I should write a song about you 
And all the shit that you do
You don't even know what's up 
But soon it all comes crashing down on you
Since we're on the subject 
Tell me why your name is in the dictionary when I look up idiot 
Check yourself it's very necessary 

Stop listen what's that sound 
Supersonic spinning 'round 
You don't mind the fall until your face hits the ground 
Crash and burn girl 
Going down down down down down 
Crash and burn girl 
You don't mind the fall until your face hits the ground 

You should have a sticker on you 
Saying warning keep out
You're the kinda girl that'll mess you up for
Life that's smashing up his car 
Crying on his doorstep, waiting in the rain all night 
And did you tell him you're the kind that never show your ugly side 
Until you sticking like glue 

Stop listen what's that sound 
Supersonic spinning 'round 
You don't mind the fall until your face hits the ground 
Crash and burn girl 
Going down down down down down 
Crash and burn girl 
You don't mind the fall until your face hits the ground 

It's just that every time you mess it up like that I see myself in you 
I've been there too
And there's so many times I stand beside and see what you're going through 
Where you headed too

Stand by! 

Crash and burn girl 
Going down down down down down 
Crash and burn girl 
You don't mind the fall until your face hits the ground 
Crash and burn girl 
You keep on banging you head girl your shirt's all red 
Crash and burn girl 
You don't mind the fall until your face hits the ground

Crash and burn girl 
You keep on banging you head girl your shirt's all red 
Crash and burn girl 
You don't mind the fall until your face hits the ground

Going down, going down, going down, oh no
You're going down, going down
You'll crash and burn girl
