Attention Lyrics

[Intro: Matt, Mitch and Kirstin]

[Verse 1: Scott (Mitch)]
Woah-oa
Runnin' 'round, runnin' 'round, runnin' 'round
Throwin' that dirt all on my name
'Cause you knew that I, knew that I, knew that I'd
Call you up, (baby)
You've been going 'round, going 'round, going 'round
Every party in LA
'Cause you knew that I, knew that I, knew that I'd
Be in one

[Pre-Chorus: Mitch]
I know that dress is karma, perfume regret
You got me thinking 'bout when you were mine (Thinking about when you were mine)
And now I'm all up on ya, what you expect?
But you're not coming home with me tonight

[Chorus: Kirstin]
You just want attention, you don't want my heart
Maybe you just hate the thought of me with someone new
Yeah, you just want attention, I knew from the start
You're just making sure I'm never gettin' over you, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa
[Verse 2: Scott]
Runnin' 'round, runnin' 'round, runnin' 'round
Throwin' that dirt all on my name
'Cause you knew that I, knew that I, knew that I'd
Call you up ('Cause I knew, I'd call ya)
Baby, now that we're, now that we're, now that we're
Right here standin' face to face
You already knew, 'ready knew, 'ready knew
That you won

[Pre-Chorus: Mitch]
I know that dress is karma, perfume regret, yeah
You got me thinking 'bout when you were mine (Thinking 'bout when you were mine)
And now I'm all up on ya, what you expect? Yeah
But you're not coming home with me tonight

[Chorus: Kirstin]
You just want attention, you don't want my heart
Maybe you just hate the thought of me with someone new
Yeah, you just want attention, I knew from the start
You're just making sure I'm never gettin' over you (Over you)

[Bridge]
What are you doin' to me?
What are you doin', oh no?
What are you doin' to me?
What are you doin', oh?
What are you doin' to me?
What are you doin', oh?
What are you doin'?
What are you doin'?
[Chorus: Mitch]
You just want attention, you don't want my heart
(What are you doin' to me? What are you doin'?)
Maybe you just hate the thought of me with someone new
(What are you doin' to me? What are you doin', oh?)
Yeah, you just want attention, I knew from the start
(What are you doin' to me? What are you doin'?)
You're just making sure I'm never gettin' over you, oh

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • 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 [?]
