Lyrics

Our love was like a Hollywood caper
It felt so right and it sure looked good on paper
I always knew it wouldn't last
But while it did it was such a blast

You had your style I had my ways
Somehow we were always out of phase
On the web page we're a clickbait picture
Shotgun suicide and we keep pulling the trigger

It sure looked good it looked so good on paper
I guess we always knew that we were both fakers
It sure looked good it looked so good on paper
I guess we always knew that we were both fakers

We're famous in our own minds don't need a red carpet
Like a red Ferrari that gets looks where you park it
We look so good we make a fine pair
But looks are deceiving ''cause we're going nowhere

Bonnie and Clyde Samson and Delillah
Gasoline and matches we're are own pariah
Yeah Gasoline and Vodka next to a candlelight
Ready to burn at the first hint of a slight

It sure looked good it looked so good on paper
I guess we always knew that we were both fakers
It sure looked good it looked so good on paper
I guess we always knew that we were both fakers

If this song doesn't make you want to bob your head and shake your hips you might want to check your pulse!
