Rita Ora's new track 'Poison' has gotten us all excited about the popstar all over again, and we couldn't be more delighted.

The EDM pop track is admittedly about her rich dating history, as Rita previously said: “This is about my bad luck with love."

So we can assume Calvin Harris and Rob Kardashian were inspiration?

“I pick my poison and it’s you / Nothing can kill me like you do,” she sings on the super-catchy hook, which you listen to for yourself right here...

View the lyrics
I could have beer for breakfast, my sanity for lunch
Tryin' to get over how bad I want you so much
Innocence for dinner, pour somethin' in my cup
Anything and everything just to fill me up
But nothing ever gets me high like this

I picked my poison and it's you
Nothing can kill me like you do
You're goin' straight to my head
And I'm headin' straight for the edge
I picked my poison and it's you
I picked my poison and it's you

I can feel your whisper and layin' on the floor
I tried to stop, but I keep on comin' back for more
I'm a lightweight and I know it
Cause after the first time I was fallin', fallin' down
But nothing ever gets me high like this

I picked my poison and it's you
Nothing can kill me like you do
You're goin' straight to my head
And I'm headin' straight for the edge
I picked my poison and it's you
I picked my poison and it's you

I love bittersweet ecstasy that you got me in
Fallin' deep, I can sleep tonight
And you make me feel like I'm out of my mind
But it's alright, it's alright, it's alright

Bittersweet ecstasy that you got me in
Fallin' deep, I can sleep tonight
And you make me feel like I'm out of my mind
But it's alright, it's alright, it's alright
Nothing ever gets me high like this

I picked my poison and it's you
Nothing can kill me like you do
You're goin' straight to my head
And I'm headin' straight for the edge
I pick my poison and it's you
(Ohh it's you)
I pick my poison and it's you
And it's you
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I pick my poison and it's you

Rita's second album can be expected later this year and features contributions from Charli XCX, Switch and Dev Hynes. Yay!

'Poison' is released on 28th June.

We're staying all night
We never slow down
I think we better do it like we're doing it now

It's been a long time
Since we've been around
So come on, let's keep doing it like we're doing it
Doing it like we're doing it

Waited so long just to be here
Now we're bringing this back to life
Yeah, we're bringing this back to life
Want you to know how I miss ya
Now I got you right by my side
Yeah, I got you right by my side

Locked inside my veins you're in my blood, in my blood
And we're united forevermore

We're staying all night
We never slow down
I think we better do it like we're doing it now
It's been a long time
Since we've been around
So come on, let's keep doing it like we're doing it
Doing it like we're doing it now

Keep doing it like we're doing it
Doing it like we're doing it

Friends like a team in a circle
We're together we're so alive
Yeah, together we're so alive
Joy like a jewel, let it sparkle
Know that I got your back for life
Yeah, I got your back for life

Locked inside my veins you're in my blood, in my blood
And we're united forevermore

We're staying all night
We never slow down
I think we better do it like we're doing it now
It's been a long time
Since we've been around
So come on, let's keep doing it like we're doing it
Doing it like we're doing it now

Keep doing it like we're doing it
Doing it like we're doing it now
Keep doing it like we're doing it
Doing it like we're doing it

All night long
We dancing to this song
We doing it, we going on and on
On and on

All night long
We dancing to this song
We doing it, we going on and on
On and on

We're staying all night
We never slow down
I think we better do it like we're doing it now
It's been a long time
Since we've been around
So come on, let's keep doing it like we're doing it
Doing it like we're doing it now

All night long
We dancing to this song
Let's keep doing it like we're doing it
Doing it like we're doing it now

All night long
We dancing to this song
Let's keep doing it like we're doing it
Doing it like we're doing it

We're staying all night
We never slow down
I think we better do it like we're doing it now
It's been a long time
Since we've been around
So come on, let's keep doing it like we're doing it
Doing it like we're doing it now

X-C-X with the R-I-T, (A, baby!)
