"Shake It Off"

I stay out too late

Got nothin' in my brain

That's what people say, mm-mm

That's what people say, mm-mm

I go on too many dates

But I can't make 'em stay

At least that's what people say, mm-mm

That's what people say, mm-mm

But I keep cruisin'

Can't stop, won't stop movin'

It's like I got this music

In my mind sayin', "It's gonna be alright"

'Cause the players gonna play, play, play, play, play

And the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate

Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake

I shake it off, I shake it off (ooh-ooh-ooh)

Heartbreakers gonna break, break, break, break, break

And the fakers gonna fake, fake, fake, fake, fake

Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake

I shake it off, I shake it off (ooh-ooh-ooh)

I never miss a beat

I'm lightnin' on my feet

And that's what they don't see, mm-mm

That's what they don't see, mm-mm

I'm dancin' on my own (dancin' on my own)

I'll make the moves up as I go (moves up as I go)

And that's what they don't know, mm-mm

That's what they don't know, mm-mm

But I keep cruisin'

Can't stop, won't stop groovin'

It's like I got this music

In my mind sayin', "It's gonna be alright"

'Cause the players gonna play, play, play, play, play

And the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate

Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake

I shake it off, I shake it off (ooh-ooh-ooh)

Heartbreakers gonna break, break, break, break, break

And the fakers gonna fake, fake, fake, fake, fake

Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake

I shake it off, I shake it off (ooh-ooh-ooh)

Shake it off, I shake it off

I, I, I shake it off, I shake it off

I, I, I shake it off, I shake it off

I, I, I shake it off, I shake it off (ooh-ooh-ooh)

Hey, hey, hey

Just think, while you've been gettin' down and out

About the liars and the dirty, dirty cheats of the world

You could've been gettin' down to this sick beat

My ex-man brought his new girlfriend

She's like, "Oh my God," but I'm just gonna shake

And to the fella over there with the hella good hair

Won't you come on over, baby? We can shake, shake, shake

Yeah, oh

'Cause the players gonna play, play, play, play, play

And the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate (haters gonna hate)

Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake

I shake it off, I shake it off (ooh-ooh-ooh)

Heartbreakers gonna break, break, break, break, break (mm-mm)

And the fakers gonna fake, fake, fake, fake, fake (and fake, and fake, and fake)

Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake

I shake it off, I shake it off (ooh-ooh-ooh)

Shake it off, I shake it off

I, I, I shake it off, I shake it off

I, I, I shake it off, I shake it off

I, I, I shake it off, I shake it off (ooh-ooh-ooh)

Shake it off, I shake it off

I, I, I shake it off, I shake it off

(You got to) shake it off, I shake it off

I, I, I shake it off, I shake it off
