The narrative takes an intriguing turn with a reference to a “drawing by a Viennese artist,” a line that invites listeners to ponder the connection between intimate moments and broader artistic motifs. A discovered postcard revealing a boyfriend in Thailand introduces a layer of relational complexity and tension. The final verse shifts perspective abruptly to a voicemail, a direct address that reframes the entire story and introduces questions of fidelity and distance. This structure transforms the lyrics from a simple story into a multi-angled drama.

Serious Lyrics by FILLY
(Feat. The Teenagers)

So last night, I was sitting in this girl’s basement
Uber *** on ketamine
Smoking a joint I found in the kitchen drawer
She had kinda strict parents
But they were gone on vacation so
We had the whole house to ourselves

You and I got a good thing going
I’ll take this to the grave, we can worry in the morning
Push, refrain, let me know you really want it
Wake me *** till I

I’m like, are you serious?
Tell me why you feel like this
I’m like, are you serious?
Tell me why you feel like this

Her bush was peeking through her ***
And the tattoo on her leg reminded me of this drawing by a Viennese artist.
I noticed a postcard on the table and when I looked a little closer, I realized she had a boyfriend taking a gap year in Thailand

I’m like, are you serious?
Tell me why you feel like this
I’m like, are you serious?
Tell me why you feel like this
Gotta know, just gotta know
Tell me why you feel like this

You and I got a good thing going
I’ll take you to the grave, we can worry in the morning
Push, refrain, let me know you really want it
Wake me *** till I

I’m like, are you serious?
Tell me why you feel like this
Hey, what’s up?
I haven’t heard from you in a while
Everything alright?
By the way, who is this girl you posted?
And why is she wearing my t-shirt?
Anyways, Thailand is *** gorgeous
Just like you
Call me
