3. The song is about wanting a ‘bad’ girl for him to love which is portrayed well throughout the music
video. The video is about a girl texting this male character and flirting with him, they also exchange
photos. At the end of the video the girl’s boyfriend finds out she is texting this other male character
and then texts the him telling him to leave her alone. Here are a few shots from different parts of the
video.

4. Lyrics.
4) Just when you think that you're in control,
1) It could be ten, but then again, I can't
just when you think that you've got a hold,
remember half an hour since a quarter to four.
just when you get on a roll,
Throw on your clothes, the second side of Surfer
here it goes, here it goes, here it goes again.
Rosa, and you leave me with my jaw on the floor.
Oh, here it goes again.
I should have known,
2) Just when you think that you're in control,
should have known,
just when you think that you've got a hold,
should have known again,
just when you get on a roll,
but here it goes again.
here it goes, here it goes, here it goes again.
Oh, here it goes again.
Oh, here it goes again.
I should have known,
5) I guess there's got to be a break in the
should have known,
monotony, but Jesus, when it rains how it pours.
should have known again,
Throw on your clothes, the second side of Surfer
but here it goes again.
Rosa, and you leave me, yeah, you leave me
Oh, here it goes again.
6) Oh, here it goes again.
3) It starts out easy, something simple, something
I should have known,
sleazy, something inching past the edge of the
should have known,
reserve.
should have known again,
Now through lines of the cheap venetian blinds
but here it goes again.
your car is pulling off of the curb.
Oh, here it goes again.
5. The song is about a man falling in love with a woman after having a one night stand with her.
The video, however, is four men using treadmills to dance on.

6. I believe that many videos do support the idea that “Music
videos are simply an extension of the lyrics” but also from
my research I have found out that many other videos that
prove this statement wrong. Many artists may believe that
the video does not have to fit the lyrics because they either
have better ideas or they just find it too difficult to create a
fitting video.
