Cover me in diamonds
Cover me in gold
You get what you pay for
You get what you sow
A temporary fix
A quick handed trick -
it’s all in the redirection
Just cover me in diamonds
I’ll glitter all night long
Cover me in dollars
Cover me in lies
They say give me all of your money
You’ll seed a better life
A trick for a sermon
A snake in disguise
No it ain’t right
Just go ahead and cover me in diamonds
I’ll glitter all night long
What you see isn’t real
But no one cares, no one cares
They’re building smoke screens, can’t you see?
They’re telling stories that we shouldn’t believe!
Yeah, I question your authenticity -
“You’ll never be cool like me”
When they say -
“You’ll never be cool like me”
Cover me in trends
A watered down design
Pick a fight with Katy
With end words that rhyme
I’d rather die!
Don’t wanna be another sellout
They’re building smoke screens, can’t you see?
They’re telling stories that we shouldn’t believe!
Yeah, I question your authenticity -
“You’ll never be cool like me”
When they say -
“You’ll never be cool like me”
Don’t want your diamonds
Don’t want your gold
You got money in spades
Reverse Robin Hood Syndrome
Don’t want your sermons
Don’t want your lies
I’ve had enough
Shut the fuck up
What you see isn’t real
But no one cares, no one cares
They’re building smoke screens, can’t you see?
They’re telling stories that we shouldn’t believe!
Yeah, I question your authenticity -
“You’ll never be cool like me”
When they say -
“You’ll never be cool like me”

Robot Vs. Girl

Caught up in wanting
Caught up in maybes
Caught up in greener grass
I didn’t know that I couldn’t go back
I couldn’t see in black and white
Just a civil war of grays
Although I let you take me under
With all your glitter and your wonder
I couldn’t go back holding on to your fire
Ignite me, burn me up, slow
I couldn’t go back holding on to your fire
Don’t try to hold me down
Turn my world upside down
See the backdoor, that’s what this code’s for
Let’s all bow down to your ego
What do we know?
All hail the Queen
All hail the Queen
Systematic, automatic
Bureaucratic, thematic
So mechanic, make me your girl
Caught up in equations
Binary conversations
All these zeros and ones
Make me so fucking lonely
Do it, pull the trigger my gun
I wanna hold your fire, be killed with desire
Ignite me, and burn me up slow
I couldn’t go back, cut the red wire
Don’t try to hold me down
Turn my world upside down
It’s more than decor, a heart that beats for
Let’s all bow down to your ego
What do we know?
All hail the Queen
All hail the Queen
Stand back to back
Are you ready for combat?
There’s no turning back, no coming back
Once the bullet’s on it’s track
Twenty steps forward
Fight till it’s over
I’ve got you cornered, got you pegged
I’ve got your number
Once the bullet’s on it’s track
Where do we go?
Don’t try to hold me down
Turn my world upside down
More money, more fame
You’re so caught up in your ego
Don’t try to hold me down
Turn my world upside down
It’s more than decor, a heart that beats for
Let’s all bow down to your ego
What do we know?
All hail the Queen
All hail the Queen
Caught up in wanting
Caught up in maybes
Caught up in greener grass
I didn’t know that I couldn’t go back

Reality TV
Cue the laugh can
Cue the awwwwws
Cue the sad story with a happy ending
Congrats, your hashtag’s trending
Cue the uplifting music
Cue the claps, cue the drums
Cue the build up of feelings they’re feeding
Since scene number one
That’s some scary shit, son
I’d like a time refund
Wait, can I say shit on the radio?
No? Oh, ok then, I’ll tell you what my Daddy says
Who cares?
Who cares?
Who cares?
Who fucking cares!
Cue the laugh can
Cue the awwwwws
Cue the sad story with a happy ending
Congrats, your hashtag’s trending
There’s nothing even real about reality shows.

Pop Song

I wish that I could calm my brain
I wish I didn’t feel insane
I wish that I could write a pop song
Without sounding a bit #stupid, yo
I wish that I could like my face
And didn’t feel so out of place
(They say) “Didn’t you know?
one two drop the beat down”
Didn’t you know?
Apple C & V put it on repeat
I wish so many things
But I only want one thing
When they say you need that money, got to get paid
Or get really famous just to get laid
I don’t care about money and fame
No, I want love
When they say you need that money, got to get paid
And get really famous just to get laid
I don’t care about money and fame
No, I want love
I wish that I could speak my mind
Without you getting all up in my shit
I wish that I could break your straight, straight line
I wish that I had time to settle down
They say,
“one two drop the be-beat down on one”
I wish so many things
But I only want one thing
When they say you need that money, got to get paid
And get really famous just to get laid
I don’t care about money and fame
No, I want love
When they say you need that money, got to get paid
And get really famous just to get laid
I don’t care about money and fame
No, I want love
Happiness is all I see
When everything’s in major D chord
Nothing ever sad in minor
Life in D is so much finer
Happiness is all I see
When everything’s in major D chord
They say, “Didn’t you know?
one two drop the beat down.”
Didn’t you know?
“Ctrl + C and V put it on repeat”
I wish so many things
But I only want one thing
When they say you need that money, got to get paid
And get really famous just to get laid
I don’t care about money and fame
No, I want love
When they say you need that money, got to get paid
And get really famous just to get laid
I don’t care about money and fame
No, I want love

Pretty Things

All the pretty things
All the pretty things
Rushing out of your mouth
The dust is settling
Quicker than a blink
And all the pretty things you said won’t be enough
All I wanted was to be
Anything but me
Anything that you could see
Like all the pretty things
You touch like they mean everything
I wish I was your girl
I wish I was your world
All the pretty things
Do they make you mad like I do?
All the pretty things
Can they make you laugh like I do?
All I wanted was to be
Anything but me
Anything that you could see
Like all the pretty things
You touch like they mean everything
I wish I was your girl
I wish I was your world
I wish I was your girl
I wish I was your world
I wish I was enough
Why can’t I be enough?
All I wanted was to be
Anything but me
Anything that you could see

Tell me what you’re thinking
Every little secret
I wanna know you like a second skin
Own you like a Vixen
I’ll be your Iago
Whispering in mono
Your pretty little sycophant
Oblivious affliction
Oh, where to start?
(bullet straight right through the heart)
Oh, it’s an art
Tearing everything apart!
Look out, here I am
Blowing through your brain
Like a motherfucking train
All eyes up you will know my name
Look out, here I am
Blowing through domain
Like a fucking hurricane
All eyes up, you will know my name
It’s more than settling the score
I just want to rip your chord out
Break every little vein
You must think I’m so insane!
Oh, where to start?
(bullet straight right through the heart)
Oh, it’s an art
Tearing everything apart!
Look out, here I am
Blowing through your brain
Like a motherfucking train
All eyes up you will know my name
Look out, here I am
Blowing through domain
Like a fucking hurricane
