LYRICS
Hey-hey, you-you
I don’t like your girlfriend
No way, no way
I think you need a new one
Hey-hey, you-you
I could be your girlfriend
Hey-hey, you-you
I know that you like me
No way, no way
You know it’s not a secret
Hey-hey, you-you
I want to be your girlfriend
You’re so fine, I want you mine
You’re so delicious
I think about you all the time
You’re so addictive
Don’t you know what I can do
To make you feel alright
(Alright, alright, alright, alright)
Don’t pretend, I think you know I’m damn precious
And hell yeah, I’m the mother fucking princess
I can tell you like me too, and you know I’m right
(Know I’m right, I’m right, I’m right, I’m right)
She’s like so whatever
You could do so much better
I think we should get together now
And that’s what everyone’s talking about!

No way, no way
You know it’s not a secret
Hey-hey, you-you

I can see the way
I see the way you look at me
And even when you look away
I know you think of me
I know you talk about me
All the time again and again
(Again, again, again)
(So come over here) so come over here
And tell me what I wanna hear
Better yet make your girlfriend disappear
I don’t wanna hear you say her name ever again
(And again, and again, and again)
Cause she’s like so whatever
You could do so much better
I think we should get together now

(Uh) in a second you’ll be wrapped around my finger
Cause I can, cause I can do it better
There’s no other so when’s it gonna sink in
She’s so stupid, what the hell were you thinking
(Uh) in a second you’ll be wrapped around my finger
