This song is about a girl which doesn’t like to party and everyone think that she is “too precious”. As Emily Beihold said on her TikTok account before it came out: “Are you kind of an innocent being that goes to parties and you don’t know how to operate? Cuz me too, so I wrote a song about it.”
[Verse 1]
I've got my own idea of fun
Don't need to get drunk at the club
And start kissing strangers
Don't like the danger
I like to stay at home at night
You think it's lame but I'm alright
Don't need your two cents
On my life events
[Pre-Chorus]
And maybe we'd be friends
But it's too hard
When I can't blend into your world
Not that kind of girl
[Chorus]
'Cause according to you I'm too precious
You're wishin' that I was more reckless
You're wishin' that I would smoke 'til I'm high
And play with the guys, regret this
You're wishin' that I was more trouble
Sorry for bein' a struggle
I do what I want and may not be your type
Sorry, I can't be a person you like
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm
[Verse 2]
I never wanted to offend
Do what you want, I can't pretend
That I'm a rebel, not on your level
I need control inside my head
'Cause if it's gone, I'm dead
And I could try to forget it but you just don't get it yourself
[Pre-Chorus]
And maybe we'd be friends
But it's too hard
When I can't blend into your world
Not that kind of girl
[Chorus]
'Cause according to you I'm too precious
You're wishin' that I was more reckless
You're wishin' that I would smoke 'til I'm high
And play with the guys, regret this
You're wishin' that I was more trouble
Sorry for bein' a struggle
I do what I want and may not be your type
Sorry, I can't be a person you like
[Bridge]
I guess that you need your escape
But I'll stay here
I don't need to disappear
Between what's real and what is fake
You stress me out
'Cause accordin' to you, I'm too precious (Precious)
You're wishin' that I was more reckless (Reckless)
But you're followin' the crowd, now
Sorry to let you down
[Chorus]
'Cause according to you I'm too precious
You're wishin' that I was more reckless
You're wishin' that I would smoke 'til I'm high
And play with the guys, regret this
You're wishin' that I was more trouble
Sorry for bein' a struggle
I do what I want and may not be your type
Sorry, I can't be a person you like
[Outro]
Ba-da, ba-da, ba-da, la-da (Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm)
Ba-da, ba-da, ba-da, la-da (Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm)
