[Verse 1]
She listens to Yellowcard
Just to fit in with her friends
Cause they all know all the words
So she sings along just to click with them and
She tries to straighten her naturally curly hair
But it don't work, oh no, it don't
It just looks like a pile of shite on top of her head

[Chorus]
Well, yes, yes, yes I'm banging on about her again
(and again and again and again)
Cause I can't get those things she's been sayin' off my brain
And this time I ain't mentionin' no names
(no names, no names, no names)
Cause that would make it too damn obvious (yeah)

[Verse 2]
She helps out all the drunks who don't really want to know
Just so she looks like some kind of Good Samaritan and
She gets her friends to break up her enemies' girlfriends and boyfriends
And that kind of thing that they've got going on

[Chorus]
Well, yes, yes, yes I'm banging on about her again
(and again and again and again)
Cause I can't get those things she's been sayin' off my brain
And this time I ain't mentionin' no names
(no names, no names, no names)
Cause that would make it too damn obvious (yeah)

[Bridge]
(1, 2, 3, ow)
Well, she used to have a lot of love
But I reckon she fucked it up and
I reckon she was one of 'em over-possessive types of girl
Comes up to her man, calls out 'Sam' and she turns all catty
Hisses and scratches them away

[Chorus]
Oh, yes, yes, yes I'm banging on about her again
(and again and again and again)
Cause I can't get those things she's been sayin' off my brain
And this time I ain't mentionin' no names
(no names, no names, no names)
Cause that would make it too damn obvious (yeah)

[Chorus]
Well, yes, yes, yes I'm banging on about her again
(and again and again and again)
Cause I can't get those things she's been sayin' off my brain
And this time I ain't mentionin' no names
(no names, no names, no names)
Cause that would make it too damn obvious (yeah)

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.
