“That’s So True” is Gracie Abrams‘ biggest hit yet, so far peaking at No. 6 on the Billboard Hot 100 and becoming the singer/songwriter’s first-ever top 10 entry on the chart, as well as spending weeks atop the U.K.’s Official Singles Chart.
And a big part of the song’s success — beyond high-profile performances on Saturday Night Live and her headlining The Secret of Us Tour — is its mile-a-minute lyrics, requiring repeat listens to decipher who she’s singing to (and about) and why she needs to go warn another woman.
Below, find the full lyrics of “That’s So True,” co-written by Abrams with her best friend and collaborator Audrey Hobert.
I could go and read your mind
Think about your dumb face all the time
Living in your glass house, I’m outside, uh
Looking into big blue eyes
Did it just to hurt me, make me cry
Smiling through it all, yeah, that’s my life
You’re an idiot, now I’m sure
Now I’m positive, I should go and warn her
Ooh, bet you’re thinking, “She’s so cool”
Kicking back on your couch, making eyes from across the room
Wait, I think I’ve been there too
What’d she do to get you off? (Uh-huh)
Taking down her hair like, oh, my God
Taking off your shirt, I did that once
Or twice, uh
No, I know, I know I’ll fuck off (uh-huh)
But I think I like her, she’s so fun
Wait, I think I hate her, I’m not that evolved
I’m sorry she’s missing it, sad, sad boy
Not my business, but I had to warn ya
Ooh, bet you’re thinking, “She’s so cool”
Kicking back on your couch, making eyes from across the room
Wait, I think I’ve been there too
Ooh, you’ve got me thinking, “She’s so cool”
But I know what I know and you’re just another dude
Ooh, that’s so true
Made it out alive, but I think I lost it
Said that I was fine, said it from the coffin
Remember how I died when you started walking?
That’s my life, that’s my life
I’ll put up a fight, taking out my earrings
Don’t you know the vibe? Don’t you know the feeling?
You should spend the night, catch me on your ceiling
That’s your prize, that’s your prize
Well
Mm, bet you’re thinking, “She’s so cool”
Kicking back on your couch, making eyes from across the room
Wait, I think I’ve been there too
Ooh, you’ve got me thinking, “She’s so cool”
But I know what I know and you’re just another dude
Ooh, that’s so true, ooh, oh
