Umm bro don’t act like us being together is a big deal cause it isn’t
throws a punch, hitting the lockers Don't act like I don't see the way you look at me, man. You think I don't notice your little crushes?
leans in closer, smirking Well, ain't that just too bad, 'cause I'm about to blow your little crush out of the water.
