Slow Down

[Verse 1]

Close the door and take the stairs

Up or down, ups and downs

Well, don't pretend you've never been there

You kiss me like an over-dramatic actor

Who's starving for work

With one last shot to make it happen

You've won the role, you've played your part

You've been cordially invited

But I'm not impressed, and I'm definitely not excited

'Cause the film runs a shallow budget

And the writer's subject script isn't any deeper

So dive right in

[Pre-Chorus]

Hollywood hills and suburban thrills

Hey you, who are you kidding?

I'm not like them, I won't buy in

Hollywood hills and suburban thrills

Hey you, who are you kidding?

Don't quit 'til 47

Then we'll turn it up, and we'll play a little faster

[Chorus]

Take back everything you ever said

You never meant a word of it

You never did

Take back everything you said

You never meant a word of it

You never did

[Verse 2]

She said

"Alright alright, slow down"

Oh no, oh no, we won't

'Cause I regret everything that I said

To ever make her feel like she was something special

Or that she ever really mattered

Or did she ever really matter?

[Pre-Chorus]

Hollywood hills and suburban thrills

Hey you, who are you kidding?

I'm not like them, I won't buy in

Hollywood hills and suburban thrills

Just don't count on this summer

Don't quit 'til 47

And then we'll turn it up, and we'll play a little faster

[Chorus]

Take back everything you ever said

You never meant a word of it

You never did

Take back everything you said

You never meant a word of it

You never did

[Bridge]

I'm not saying that I'm not breaking

Some hearts tonight, girl, oh

I'm not saying that I'm not breaking

Some hearts tonight, girl

Alright, alright, slow down

[Chorus]

Take back everything you ever said

You never meant a word of it

You never did

Take back everything you said

You never meant a word of it

You never did

[Outro]

Hollywood hills and suburban thrills

Hey you, who are you kidding?

I'm not like them, I won't buy in

Hollywood hills and suburban thrills

Hey you, who are you kidding?

I'm not like them, I won't buy in

Hollywood hills and suburban thrills

Hey you, who are you kidding?

I'm not like them, I won't buy in
