Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I should be standing at the bar, waving a ten pound note around
But I sit here on the sofa at my girl's house
I should be chatting shit as I'm nobbing out another snout
But I'll roach a spliff, watching the TV for now
[Verse 2]
I should be watching the fruit machines, for which one will pay out
But I sit on the sofa at my girl's, anyhow
I should be legging it from a cab, like a mad little lout
But I'll roach a spliff, watching the TV, throughout
[Verse 3]
I know I never tell her, but every single day, man
I'm always thinking loads about her
She's the best thing that ever happened to me and
I don't know what I'd do without her
[Verse 4]
I should actually go out and about, flip some beer mats
Instead of sitting here at my girl's gaff
'Cause all I seem to do is sit in this habitat
Just roaching a spliff, watching the TV and that
[Verse 5]
And the TV at my house is a bit broken on the back
So I use my girl's TV to watch the match
Yeah, I might head out later to get off this beaten track
Of watching the TV, roaching up, I'm the same old man
[Verse 6]
I know I never tell her, but every single day, man
I'm always thinking loads about her
She's the best thing that ever happened to me and
I don't know what I'd do without her
[Verse 7]
But on second thoughts, I won't do shots
No, I think I will sit on the sofa and eat my TV meal
I would actually much prefer to just sit her and chill
Roaching a spliff, watching Eastenders or the Bill
[Verse 8]
'Cause basically, I love her and I love being here still
And I love sitting on the sofa with my girl, for real
I don't want to knock my mates, but there, it's the same old drill
Roaching a spliff, watching the TV is my will
[Verse 9]
I know I never tell her, but every single day, man
I'm always thinking loads about her
She's the best thing that ever happened to me and
I don't know what I'd do without her
[Verse 10]
No, fuck that, I might as my mates where they'll be drinking
From the sofa, giving them ding
Tell 'em, I will go freeze on that ground later on this evening
Instead of roaching a spliff, watching the TV again
[Verse 11]
And then go out, whilst back at hers, she does her thing
Sitting on the sofa at her end
But, as I watch the big screen, I know I will quite miss
Me and her, roaching a spliff, watching the TV again
[Verse 12]
I know I never tell her, but every single day, man
I'm always thinking loads about her
(That's exactly what I'm talkin' about)
She's the best thing that ever happened to me and
(I wouldn't have it any other way)
I don't know what I'd do without her
(I'll tell you this)
[Verse 13]
I know I never tell her, but every single day, man
(There's a whole world out there)
I'm always thinking loads about her
(A whole world, but do I give a?)
She's the best thing that ever happened to me and
(Do you know what I mean?)
(There's a whole world out there)
I don't know what I'd do without her
[Verse 14]
I've got one packet of Rizla over there
But it's nearly run out
I've got bits of cigarette all over the place, mmm
The clipper needs a shake, the ashtray needs emptying
But I wouldn't have it any other way
I said, I wouldn't have it any other way
I said, I wouldn't have it any other way
[Verse 15]
(I wouldn't have it any other way)
(I wouldn't have it any other way) No, I wouldn't
(I wouldn't have it any other way) No, I wouldn't, any other way
(I wouldn't have it any other way) I said, the ashtray needs emptying
(I wouldn't have it any other way) I said, the clipper needs a shake
(I wouldn't have it any other way)
(I wouldn't have it any other way) Do the same things as yesterday, hey
(I wouldn't have it any other way) Oh, I
(I wouldn't have it any other way)
