“Screensaver” lyrics
I'm your screensaver, baby, can't shut me off
You were working on your laptop at the coffee place
Now you're typing out my name in a spreadsheet space
Told your boss you're feeling sick but you look fine to me
You just can't stop picturing the way I look at three
Bet you left the stove on, bet you missed your train
Bet you read my texts again and read 'em back again
Oh, you made a playlist, cute, I saw the title
It's got seven hours and a song called "Idle"
Honey, I don't mind, it's kinda nice to know
I'm the little picture when your battery's low
Is it hot in here, or is that me?
Is it hot in here, or is that me?
(It's me)
Are you working, or just thinking of me?
(It's me)
I'm your screensaver, baby
Every time you close your eyes
I pop right up, I pop right up
I pop right up, I pop right up
I'm your screensaver, baby, can't shut me off
Click, click, still here
(Still here)
Click, click, still here
Click, click, still here
(Still here)
Click, click, still here
Click, click, still here
(Still here)
Click, click, still here
Heard you took a cold shower, did it help at all
Heard you tried a dating app and then you gave me a call
You say it's just a phase, that's cute, it's been a year
Honey, I'm the background and I'm always here
You could change the password, you could change the town
You could buy a brand new phone and I'll still be around
Every time you're bored, every time you pause
I'm the one you see, I'm the one because
Don't blame me, baby, I'm just being me
You're the one who never puts me down to sleep
Is it hot in here, or is that me?
Is it hot in here, or is that me?
(It's me)
Are you working, or just thinking of me?
(It's me)
Are you working, or just thinking of me?
(It's me)
I'm your screensaver, baby
Every time you close your eyes
I pop right up, I pop right up
I pop right up, I pop right up
I'm your screensaver, baby, can't shut me off
Ooh, you tried to log out
Ooh, you tried to turn off
Ooh, you tried to shut down
But you love me too much
Ooh, you tried to move on
Nah, you love me too much
I'm your screensaver, baby
Every time you close your eyes
I pop right up, I pop right up
I pop right up, I pop right up
I'm your screensaver, baby, can't shut me off
Click, click, still here
(Still here)
Click, click, still here
Click, click, still here
(Still here)
Click, click, still here
