Casual physical intimacy, late-night hookup themes
Detailed Analysis
The lyrics describe a late-night casual romantic/physical encounter with someone who may or may not be real, or who represents a recurring impulsive 'bad decision.' The phrase 'we make out' is explicit enough in describing physical intimacy, and the overall context — late nights, impulsive meetups, describing the person as 'a bad decision' — strongly implies a pattern of casual physical encounters. The line 'we go together like the gum on my shoes' suggests something sticky, undesirable, yet hard to shake — reinforcing the theme of a recurring casual or purely physical relationship. There is no explicit profanity, violence, or drug/alcohol reference, but the sexual undertones (making out framed as impulsive and late-night) and the theme of casual or compulsive physical involvement warrant a minimum age recommendation of 16.

Lyrics
Call you up on a Tuesday Say, "What's up? Babe, it's too late Why d'you have to be so complicated?" Complicated 'Cause I'm not sure if I've seen you before You looked familiar when I saw you We go together like the gum on my shoes We make out, we make out when it's too late We go out, we go out on a Tuesday A crowded place, waitin' for you Am I lost? Why can't I find you? a silhouette that's in my head You don't exist, you're my imagination You don't exist, you're just a bad decision 'Cause I'm not sure if I've seen you before You looked familiar when I saw you We go together like the gum on my shoes We make out, we make out when it's too late We go out, we go out on a Tuesday 'Cause I'm not sure if I've seen you before You looked familiar when I saw you We go together like the gum on my shoes We make out, we make out when it's too late We go out, we go out on a Tuesday
