do?
Usually drink, usually dance, usually bubble
All I want to do is tell you I love you
That's when I start promising the world
To a brand new girl I don't even know yet
Next thing she's wearing my Rolex
What would we do?
Usually drink, usually dance, usually bubble
All I want to do is tell you I love you
All I want to do is tell you I love you
[Verse 2: Wiley]
That's when I start promising the world
To a brand new girl I don't even know yet
Next thing she's wearing my Rolex
What would we do?
What would we do?
All I want to do
Is tell you I love you
That's when I start promising the world
To a brand new girl I don't even know yet
Next thing she's wearing my Rolex
Too much champs don't know where my phone is
Here's my number, she already knows it
This chapter's a lot, better close it
Just the look in her eye was so evil
Wiley's a party guy and she knows it
[Chorus: Wiley]
What would we do?
Usually drink, usually dance, usually bubble
All I want to do is tell you I love you
That's when I start promising the world
To a brand new girl I don't even know yet
Next thing she's wearing my Rolex

I think it’s electro, it’s electro, it’s dance music basically. And I think that, the sample in it, from old school, helped it to… to sort of, be today what it is, dance music thing. So, I put a grime element to it.
Everyone says “ah, this tune’s gonna pave the way for grime”. It’s not, because it’...
Wiley didn’t turn up to the video shoot. Initially, this was because he was stabbed two days prior to shooting the video, resulting in the scar he has on his face. The video was delayed and replanned. Wiley visited the shoot and declared it was a “white man’s vision” and left.
Initially it was repo...
