The Hills
The Weekend Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She feels like Hollywood hills
Not worried about her bills
She's got those looks that could kill
And I'm staring

You make me feel like I'm 15 years old
Too scared to speak, much less let you know
All the stupid things I say to myself
That I wouldn't dare whisper to anyone else
So I'll just write this down
Start asking when you're around

She feels like Hollywood hills
Not worried about her bills
She's got those looks that could kill
And I'm staring
I feel so broke in New York
But I don't really care anymore
Just like the mat by her door
She'll walk on me

You make me wish that I was 18 years old
No weight to bear and everywhere to go
So I could take you anywhere that you like
The whole wide world, just you and I
So I'll just write this down
Start asking when you're around

She feels like Hollywood hills
Not worried about her bills
She's got those looks that could kill
And I'm staring
I feel so broke in New York
But I don't really care anymore
Just like the mat by her door
She'll walk on me (whoo!)

She feels like hollywood hills
Yeah she got zeroes on checks and ink on deals HUH
She's got those looks that could kill
Yeah she been steppin on my neck in six inch heels HUH
She feels like hollywood hills
Yeah she got zeroes on checks and ink on deals HUH
She's got those looks that could kill
Yeah she been steppin on my neck in six inch heels HUH

She feels like Hollywood hills
Not worried about her bills
She's got those looks that could kill

She feels like Hollywood hills
Not worried about her bills
She's got those looks that could kill
And I'm staring
I feel so broke in New York
But I don't really care anymore




Just like the mat by her door
She'll walk on me (whoo!)

Teacher in the hall having a convo
You said keep our business on the low-low
I'm just tryna get them chemistry notes tho
'cuz your grades are better than the whole class so
even if you scared, give me the info 
When I'm done I'll bring them by your desk bro 
Found out I was coming, shook your head no 
Keep on tryna hide it but she won't know 

I only call you when it's half past two.  
The only time I can get notes from you.
I only trust them when it's chemistry, not biology. 
Cuz you really suck, at biology
Yeah you really suck at biology, sorry 

I'ma let you know and keep it simple, 
Tryna write these quickly aint that simple 
I just had two classes 'fore I saw you
So just let me copy at my tempo 
Always tryna tell me "go to the labs"
But that sounds so boring, I'd need decaf
I'm just tryna stay out of remedial class  
And teachers always expect for me to relapse
