[English]

Come hang out

'Cause you're out of your mind

You're working so damn hard

You forgot what you like

And come hang out

Don't you leave us behind

But I'll be there next time

I'll be there next time

I can't complain, no, I won't be mourning

'Cause I skipped on prom

For Elvis Duran in the morning, yeah

All of my life I have been starving

Not for a dinner with friends, more of a starving artist

Yep, yep I'm gonna miss this someday

Yep, yep I missed another Friday

And all my friends say

Come hang out

'Cause you're out of your mind

You're working so damn hard

You forgot what you like

And come hang out

Don't you leave us behind

But I'll be there next time

I'll be there next time

Last album's sales could have been higher

Maybe that's why I haven't seen friends in awhile

They're at a bar down in the Bahamas

While I'm doing promo, tryna blow up in Chicago

Yep, yep I'm gonna miss it someday

Yep yep I missed another Friday

And all my friends say

Come hang out

'Cause you're out of your mind

You're working so damn hard

You forgot what you like

And come hang out

Don't you leave us behind

But I'll be there next time

I'll be there next time

Come hang out

'Cause you're out of your mind

You're working so damn hard

You forgot what you like

And come hang out

Don't you leave us behind

But I'll be there next time

I'll be there next time

Come hang out

'Cause you're missing a lot

You haven't gone that far

You can find a real job (find a real job)

Then come hang out

We can save you a shot

But I'll be there next time

I'll be there next time

...

Should I go for more clicks this year?

Or should I follow the click in my ear?

Should I go for more clicks this year?

Or should I follow the click in my ear?

Should I go for more clicks this year?

Or should I follow the click in my ear?

Should I go for more clicks this year?

Or should I follow the click in my ear?
