Lyrics:

[English]

I could go and read your mind

Think about your dumb face all the time

Living in your glass house, I'm outside, uh

Looking into big blue eyes

Did it just to hurt me and make me cry

Smiling through it all, yeah, that's my life

You're an idiot, now I'm sure

Now I'm positive

I should go and warn her

Ooh, bet you're thinking she's so cool

...

Kicking back on your couch

Making eyes from across the room

Wait, I think I've been there too, ooh

...

What'd she do to get you off? (Uh-huh)

Taking down her hair like, "oh my God!"

Taking off your shirt, I did that once

Or twice, uh

No, I know, I know - off (uh-huh)

But I think I like her, she's so fun

Wait, I think I hate her, I'm not that evolved

I'm sorry she's missing it, sad, sad boy

Not my business, but I had to warn ya

Ooh, bet you're thinking she's so cool

Kicking back on your couch

Making eyes from across the room

Wait, I think I've been there too, ooh

Ooh (ooh), you've got me thinking she's so cool (ooh, ooh)

But I know what I know

And you're just another dude

Ooh, that's so true, ooh

Made it out alive, but I think I lost it

Said that I was fine, said it from my coffin

Remember how I died when you started walking?

That's my life, that's my life

I put up a fight, taking out my earrings

Don't you know the vibe? Don't you know the feeling?

You should spend the night, catch me on your ceiling

That's your prize, that's your prize, well

Mm, bet you're thinking she's so cool

Kicking back on your couch

Making eyes from across the room

Wait, I think I've been there too, ooh

Oh-ooh (ooh), you've got me thinking she's so cool (ooh)

But I know what I know

And you're just another dude

Ooh, that's so true, ooh, ooh, oh

...

Grammar:

  • I could go and read your mind

    ➔ Modal verb "could" + infinitive

    "Could" expresses possibility or a suggestion. Here, it suggests the speaker is capable of reading the other person's mind, though not necessarily that they will.

  • Living in your glass house, I'm outside, uh

    ➔ Present participle "Living" as an adverbial phrase.

    ➔ The phrase "Living in your glass house" modifies the main clause, indicating the circumstance under which the speaker is outside. It's essentially short for "While I am living in your glass house..."

  • Did it just to hurt me and make me cry

    ➔ Infinitive of purpose: "to hurt me and make me cry".

    ➔ The infinitive phrase "to hurt me and make me cry" explains the reason why 'it' was done. It indicates the purpose or intention behind the action.

  • I should go and warn her

    ➔ Modal verb "should" + bare infinitive (go and warn).

    "Should" expresses obligation or advice. In this case, it suggests the speaker feels obligated to warn the other woman. "Go and warn" uses two verbs connected by 'and', both following "should".

  • Wait, I think I've been there too, ooh

    ➔ Present Perfect tense (I've been)

    "I've been there" indicates an experience that occurred at some point in the speaker's past, and it is relevant to the present situation. It implies that the speaker has also been in a similar situation with the person they're talking about.

  • What'd she do to get you off?

    ➔ Reduced auxiliary verb "did" ("What'd"). Phrasal verb "get off" (meaning to cause to reach orgasm).

    ➔ The contraction "What'd" is a colloquial shortening of "What did." The phrasal verb "get off" has a sexual connotation in this context, meaning to cause someone to experience an orgasm. The sentence inquires about what actions the other woman performed to achieve this.

  • Taking off your shirt, I did that once Or twice, uh

    ➔ Past Simple tense with emphasis on the action: "I did that". Ellipsis: omission of information understood from context

    "I did that" emphasizes that the speaker also used to take off the person's shirt. There's an implicit understanding that the full action is "I took off your shirt", but "I did that" serves to highlight the speaker's past experience.

  • But I think I like her, she's so fun

    ➔ Subordinating conjunction "but" introducing a contrasting idea. Use of adjective "fun" to describe a person (informal).

    "But" signals a shift in the speaker's feelings, contrasting with the previous line where she mentions getting the other person off. Calling someone "fun" is a colloquial way to describe someone who is enjoyable to be around.

  • Not my business, but I had to warn ya

    ➔ Past Simple tense to express obligation: "had to warn". Use of informal "ya" for "you".

    "Had to warn" implies the speaker felt compelled or obligated to warn the person. "Ya" is a casual, colloquial shortening of "you", common in informal speech.
