The audio was published to YouTube on September 16, 2013.
Critical reception
The song received generally positive reviews, with AllMusic's Tim Sendra referring to the interlude as "sassy" and "the cheerleader hip-hop jammer."[2][3] Rachel Ho of Musicale called the song, "a funky track which helps showcase the 20 year old's gargantuan vocal range."[4] It received a mixed review from Amanda Joyce of Portrait Magazine, who stated that it was, "not a bad song, but a song that gets old after you listen to it a few times. It's definitely not something you can have on repeat, unlike the rest of the album."[5]

Song lyrics
I wake up and my hair's a mess
And I'm too lazy to get, to get dressed, yeah
I love the way you love me 'cause you love me like that
I love the way you love me 'cause you love me like that
I never took my driving test
So every day you take me, take me to class, yeah
I love the way you love me 'cause you love me like that
I love the way you love me 'cause you love me like that
I'm a primadonna, somehow you still wanna
Gimme everything I want, yeah
I might be a diva, gimme what I need, uh
We can party all night long
I love the way you, love the way you love me, yeah
(I love the way you love me, love the way you love me)
I love the way you, love the way you love me, yeah
(I love the way you love me, love the way you love me)
Blah blah blah blah blah blah
I don't have to say nothing, de nada, uh
I love the way you love me 'cause you love me like that
I love the way you love me 'cause you love me like that
I ate all the candy in your piñata
You don't even like the way I say ba-na-na
I love the way you love me 'cause you love me like that
I love the way you love me 'cause you love me like that

Middle of the night just to wake you up
Nothin' on my mind but how we're so in love, yeah
