worst behavior
Ariana Grande Lyrics

But I kind of like the way I
Feel when I just don't give a fuck
Oh, I forgot to mention
I'll be there in five

This ain't no game, won't play witcha' (oh yeah)
This time I know I'll stay witcha'
Just promise you won't say nothin'
Don't you be actin' like that, don't you be actin' like that, babe

No phone, no pics, no postin' us
This love just ain't disposable
Just take what's yours, don't run from it
Don't you be actin' like that, don't you be actin' like that, babe

Said baby, it's just me in my nature (mm)
To be a little troublemaker
So wrong but so right

Know you really like the way I
Taste when we kiss, you reminisce
But this ain't the last time
Just stay by my side

We don't really need to talk too much
Show each other what we know
I got other ways to catch you up
Couldn't do it on the phone
So can you keep it secret?

This ain't no game, won't play witcha' (oh, boy)
This time I know I'll stay witcha'
Just promise you won't say nothin'
Don't you be actin' like that, don't you be actin' like that, babe

No phone, no pics, no postin' us
This love just ain't disposable (oh, babe)

Just take what's yours, don't run from it
Don't you be actin' like that, don't you be actin' like that, babe

In "Worst Behavior," Ariana Grande sings about her rebellious side and how it feels good to not worry about anyone else's expectations. She admits to being on her "worst behavior," and doesn't need anyone to save her. While she knows she's out of line, she enjoys the feeling of not caring. She mentions how she'll be there in five, indicating that she's already on her way to see someone. She doesn't want to talk too much, but rather show each other what they know. She has other ways to "catch you up," but can't do it over the phone. In the chorus, she asks her partner to keep their relationship a secret and not act like they're in a relationship, posting pictures or mentioning anything about it on social media.

The second verse repeats the first, but adds an extra line where Ariana admits that being a little troublemaker is in her nature. She acknowledges that it's wrong but feels right. Her partner likes the way she tastes when they kiss and reminisces about it, but Ariana makes it clear that it's not the last time they'll kiss. Like in the first verse, she emphasizes that they don't need to talk too much and asks her partner to keep their relationship a secret.

I been on my worst behavior
I have been acting recklessly and irresponsibly

But baby, I don't need no savior
I don't need anyone to rescue me from my behavior

I'm way outta line
I am acting inappropriately and not following societal norms

But I kind of like the way I Feel when I just don't give a fuck
I enjoy the feeling of being free and not caring about consequences

Oh, I forgot to mention I'll be there in five
I forgot to tell you I am on my way and will be there soon

We don't really need to talk too much Show each other what we know I got other ways to catch you up Couldn't do it on the phone So can you keep it secret? (mm)
Let's not waste time talking, I'll show you what I need to show you. I cannot do it over the phone, so can you keep what we're about to do a secret?

This ain't no game, won't play witcha' (oh yeah) This time I know I'll stay witcha' Just promise you won't say nothin' Don't you be actin' like that, don't you be actin' like that, babe
This is not a game or a casual fling, I am serious about being with you. Just promise me you won't tell anyone and act like it's no big deal.

No phone, no pics, no postin' us This love just ain't disposable Just take what's yours, don't run from it Don't you be actin' like that, don't you be actin' like that, babe
Let's keep our relationship private and not share it on social media. This love is not something we can easily walk away from. Take what you want from it, but don't run away from it and act like it doesn't matter.

Said baby, it's just me in my nature (mm) To be a little troublemaker So wrong but so right
I am naturally inclined to be rebellious, even though it's wrong, it feels right to me.

Know you really like the way I Taste when we kiss, you reminisce But this ain't the last time Just stay by my side
You enjoy our physical intimacy, but know that this won't be the last time. Just stay with me and we can continue this.

This ain't no game, won't play witcha' (oh, boy) This time I know I'll stay witcha' Just promise you won't say nothin' Don't you be actin' like that, don't you be actin' like that, babe
This relationship is not something to mess around with or take lightly. I know I want to be with you, just promise me you won't tell anyone and don't act like it's not important.

No phone, no pics, no postin' us This love just ain't disposable (oh, babe) Just take what's yours, don't run from it Don't you be actin' like that, don't you be actin' like that, babe
Let's keep our relationship between us and not share it with others. This love is not something we can easily discard or walk away from. Take what you want from it, but don't act like it doesn't matter.
