[Chorus: Leo The Lion] 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 2: Mike Skinner & Leo The Lion] I should actually go out and about, flip some beer mats Instead of sitting here at my girl's gaff (Yeah, yeah) 'Cause all I seem to do is sit in this habitat Just roaching a spliff, watching the TV and that And the TV at my house is a bit broken on the back So I use my girl's TV to watch the match (Oh) Yeah, I might head out later to get off this beaten track Of watching the TV, roaching up, on the same old mat
[Chorus: Leo The Lion] 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 3: Mike Skinner & Leo The Lion] 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 here and chill (Ooh) Roaching a spliff watching EastEnders or The Bill (Oh) 'Cause basically I love her, and I love being here still And I love sitting on the sofa with my girl, for real (Yeah) 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 (Ooh)
[Chorus: Leo The Lion] I know I never tell her but every single day, man (Oh, oh, oh) I'm always thinking loads about her (Oh, oh) She's the best thing that ever happened to me and I don't know what I'd do without her (Oh, babe)
[Verse 4: Mike Skinner & Leo The Lion] No, fuck that I might ask my mates where they'll be drinking From the sofa, giving them a ding Tell 'em I will go threes on that gram later on this evening (Yeah) Instead of roaching a spliff, watching the TV again And then go out, whilst back at hers, she does her ting 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 (Oh yeah), watching the TV again
[Chorus: Leo The Lion & Mike Skinner] I know I never tell her but every single day, man I'm always thinking loads about her (Oh yeah) (That's exactly what I'm talking about) She's the best thing that ever happened to me (I wouldn't have it any other way) And I don't know what I'd do without her (Oh) (I'll tell you this) I know I never tell her (There's a whole world out there) But every single day, man (A whole world) I'm always thinking loads about her (But do I give a–?) She's the best thing that ever happened to me (D'you know what I mean?) And I don't know what I'd do without her (There's a whole world out there)
[Outro: Leo The Lion] 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, mm-mm 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 Ooh, ooh, ooh No, I wouldn't, no, I wouldn't I wouldn't have it any other way I said, the ashtray needs emptying I said, the clipper needs a shake But I wouldn't have it any other way I did the same things as yesterday Oh, oh, oh, I... Oh, I wouldn't have it any other way

Here, Skinner confirms his love to Simone, emphasizing the romantic side of this concept album. He continues the narrative of his £1000 that he lost though.
He realizes his spending time in Simone’s house is greater than hanging out with his mates, even though he has second thoughts, he still stays with her, because he knows it wouldn’t have it any other way. But things change a bit in the next song off of the album, “Get Out of My House”.
