Blame It On U Lyrics

[Intro]
Eh-eh-XCX Charli

[Chorus]
I blame it on you, I blame it on you
Every lie you tell comes true (true)
But I still wanna be with you (you)
I blame it on you (yeah)
You, I blame it on you, I blame it on you
Every lie you tell comes true (true)
But I still wanna be with you (you)
I blame it on you (yeah)

[Verse 1]
We met in the springtime
So cool, you were all nice
Bright star, burnin’ so bright
You’re my type, you’re all I want
Oh, your eyes cut deep like a sharp knife
Open my legs with the pressure and make me feel alright
Uh-huh, so good, but I know you’re bad for me
You got control, and you love the game
But open my legs with the pressure and do it all again, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
Pull up in a new thing, wrists all fresh like, "Oh my God"
I’ll stick like a group, I know exactly what I want
Bad boy make a bad girl good, boy you’re driving me so wild
You’re driving me so wild, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
I blame it on you, I blame it on you
Every lie you tell comes true (true)
But I still wanna be with you (you)
I blame it on you (yeah)
You, I blame it on you, I blame it on you
Every lie you tell comes true (true)
But I still wanna be with you (you)
I blame it on you (yeah)

[Verse 2]
I get drunk on the white wine
Call you, like a hotline
You’re stuck up in my mind
Not alright, what’s goin’ on?
Don’t usually do this
With you, I’m an addict
But open my legs with the pressure and candy floss kisses
Uh-huh, so good, but I know you’re bad for me
You got control, and you love the game
But open my legs with the pressure and do it all again, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
Pull up in a new thing, feel so cool up in your ride
Take drugs, what a waste, be racin’, love it when you drive
Bad boy make a bad girl, now that’s got my head so high
I’m feelin’ fuckin’ high, yeah, yeah
(I blame it on...)
[Chorus]
I blame it on you, I blame it on you
Every lie you tell comes true (true)
But I still wanna be with you (you)
I blame it on you (yeah)
You, I blame it on you, I blame it on you
Every lie you tell comes true (true)
But I still wanna be with you (you)
I blame it on you (yeah)

[Bridge]
Bad boy make a bad girl, bad boy make a bad girl
Bad boy make a bad girl, bad boy make a bad girl
Bad boy make a bad girl, bad boy make a bad girl
Bad boy make a bad girl, bad boy make a bad girl
Bad boy make a bad girl, bad boy make a bad girl
Bad boy make a bad girl, bad boy make a bad girl

[Chorus]
I blame it on you, I blame it on you
Every lie you tell comes true (true)
But I still wanna be with you (you)
I blame it on you (yeah)
(Bad boy make a bad girl, bad boy make a bad girl…)
You, I blame it on you, I blame it on you
Every lie you tell comes true (true)
But I still wanna be with you (you)
I blame it on you (yeah)
You

Genius Annotation

“Blame It On U,” like the title suggests, finds Charli blaming a lover for her attachment to him. Though she’s the one who’s ‘addicted’ to him, she feels as though he’s made her “high” off his love and, like an addict, she’s unable to quit. Even though it seems like she knows it’s a bad idea, she’s unapologetic about it, singing:

You, I blame it on you, I blame it on you
Every lie you tell comes true (true)
But I still wanna be with you (you)…
