JENNIE “Love Hangover” Lyrics
Fight me fight me fight me
You made me so unlike me
I don’t wanna talk come behind me
Know you ain’t the one but you might be
Who sent you
Who sent you
Who sent you
Who sent you ’round again
I’m so I’m so shady
I don’t really mind when you play me
Wanna switch it up go crazy
I ain’t gonna leave till you hate me
Who sent you
Who sent you
Who sent you
Who sent you ’round
We say it’s over
But I keep fucking with you
And every time I do I wake up
with this love hangover
You got me pouring for two
I swore I’d never do it again
Until you came over
I started lying with you
And every time I do I wake up
with this love hangover ah oh
I swear I’ll never do it again
Ah shit I did it again
(call me back call me back call me back)
Oh but you know I’m gonna do it again
(call me back call me back call me back)
Yeah you know I’m gonna do it again
I had woke up in a daze
My sweat was cold
My lip was cracked
I can’t leave this bitch I had to
Single double triple back
She gon leave me
But she wants to keep me on
What’s up with that?
I ain’t even really got time for
all that shit right now
I’m a baby father
And all them jokes she told at dinner
last night ain’t had me dead
I was playing possum
And when the waiter brought the check
she said let’s head to mine I said okay awesome
One minute we’re growing apart
Next time I’m in her apartment
Watching her get naked
and not thinking with my heart
I ain’t even really got time for all that shit
Right now
But if she wanted it right now
Then I could meet you there right now
Even though ya barely even drink
We hardly even spoke
[DF/JN] But I know when I wake up
[DF/JN] that I’m still gon feel that hangover bae
We say it’s over
But I keep fucking with you
And every time I do I wake up
with this love hangover
You got me pouring for two
I swore I’d never do it again
Until you came over
I started lying with you
And every time I do I wake up
with this love hangover ah oh
I swear I’ll never do it again
Ah shit I did it again
(call me back call me back call me back)
Oh but you know I’m gonna do it again
(call me back call me back call me back)
Yeah you know I’m gonna do it again
Back back back back back
(call me back call me back call me back)
Back back back back back
Ah shit ah shit
Back back back back back
(call me back call me back call me back)
Back back back back back
Ah shit ah shit
Back back back back back back
(single double triple back)
(call me back call me back call me back)
Back back back back back
(single double triple back right now right now)
(call me back call me back call me back)
Back back back back back
(single double triple back)
Ah shit ah shit
Back back back back back
Don’t know what I’m saying at this point
JENNIE “Love Hangover” Meaning
“Love Hangover” delves into the emotional turmoil of being irresistibly drawn to something despite knowing it’s harmful, portraying the struggle of trying and failing to let go of someone who feels like both poison and a remedy.
This theme is mirrored in the playful yet darkly comedic music video, where JENNIE repeatedly meets her demise just as she and Charles Melton are about to fall in love, with exaggerated scenarios like a monster breaking through a movie screen or food choking her at a restaurant. The use of awkward 3D animation heightens the humor, contrasting with the song’s underlying melancholy. Additionally, the music video subtly hints at the song’s more provocative elements, with the clean version omitting eight bars from Dominic Fike’s rap that allude to an intimate relationship, leaving room for suggestive interpretation in his scenes. Through its blend of emotional depth and dark humor, “Love Hangover” captures the intoxicating, inescapable nature of a love that is both destructive and addictive.
