Machine Gun Kelly has been pivoting more and more toward a prominently pop-punk sound as of late, and nothing made this more evident than when the sometimes-rapper dropped the toxic love anthem, “Why Are You Here,” in December. In a time when music has become less and less restricted by the confines of specific genres, artists like MGK have been known to take different avenues in some of their work, and “Why Are You Here” exemplifies this to the extreme.

MGK dropped the visuals for “Why Are You Here” on Wednesday, and instead of bringing the visceral tale illustrated in the lyrics to life, he opted for a simpler approach. The video sees the artist in a pool of multi-coloured neon lights, rocking out on his guitar while bandages keep his eyes from bleeding out. MGK and two ladies surround a fridge overflowing with a variety of fruit in some of the most memorable shots of the video. Taking notes from past artists by using a suggestive fruit theme—the most recent that comes to mind would be Doja Cat’s video for her Tyga-featured track, “Juicy”—MGK even has his video vixens use a banana and a papaya to evoke sexual innuendos.

MGK recently announced that he’ll be releasing a whole album of pop-punk bangers with the help of his good friend, Blink-182’s Travis Barker. The project is titled Tickets To My Downfall and will drop sometime this year.

Lyrics

[Intro]
We can never be friends

[Chorus]
I hate that I saw you again last night
You were with somebody and so was I
Met you in the bathroom at 12:05
And I fucked you again, we can never be friends, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 1]
I’m not myself
I’m not myself when you’re around, no
Can’t be helped
We are insane, that’s just the way it goes

[Pre-Chorus]
I’m a demon in the night, she’s an angel with the white
Told me, “Keep on all the lights, I’ma show you what you like”
Help you put back on your clothes, make sure nothing’s on your nose
Ain’t even tell my closest homies, nobody knows

[Chorus]
I hate that I saw you again last night
You were with somebody and so was I
Met you in the bathroom at 12:05
And I fucked you again, we can never be friends, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 2]
I couldn’t cry (Couldn’t cry)
I need to smoke, I’m feelin’ sick inside (Sick inside)
From seein’ you next to a friend of mine
We didn’t speak, but I read your mind
Both tellin’ lies, our alibis didn’t work this time (Didn’t work this time

[Pre-Chorus]
I’m a demon in the night, she’s an angel with the white
Told her, “Keep on all the lights, you can show me what you like”
Help me put back on my clothes, make sure nothing’s on my nose
Can’t even tell my closest homies, nobody knows

[Chorus]
I hate that I saw you again last night
You were with somebody and so was I
Met you in the bathroom at 12:05
And I fucked you again, we can never be friends, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Post-Chorus]
We can never be friends, yeah, yeah, yeah
We can never be friends, yeah, yeah, yeah
We can never be friends, we can never be friends, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Bridge]
Yeah, I know that I said I was at home
Okay, yeah, you caught me (Caught me)
I thought that you said you were all alone
Look at you lying

[Chorus]
I hate that I saw you again last night (I hate that I saw you again)
You were with somebody and so was I
Met you in the bathroom at 12:05
And I fucked you again (And I), we can never be friends, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Outro]
Oh, we can never be friends, yeah, yeah, yeah (Yeah)
We can never be friends, yeah, yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah)
We can never be friends, we can never be friends, yeah, yeah, yeah
