[Verse 1: Tove Lo]
First line, take mine; I'm fine as fuck
Love myself tonight and I think you can feel the same
Moonshine, good time; babe, you're in luck
Cause I will do whatever comes to mind, yeah, go insane

[Pre-Chorus: Tove Lo]
Things I say don't usually come easily
There's one thing I need you now to know 'bout me

[Chorus: Tove Lo]
You know I'm under the influence
So don't trust every word I say, I say
When I'm under the influence
It's a blur, but I want my way, my way
You know I'm under the influence
So don't trust every word I say, I say
Sounds good without making sense
It's a blur, but I want my way, my way
When I'm under the influence

[Verse 2: Tove Lo]
Ticker, flicker; I feel the beat
Hold onto the floor, but I keep spinnin' round and round
Swing me, baby, back on my feet
Hiding in the crowd, we're making love without a sound

[Pre-Chorus: Tove Lo]
Things I say don't usually come easily
There's one thing I need you now to know 'bout me

[Chorus: Tove Lo]
You know I'm under the influence
So don't trust every word I say, I say
When I'm under the influence
It's a blur, but I want my way, my way
You know I'm under the influence
So don't trust every word I say, I say
Sounds good without making sense
It's a blur, but I want my way, my way
When I'm under the influence

[Bridge: Tove Lo]
Boy meets, boy meets, girl meets, girl
This is the best place in the world, ooh
Boy meets, boy meets, girl meets, girl
This is the best place in the world, ooh

[Verse 3: Wiz Khalifa]
So intoxicated and faded
I'm in the club, barely made it
I see the look on your face and it says that you want it later
But you ain't too in the way
And I fly you to different places
You call your crew in amazement
Cause they ain't doing the same shit
Barely knew what your name is, don't care who you just came with
Make a move and get famous, get your mission completed
Usually gotta politic or entertain
But I just got a couple things I wanna know cause everything is moving slow
I usually wouldn't ask this though, but

[Chorus: Tove Lo & Wiz Khalifa]
You know I'm under the influence
So don't trust every word I say, I say (Young Khalifa, man)
When I'm under the influence
It's a blur, but I want my way, my way
You know I'm under the influence (Boy meets, boy meets, girl meets, girl)
So don't trust every word I say, I say
Sounds good without making sense (Boy meets, boy meets, girl meets, girl)
It's a blur, but I want my way, my way
When I'm under the influence

Ebba Tove Elsa Nilsson, professionally known as Tove Lo (pronounced Too-veh-Lu), is a Swedish singer-songwriter born and raised in Djursholm, Sweden.

She first rose to prominence for her single, “Habits (Stay High)“, which became a top ten hit in the U.S. a year after its 2013 release, a dark breakup anthem that generated such Internet buzz that it led to a deal with Universal. “Habits“ and its follow-up, “Out of Mind“, appeared on her debut EP Truth Serum, in 2014.

Later that year, her debut album, Queen of the Clouds, arrived, featuring “Habits“. The album was a Top 10 hit in Sweden and a Top 20 hit in the U.S. and U.K., and the subsequent single “Talking Body“ was a similar success.
