Lyrics by:Mike Posner/Adam Friedman
Composed by:Mike Posner/Jesse Blum/Adam Friedman
At two o'clock in Hollywood which means
I gotta leave here by one
I should call an Uber at 12 50
And then after that I gotta meet Bear at
Joe's Falafel for dinner at 8 PM
Correct
S**t I need a day off
Once in a while once in a while once in a while
Once in a while once in a while
I think that'd be good for me honestly if
I just chilled every
Once in a while once in a while once in a while
Gonna get ready now though huh
Once in a while
Yo this haircut is crazy oh my God
Bald head smooth not too shabby
Time for cologne so Jessie know I'm classy
I keep the bottle next to the heat on the dresser
That was too much she'll think
I'm trying to impress her
I take another shower to wash off the smell
Twenty minutes late now need excuse to tell
I'll just blame it on the traffic
Better yet a accident
Car went in a backspin it was tragic
On the 405 that's it I call a Uber X
Here comes a man named Dafar in a Camry
Hurry up I need the Grammy before I'm an antique
I'm too antsy I get to the studio
There's a white dude in a hoodie named Andy
Hey my name's Andy I'll be your engineer cool
Jessie's not here alright
Can I offer you a drink
Yeah I'll take a cold beer
We only have water and juice
That's so LA makes sense
I kill the time looking at my DMs I check 'em
Once in a while once in a while once in a while
She's not bad
Yeah I check 'em every
Once in a while once in a while once in a while
And Jessie walks in the room like ah
Bodyguard with her like
Don't get too close motherf**ker
And I gotta say that she smelled like ah
I'm dumbfound looking like mmh good God
And suddenly I'm so not prepared
I'm doing my best just not to stare
I'm wonderin' how I got in here
Must be the Lord's blessings
The first thing she says is
Christ Mike dear
What have you done with all your hair
You're looking like a white monk it's weird
Well you know I just shaved it all off
It's just something that I do every
Once in a while once in a while once in a while
Once in a while once in a while once in a while
Once in a while once in a while once in a while
Once in a while
Once in a while once in a while yeah
Now I'm super embarrassed in all fairness
She wasn't tryna be mean she was just surprised
Or maybe she was and now I'm just justifying
The behavior because I love her but I'd touch
As much as I love her eyes that must be why
I tell her you look very pretty today
Nice one dummy uh thanks very original
I am sensing something subliminal
This guy is weird
I think she doesn't really like me
I don't like him
I think she's thinking that I'm lame as f**k
He's lame as f**k
Yeah she's thinking that
I'm lame as f**k yup
So I'ma sing her a song that I already wrote
And pretend I just made it up
Hey uh hey Jessie yeah
What if we tried something like
Don't do me dirty show me some mercy
Darling please lay down your weaponry
That's cool
How did I end up somewhere between oh hah
Lover and a memory
'Cause I don't believe in a halfway heart
That's cool
Ba buh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh you know
Mm a bee dah dah yeah something like that
That's d**e it'll sound I like it
It'll sound better in your voice
Too when you sing it
