“Malibu” is a lyrical continuation of “What’s It Feel Like?”, with the repetition of the phrase “I did it again” and the mention of “Malibu,” which is also present in the former’s lyrics.
I can’t pretend when the Malibu sun’s
Gone straight to your hair

[Verse 1]
I watched you board an airplane
A high dive from the summer's heat wave, down
A bit tongue and a taste of iron
Sweethearts that high school soured now
Our time had grown to a closing
You moved when you ran out of money, stay
Your parents house in Ohio
Your old bed replaced with a treadmill, now
Well I come here more than you know
And I'm sure you think I've outgrown you
But I couldn't
[Chorus]
Oh, I did it again, I did it again
Oh, I did it again
Oh, I must still want you
[Verse 2]
Our names carved in the pavement
Sealed by what's left of our hand prints now
I told my mom she'd love to meet you
But it's too bad she won't get the chance to
[Chorus]
Oh, I did it again, I know I did it again
Oh, I did it again
I must still want you
[Post-Chorus]
And I might be part to blame
And I might be part to blame
[Bridge]
You're some old man's new trophy
Locked up in some house in New Jersey
Now money's not a problem
But twenty years it seems you've forgotten
Malibu, ninety-two
