I took a pill in Ibiza… ay tuuk a pil in ibisa
To show Avicii I was cool… tu shou avichi a wuas cuul
And when I finally got sober, felt 10 years older… en wuen a fain-ly gat sabe felt ten yiers olde
But fuck it, it was something to do… ba faket i wuas somtden ru du
I’m living out in LA… aym livin au in el ei
I drive a sports car just to prove… a dshraiv a esports car yias tu pruuv
I’m a real big baller cause I made a million dollars… am a ri-el big boler cosay meid a milion dalars
And I spend it on girls and shoes… anay espende on guerls en shuus

But you don’t wanna be high like me… bo yiu don wuana bi jai laik mi
Never really knowing why like me… never rily nowuin wuay laik mi
You don’t ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone… yiu don ever wuana estep off dat roler couster an bi ol aloun
You don’t wanna ride the bus like this… yiu don wuana raid de bas laik dis
Never knowing who to trust like this… never nowuin ju tu trast laik dis
You don’t wanna be stuck up on that stage singing… yiu don wuana bi estak ap on dat esteich singuin
Stuck up on that stage singing… estakap on dat esteich singuin
All I know are sad songs, sad songs… olay nou ar sad songs sed songs
Darling, all I know are sad songs, sad songs… darlin olay nou ar sed songs sad songs

I’m just a singer who already blew his shot… aym yias a singuer ju olrredy blu jis shat
I get along with old timers…. ay guet alon wuit ool taimers
Cause my name’s a reminder of a pop song people forgot… cos ma neims a rimainder of a pap son pipol forgat
And I can’t keep a girl, no…. n’ ken kiip a guerl no
Cause as soon as the sun comes up…. cos as suun as de san coms ap
I cut em all loose and work’s my excuse…. a cat emol luus an wuorks ma ecskius
But the truth is I can’t open up…. ba de trutd is a kan oupen ap
But you don’t wanna be high like me… bo yiu don wuana bi jai laik mi
Never really knowing why like me… never rily nowuin wuay laik mi
You don’t ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone… yiu don ever wuana estep off dat roler couster an bi ol aloun
You don’t wanna ride the bus like this… yiu don wuana raid de bas laik dis
Never knowing who to trust like this… never nowuin ju tu trast laik dis
You don’t wanna be stuck up on that stage singing… yiu don wuana bi estak ap on dat esteich singuin
Stuck up on that stage singing… estakap on dat esteich singuin
All I know are sad songs, sad songs… olay nou ar sad songs sed songs
Darling, all I know are sad songs, sad songs… darlin olay nou ar sed songs sad songs

I took a plane to my home town… ay tuuk a plein tu may joom taun
I brought my pride and my guitar… a brogt ma praid  an may guirar
All my friends are all gone but there’s manicured lawns… ol may frends ar ol goon ba ders manikiur loons
And the people still think I’m a star… n’ de pipol estil tdink amma estar
I walked around downtown… ay wuok arraon dauntaun
I met some fans on Lafayette… ay met som fans on lafayiet
They said tell us how to make it cause we’re getting real impatient… dey sed telas jao ru meiket cos wui guerin ri-el impeishen
So I looked em in the eye and said… so ay lukdem in di ay en sed

you don’t wanna be high like me… yiu don wuana bi jai laik mi
Never really knowing why like me… never rily nowuin wuay laik mi
You don’t ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone… yiu don ever wuana estep off dat roler couster an bi ol aloun
You don’t wanna ride the bus like this… yiu don wuana raid de bas laik dis
Never knowing who to trust like this… never nowuin ju tu trast laik dis
You don’t wanna be stuck up on that stage singing… yiu don wuana bi estak ap on dat esteich singuin
