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 overdramatic
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
Because the film runs a shallow budget
And the writer's subject script isn't any deeper
So dive right 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?
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. She said
'Alright, alright, slow down! Oh no, oh no, we won't
'Cause I regret everything I said to ever make her feel
Like she was something special
Or that she ever really mattered
Did she ever really matter?
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. Then we'll turn it up and
We'll play a little faster
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
I'm not saying that I'm not
Breaking some hearts tonight, girl
Alright, alright, slow down
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
