Same Old Song Lyrics

Where were you when I needed you eight months ago
All your girlfriends talkin bout me
Now you ringing up my phone
Bet you miss me now baby,
I bet you'll kiss me now baby
Especially since you know that this ain't nothin and I only just begun

You never thought that I would ever go this far
You said potential could never last this long
Well baby I've been alone for almost all my life
What makes you think that you could ever do me right?

You're the same old song

And now I'm poppin yeah
Ain't nobody showed me how
I made it big poppin yeah
Tell me how you like me now
I swear I loved you girl
And you probably went and fucked the world
Well you can take another shot everytime you hear me playin in the club

You never thought that I would ever go this far
You said potential could never last this long
Well baby I've been alone for almost all my life
What makes that you think you could ever do me right?

You're the same old song

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

meanings pretty straight up, i think this is to whoever he was singing about in "the knowing" and now she's hitting him back up and he knows it only because he's kinda blown up. he knows it too so he's calling her out because he knows she hasnt changed & this is his response.

life is better without you.. reeal shit

I hear "fucked around" rather than "fucked the world"
