# Bite Me [Intro — bass and drums only] [Deep, rubbery bass riff] [Spoken, amused] You always this dramatic? [Verse 1] You showed up after midnight Looking like a warning sign Black shirt, silver rings And a very rehearsed pickup line Said you never see the daylight Said you sleep until it's dark I said, "Baby, that's convenient But it's hardly avant-garde" [Pre-Chorus] You keep staring at my neck Like you're trying to be discreet If you're gonna make a move Better find yourself a beat [Chorus — big funky hook] Bite me, baby, bite me You can try but you can't frighten me Sharp teeth, sweet talk Got me dancing on the sidewalk Bite me, baby, bite me If you want me, better find me Underneath the flashing lights I got all the time tonight [Post-Chorus — rhythmic vocal chops] Ah-ah, bite me Mm-mm, try me Ah-ah, bite me Come and find me [Verse 2] You said you've been around for centuries I said, "That explains the shoes" You've got all that immortality And still got nothing new Tried to hypnotize me slowly With your very serious eyes I said, "That's a lovely party trick But can you dance in time?" [Pre-Chorus] Now you're staring at my neck And you're stepping on my feet If you're gonna steal a kiss Better learn to feel the beat [Chorus] Bite me, baby, bite me You can try but you can't frighten me Sharp teeth, sweet talk Got me dancing on the sidewalk Bite me, baby, bite me If you want me, better find me Underneath the flashing lights I got all the time tonight [Instrumental Dance Break — 16 bars] [Heavy elastic bass, syncopated drums, guitar chops] [Playful vocal chops and percussion build] [Bridge — stripped down, whispered] Maybe you're trouble Maybe I'm worse Maybe that heartbeat Isn't a curse [Spoken] Wait. Do you even have a heartbeat? [Final Chorus — bigger harmonies] Bite me, baby, bite me You can try but you can't frighten me Sharp teeth, sweet talk Got me dancing on the sidewalk Bite me, baby, bite me If you want me, better find me Underneath the flashing lights I got all the time tonight [Outro — bass-driven, call and response] Bite me! (Try me!) Bite me! (Find me!) All that time and nowhere to be You can spend a little here with me [Final bass riff, tight drum hit] [End]
