[Verse 1]
You don't have to tell your mom about me
Only if you want
You've been dreading it before you met me
Let's just see where it goes

[Chorus]
I don't know her
But she'll love you
She'll hate me
But I'm patient
And I'm hopeful
When she calms down
She'll come around
With your teeth grit
You're nervous
And I'm treading
In the deep end
But I'm patient
And you're worth it
You're worth it
You don't have to tell your mom about me

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, you don't have to
You don't have to
You don't have to
[Verse 2]
You don't have to tell your mom about me
But I think that'd be a shame
You'd have someone there to make it easier and she
Would have someone to blame

[Chorus]
I don't know her
But she'll love you
She'll hate me
But I'm patient
And I'm hopeful
When she calms down
She'll come around
With your teeth grit
You're nervous
And I'm treading
In the deep end
But I'm patient
And you're worth it
You're worth it
You don't have to tell your mom about me

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, you don't have to
You don't have to
You don't have to
[Bridge]
Don't let me meet her
Don't let me meet her
I'm a horrible liar
She'll know how I've seen you
Don't let me meet her
Don't let me meet her
I'm a horrible liar
She'll know how I've seen you

[Outro]
You don't have to tell your mom about me
