[Intro]
I fell in love with the boy next door
I fell in love with the boy next door
I fell in love with the boy next door
I fell in love with the boy next door
[Chorus]
I fell in love with the boy next door
I fell in love with the boy next door
I fell in love with the boy next door
I fell in love with the boy next door
I fell in love with the boy next door
I fell in love with the boy next door
I fell in love with the boy next door
I fell in love with the boy next door
[Verse 1]
I don't know your name, but
I just want your fame
Just think you’re really hot, and
Think that I can earn your trust
Here for a minute
There for a while
Your endless limits
Go on for miles
I wonder if he's in
[Chorus]
I fell in love with the boy next door
I fell in love with the boy next door
I fell in love with the boy next door
I fell in love with the boy next door
[Post-Chorus]
I fell in love with
I fell in love with
I fell in love with
I fell in love with
Lunch, lunch, lunch, lunch
[Verse 2]
Take me for lunch, take me for dinner
Just take me out, you know I'm a winner
Vodka for days, vodka for years
We could just chat for a million years
Show me your friends, you know I’m the one
I'll let my hair down and we'll have some fun
Vodka for days, vodka for hours
I really think that this night could be ours
Vodka for you, vodka for me
Let's just drink up to the power of three
Vodka for days, vodka for hours
I really think that this night could be ours
Look in my eyes, look at my hips
If I was a dancer, I'd get the tips
Come to my show, look at me go
If you turn me on you'll get a good blow
[Chorus]
I fell in love with the boy next door
I fell in love with the boy next door
I fell in love with the boy next door
I fell in love with the boy next door
I fell in love with the boy next door
I fell in love with the boy next door
I fell in love with the boy next door
I fell in love with the boy next door
[Verse 2]
Take me for lunch, take me for dinner
Just take me out, you know I'm a winner
Vodka for days, vodka for years
We could just chat for a million years
Show me your friends, you know I'm the one
I’ll let my hair down and we’ll have some fun
Vodka for days, vodka for hours
I really think that this night could be ours
Vodka for you, vodka for me
Let's just drink up to the power of three
Vodka for days, vodka for hours
I really think that this night could be ours
Look in my eyes, look at my hips
If I was a dancer, I’d get the tips
Come to my show, look at me go
If you turn me on you'll get a good blow”

When asked by i-D how long the track took to write, GFOTY said:
Probably about 24 hours, I’m a very quick songwriter. It was a quick storyline and then over time we built him out into a character, you meet him in the video.
