  • I'm in trouble ups I'm in trouble
    I'm in trouble
    I'm in trouble ups I'm in trouble
    I'm in trouble

    I'm in trouble ups I'm in trouble
    I'm in trouble
    I'm in trouble ups I'm in trouble
    I'm in trouble

    Listen yeah
    I was at this club one time with a couple of mates
    We were moving to the music
    We were busting some shakes
    I said I wanted a fag
    But they were loving the bass
    So I headed to the smoking bit to puff in and wait
    And then this kiddy, obviously had summin' to say
    Started moving to me, tried to get all up in my face
    And the his friends intervened
    Like yeah you called him a mug
    I didn't have a clue but then they started punching
    Away I thought well

    [Chorus]
    A wiseman said to me the recipe for life
    Is to conserve your energy unless you feel it's right
    Oh oh don't dance with the devil unless he's in your mind
    Take hold of the rebel
    And take this fight outside

    I thought damn, this puts me in a difficult position
    Three against one, but then my mates came in my vision
    Fully backing it became the obvious decision
    And its funny how these idiots were acting kind of different like nah
    Brother you were giving it the biggun
    All of a sudden somebody calls chief Wigan
    And now to the custody center I'm being driven
    Don't you have to do a crime to be here, when I didn't?
    Police are so bad it's kinda gotten old
    Like respect was an order they really wasn't told
    And when the blues act jazzy you wanna slap em to the floor like
    Yeah bitch that's what I call a rock and roll

    [Chorus]

    Maybe I do maybe I don't
    Maybe I do maybe I don't

    I'm in trouble woops I'm in trouble
    I'm in trouble Everything was going well and now
    I'm in trouble woops I'm in trouble
    I'm in trouble could somebody explain just how?
    I'm in trouble woops I'm in trouble
    I'm in trouble I just lost my head and I found
    I'm in trouble woops I'm in trouble
    I'm in trouble pow

    [Chorus]

    I'm in trouble woops I'm in trouble
    I'm in trouble
    I'm in trouble woops I'm in trouble
    I'm in trouble again

    I'm in trouble woops I'm in trouble
    I'm in trouble
    I'm in trouble woops I'm in trouble
    I'm in trouble again Writer/s: DARREN LEWIS, HARLEY SYLVESTER ALEXANDER-SULE, IYIOLA BABATUNDE BABALOLA, JORDAN STEPHENS
