That's So Us

"**That's So Us**" is a song by Allie X. It was co-written with Billboard, Jeff Lebron, and Leland and produced by Billboard and Realmind. It is the eighth track off of the album CollXtion II. A demo of the song featuring a slightly different instrumental and different vocals and lyrics leaked in late 2016.

Around 2017, Much Music Canada funded and aired a music video for this song. However, the music video has never been released officially since it was only aired on TV. On February 27, 2022, an anonymous person leaked the original music video on Lanaboards through YouTube. Someone had claimed to have seen the music video on Lanaboards before.

## Background

In an e-mail to her mailing list, Allie said the following about the song: "It might be the most bubblegum song I’ve ever written, but I fxcking love it. I think you guys will too. If you guys like it, I want to make it big. Like, make a high quality polished video, take it to the radio, take over the world big."

## Lyrics

* Final & Unsolved versions
* Demo

**[Verse 1]**

Can't do crowds, not our scene

We get anxiety

That's so you, that's so me

That's so us

Wearing black at the beach

Looking pale, feeling chic

That's so you, that's so me

That's so us

**[Pre-chorus]**

We think that politics is such a waste of time

We've been a wreck together since 2009

We've seen each other naked, We've seen each other cry

You make me not want to die

**[Chorus]**

What I like about you baby

Is how you annoy me daily

But you still fucking amaze me

That's so us! That's so us!

Ya, we're both a lot to handle

I'm a Leo, you're a Cancer

We take on the world together

That's so us! That's so us!

**[Verse 2]**

We make peppermint tea

And watch Space Oddyssey

That's so you, that's so me

That's so us

And I sing in the car

While you play air guitar

That's so you, that's so me

That's so us

**[Pre-chorus]**

We think that politics is such a waste of time

We've been a wreck together since 2009

We've seen each other naked, 've seen each other cry

You make me not want to die

**[Chorus]**

What I like about you baby

Is how you annoy me daily

But you still fucking amaze me

That's so us! That's so us!

Ya, we're both a lot to handle

I'm a Leo, you're a Cancer

We take on the world together

That's so us! That's so us!

**[Refrain]**

Ahhh, ahhh, ahhh

That's so us! That's so us!

Ahhh, ahhh, ahhh

That's so us! That's so us!

**[Bridge]**

When I'm sick, when I'm sad

You always bring me back

When you're wild, when you're mad

I'm your girl

Shit gets real, good and bad

But we cry till we laugh

Through the pain, through the fads

That's so us (that's so us)

**[Chorus]**

What I like about you baby

Is how you annoy me daily

But you still fucking amaze me

That's so us! That's so us!

Ya, we're both a lot to handle

I'm a Leo, you're a Cancer

We take on the world together

That's so us! That's so us!

**[Outro]**

Ahhh, ahhh, ahhh

That's so us! That's so us!

Ahhh, ahhh, ahhh

Ahhh

**[Verse 1]**

Can't do crowds, not our scene

We get anxiety

That's so you, that's so me

That's so us

Wearing black at the beach

'Cause it's so fucking chic

That's so you, that's so me

That's so us

**[Pre-chorus]**

We think that politics is such a waste of time

We haven't eaten gluten since 2009

We've seen each other naked, 've seen each other cry

You make me not want to die

**[Chorus]**

What I like about you baby

Is how you annoy me daily

But you still fucking amaze me

That's so us! That's so us!

Ya, we're both a lot to handle

I'm a Leo, you're a Cancer

We take on the world together

That's so us! That's so us!

**[Verse 2]**

We make peppermint tea

And watch Space Oddyssey

That's so you, that's so me

That's so us

And you tune your guitar,

While I lie on your arm

That's so you, that's so me

That's so us

**[Pre-chorus]**

We think that politics is such a waste of time

We haven't eaten gluten since 2009

We've seen each other naked, 've seen each other cry

You make me not want to die

**[Chorus]**

What I like about you baby

Is how you annoy me daily

But you still fucking amaze me

That's so us! That's so us!

Ya, we're both a lot to handle

I'm a Leo, you're a Cancer

We take on the world together

That's so us! That's so us!

**[Outro]**

Ahhh, ahhh, ahhh

Ahhh, ahhh, ahhh
