Quotes
Being fully covered up in a dress that people deemed ‘childlike’ was considered inappropriate. It just shows how we really normalize pedophilia in our culture and also it’s just this rhetoric that we’re fed as girls since we’re so little, which is like, ‘Don’t wear that, because then a man is going to sexualize your body, and it’s your fault.’ It’s so weird.

If we start dressing in a way that’s driven by fear of how someone else might interpret it, I think we’re losing the plot. I’m very protective of younger women and girls, and I don’t ever want them to be fed that rhetoric.

Song lyrics
All songs written by Olivia Rodrigo and Dan Nigro, except as noted.
High School Musical: The Musical: The Series: The Soundtrack (2020)
All I want is love that lasts.Is all I want too much to ask?Is it something wrong with me?All I want is a good guy,Are my expectations far too high?Try my best, but what can I say?All I have is myself at the end of the day.But shouldn't that be enough for me?
"All I Want", written by Olivia Rodrigo
Sour (2021)
And I'm so tired that I mightQuit my job, start a new life.And they'd all be so disappointed,'Cause who am I if not exploited?And I'm so sick of seventeen,Where's my fucking teenage dream?If someone tells me one more time"Enjoy your youth," I'm gonna cry.
"Brutal"
You betrayed me,And I know that you'll never feel sorryFor the way I hurt, yeah.You talked to her when we were together.Loved you at your worst, but that didn't matter.It took you two weeks to go off and date her,Guess you didn't cheat, but you're still a traitor.
"Traitor"
And I know we weren't perfect, but I've never felt this way for no one.And I just can't imagine how you could be so okay now that I'm gone.Guess you didn't mean what you wrote in that song about me.'Cause you said forever, now I drive alone past your street.
"Drivers License"
And maybe in some masochistic wayI kind of find it all exciting.Like, which lover will I get today?Will you walk me to the door or send me home crying?<p>It's one step forward and three steps back.I'm the love of your life until I make you mad.It's always one step forward and three steps back.Do you love me, want me, hate me?Boy, I don't understand.
"1 Step Forward, 3 Steps Back", written by Olivia Rodrigo, Taylor Swift, Jack Antonoff
So when you gonna tell her that we did that, too?She thinks it's special, but it's all reused.That was our place, I found it first.I made the jokes you tell to her when she's with you.Do you get déjà vu when she’s with you?
"Deja Vu", written by Olivia Rodrigo, Taylor Swift, Jack Antonoff, Annie Clark
Well, good for youYou look happy and healthy, not meIf you ever cared to ask.Good for you,You're doin' great out there without me, baby.God, I wish that I could do that.I've lost my mind, I've spent the nightCryin' on the floor of my bathroom.But you're so unaffected, I really don't get it.But I guess good for you.
"Good 4 U", written by Olivia Rodrigo, Dan Nigro, Hayley Williams, Josh Farro
The things I didJust so I could call you mine.The things you did,Well, I hope I was your favorite crime.
"Favorite Crime"
Guts (2023)
Forgive and I forget,I know my age and I act like it.Got what you can't resist,I'm a perfect all-American bitch.
"All-American Bitch"
Yes, I know that he's my ex,But can't two people reconnect?I only see him as a friend,The biggest lie I ever said.Oh, yes, I know that he's my ex,But can't two people reconnect?I only see him as a friend;I just tripped and fell into his bed.
"Bad Idea Right?"
'Cause I've made some real big mistakes,But you make the worst one look fine.I should've known it was strange,You only come out at night.I used to think I was smart,But you made me look so naive.The way you sold me for parts,As you sunk your teeth into me, ohBloodsucker, fame fucker,Bleedin' me dry like a goddamn vampire.
"Vampire"
Ooh, I care, I care, I care,Like perfume that you wear, I linger all the time.Watching, hidden in plain sight.And ooh, I try, I try, I try,But it takes over my life, I see you everywhere.The sweetest torture one could bear.
"Lacy"
I broke a glass, I tripped and fell,I told secrets I shouldn't tell.I stumbled over all my words,I made it weird, I made it worse.Each time I step outside, it's social suicide.It's social suicide, wanna curl up and die.It's social suicide.
"Ballad of a Homeschooled Girl"
Well, sometimes I feel like I don't wanna be where I am,Gettin' drunk at a club with my fair-weather friends.Push away all the people who know me the best,But it's me who's been makin' the bed.I'm so tired of bein' the girl that I am.Every good thing has turned into somethin' I dread,And I'm playin' the victim so well in my head.But it's me who's been makin' the bed.
"Making the Bed"
And now you got me thinkin'Two plus two equals fiveAnd I'm the love of your life.'Cause if rain don't pour and sun don't shine,Then changing you is possible.No, love is never logical.
"Logical", written by Olivia Rodrigo, Dan Nigro, and [w:Julia Michaels|]]
I wanna get him back.I wanna make him really jealous, wanna make him feel bad.Oh, I wanna get him back.'Cause then again, I really miss him, and it makes me real sadOh, I want sweet revenge, and I want him again.I want to get him back, back, back.
"Get Him Back!"
And now it don't mean a thing.God, love's fuckin' embarrassing.Just watch as I crucify myselfFor some weird second stringLoser who's not worth mentioning.My God, love's embarrassing as hell.
"Love Is Embarrassing"
And I try to be tough, but I wanna scream.How could anybody do the things you did so easily?And I say I don't care, I say that I'm fine,But you know I can't let it go, I've tried, I've tried, I've tried for so long.It takes strength to forgive, but I don't feel strong.
"The Grudge"
The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes (2023)
But I'm in the trees, I'm in the breeze,My footsteps on the ground.You'll see my face in every place,But you can't catch me now.Through wading grass, the months will pass,You'll feel it all around.I'm here, I'm there, I'm evеrywhere,But you can't catch me now.No, you can't catch mе now.
"Can't Catch Me Now"
Guts (Spilled) (2024)
Deluxe reissue of Guts album
I'm so obsessed with your ex (Uh-huh).I know she's been asleep on my side of your bed, and I can feel it.I'm starin' at her like I wanna get hurt,And I remember every detail you have evеr told me, so be careful, baby.
"Obsessed"
When he laughs at all my jokes,And he says I'm so American,Oh God, it's just not fair of himTo make me feel this much.I'll go anywhere he goes.And he says I'm so American.Oh God, I'm gonna marry himIf he keeps this shit up.I might just be in lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-love.
"So American"
I was half myself without you, now I feel so completeAnd if I'm not enough for you, you're not enough for meI fought a million battles, but you can't get to me nowYou're just a stranger I know everything about, ooh, oohYou're just a stranger I know everything aboutYou're just a stranger I know everything about
"Stranger"
You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love (2026)
Oh, one night I was bored in bedAnd stalked you on the internet.It's feminine intuition.'Cause I always had a vision of us standing like this,All pressed up in the bathroom line.You're lookin' like an angel on the walls of Versailles,The most alive I've ever been.But kiss me and I might drop dеad.
"Drop Dead", written by Olivia Rodrigo, Dan Nigro, Amy Allen
But my head is full of poison, and my heart is full of doubt,I got toxins in my bloodstream, you tried hard to suck 'em out.And it feels like medication, and it's good for me, I'm sure,But it don't matter how your love feels anymore.It'll never be the cure.It'll nеver be the curе.
"The Cure"
So, I'm patient, you're learning, pretend it's not hurting, oh, woah (Oh, woah)'Cause they say it's a virtue to not let good love slip away ('Way)So, I'm cool and forgiving, I'll take what you're giving, oh, woah (Oh, ah)But nothing's quite enough whеn I know that to get it, I begged.Yеah, to get it, I begged.
"Begged"
You're a spark in the dark and my clothes all caught aflameYou should feel how I feel when somebody says your name I'm a car speeding down the boulevard without a brakeAnd I want you more than any stupid song could ever sayI'm a heart made of wax and I'm melting in the sunI'm a thread on your shirt that is coming undoneI feel right, I feel wrong, I feel totally insaneAnd I want you more than any stupid song could ever say
"Stupid Song"
My head is spinning and my stomach is sickSay I'm in love, so it's hard to admitI can't eat, I can't sleepI think you're what's wrong with me
" What's Wrong With Me", written by Olivia Rodrigo, Dan Nigro, Teddy Riley, and Sasha Alex Sloan
And I could try convincing you they're just intrusive thoughtsBut you've seen me truly happy, so you know right now I'm notIf loving me means crying on the curb at LAXWell, then I guess I wish, I wish, I wish you loved me less
"Less", written by Olivia Rodrigo, Dan Nigro, Amy Allen
And it's too hard to describe thisIn a way that feels honestBut even when I'm quietI love you, baby, I promiseAnd I hope I never see what your face looks like goingA face I swear that I could spend my whole life knowingHerе's to hoping
"Honeybee"
