Handlebars Lyrics by Jennie & Dua Lipa

I trip and fall in love
Just like a Tuesday drunk
I always go all in, all in, all in
Over the handlebars
Hitting the ground so hard
If I’m alone, fallin’, fallin’, fallin’
We ain’t gotta talk about it

Mercy
Why is it love is never kind to me? (Me)
I heard that fools rush in and, yeah, that’s me (Me)
It burns me time and time again
So why am I still fixing for this frying pan (Thinkin’)
I wonder what you’re doing for tonight and forever (Oh-oh)
I could be the rest of your life or whatever
My lips and your lips, we could press them together (Together, ‘gether)
I don’t ever think twice, and, baby, that’s why
I trip and fall in love
Just like a Tuesday drunk
I always go all in, all in, all in
Over the handlebars
Hitting the ground so hard
If I’m alone, fallin’, fallin’, fallin’
Another round, another drink
I try to stop, but I can’t think
About anything else but you (But you)
And I’m a little too buzzed on your love to play it cute
A single kiss, I lost my mind for seven days and seven nights
Can’t eat, sleep, baby, it’s true (It’s true)
Tryna bite my lip, I’m probably gonna slip
And say some crazy shit to you
I wonder what you’re doing for tonight and forever (Oh-oh)
I don’t ever think twice, and, baby, that’s why

I trip and fall in love
Just like a Tuesday drunk
I always go all in, all in, all in
Over the handlebars
Hitting the ground so hard
If I’m alone, fallin’, fallin’, fallin’ (Fallin’, yeah)
We ain’t gotta talk about
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na (Yeah)
We ain’t gotta talk about
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
We ain’t gotta talk about it
