Teardrop Lyrics

Ed Sheeran
We're torn between what's right and what's not
What's up, what's down

Ms Dynamite
Left or right, deep down, on top, full stops
Exclamation mark, punctuation

Chipmunk
100%, straight A's, education
University, job prospects, lost objects

Wretch 32
New posessions, new friends
Old lessons

Mizz Bratt
New questions, old answers
New message

Dot Rotten
Repeat sentence, feel presence
Receive gestures

Tinchy Stryder
Learn more, seek blessings

Dot Rotten
Seek forgiveness

Tinchy Stryder
Seek freedom, seek vengeance
Be full of life, be vacant
Flee danger, be braver

Tulisa: Chrous
Love, love is a verb
Love is a doing word
Fearless on my breath
Gentle impulsion
Shakes me, makes me lighter
Fearless on my breath

Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my breath

Wretch 32
Be careful, be reckless
Be reserved, be respected

Chipmunk
Be flamboyant, be rejected
Be loved, be neglected
See sense

Mizz Bratt
See nonsense, see the lies
See honesty

Rizzle Kicks
See properly, see poorly
See tarnished, see quality

Dot Rotten
Keep changing, be a changer
Be popular, be a stranger

Tinchy Stryder
Do favours, be selfish
Share riches, be homeless

Ms Dynamite
Be selfless, be careless
Be you, be them
Be anyone

Ed Sheeran
Be an enemy, be a friend
But beware

Tulisa: Chrous
Love, love is a verb
Love is a doing word
Fearless on my breath
Gentle impulsion
Shakes me, makes me lighter
Fearless on my breath

Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my breath

Wretch 32
You can be anything you dream of

Mizz Bratt
A wise man appreciates the time on a cheap watch

Wretch 32
Value everything you own

Dot Rotten
Somebody probably dreams of the bed that you sleep on

Wretch 32 & Mizz Bratt
Be anything, it's your choice

Ms Dynamite
Always speak your mind

Tinchy Stryder
Your voice
We're living in the land of opportunities

Wretch 32
You can turn silver into gold with four coins

Tulisa
Come on
Love is a verb
A doing word
On, on my breath

Labrinth
Now don't you quit on me

Tulisa
Makes me lighter

Labrinth
I need you baby

Tulisa & Labrinth
Love, love is a verb
Love is a doing word
Fearless on my breath

Genius Annotation

The official BBC Children In Need song of 2011 was performed by an official Children In Need “collective” of various British urban acts assembled by Gary Barlow, covering the Massive Attack song.
N-Dubz’s Tulisa covers the vocals heard in the original version while all other lyrics were added by each other participating act.
The end result was the lowest-charting Children In Need single in 15 years.
