Embarrassed (And I Love It)

Verse 1

Summer heat, walking down the block,

Copper-orange hair glowing in the sunlight,

Half-shaved head, headphones turned up loud,

Trying not to think, trying not to stand out.

Then a moving truck pulled into the drive,

Big white house at the end of mine,

And out stepped Ryan with a confident grin,

Like trouble had officially moved in.

Rich kid, nice clothes, perfect hair,

Acting like he didn't have a care,

Then he caught me staring for a second too long,

Smirked and somehow knew what was going on.

Pre-Chorus

And I don't know why,

But every time he smiles,

I suddenly forget

How to act normal.

Chorus

Why is he like this?

Why's he gotta tease?

Why's he always finding ways

To embarrass me?

One little smirk, one little joke,

And my whole face starts turning rose,

I try to play it cool, but honestly—

Ryan keeps embarrassing me.

Verse 2

At the store with my best friend Emma,

Looking for snacks on a Friday, whatever,

Then Ryan appeared out of nowhere again,

Like he had some superpower or something.

I reached for a bag on the highest shelf,

Couldn't quite grab it by myself,

Before I knew it he reached right over me,

Grabbed it and said, "Need rescuing?"

Emma started laughing so hard,

I wanted to disappear into the parking lot,

And Ryan just stood there smiling away,

Like he'd won some game that day.

Pre-Chorus

Why's my heart racing?

Why's he so annoying?

Why does he somehow

Make me smile anyway?

Chorus

Why is he like this?

Why's he gotta tease?

Why's he always finding ways

To embarrass me?

One little smirk, one little joke,

And my whole face starts turning rose,

I try to play it cool, but honestly—

Ryan keeps embarrassing me.

Bridge

Then Emma did the worst thing ever,

Walked right up to him like she'd known him forever.

She said, "My friend thinks you're cute."

I nearly dropped my drink and my food.

"EMMA!" I yelled across the lot,

Ryan laughed because apparently this was funny,

And when I finally looked his way,

He was still grinning at me.

A week later I tripped over my own shoes,

Right in front of him—yeah, great news,

He caught my arm before I fell,

And said, "You know, you're really good at that."

Final Chorus

Why is he like this?

Why's he gotta tease?

Why's he always finding ways

To embarrass me?

Every little joke, every little glance,

Every awkward little circumstance,

I swear he's impossible, honestly—

Ryan keeps embarrassing me.

But maybe that's why

I smile when he's around,

'Cause every embarrassing moment

Turns into my favorite memory now.

Outro

Half-shaved head, copper-orange hair,

Trying to pretend I don't care,

But everybody knows by now,

Ryan's got me blushing somehow. 🎵💕
