Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers, a band name you should not try to say five times fast, have teamed up with The Linda Lindas for a new single called “Please Me.” The energetic pop-punk cut features throwback lyrics to teenage years and the fun, fun, fun of doing shit your folks don’t know about. “Let me know when you‘re outside / I can’t risk my mom seeing you arrive,” the band chants.
Regarding the song, Teen Jesus said: “‘Please Me’ is about faking it till you make it. The lyrics are so cocky and overconfident, almost like an inner monologue of affirmations that you’d tell yourself on the way to a party. It’s about embodying the cool girl mindset until everyone has a big fat crush on you... These are the things you’d tell yourself and end up feeling sexy and cool and like everyone in the world is obsessed with you, even if you’re actually just super delusional and maybe had one too many Cruisers.”
