[Verse 1: Machine Gun Kelly]
Who's that knockin' at four in the morning? (Four in the morning)
'Cause it don't rain, but tonight, it's pouring (Tonight, it's pouring)
Uh, you like it more when I ignore it (You like it, yeah)
And since I left, LA got boring (Since I've been gone)
Ayy, I'm back on my bullshit
You're a Libra, I'm a Taurus
Heard you hooked back up with your ex
And now you're asleep on my doorstep
[Chorus: Machine Gun Kelly]
You're way too hot to be acting like that
Acting like that, acting like that
You're way too hot to be acting like that
Acting like that, acting like that
I don't wanna talk right now
You're asleep outside my house
You're way too hot to be acting like that
Acting like that, acting like that
[Verse 2: YUNGBLUD]
(I love this bit)
I heard that today, you got on a plane to another state
I think I'm okay
Never gonna change my mind
Never gonna change my mind
And I don't think today is the last time
That the bright lights hit the dark side
I can see that look in your eyes
I can see that look in your eyes, yeah
Now I can't sleep, I'm all alone
And what we reaped was what we've sown
So can we meet somewhere in the middle? (Yeah)
[Chorus: Machine Gun Kelly & YUNGBLUD, Machine Gun Kelly]
You're way too hot to be acting like that
Acting like that, acting like that
You're way too hot to be acting like that
Acting like that, acting like that
I don't wanna talk right now (Right now)
You're asleep outside my house (Asleep outside my house)
You're way too hot to be acting like that
Acting like that, acting like that
[Post-Chorus: YUNGBLUD & Machine Gun Kelly]
La-la, la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la
La-la, la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la (Yeah)
[Bridge: YUNGBLUD, Machine Gun Kelly & Both]
I'm going out my head
I fell in love again
I know that you'll regret me in the morning
When you are gone again
Yeah
[Chorus: Machine Gun Kelly & YUNGBLUD, Machine Gun Kelly]
You're way too hot to be acting like that
Acting like that, acting like that
You're way too hot to be acting like that
Acting like that, acting like that
I don't wanna talk right now (I don't wanna talk right now)
You're asleep outside my house (Asleep outside my house)
You're way too hot to be acting like that
Acting like that, acting like that
[Post-Chorus: YUNGBLUD & Machine Gun Kelly]
La-la, la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la
La-la, la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la (Yeah)

MGK told NME in March 2020:
Me and YUNGBLUD got together to drink some beer after Juice [WRLD] had passed because we were just like, ‘Times are short. Let’s link up.’ And the weirdest night happened, and we went to the studio the next day and wrote a song about that. And that felt like a smash, too...
