You’re So Last Summer Lyrics

[Verse 1]
She said
"Don't, don't let it go to your head
Boys like you are a dime a dozen
Boys like you are a dime a dozen"

She said
"You're a touch overrated
You're a lush and I hate it
But these grass stains on my knees
They won't mean a thing"


[Chorus]
And all I need to know
Is that I'm something you'll be missing
(Is that I'm something that you're missing)
Maybe I should hate you for this
(Maybe I should hate you for this)
Never really did ever quite get that far
Maybe I should hate you for this
(Maybe I should hate you for this)
Never really did ever quite get that

[Verse 2]
I'd never lie to you, unless I had to
I'll do what I got to
Unless I had to
I'll do what I got to

The truth is you could slit my throat
And with my one last gasping breath
I'd apologize for bleeding on your shirt

[Chorus]
And all I need to know
Is that I'm something you'll be missing
(Is that I'm something that you're missing)
Maybe I should hate you for this
(Maybe I should hate you for this)
Never really did ever quite get that far
Maybe I should hate you for this
(Maybe I should hate you for this)
Never really did ever quite get that

[Bridge]
'Cause I'm a wishful thinker with the worst intentions
This will be the last chance you get to drop my name
'Cause I'm a wishful thinker with the worst intentions
This will be the last chance you get to drop my name
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar
(Maybe I should hate you for this)
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar
(Maybe I should hate you for this)
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar
(Maybe I should hate you for this)
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar
(Maybe I should hate you for this)
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar
Maybe I should hate you for this
(If only you knew half as much as you pretend to)
Maybe I should hate you for this
(If only you knew half as much as you pretend to)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

This song about a guy who really likes a girl and is actually given a chance with her. To the girl, who is probably popular and well-known, the guy is nothing special and just another guy. From the guy’s point of view he has the best thing ever and he devoted to her. When the girl finally starts to drop him, the song is basically him begging for her and wondering if this was all just a big mistake.Eventually,the guy’s fragile mind and perhaps the girl’s cruelty to him led to the guys suicide or self-harm or something very negative.
