[Verse 1] I said I’d be there by a quarter to nine Then spent ten minutes choosing a shirt I don’t like You caught me rehearsing my casual grin I tripped on the welcome mat trying to walk in [Pre-Chorus] You raise an eyebrow, I lose my place My clever little speech falls flat on its face Now the room leans in, and I’m out of excuses [Chorus] You make a mess of my alibi I talk too much, then I wonder why I came in cool, but you saw right through Now everybody knows I’m hooked on you Oh, everybody knows I’m hooked on you [Verse 2] I told my friends I was taking it slow Then checked my phone all the way home You borrowed my jacket, forgot to give it back I called that fate; you called it a minor; mishap [Pre-Chorus] You say my name and I miss a beat My practiced comeback gets lost in the street Now the room leans in, and I’m out of excuses [Chorus] You make a mess of my alibi I talk too much, then I wonder why I came in cool, but you saw right through Now everybody knows I’m hooked on you Oh, everybody knows I’m hooked on you [Bridge] I could play it safe, I could act composed But my face gives up what my mouth won’t disclose So take this ridiculous, honest debut: I’m bad at pretending I don’t like you [Final Chorus] You make a mess of my alibi I talk too much, then I wonder why I came in cool, but you saw right through Now everybody knows I’m hooked on you Everybody knows, everybody knows I’m bad at pretending I don’t like you [Outro] I don’t like you—sure, that’s what I’ll say Then I’ll walk you home and get lost on the way.. [Instrumentall] I’ll walk you home; we'll get lost on the way... [fade to end] We'll get lost on the way... [fade ti end] [end]
