Basic Lyrics by Elyse Jewel

Dear Diary - EP

2022

[Verse 1]
It ain't subtle when you're right over there
Making her laugh like that
It ain't subtle but I don't even care (Oh, oh oh)
Last summer you said I was the one
Sounded good rolling off your tongue
It's a bummer 'cause I still bring you up (Oh, oh, oh)

[Pre-Chorus]
Falling easy
Somebody stop me now
Say you're changing
Maybe I'll stick around

[Chorus]
I like boys who act like they love me
Hit me up whenever they're lonely
Just my type, I wish I could hate it
Just a little bit
I like boys who tell me I'm pretty
Give in the moment they kiss me
Just my type, I wish I could hate it
I'm just a little bit basic

[Verse 2]
So get closer, let me forget again
What I told my friends, it ain't over
Play dumb and pretend (Oh, oh, oh)

[Pre-Chorus]
Falling easy
Somebody stop me now
Say you're changing
Maybe I'll stick around

[Chorus]
I like boys who act like they love me
Hit me up whenever they're lonely
Just my type, I wish I could hate it
Just a little bit
I like boys who tell me I'm pretty
Give in the moment they kiss me
Just my type, I wish I could hate it
I'm just a little bit basic

[Post-Chorus]
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
Do you love me? Say that you love me
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
Just my type, I wish I could hate it
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
Just a little bit, just a little bit
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la (Just a little bit, little bit)
I'm just a little bit basic
