[Chorus]
Am I insane expecting you to change?
It's the same thing over and over again
Déjà vu
It's time to act your age
It's the same thing over and over again
Déjà vu
[Verse 1]
Just admit it, you're an asshole livin' in a castle
You think you're better than everyone
But you can't buy me with somethin' shiny
'Cause I am not like everyone
[Pre-Chorus]
I think I've had it, enough of your bullshit
You're not romantic, you for sure are hopeless
I'll buy a Range Rover just to run you over and call you out
[Chorus]
Am I insane expеcting you to change?
It's the same thing ovеr and over again
Déjà vu
It's time to act your age
It's the same thing over and over again
Déjà vu
Pills and alcohol
Excuses, yeah, I've heard them all
Insane, expecting you to change
It's the same thing over and over again
Déjà vu
Am I insane expecting you to change?

[Verse 2]
You think that the number inside of your bank account
Is the way into my heart
They say you're a saint, but you act like a sinner
Yeah, I shoulda known right from the start
[Pre-Chorus]
But I think I've had it, enough of emotions
You're not romantic, you for sure are hopeless
When in doubt, I'll take a picture of us and I'll cut you out

[Bridge]
I've seen this all a thousand times (A thousand times)
Stuck in the memory
I can't go back and change your mind (Can't change your mind)
Why does this keep happenin'?
Right time, wrong situation
Was all my love wasted?
I've seen this all a thousand times (Too many times)
[Chorus]
Am I insane expecting you to change?
It's the same thing over and over again
Déjà vu
It's time to act your age

Genius Annotation
“Déjà vu” is the 8th track off Avril Lavigne’s seventh studio album Love Sux.
Speaking about the song on her Spotify Storyline, Avril said:
“This is the classic story of going around in circles and feeling like you’re not getting anywhere. You have to be able to move forward and communicate in relationships. If you’re not moving forward, it feels like déjà vu. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve learned people don’t change and you can’t expect them to.”
