[Intro]
[Spoken / playful]
Alright...
I came here to behave.
[Beat drops]
...That was the plan anyway.
[Verse ]
[Playful male rap]
I came here to have one drink,
One little drink, that's all I said,
Then you walked in with that look on your face,
Now I've got trouble in my head.
You said, "Relax, don't make a scene,"
I said, "Me? I'm always clean."
Then you moved just a little closer,
Now I'm forgetting what I mean.
I was gonna take it easy,
I was gonna keep it cool,
Then you smiled across the room like,
"Let's see what you gonna do."
Well, I don't know what you're playing,
But you're playing it too well,
I've got one foot out the door
And the other saying, "Go to hell."
[Pre-Chorus]
[Female response / male lead]
I said, "Behave yourself."
You said, "I am."
I said, "That's not behaving."
You said, "Who says I am?"
Now we're laughing,
Getting closer,
Trying not to make it obvious...
Too late.
[Chorus]
[Big, catchy, bouncy]
Behave yourself!
I said, "You first!"
Behave yourself!
You know you're making it worse.
I came here for one drink,
Now I'm three drinks deep,
You keep looking at me like that,
How am I supposed to sleep?
Behave yourself!
Don't put that smile on me.
Behave yourself!
You know exactly what I mean.
We said we'd keep it sensible,
But sensible went somewhere else...
Behave yourself!
[Post-Chorus]
[Chopped vocals]
Behave, behave,
Behave yourself!
Nah, you first.
No, you first.
Alright then...
[Verse]
[Rap / more rhythmic]
Now we're dancing like nobody's watching,
Even though everybody is,
You said, "You're getting confident."
I said, "Blame it on the fizz."
You stole my drink,
I stole your seat,
You said, "That's mine."
I said, "Now it's me."
You got that little laugh
When you know you've won,
And I can already tell
This night's nowhere near done.
I said, "We should probably leave."
You said, "Probably."
I said, "That's probably wise."
You said, "Definitely."
Then you looked at me...
And there went that plan.
[Pre-Chorus][Build]
I said, "Behave yourself."
You said, "I am."
I said, "You're trouble."
You said, "That's the plan."
Now we're laughing,
Getting closer,
Neither one of us is fooling anyone...
Not even slightly.
[Chorus][Full beat]
Behave yourself!
I said, "You first!"
Behave yourself!
You know you're making it worse.
I came here for one drink,
Now I'm three drinks deep,
You keep looking at me like that,
How am I supposed to sleep?
Behave yourself!
Don't put that smile on me.
Behave yourself!
You know exactly what I mean.
We said we'd keep it sensible,
But sensible went somewhere else...
Behave yourself!
[Bridge]
[Beat strips back / spoken]
Wait, wait, wait...
What happened to behaving?
You said we'd be good.
I am being good?
That's your version of good?
...Pretty much.
[Beat returns]
Oh, we're in trouble now.
[Final Chorus]
[Huge / euphoric / everyone bouncing]
Behave yourself!
I said, "You first!"
Behave yourself!
You know you're making it worse.
One more minute, One more song, One more reason..
To Behave yourself.
