Ant regrets becoming friends-with-benefits with a close friend of his, as it seems to have ruined his previous relationship with her. He acknowledges his naiveté in thinking their platonic friendship wouldn’t be affected after having sex.
[Pre-Chorus]
Put that good bad on me, mm
Do it like you know me (You know)
Weren't we just homies? (Weren't we?)
Act like you know me
When you got lonely, called me up (Brrt)
And you put that on me (Mm)
How my best buddy
Turn to my fuck buddy?
[Chorus]
Who can I run to, when I ain't got no friends?
'Cause I just fucked that up too, oh
When I, when I, when I fucked you
[Verse 1]
Fuck feelin' all your feelings
Dr-drillin' I'm a dentist
Mixin' potions, I'm a chemist
Two fingers on her feelings
And I feel what I ain't felt before
Can't believe we just crossed this line
[Bridge]
You were worried about our friendship
So I lied and said that it would be fine
(Don't worry it's going to be fine, just trust me)
[Pre-Chorus]
Put that good bad on me, mm
Do it like you know me (Yeah, yeah)
Weren't we just homies? (We just homies, for sure)
Act like you know me (Act like)
When you got lonely, called me up (Yeah, brrt)
And you put that on me (Put that on me)
How my best buddy (Ahh)
Turn to my fuck buddy? (Oh, no)
[Chorus]
Who can I run to, when I ain't got no friends?
'Cause I just fucked that up too, oh
When I, when I, when I fucked you
[Verse 2]
I should've known that things would never be the same
I should've known soon as I made you say my name
But the thought of you naked got in the way
Over us, I pray
[Bridge]
You were worried about our friendship
So I lied and said that it would be fine
Ooh, and you
[Pre-Chorus]
Put that good bad on me, mm (Yeah)
Do it like you know me (Yeah)
Weren't we just homies? (We just homies, for sure)
Act like you know me (Act like you know)
When you got lonely, called me up (Yeah, brrt)
And you put that on me (Put that on me)
How my best buddy (Ah, ah)
Turn to my fuck buddy? (Oh, no)
[Chorus]
Who can I run to, when I ain't got no friends?
'Cause I just fucked that up too, oh
When I, when I, when I fucked you (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
