The British pop icon's new album is fast approaching...

Wednesday, January 10, 2018 - 12:54

Praise 2018! Lily Allen is coming back in full force as she readies the launch of her new single.

After the lead single from her upcoming fourth album suddenly leaked in December, Lily took control and dropped 'Trigger Bang' on all the usual streaming platforms just days later.

Now it seems its music video is coming very soon after Giggs, who features on the brilliant track, shared a clip of the singer filming from behind the scenes.

It seems like only yesterday you were with somebody else
Soon as it was over though I had claimed you for myself
Didn't take me long before I had moved my stuff to yours
Glad to leave the past behind and I'm glad to close the door

Because you know I love ya
Because you know I love ya

So far has been so good, it seems we stand test of time
You never call me "baby" but you refer to me as "mine"
What I like the best is how you can keep me on my toes
Staying home with you is better than sticking things up my nose

I had that awful feeling, that I needed help
My life had lost its meaning, but you saved me from myself
As long as I've got you and we can be
together and forever just you and me, well that's swell

You sleep with your mouth wide open and you go to the pub alone
You only cook from frozen but I don't ever hear you moan
You let me lie in bed when you're doing breakfast with the kids
Landing on my feet with you, I'm so happy with is how we live

Because you know I love ya
Because you know I love ya

I had that awful feeling, that I needed help
My life had lost its meaning, but you saved me from myself
As long as I've got you and we can be
together and forever just you and me, well that's swell

I had that awful feeling, that I needed help
My life had lost its meaning, but you saved me from myself
As long as I've got you and we can be
together and forever just you and me, well that's swell

As long as I've got you and we can be
together and forever just you and me, well that's swell

As long as I've got you and we can be
together and forever just you and me, well that's swell

Debuting her new baby pink hairdo, the 'Sheezus' singer walks through a busy cocktail bar on her ownsome while the hard-hitting song plays over.

"And it fuels my addictions / Hanging out in this whirlwind / If you cool my ambitions I’m gonna cut you out / That's why I can't hang with the cool gang," it goes.

If you haven't already heard - what are you waiting for?! - 'Trigger Bang' sees Lily reflecting on her youth and rise to fame, referencing a debaucherous lifestyle that she no longer cares for.

We are so glad that 'Trigger Bang' is still leading her new campaign as it's easily one of her strongest outings in years and notably reminiscent of her debut album Alright, Still.

Her fouth album - reportedly titled The Fourth Wall - is set to drop this year, four years after she came out of an early retirement with the underrated Sheezus.

I work at home in my parent's basement
I don't troll, I make statements
I'm not a cliché sittin' in my PJ's
Double cupping at lunch on a Tuesday
I'm like Drake, see? So don't hate me!
I get vexed if you don't appreciate me
Real talk, I'll put the world to rights
And when I'm a big boy I'm gonna write for Vice

It's not for me? It must be wrong
I could ignore it and move on
But I'm a Broadband Champion
And if you're tryna call it art
I'll have to take it all apart
I got a high-brow game plan

I'm a U-R-L B-A-D M-A-N with no empathy
I got a high-brow game plan
I'm a U-R-L B-A-D M-A-N and you're dead to me
'Cause I'm a Broadband Champion

Spectacles with no prescription
Short-shorts with conviction
Supreme, Palace, APC
Sizzurp in a chalice, yeah, that's so me
I'm a London white boy repping ATL
Keyboard Warrior that can't spell
I don't like you, I think you're worthless
I wrote a long piece about it up on my WordPress

It's not for me? It must be wrong
I could ignore it and move on
But I'm a Broadband Champion
And if you're tryna call it art
I'll have to take it all apart
I got a high-brow game plan

I'm a U-R-L B-A-D M-A-N with no empathy
I got a high-brow game plan
I'm a U-R-L B-A-D M-A-N and you're dead to me
'Cause I'm a Broadband Champion

I like Jordans, Jay Rich, DJ Scream shit
Complex, Pitchfork, Winnie The Pooh shit
I'm a space ghost perpetrator
Bottom half of Idolator
Check for Tyler the Creator
A$AP, Kanye, XX remix
Mike Jones, Paul Wall, I need a Kleenex
I don't like girls much, they kinda silly
Unless of course they wanna play with my willy

I'm a U-R-L B-A-D M-A-N with no empathy
I got a high-brow game plan
I'm a U-R-L B-A-D M-A-N and you're dead to me
'Cause I'm a Broadband Champion

I got a high-brow game plan
