Ariana Grande is ready to drop her next hit!
On Thursday (January 10), the "thank u, next" singer announced on Instagram the release date of her next single, "7 Rings," captioning a photo of the track's cover art: "πππππππ 1.18."
Ari's announcement came hours after she posted then deleted what appeared to be the lyrics to the highly-anticipated single on her Instagram Story Wednesday (January 9) night. While they weren't up for long, eagle-eyed fans were able to screenshot the post. Check out a few bars of the single's alleged lyrics below:
Buy myself all of me/ he he he, tea/they say βwhich one?β/ i say βI want all of βemβ/ I see it I like it I want it i got it by now/ let me give you some tea/ 7 rings/ 7 rings/ i pop it/ i pierce it/ 7 rings 7 rings/ I call her, I say βHello!β/ one: not right/two: not quite/ three: youβre on track/ four: do not go back!/ five: youβre almost there!/ six: itβs over there!/ seven: thatβs right!/ 7 rings, 7 rings.
Back in December, Ari revealed that the song is about friendship, with each ring representing a close friend of hers. "well ............. βtwas a pretty rough day in nyc. my friends took me to tiffanyβs. we had too much champagne. i bought us all rings. π," she wrote on Twitter. "it was very insane and funny. & on the way back to the stu njomza was like βbitch, this gotta be a song lolβ. so we wrote it that afternoon." The 25-year-old singer later tweeted who among her circle was lucky enough to get a ring. "me, vic, courtney, alexa, tayla, njomza, kaydence (and my mom and nonna so technically nine but they got theirs after song was done)," she wrote.
