LYRICS:

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
Usually drink, usually dance, usually bubble
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
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 shanks, don't know where my phone is
Here's my number, she already knows it
This chapter's a lot, better close it
Just a look in her eye was so evil
Wiley's a party guy and she knows it

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
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
Usually drink, usually dance, usually bubble
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
That's when I start promising the world to
A brand new girl I don't even know yet
Too much shanks, don't know where my phone is
Here's my number, she already knows it
This chapter's a lot, better close it
Just a look in her eye was so evil
Wiley's a party guy and she knows it

What would we do
Usually drink, usually dance, usually babble
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 !

The lesbians next door gave me a Rolex for my birthday, which was very nice. But i think they misunderstood me when i said i wana watch..

[TheGuyThatSpysOnYou]

Wiley did make grime what it is, but it originally started by the meridian crew, Big H in particular. Then a new wave of MC's like Dizzee and Bashy started emerging.
