[Intro]

I feel so high school every time I look at you

I wanna find you in a crowd just to hide from you

[Chorus]

And in a blink of a crinklin' eye

I'm sinkin', our fingers entwined

Cheeks pink in the twinklin' lights

Tell me 'bout the first time you saw me

I'll drink what you think and I'm high

From smokin' your jokes all damn night

The brink of a wrinkle in time

Bittersweet sixteen suddenly

[Post-Chorus]

I'm watchin' American Pie with you on a Saturday night

Your friends are around, so be quiet

I'm tryin' to stifle my sighs

'Cause I feel so high school every time I look at you

But look at you

[Interlude]

Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah

[Verse 1]

Are you gonna marry, kiss, or kill me? (Kill me)

It's just a game, but really (Really)

I'm bettin' on all three (All three) for us two

Get my car door, isn't that sweet? (That sweet)

Then pull me to thе back seat (The back seat)

No onе's ever had me (Had me), not like you

See Taylor Swift Live

[Refrain]

Truth, dare, spin bottles

You know how to ball, I know Aristotle

Brand new, full throttle

Touch me while your bros play Grand Theft Auto

It's true, swear, scout's honor

You knew what you wanted and, boy, you got her

Brand new, full throttle

You already know, babe

[Verse 2]

I feel like laughin' in the middle of practice

Do that impression you did of your dad again

I'm hearing voices like a madman

[Chorus]

And in a blink of a crinklin' eye

I'm sinkin', our fingers entwined

Cheeks pink in the twinklin' lights

Tell me 'bout the first time you saw me

I'll drink what you think, and I'm high

From smokin' your jokes all damn night

The brink of a wrinkle in time

Bittersweet sixteen suddenly

[Post-Chorus]

I'm watchin' American Pie with you on a Saturday night

Your friends are around, so be quiet

I'm tryin' to stifle my sighs

'Cause I feel so high school (Feel so high school) every time I look at you

But look at you

[Refrain]

Truth, dare, spin bottles

You know how to ball, I know Aristotle

Brand new, full throttle

Touch me while your bros play Grand Theft Auto

It's true, swear, scout's honor (Yeah)

You knew what you wanted and, boy, you got her

Brand new, full throttle (Yeah)

You already know, babe

You already know, babe
