The song was originally named Maybelline but was later changed to Aberdeen because Cage the Elephant’s lead singer Matt Shultz couldn’t stop singing the city’s name while rehearsing in Aberdeen, Scotland.
[Verse 1]
I been trying real hard to, to realize
But some things take a long, long, long, long time
Long time
[Chorus]
Hold the phone, hit repeat
Got me foamin' at the knees
Saw the flame, tasted sin
You burn me once again
Cut the cord, she's a creep
Aberdeen!
Way back, way back, way back!
[Verse 2]
Never saw my dark side in-in your eyes
Back and forth, bloody fingers painting up the sky
The sky
[Chorus]
Hold the phone, hit repeat
Got me foamin' at the knees
Saw the flame, tasted sin
But you burn me once again
Cut the cord, she's a creep
Aberdeen!
Way back, way back, way back!
[Instrumental break]
Hey! Hey! Hey!
Ooh, ooh
[Chorus]
Hold the phone, hit repeat
Got me foamin' at the knees
Saw the flame, tasted sin
You burn me once again
Cut the cord, she's a creep
Aberdeen!
Aberdeen!
Way back, way back, way back!
[Outro]
Way back, way back, way back!
Way back, way back, way back
Way back, way back, way back
Way back, way back, way back
(Ooh, ooh)
