[Spoken]
Feel the rhythm

[Intro]
Fourteen's all about being free
And that's what I told people
What I am is free
Even though I'm in love

[Hook]
So I'll play in the woods with you
So I'll play in the woods with you
So I'll run through the river with you
So I'll run through the river with you
So I'll climb that tree with you
So I'll climb that tree with you
So I'll take that bicycle with you
And I'll wheel it through the town

[Chorus]
'Cause that's the kinda thing that people do when they are in love
'Cause they've got their own little song playin' on repeat in their heart
Some people's go (you ready)
Shooby do do, oh wop bop do do
Mine goes something like this (listen close)
'Cause I love you
(love, love, love, love)
(love, love, love, love)
(love, love, love, love)

[Verse 2]
You can drop me down, pick me up again
If you promise you'll catch me any day
You can listen to my songs anyway
'Cause I know you won't laugh (ha!)

[Verse 3]
You can wear matching clothes and
Dance along to the radio whilst
We walk back to your house along the main road
And you can drag me 'round Statesmans in my golden pump shoes

[Chorus]
'Cause that's the kinda thing that people do when they are in love
'Cause they've got their own little song playin' on repeat in their heart
Some people's go
Shooby do, oh wop bop do do
Mine goes something like this
'Cause I love you
'Cause that's the kinda thing that people do when they are in love
'Cause they've got their own little song playin' on repeat in their heart
Some people's go (yeah)
Shooby do do, oh wop bop do do
Mine goes something like this (yeah)
'Cause I love you (yeah)
(love, love, love, love)
(love, love, love, love)
(love, love, love, love)
(love, love, love, love)
(love, love, love, love)

[Outro]
Back to fourteen
All about bein' free
Tried to make myself not write this
But it had to be done
Tried to make myself not write it, but it had to be done

Charlotte Emma Aitchison (born 2 August 1992), known professionally as Charli XCX, is an English singer-songwriter known for her eclectic style. She began making music at fourteen, and her debut release was a 2008 limited-edition album aptly titled 14.

By 2010, Charli signed to Atlantic Records, and released her debut single “Stay Away” in May 2011. She released her “real” debut album, True Romance, in 2013. The record met critical acclaim but failed to attain much commercial success. Charli’s true breakthrough came with the release of hit collaborations like Iggy Azalea’s “Fancy” and Icona Pop’s “I Love It.”

In April 2014, Charli found solo success with “Boom Clap,” which was featured on the soundtrack of The Fault in Our Stars. It’s now certified triple platinum in the United States and gold in her native United Kingdom. Her sophomore album, Sucker, was a pop-punk oriented effort and enjoyed more success than her debut. “Break The Rules,” “Doing It” (featuring Rita Ora), and “Famous” all performed well on the UK singles chart.
