Boys Like You

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Hold my head a little higher Can't you tell I love a liar? I know what I look like to you I would say it's excessive Or maybe damn impressive I'll admit, I'm confused [Pre-Chorus] I've gotta remember That I'm just a toy 'Though you got my hopes up And now I'm annoyed You thought you could charm me And, damn it, you're right So watch me fall for every damn stereotype [Chorus] You can't help it This is just how we were taught to love Oh, there's a name for boys like you And yet I feel lucky to hear all your lines I hate that they shake me up every time [Verse 2] Mmm-mmm-mmm Hold my hand for just a second See you soon, what do we reckon? Maybe I'm not just a friend But we're so close, I thought we'd kiss Turns out you're just good at this But how 'bout you do it again? [Pre-Chorus] Oh no, I gotta remember That I'm just a toy 'Though you got my hopes up And now I'm annoyed You thought you could charm me And, damn it, you're right So watch me fall for every damn stereotype [Chorus] You can't help it This is just how we were taught to love Oh, there's a name for boys like you And yet I feel lucky to hear all your lines I hate that they shake me up every time Guess I'll take it This is just how we were taught to love Oh, there's a name for boys like you And yet I feel lucky to hear all your lines I hate that they shake me up every time [Bridge] Mmm-mmm-mmm-ah They tell me, "Don't go there We know you love a nightmare There's more than a crush here Why aim to be crushed here?" They tell me, "Don't go there We know you love a nightmare There's more than a crush here Why aim to be crushed here?" [Outro] Oh, there's a name for boys like you (They tell me, "Don't go there We know you love a nightmare There's more than a crush here Why aim to be crushed here?" They tell me, "Don't go there We know you love a nightmare There's more than a crush here Why aim to—") You can't help it (They tell me, "Don't go there We know you love a nightmare") This is just how we were taught to love ("There's more than a crush here Why aim to be crushed here?") Oh, there's a name for boys like you (They tell me, "Don't go there We know you love a nightmare") And yet I feel lucky to hear all your lines ("There's more than a crush here") I hate that they shake me up every time ("Why aim to be crushed here?") Guess I'll take it (They tell me, "Don't go there We know you love a nightmare") This is just how we were taught to love ("There's more than a crush here Why aim to be crushed here?") Oh, there's a name for boys like you (They tell me, "Don't go there We know you love a nightmare") And yet I feel lucky to hear all your lines I hate that they shake me up every time
