Drama Queen Lyrics

[Verse 1]
They tell us love done the right way is drainin'
Kissin' and arguin' and cryin' when it's rainin'
In that case, you and I got it made
Always on the ropes, we need a standin' ovation

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm watchin' the same show
I know the endin' and I don't get it
Always on my toes
It's not romantic, it's problematic

[Chorus]
You're not in love with me anymore, oh
You're just in love with the drama, yeah
You're not in love with me anymore, oh
You're just in love with the drama
I need a knight in shining armor
Not a drama queen, no
You're not in love (In love) with me anymore, oh
You're just in love with the drama, drama

[Verse 2]
I'm not evеn yours anymore
But I deservе an award for gettin' over you, call the Academy
You come around, you go away
Is this a game of how long you can stay mad at me?
Oh, here we go

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm watchin' the same show
I know the endin' and I don't get it (Get it, oh)
Always on my toes
It's not romantic, it's just dramatic

[Chorus]
You're not in love with me anymore, oh
You're just in love with the drama, yeah
You're not in love (Oh, no) with me anymore, oh
You're just in love with the drama
I need a knight in shining armor
Not a drama queen, no
You're not in love (In love) with me anymore, oh
You're just in love with the drama, drama

[Bridge]
Da-da-da-dum-dum
In love, in love, in love with the drama

[Breakdown]
I need a knight in shining armor
Not a drama queen
I need a knight in shining armor
You're a drama queen

[Chorus]
You're not in love with me anymore, oh
You're just in love with the drama, yeah
You're not in love (Oh, no) with me anymore, oh
You're just in love with the drama
I need a knight in shining armor
Not a drama queen, no
You're not in love (In love) with me anymore, oh
You're just in love with the drama, drama

What did Alessia Cara say about "Drama Queen"?

From Cara’s Album Unboxing video about the track:
“…It’s a really humorous song…about the idea that love can sometimes be so dramatic and frustrating and just over the top…to me, it is the wrong kinda love. The right kinda love for me…not overly dramatic or passionate, ‘cos that’s where messiness can come into play.”
