"my way" lyrics

"my way"

It's a little hard to stomach all your amateur moves
You know he's with me, like obviously
But you linger in the air just like a bad perfume
It's getting to me, embarrassingly

And here's the part where the girl gets pissed
And the girl is me, did you get that hint?

You're in my way now
Don't go, go where you don't belong
Think I can't make out
Ah-ah, how hard you hang on
Kind of insane how
You keep calling, but you never get the message
It goes my way now
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah

Man, I wonder what you think is gonna go down
You send him another poem and think that he'll let me go
Or maybe you're just tryna get me riled up now
You're posting another pic in clothes that I know are his

Well, here's a map of the lines I drew
And some girl steps over and the girl is you

You're in my way now
Don't go, go where you don't belong
Think I can't make out
Ah-ah, how hard you hang on
Kind of insane how
You keep calling, but you never get the message
It goes my way now
Ah-ah, ah-ah

So, where'd you get that confidence from?
Last time that I checked, I won
Let me be direct, "Just stop"
You're being fucking weird
Maybe I'm a petty bitch, but you made me resort to this
That's it, I win
That's it, I win

You're in my way now
Don't go, go where you don't belong
Think I can't make out
Ah-ah, how hard you hang on
Kind of insane how
You keep calling, but you never get the message
It goes my way now
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah

"My Way" had the biggest first-hour view score on YouTube among the tracks from "You Seem Pretty Sad For A Girl So In Love" album.
Talking on Popcast about the inspiration behind this song, Olivia Rodrigo said on the 29th of May, 2026, "I was just really in the heat of the moment writing it and that's how it is. Sometimes you're like 'I really need to get this out and I'm fucking pissed'. Maybe it isn't the most evolved thing ever to say but I really loved this song and I loved the way it turned out." She also added, "I was going through some Gwen Stefani vibes in there."
