Girlfriend Lyrics by MNEK

Language

2018

[Intro]
(MNEK)
If your girlfriend knew
'Bout me and you
'Bout what we do (what we do)
Tell me what would she do?
Yeah if you told the truth
And said the word
Someone like her
Just isn't right for you

[Verse 1]
I'm a little secret nobody's supposed to know
You wanna keep this on the hush, keep this on the low
I'm the reason she's wondering why you're never home
Why you're never home (never, never)

[Pre-Chorus]
But imagine if she knew you were -ing me
And acting irresponsibly
While she's home learning recipes
You've been in my bed constantly
Neither you or your story's straight
It's such a shame
For a second put yourself in her place

[Chorus]
If your girlfriend knew
'Bout me and you
'Bout what we do (what we do)
Tell me what would she do?
Yeah if you told the truth
And said the word
Someone like her
Just isn't right for you

[Verse 2]
Cause you're (look, look, look) (controversial) (go!)
I wish you would come out
I only see you when it's dark out
Every time "Hey can I come now?"
It's too late
I've never been to your house
That's why you always come round
You're so damn scared she'll find out

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause if she knew that you wear my jeans
Say my name when you fall asleep
It's your fifth anniversary
You've been at my yard constantly
Neither you or your story's straight
It's such a shame
For a second put yourself in her place

[Chorus]
If your girlfriend knew
'Bout me and you
'Bout what we do (what we do)
Tell me what would she do?
Yeah if you told the truth
And said the word
Someone like her
Just isn't right for you

[Chorus]
If your *bleep* knew
'Bout me and you
'Bout what we do
Tell me what would she do? (tell me, what would she do baby?)
Yeah if you told the truth
And said the word
Someone like her
Just isn't right for you

Tell me tell me what she’d do
If your girlfriend knew about me and you
If your girlfriend knew about me and you

[Bridge]
'Cause we're more than friends with benefits
Getting buck wild intimate
Yeah if I'm being honest
If you were honest
This could be more than innocent
'Cause I got what you need and what you want
But still you masquerade and you front
So counterfeit
You're talkin' about a house, you're talkin' about a wife and kids, please


[Verse 3]
Now I'm not saying I didn't play a part
But I've been chill
I've been real from the jump from the start
You say you will tell her
But it's gonna break her heart
You shoulda thought about that before you entered your car
Swearing up and down you love her to the moon and the stars
How can you be saying all that when she don't know who you are (like I do)
Neither you or your story's straight
It's such a shame
For a second put yourself in her place

[Chorus]
If your girlfriend knew
'Bout me and you
'Bout what we do (What we do)
Tell me what would she do?
Yeah if you told the truth
And said the word
Someone like her
Just isn't right for you

[Chorus]
If your *bleep* knew
'Bout me and you
'Bout what we do
Tell me what would she do?
Yeah if you told the truth
And said the word
Someone like her
Just isn't right for you

[Chorus]
If your girlfriend knew
'Bout me and you
'Bout what we do
Tell me what would she do?
Yeah if you told the truth
And said the word
Someone like her
Just isn't right for you

[Chorus]
If your girlfriend knew
'Bout me and you
'Bout what we do
Tell me what would she do?
Yeah if you told the truth
And said the word
Someone like her
Just isn't right for you

[Outro]
If your girlfriend knew
'Bout me and you
