I guess maybe some little problems could arise

There are always a few

If anything happened and we couldn't be friends the way we are now

That would really be bad

Devastating

Because this is very good

And that would be good

That would be good too the idea is to combine this and that

Tryna keep it low

Keep 'em on that need to know

Tell everybody that we're just friends

But to be honest that plutonic sh*t's for TV shows

Same place we're with different folks

Case closed if they crack the code

Is it me or is you cold

Cause the feelings you ain't showin' pokin' out your clothes

Go put a sweater on or get a room

Forbidden fruit swim in your juice

Lot of ways I can get to you

But my train of thought is tryna get you out your ch-ch-choo

Still we keep it low

Keep 'em on that need to know

Cause somebody tell somebody

And somebody then sorry but somebody gon' need to go

I'm not tryna pressure you

Just can't stop thinkin' 'bout you

You ain't even really gotta be my boyfriend

I just wanna know your name

And maybe some time

We can hook up

We can hang out we can just chill

Tryna keep it low

Keep 'em on that need to know

Tell everybody that we're just cool

As far as me and you we got a simple code

Spendin' nights well that's optional

No telephones in the afternoon

I know that overthinkin' only leads to subtweetin'

Every time your a** in the mood

Sharin' thoughts when we share a room

Though we barely talk when we share a room

In the dark still see your curves

Body like what swear to God you're a miracle

Still we keep it low

Keep 'em on that need to know

Cause somebody tell somebody

And somebody then sorry but somebody gon' need to go

I'm not tryna pressure you

Just can't stop thinkin' 'bout you

You ain't even really gotta be my boyfriend

I just wanna know your name

And maybe some time

We can hook up

We can hang out we can just chill

I mean let's say what if we did

What if

Is that like the end of the world or something

Certainly not

Why shouldn't we be able to do that

Once in a while if we want to

I know

I mean really what is the big deal

We go in there we're in there for a while

It's not complicated

It's almost stupid if we didn't

It's moronic

Absurd

I'm not tryna pressure you

Just can't stop thinkin' 'bout you

You ain't even really gotta be my boyfriend

I just wanna know your name

And maybe some time

We can hook up

We can hang out we can just chill
