TG4M
Zara Larsson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I get high all the time
I get drunk out my mind and call you at five in the morning
And I say what I like
And I don't like playing nice
I might pick a fight without warning
But it gets boring

I try to keep it cool
And turn it down for you
But I'm never gonna change
And that's why I be saying, boy

You're too good for me, but I want, but I want you anyway
And I know that I don't fit in, but I want, but I want you anyway
Only you, only me, and that is all that I need
Only you, only me, only you
Boy, you're too good for me but I want, but I want you anyway

I don't pick up the phone
Take an hour or longer
To write something back when you text me
Tell you, "leave me alone"
Need some time on my own
But soon as you gone, come and get me
Oh, baby, come and get me, uh

I try to keep it cool, yeah
And turn it down for you
But I'm never gonna change
And that's why I be saying, boy

You're too good for me but I want, but I want you anyway
And I know that I don't fit in, but I want, but I want you anyway
Only you, only me, and that is all that I need
Only you, only me, only you
Boy you're too good for me but I want, but I want you anyway

You're too good for me, but I want, but I
You're too good for me, but I want, but I
You're too good for me, but I want, but I
You're too good for me, but I want, but I

You're too good for me but I want, but I want you anyway
And I know that I don't fit in, but I want, but I want you anyway
Only you, only me, and that is all that I need
Only you, only me, only you
Boy you're too good for me but I want, but I want you anyway

You're too good for me, but I want, but I
You're too good for me, but I want, but I




You're too good for me, but I want, but I
You're too good for me, but I want, but I want you anyway

Overall Meaning

The song "TG4M" by Zara Larsson is a confession of a person who cannot resist their temptation towards someone who they know is not good for them. The singer sings about being high and drunk all the time and calling this person at five in the morning without caring how they come across. She doesn't like playing nice and might even pick a fight without any warnings because it gets boring otherwise.


The singer is well aware that this person is too good for them and they don't fit in, but they want them anyway. Even though the singer tries to keep it cool and turn it down for this person, she knows she will never change. The chorus repeats the line, "you're too good for me, but I want, but I want you anyway" to reinforce the notion that the singer is fully aware of the situation but can't help how they feel.


The song is a representation of a typical scenario where a person is addicted to someone who they know is not good for them. This is a relatable situation for many people, as they might have experienced something similar at some point in their lives. The song has an upbeat and catchy tune which makes it easy to sing along, emphasising the allure of the addiction.


Line by Line Meaning

I get high all the time
I frequently use drugs to make myself feel better


I get drunk out my mind and call you at five in the morning
When I'm under the influence, I have a tendency to make impulsive phone calls to you


And I say what I like
I speak my mind without any filter, even if it's not appropriate


And I don't like playing nice
I don't care for polite, diplomatic behavior


I might pick a fight without warning
Sometimes I create conflict without any apparent reason


But it gets boring
But eventually, such behavior becomes monotonous and tedious


I try to keep it cool
I make an effort to stay calm and collected


And turn it down for you
I suppress my wilder impulses for your sake


But I'm never gonna change
But fundamentally, I'm not going to transform my personality


And that's why I be saying, boy
That's why I tell you


You're too good for me, but I want, but I want you anyway
I don't think I'm good enough for you, but I desire you nevertheless


And I know that I don't fit in, but I want, but I want you anyway
I acknowledge that I don't belong in your world, but I still want you


Only you, only me, and that is all that I need
It's just you and me, and that's all I require to be content


Only you, only me, only you
The only things that matter are you and me


Boy, you're too good for me but I want, but I want you anyway
Dude, you're out of my league, but I have a burning desire for you


I don't pick up the phone
I don't answer calls


Take an hour or longer
It takes me a long time to reply to texts


To write something back when you text me
When you message me, it takes me a while to come up with a reply


Tell you, "leave me alone"
I often ask you to give me some space


Need some time on my own
I require some solitude and independence


But soon as you gone, come and get me
But as soon as you're not around, I crave your company


Oh, baby, come and get me, uh
Oh, honey, I want you to come and find me


You're too good for me, but I want, but I
I'm aware that you're amazing, yet I still desire you


You're too good for me, but I want, but I
You're way better than me, yet I'm still attracted to you


You're too good for me, but I want, but I
You're clearly out of my league, yet I still crave you


You're too good for me, but I want, but I want you anyway
I know you're too good for me, but I want you regardless
