Jazzy Joint
J.A.M Feat. José James Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'd rather be smoking weed
Whenever we breathe
Everytime you kiss me
Don't say that you miss me
Just come get me

Don't know why just know I want to
Don't know why just know I want you

I'd rather be breaking things
Cause we can't see
We're too busy kissing
Just making scenes
Here come the police
They know about your history




How you live and love like "fuck rules"?
Don't care why, just know I love you
