[Pre-Chorus: PinkPantheress]
Your hair's under my pillow so I sleep (So I sleep)
And I'm dreaming of you leaving roses at my feet (Nastylgia, At my feet)
I'm obsessed with you in a way I can't believe
When you wipe your tears do you wipe them just for me? (Me, me, me, me)

[Chorus: Central Cee & PinkPantheress]
I hope a trap boy's your type (Why?)
'Cause I don't have a 9-to-5 (Alright)
I get that your standards high
But I'm not a random guy, I'm different (Literally)
When I write my rhymes, you say you don't like that line
I'll switch it (Calm)
You said you don't like my life, you said you don't like my guys
You're trippin' (When you wipe your tears do you wipe them just for me?)

[Bridge: PinkPantheress & Central Cee]
I followed you, I followed you today, I was in my car (Alright)
I wanted to come see you from afar (At my feet)
If you turned around and saw me I would die
When you wipe your tears do you wipe them just for me?

[Verse: Central Cee]
Bad one and she photogenic (Alright)
Instagram got a lot of impressions (Uh-huh)
She think I'm a G and I don't need love
But I need some thug affection (Literally)
If I fell off tomorrow, would you still love me?
Man I got 21 questions (Like 50)
In the trap with the cats, domestics
She doin' lashes, somethin' cosmetic
They shot their shot, she read it
They slid in DM with somethin' generic (Huh)
She don't even like goin' out, got a new outfit, but nowhere to wear it (Alright)
She think that I'm being disloyal when I'm in the streets with couple of killys
(You ain't gotta) You ain't gotta worry 'bout none of these h**s
I'm grown, I'm done with these b**ches (Done with these b**ches, done with these b**ches)

[Pre-Chorus: PinkPantheress]
Your hair's under my pillow so I sleep (So I sleep)
And I'm dreaming of you leaving roses at my feet (At my feet)
I'm obsessed with you in a way I can't believe
When you wipe your tears do you wipe them just for me? (Me, me, me, me)

[Chorus: Central Cee & PinkPatheress]
I hope a trap boy's your type (Why?)
'Cause I don't have a 9-to-5 (Alright)
I get that your standards high
But I'm not a random guy, I'm different (Literally)
When I write my rhymes, you say you don't like that line
I'll switch it (Calm)
You said you don't like my life, you said you don't like my guys
You're trippin'

[Outro: Central Cee & PinkPantheress]
Wipe them just for me? Me, me, me, me
I hope a trap boy's your type
Do you wipe them just for me? Me, me, me, me
I get that your standards high
But I'm not a random guy, I'm different
I'm pleading on my knees (Knees, knees, knees, knees)
When I write my rhymes, you say you don't like that line
I'll switch it (Calm)
It's your touch that I need (Need, need, need, need)
When you wipe your tears do you wipe them just for—
