Basic Being Basic Lyrics by Djo
Get food, barely eat
Every bite just kept me glued to my seat
I worried, even cried
How’d it feel to take the light from my life?
Bad habit, even worse
50/50, I’m a sucker for looks
Asked for it, here it is
A quick example ’cause you wanted the hit
I think you’re scared of being basic
That’s ironic ’cause it’s reading like you’re even more basic
It’s not funny, it’s so funny, ’cause you’re basic
Just looking out and keeping monotone
And understating that nothing is wrong change it (You’d like that, fuck is your boy?)
It’s not funny, but it’s so funny
I don’t want your money
I don’t care for fame
I don’t want to live a life where that’s my big exchange
I want simple pleasures, friends who have my back
Everyone has secrets, but not everyone can fool a man like that
It sent me reeling, it’s still not the same
It’s like my capacity to love and give has changed
I guess I’ll thank you and spite your name again
The past of has, and I’ll outlast the hate to find real love that’s not pretend
How basic (Sell me on it)
Shuffle numbers, pointing fingers, ditching chats and different apps
That’s basic
It’s not funny, it’s so funny, that’s just basic being basic
(Ba-ba-ba-ba-basic)
You said he looked just like a girl so you like girls like you saw
I guess I’ll take it
Yeah, that’s funny, you’re so funny (Ohh, ha, ha, ha)
Change your body, change your face
Curl your hair and make it straight
Take a picture of your plate, Tarantino movie days (Rah-rah)
Joogie voh, Vera Bradleys back in vogue
It’s a flash photograph
What an empty epitaph that is (That’s basic)
What an empty epitaph that is (That’s basic)
What an empty epitaph (That’s basic being basic)
Yeah, my entire life, I might get a laugh as is if that’s funny
I’m not funny
