## Background and Composition

The song was first conceived whilst Remi and Sven met at the Silverlake Pool & Inn, most likely during late 2021. Remi described the meet up to include them talking about life, drinking a piña colada, and "saving a bee from drowning," only for the song to have begun lyrical development around three hours after.

Suspicion of a collaboration between the two became overtly relevant during the publication of a photoshoot as each artist posted a singular image from the shoot, tagging the other.[ex.] Eventually, on the 10th of March, the song's upcoming release was officially announced alongside a pre-save link. With this, a 48-second snippet of the song was distributed among TikTok, as featured in a video by Remi, followed by a separate 59-second snippet being published to the platform as well, as included in another post by Remi. On March 14th, Remi posted a visual teaser of the song to her socials, preceding another visual tease the following day.

On the day of release, Solomonophonic commented on his experience with helping to write and produce the track,

> *ya know, this one was a real pleasure to make. when we got in the studio, it felt like the pressure was so high to make a littty ass banger, that we made the chillest most calmest song ever…instead of the high energy slappers remi and sven are most known for. whats that called? the reverse lightening affect??? idk…but yeah this song is chill, go run it up!!!

## Lyrics

* Pool
* Clean

**[Verse 1: Remi Wolf]**

I met my friend at the pool

He told me things were going well

But not without the need to knock on wood

We said goodbye

After saving drowning killer bees

And crying 'bout how much he loves his wife

I told my friend about last night

Risking my relationships

And people I just can't resist

And bad behavior I've been tryna hide

I suffocate and drown

You kiss me when I kiss her mouth

She askin' me if I wanna skip town

But I never could, baby

You know that we both move to fast

And would you even ask me?

**[Chorus: Remi Wolf]**

I don't really know where my head's at

I just know my heart's not there yet

And maybe I'm just crazy 'bout

The thought of thinking I adore you

**[Verse 2: Still Woozy, *Remi Wolf*]**

I met my friend at the pool

She told me she was fucking up

But I wouldn't call her anybody's fool

We said goodbye

And she touched down on the London ground

And I went back to tryna live my life

*Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh*

I saw my late friend last night

He came to see me in a dream

I don't know why he visits me

I work all day, just let me sleep alright

Two shots in my head

I felt my legs kicking my bed

I remember what my mama had said

"Now, child"

You never could, baby

**[Chorus: Still Woozy, *both*]**

I don't really know where my head's at

I just know my heart's not there yet

And maybe I'm just waiting on

Someone to wake me

*I don't really know where my head's at*

*I just know my heart's not there yet*

*And maybe I'm just crazy 'bout*

*The thought of thinking I adore you*

**[Verse 1: Remi Wolf]**

**[Verse 2: Still Woozy, *Remi Wolf*]**

I met my friend at the pool

She told me she was—up

But I wouldn't call her anybody's fool

We said goodbye

And she touched down on the London ground

And I went back to tryna live my life

*Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh*

## Trivia

* This is Remi and Sven's second collaboration together, the first being "Cheesin'".
* The distributed cover art, as with many other releases of Still Woozy, was developed by Sven's wife, Amiya Cooks.
* The clean edit of the song is two seconds longer than the original release.
	+ This is only because of an additional two seconds of silence at the end of the song.
	+ Only one word in the song is edited in the clean rendition, "fucking," which is muted.
