Lips Are Movin
Meghan Trainor Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If your lips are moving, if your lips are moving
If your lips are moving, then you're lyin', lyin', lyin', baby
If your lips are moving, if your lips are moving
If your lips are moving, (I said) then you're lyin', lyin', lyin', baby

Boy, look at me in my face
Tell me that you're not just about this bass
You really think I could be replaced
Nah, I come from outer space
And I'm a classy girl, I'ma hold it up
You're full of something but it ain't love
And what we got, straight overdue
Go find somebody new

You can buy me diamond earrings and deny-ny-ny, ny-ny-ny, deny-ny
But I smell her on your collar so goodbye-bye-bye, bye-bye-bye

I know you lie (lie)
'Cause your lips are moving (moving)
Tell me do you think I'm dumb?
I might be young (young), but I ain't stupid (stupid)
Talking 'round in circles with your tongue
I gave you bass (bass), you gave me sweet talk (sweet talk)
Saying how I'm your number one
But I know you lie (lie)
'Cause your lips are moving (moving)
Baby, don't you know I'm done? (Hey)

If your lips are moving, if your lips are moving
If your lips are moving, then you're lyin', lyin', lyin', baby (hey)
If your lips are moving, if your lips are moving
If your lips are moving, then you're lyin', lyin', lyin', baby (hey)

Hey, baby, don't you bring them tears
'Cause it's too late, too late, baby, oh (hey)
You only love me when you're here
You're so two-faced, two-faced, babe (oh)

You can buy me diamond earrings and deny-ny-ny, ny-ny-ny, deny-ny
(Yes, you can, babe)
But I smell her on your collar so goodbye-bye-bye, bye-bye-bye (hey)

I know you lie (lie)
'Cause your lips are moving (moving)
Tell me do you think I'm dumb?
I might be young (young), but I ain't stupid (stupid) (no, no)
Talking 'round in circles with your tongue
I gave you bass (bass), you gave me sweet talk (sweet talk)
Saying how I'm your number one
But I know you lie (know you lie) (lie)
'Cause your lips are moving (moving)
Baby, don't you know I'm done?

Come on, say

If your lips are moving (hey, hey), if your lips are moving (hey, hey)
If your lips are moving, then you're lyin', lyin', lyin'
If your lips are moving (alright now), if your lips are moving
(I wanna hear y'all sing it with me)
If your lips are moving, then you're lyin', lyin', lyin' (here we go)

I know you lie (lie)
'Cause your lips are moving (moving)
Tell me do you think I'm dumb? (oh)
I might be young (young), but I ain't stupid (stupid) (no)
Talking 'round in circles with your tongue
I gave you bass (bass) (you're lips are moving)
You gave me sweet talk (sweet talk) (you're lips are moving)
Saying how I'm your number one (you're lips are moving)
But I know you lie (know you lie) (lie)
'Cause your lips are moving (moving) (you're lips are moving)
Baby, don't you know I'm done?

Say that you're interested in me, not just my body


You really think I could be replaced
Do you believe I'm so easy to replace?


Nah, I come from outer space
I'm unique and not like anyone else


And I'm a classy girl, I'ma hold it up
I'm a well-mannered, respectable woman


You're full of something but it ain't love
I know you have feelings, but it's not love


And what we got, straight overdue
Our relationship is way overdue for an ending


Go find somebody new
It's time for you to move on and find someone else

I might be young, but I ain't stupid
Just because I'm young doesn't mean I'm naive


Talking around in circles with your tongue
You're speaking in vague and evasive terms


I gave you bass, you gave me sweet talk
I gave you real love and support, and all you gave me is empty words


Saying how I'm your number one
Telling me that I'm the most important person in your life


Baby don't you know I'm done
I'm done with this relationship and it's time for us to move on


Hey baby don't you bring them tears
Don't try to make me cry or feel sad about this ending


'Cause it's too late, too late baby
It's already too late to fix things between us


You only love me when you're here
You only pretend to love me when you're around


You're so two-faced, two-faced babe
You're being fake and showing different sides of yourself


Come on, say!
Just say it!

Tell me why people are so focused on how she looks and not her singing? She has a great voice. Obviously your hate comments don't mean much since she hasn't made any comment about them. She's the one who's famous, making money, and is growing bigger in the music industry, meanwhile many of you are just throwing hate out there. 

@kaebree1672

She's so pretty when her hair is down and straight and she has such a big voice. I seriously am so excited for her next song!
