Mashup! Lyrics

[Verse 1: Stay With Me]
Guess it's true I'm no good at a one night stand
But I still need love 'cause I'm just a man
These nights never seem to go to plan
I don't want you to leave, will you hold my hand?

[Pre-Chorus: Pompeii]
And if you close your eyes
Does it almost feel like nothing's changed at all?
If you close your eyes
Does it almost feel like you've been here before?

[Chorus: She Looks So Perfect]
You look so perfect standing there
In my American Apparel underwear
And I know now
That I'm so down
Your lipstick stains are a work of art
I've got your name tattooed in an arrow heart
And I know now
That I'm so down

[Post-Chorus]
Ohh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
(Ahhh)
Oh oh oh oh
Oooh
[Verse 2: Stay With Me]
Why am I so emotional?
No, it's not a good look, gain some self control
Deep down, I know this never works
You can stay with me so it doesn't hurt

[Pre-Chorus: Pompeii]
And if you close your eyes
Does it almost feel like nothing's changed at all?
If you close your eyes
Does it almost feel like you've been here before?

[Chorus: She Looks So Perfect]
You look so perfect standing there
In my American Apparel underwear
And I know now
That I'm so down
Your lipstick stains are a work of art
I've got your name tattooed in an arrow heart
And I know now (I know now)
That I'm so down

[Post-Chorus]
Ohh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
(Ahhh)
Oh oh oh oh
Oooh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
[Bridge: Budapest]
So give me one good reason why I should never make a change
Baby, if you hold me, then all of this will go away
Give me one good reason why I should never make a change
Oh, baby, if you hold me, then all of this will go away

[Chorus: She Looks So Perfect]
'Cause you look so perfect standing there
In my American Apparel underwear
And I know now
That I'm so down
Your lipstick stain is a work of art
I've got your name tattooed in an arrow heart
And I know now (I know now)
That I'm so down

[Post-Chorus]
Ohh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
(Ahhh)
Oh oh oh oh
Oooh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oooh

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

“Mashup!” by dodie is a mashup of the songs:

In the video intro, dodie explains how the mashup came about:

So, for some reason, I went through the 2014 music charts and mashed together some verses and choruses to make a brand new song. I don’t know why.
