+ Show full styles

[Intro: cheap drum machine + chant, 20–30 seconds] Love me or don’t... I still get paid... Say it again... [Verse 1] Pirate pop on a borrowed beat, Grin in the hook and a knife in the teeth, World-town radio, cheap and loud, Say my name like you’re proud — or don’t... [Pre-Chorus] Smile if you want... I don’t need it... [Chorus] Pirate Pop, take me or leave me, Paper in the sky, don’t you grieve me, From the blog to the block we run, 2000s in the mouth — and the song ain’t done! [Instrumental Break: bounce, chant, 25–35 seconds] [Verse 2] Creator in a knockoff crown, Late-night lights when the sun goes down, Hate me, love me, I still get through, The whole damn decade talking new... [Pre-Chorus] Smile if you want... I don’t need it... [Chorus] Pirate Pop, take me or leave me, Paper in the sky, don’t you grieve me, From the blog to the block we run, 2000s in the mouth — and the song ain’t done! [Breakdown: drums and voice only, 15–20 seconds] Love me or don’t... I still get paid... [Verse 3] Passport stamp on a stolen groove, Mouthy and bright and I got nothing to prove, If you want the pretty version, pick another song, This one came to stay too long... [Pre-Chorus] Smile if you want... I don’t need it... [Chorus] Pirate Pop, take me or leave me, Paper in the sky, don’t you grieve me, From the blog to the block we run, 2000s in the mouth — and the song ain’t done! [Bridge: half-spoken sass, then slam back] [Final Chorus — bigger stacked vocals] Pirate Pop, take me or leave me, Paper in the sky, don’t you grieve me, From the blog to the block we run, 2000s in the mouth — and the song ain’t done! [Outro: long bounce groove, fading chant, 20–30 seconds]
