Parents Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You're in my bed when I wake up
But there ain't no hearts by your name in my phone
You pick me up from my place, but
When you take me out, boy, I pay for my own
You can put your arms around me when I dance
You can hold my hand
I just hope you understand that
We ain't gotta put a label on it
If I'm bein' honest

[Chorus]
I ain't tryna meet your parents
We don't gotta take it there yet
Let's just leave it up in the air, yeah
'Cause I ain't tryna meet, no
I ain't tryna meet, I'll
Shut down every Broadway bar with you
Make out in the back of my car with you
If you give me that hoodie, I'll wear it
But I ain't tryna meet, no, I ain't tryna meet, no
I ain't tryna meet your parents

[Post-Chorus]
No-no-no, no-no-no
I ain't tryna meet your parents
No-no-no, no-no-no
[Verse 2]
We don't gotta complicate us
Don't call it love 'cause I love where we at
There ain't no way we can break up
When we ain't got no strings attached
If you're cool with that

[Chorus]
I ain't tryna meet your parents
We don't gotta take it there yet
Let's just leave it up in the air, yeah
'Cause I ain't tryna meet, no
I ain't tryna meet, I'll
Shut down every Broadway bar with you
Make out in the back of my car with you
If you give me that hoodie, I'll wear it
But I ain't tryna meet, no, I ain't tryna meet, no
I ain't tryna meet your parents

[Post-Chorus]
No-no-no, no-no-no
I ain't tryna meet your parents
No-no-no, no-no-no
(Ain't tryna meet your)
(Ain't tryna meet your)
[Bridge]
I'm just tryna keep it real with you
Keep it chill it with you
I got a feelin' that you're feelin' what I'm feelin', too
Keep it real with you
Keep it chill it with you
No, no

[Chorus]
I ain't tryna meet your parents
We don't gotta take it there yet
Let's just leave it up in the air, yeah
'Cause I ain't tryna meet, no
I ain't tryna meet, I'll
Shut down every Broadway bar with you
Make out in the back of my car with you
If you give me that hoodie, I'll wear it
But I ain't tryna meet, no, I ain't tryna meet, no
I ain't tryna meet your parents

[Post-Chorus]
No-no-no, no-no-no
I ain't tryna meet your parents
No-no-no, no-no-no

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 [?]
