GAYLE – ​abcdefu : Lyrics, Music Video and Download

Singer: GAYLE Genre: Pop Pop Rock Pop Punk Album: A Study of the Human Experience Volume One Labels: Atlantic Records Labels: Arthouse Records

According to Genius

A defiant take on the aftermath of a breakup, “abcdefu” stands as an empowering female anthem. The track is the fifth single of GAYLE’s music career and the debut release with her “dream” label, Atlantic Records.

Throughout the song, GAYLE sings about a particular breakup that she went through and the real feelings it evoked in her. Initially, GAYLE wanted to be the bigger person and be considerate towards her ex, but her unfiltered feelings inevitably escape her. She literally and figuratively spells them out.

With Pete Nappi at the helm of production, the composition of “abcdefu” is driven by an electric guitar, which plays a palm-muted riff throughout the verses. It provides a subdued counterpart to the chorus, where power chords accentuate the main lyrical motif of the song. Though predominantly pop, the production’s guitar and drum-powered backing veers the song into pop-rock territory.

[Intro]
Fu*k you and your mom and your sister and your job
And your broke-ass car and that shit you call art
Fu*k you and your friends that I’ll never see again
Everybody but your dog, you can all fu*k off

[Verse 1]
I swear I meant to mean the best when it ended
Even tried to bite my tongue when you start shit
Now you’re textin’ all my friends asking questions
They never even liked you in the first place
Dated a girl that I hate for the attention
She only made it two days, what a connection
It’s like you’d do anythin’ for my affection
You’re goin’ all about it in the worst ways
