Tryin' to keep my records straight ‘cause it will never be the same
You’re lovely under, tryin’ to be undercover

[Verse 1]
You say we're somethin’, somethin' or another
Tryna to keep my records straight 'cause it will never be the same
You’re lovely under, tryna to be undercover
I said if you wanna keep your face then you better keep out my way, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]

Why did you spread all those rumors?
Trying to match all conclusions
Don't sell yourself off illusions, illusions, illusions (Yeah, yeah)
I just think you're crazy if you think I'm into you (Woo, woo)
Maybe if you’re smart enough to think it might be true
[Chorus]
So, why you gotta be like that?

You're one step, two step for another
Three step, did you keep it undercover?
Yeah, you’re so difficult
