[Verse 1]
Boy, didn't you know, know, know
You were just a distraction?
Call me up and I'm laughin'
Sayin', "Who's this?"
I think you should know, know, know
It was good while it lasted
Doesn't mean I was askin'
For a long fix
[Pre-Chorus]
You got it in your head
That you could lock me down
But I knew I'd run away
Break glass on your display
Oh, it was such a shame
The way that it all was staged
I could never play the part you crave
[Chorus]
And oh, oh, keep me on the down low
Oh, oh, keep me on the down low
Told you not to tell your friends about me
But you always want a girl to show
And oh, oh, keep me on the down low
Oh, oh, keep me on the down low
Now you tell your friends that I'm a mess
And I'm just someone that you don't even know
Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh
[Verse 2]
Boy, didn't you know, know, know
You were just a distraction?
And you were always the last thing
On my mind
And I wanna know, know, know
How did you think this would end up?
You know I like to spend my nights at home
You're always looking for nights you can blow
[Pre-Chorus]
You got it in your head
That you could lock me down
But I knew I'd run away
Break glass on your display
Oh, it was such a shame
The way that it all was staged
I could never play the part you crave
[Chorus]
And oh, oh, keep me on the down low
Oh, oh, keep me on the down low
Told you not to tell your friends about me
But you always want a girl to show
And oh, oh, keep me on the down low
Oh, oh, keep me on the down low
Now you tell your friends that I'm a mess
And I'm just someone that you don't even know
Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh
[Bridge]
Keep me on the down low, baby
I don't want everybody to know me lately
I'm not tryna be your lady
I stay to myself
I know you think you know me
I know you like to think that you could be my only
You hold me like a trophy
Clingin' so close, make me miss when I was lonely
[Chorus]
And oh, oh, keep me on the down low
Oh, oh, keep me on the down low
Told you not to tell your friends about me
But you always want a girl to show
And oh, oh, keep me on the down low
Oh, oh, keep me on the down low
Now you tell your friends that I'm a mess
And I'm just someone that you don't even know
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh (Keep me on the down low)
(Keep me on the down low)
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh (Keep me on the down low)
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh (Keep me on the down low)
(Keep me on the down low)
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh
