Diet Pepsi

[Verse 1]
My boy’s a winner, he loves the game
My lips reflect off his cross gold chain
I like the way he’s telling me
My ass looks good in these ripped blue jeans
My cheeks are red like cherries in the spring
Body’s a work of art you’d die to see

[Pre-Chorus]
Untouched, XO
Young lust, let’s— (Ah)

[Chorus]
When we drive in your car, I’m your baby (So sweet)
Losing all my innocence in the backseat
Say you love, say you love, say you love me (Love me)
Losing all my innocence in the backsеat
When we drive in your car, I’m your baby (So sweet)
Losing all my innocеnce in the backseat
Say you love, say you love, say you love me (Love me)
Losing all my innocence in the backseat

[Verse 2]
Break all the rules ’til we get caught
Fog up the windows in the parking lot
Summer love (Ah, ah), sexy
Sitting on his lap, sippin’ Diet Pepsi
I write my name with lipstick on your chest
I leave a mark so you know I’m the best

[Pre-Chorus]
Untouched (Untouched), XO (XO)
Young lust, let’s go (Ah)

[Chorus]
When we drive in your car, I’m your baby (So sweet)
Losing all my innocence in the backseat
Say you love, say you love, say you love me (Love me)
Losing all my innocence in the backseat
When we drive in your car, I’m your baby (So sweet)
Losing all my innocence in the backseat
Say you love, say you love, say you love me (Love me)
Losing all my innocence in the backseat

[Bridge]
When we—
I’m your baby
I’m your baby
When we—
(XO)

[Chorus]
When we drive in your car, I’m your baby (So sweet)
Losing all my innocence in the backseat
Say you love, say you love, say you love me (Love me)
Losing all my innocence in the backseat (Ah)
When we drive in your car, I’m your baby (So sweet)
Losing all my innocence in the backseat
Say you love, say you love, say you love me (Love me)
Losing all my innocence in the backseat

[Post-Chorus]
Untouched
Young lust
XO
Let’s go

SONG MEANING

“Diet Pepsi” by Addison Rae is a shimmering, cheeky pop anthem that plays with themes of image, confidence, and the pressures of modern femininity. On the surface, the song uses the metaphor of “Diet Pepsi” to represent something that’s sweet, addictive, and easy to consume—yet never quite filling or fully satisfying. Through playful, stylized lyrics, Addison Rae critiques the idea of being perceived as just a pretty, polished surface while reclaiming her own power and agency. The track explores the contrast between being underestimated and using that to one’s advantage, all wrapped in nostalgic Y2K-inspired production. Ultimately, “Diet Pepsi” is about owning your image, embracing your complexity, and thriving in a world that often expects you to stay in a simple, carbonated box.
