  • I could've chose anybody but I chose you
    Ooh ooh
    Help me get better, you pull me right out of the blue
    Oh oh
    And daddy don't like you, but daddy and I never speak
    Ee ee
    Every night when I wake up I need you to get back to sleep
    Ee ee

    [Chorus:]
    Smells like roses to me
    Two young lovers at sea
    Tastes so bitter, so sweet
    You're my bang, together we go bang bang bang
    Bang bang bang
    Bang bang bang
    Oh oh, oh oh

    [Verse:]
    You could've chose anybody but you chose me
    Ee Ee
    Hiding in bedsits cause no one around us agrees
    Ee ees
    And I feel romantic cause since morning I've been at the wine
    I, I
    Shall we eat all the poison and leave all the questions behind
    I, I

    [Chorus:]
    Smells like roses to me
    Two young lovers at sea
    Tastes so bitter, so sweet
    You're my bang, together we go bang bang bang
    Bang bang bang
    Bang bang bang

    [Bridge:]
    And all the chemicals and alcohol make for a volatile love
    But stay with me
    Just stay with me
    And I never wanna lose you but I feel that this closeness will tear us apart
    But stay with me
    Stay with me
    Bang, bang, bang [x4]

    [Chorus:]
    Smells like roses to me
    Two young lovers at sea
    Tastes so bitter, so sweet
    You're my bang, together we go bang bang bang Writer/s: Adele Emily Sande, Ben Harrison, Gustave Rudman, James Andrew Arthur, Shahid Khan
