Intro:
D D G G   

D
You are somebody that I don't know
           D
But you're takin' shots at 
me like it's Patrón
                   G    
And I'm just like "Damn, 
          G
it's 7 a.m."
D
Say it in the street, 
that's a knock-out
        D
But you say it in a tweet, 
that's a cop-out
                   G  
And I'm just like "Hey, 
           G
are you okay?"

    D                          
And I ain't tryna mess with your
                   
self-expression but 
                       D 
I've learned the lesson
                            
That stressin' and obsessin' 
                           G
'bout somebody else is no fun
     A N.C.
And snakes and stones 
never broke my bones

   D           
So oh-oh, oh-oh,
                D 
oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
                 G   
You need to calm down, 
                   G
you're being too loud
                  D           
And I'm just like oh-oh, oh-oh,
                D 
oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
                  G  
You need to just stop, 
                    G
like can you just not step on my gown?
                 D    D
You need to calm down

D
You are somebody that we don't know
           D
But you're comin' at 
my friends like a missile
            G            
Why are you mad, when you 
          G
could be GLAAD? (You could be GLAAD)
D
Sunshine on the street at the parade
    D
But you would rather be in the dark ages
             G                      G
Makin' that sign, must've taken all night

D                           
You just need to take several 
                  
seats and then try 
                     D
to restore the peace
                        
And control your urges to 
                                  G
scream about all the people you hate
        A N.C.
'Cause shade never 
made anybody less gay

   D           
So oh-oh, oh-oh, 
                D
oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
                 G   
You need to calm down,
                   G 
you're being too loud
                  D    
And I'm just like oh-oh, 
                       D
oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
                  G       
You need to just stop, like 
               G
can you just not step on 
his gown?
                 D
You need to calm down

And we see you over there 
on the internet
D
  Comparing all the girls 
  who are killin' it
G                       
  But we figured you out,
              G  
  we all know now
           N.C.
We all got crowns, 
you need to calm down

N.C.
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, 
oh-oh, oh-oh
                 G
You need to calm down 
(You need to calm down)
                 G
You're being too loud 
(You're being too loud)
                  D     
And I'm just like oh-oh, 
                      D
oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
                  G
You need to just stop 
(Can you stop?)
                  G
Like can you just not 
step on our gowns?
                 D
You need to calm down
              You are somebody that I don't know,
But you're taking shots at me like it's Patrón.
And I'm just like, "Damn!
It's 7 AM."

Say it in the street, that's a knock-out.
But you say it in a tweet, that's a cop-out.
And I'm just like, "Hey!
Are you OK?"

And I ain't tryna mess with your self-expression,
But I've learned the lesson
That stressing and obsessing
'Bout somebody else is no fun.
And snakes and stones never broke my bones.

So, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh!
You need to calm down.
You're being too loud.
And I'm just like,
"Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh!
You need to just stop.
Like, can you just not step on my gown?
You need to calm down."

You are somebody that we don't know,
But you're coming at my friends like a missile.
Why are you mad
When you could be GLAAD?
(You could be GLAAD.)

Sunshine on the street at the parade,
But you would rather be in the dark ages
Just making that sign.
Must've taken all night.

You just need to take several seats
And then try to restore the peace
And control your urges to scream
About all the people you hate
'Cause shade never made anybody less gay

So, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh!
You need to calm down.
You're being too loud.
And I'm just like,
"Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh!
You need to just stop.
Like, can you just not step on his gown.
You need to calm down."

And we see you over there on the Internet
Comparing all the girls who are killing it,
But we figured you out.
We all know now.
We all got crowns.
You need to calm down.

Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh!
You need to calm down.
(You need to calm down)
You're being too loud.
(You're being too loud)
And I'm just like,
"Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh!
You need to just stop.
(Can you stop?)
Like, can you just not step on our gowns.
You need to calm down."
