[Intro]
Oh, sweetheart, put the bottle down
You've got too much talent
I see you through those bloodshot eyes
There's a cure, you've found it
[Verse 1]
Slow motion, sparks you caught that chill
Now don't deny it
But boys will be boys oh, yes they will
They don't want to define it
Just give up the game and get into me
If you're looking for thrills, then get cold feet
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh no, I do not hook up, up
I go slow, so if you want me
I don't come cheap
Keep your thing in your pants
And your heart on your sleeve
[Chorus]
Oh no, I do not hook up, up
I fall deep
'Cause the more that you try
The harder I'll fight
To say goodnight
[Verse 2]
I can't cook, no but I can clean
Up the mess you left
Lay your head down
And feel the beat as I kiss
[Verse 3]
Your forehead, this may not last
But this is now
So love the one you're with
You wanna chase
But you're chasing your tail
Quick fix won't ever get you well
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh no, I do not hook up, up
I go slow, so if you want me
I don't come cheap
Keep your thing in your pants
And your heart on your sleeve
[Chorus]
Oh no, I do not hook up, up
I fall deep
'Cause the more that you try
The harder I'll fight
To say goodnight
[Bridge]
'Cause I feel the distance between us
Could be over with a snap of your fingers
Oh, oh, oh, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh no, I do not hook up, up
I go slow, so if you want me
I don't come cheap
Keep your thing in your pants
And your heart on your sleeve
[Chorus]
Oh no, I do not hook up, up
I fall deep
'Cause the more that you try
The harder I'll fight
To say goodnight
[Outro]
Oh, sweetheart
Put the bottle down
'Cause you don't
Wanna miss out
Hook Up was written by Kara DioGuardi & Katy Perry.
Hook Up was produced by Greg Wells.
Kara DioGuardi:
Katy came over to my house and we sat on the kitchen floor and wrote the rest of it. Kelly [Clarkson] changed one of the lines. She wouldn’t say, ‘keep your thing in your pants.’
