Lyrics
I was in a sheer dress the day that we met
We were both in a rush, we talked for a sec
You're friendin' me up so we could connect
And what are the odds? You sent me a text
And now the next thing I know, I'm like
Manifest that you're oversized
I digress, got me scrollin' like
Out of breath, got me goin' like

Ooh (ah)
Who's the cute boy with the white jacket
And the thick accent? Like
Ooh (ah)
Maybe it's all in my head
But I bet we'd have really good bed chem

How you pick me up, pull 'em down, turn me 'round, oh, it just makes sense
How you talk so sweet when you're doin' bad things
That's bed (bed) chem (chem)
How you're lookin' at me, yeah, I know what that means and I'm obsessed
Are you free next week? I bet we'd have really good-

Come right on me, I mean, camaraderie
Said you're not in my time zone but you wanna be
Where art thou? Why not upon-eth me?
See it in my mind, let's fulfill the prophecy

Ooh (ah)
Who's the cute guy with the wide, blue eyes
And the big bad mm? Like
Ooh (ah)
I know it sound a bit redundant
But I bet we'd have really good bed chem

How you pick me up, pull 'em down, turn me 'round, oh, it just makes sense (just makes sense)
How you talk so sweet when you're doin' bad things
That's bed (bed) chem (oh, that's bed chem)
How you're lookin' at me, yeah, I know what that means and I'm obsessed (so obsessed)
Are you free next week? I bet we'd have really good (bed chem)

And I bet we'd both arrive at the same time (bed chem)
And I bet the thermostat's set at six-nine (bed chem)
And I bet it's even better than in my head (my, ooh)

How you pick me up, pull 'em down, turn me 'round, oh, it just makes sense (oh, it just makes sense)
How you talk so sweet when you're doin' bad things
That's bed chem (oh, that's bed chem)
How you're lookin' at me, yeah, I know what that means and I'm obsessed (so obsessed)
Are you free next week? (Are you free next week?) I bet we'd have really good-

Ha (make me go), ha
And I know
Ha (make me go), ha
And I know
Ha (make me go), ha
And I know
Ha (make me go), ha
Ooh, oh, baby
(A little fade out?)
