Bang!
AJR (feat. Hayley Kiyoko) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And the rumpus and ruckus are comfortable now
Been a hell of a ride, but I'm thinking it's time to grow
Bang, bang, bang
So I got an apartment across from the park
Put quinoa in my fridge, still I'm not feeling grown
Been a hell of a ride, but I'm thinking it's time to go
Bang, bang, bang (here we go)
So put your best face on, everybody
Pretend you know this song, everybody
Come hang
Let's go out with a bang
Bang, bang, bang
I'm way too young to lie here forever
I'm way too old to try, so whatever
Come hang
Let's go out with a bang
Bang, bang, bang
So this girl's on my block, keep on messin' me up
And I gave her my keys, now I'm changin' my lock
Been a hell of a ride, but I think that it's time to grow
Time to grow, yeah (metronome)
I just want a challenge, but I'm way too stressed
'Cause I've been way off balance, tryna take these meds
To make me feel safe (feel safe), but I'm afraid it may be too late
(Here we go)
So put your best face on, everybody
Pretend you know this song, everybody
Come hang
Let's go out with a bang
Bang, bang, bang
I'm way too young to lie here forever
I'm way too old to try, so whatever
Come hang
Let's go out with a bang
Bang, bang, bang, (bang, bang-bang-bang-bang) (go out with a bang)
Bang, bang, bang, (bang, bang-bang-bang-bang, bang)
Been a hell of a ride, but I'm thinking it's time to go
So put your best face on, everybody
Pretend you know this song
Everybody come hang
Let's go out with a bang
Bang, bang, bang (here we go)
So put your best face on, everybody
Pretend you know this song, everybody
Come hang (come hang)
Let's go out with a bang
Bang, bang, bang, (bang, bang-bang-bang-bang)
I'm way too young to lie here forever
I'm way too old to try, so whatever
Come hang (come hang)
Let's go out with a bang
Bang, bang, bang (here we go)
(Bang, bang)
