Bubblegum Milkshake
[Verse 1] Sunset slid a ribbon through the crack beneath my door. I traced it round my eyelids. Then the ceiling asked for more. My reflection beat me smiling, so I let her take the lead. Even silence gets dramatic when it finds the proper beat. [Hook] I'm a Bubblegum Milkshake... So nice and sweet. Imma make the earth quake... And be discrete. [Refrain I] Something in the air says yes with a little ultraviolet. I don’t know the question yet. I only know I like it. Streetlights blink in pink and blue— little secrets in a row. I never learned their language. Still, I always seem to know. [Instrumental Run] [Verse 2] The crosswalk changed its colors when my heartbeat changed its mind. A stranger laughed across the street. The whole block laughed in time. The moon arrived too early, wearing silver like a dare. I told it perfect timing is just boredom dressed with flair. [Hook] I'm a Bubblegum Milkshake... So nice and sweet. Imma make the earth quake... And be discrete. [Fast Bubblegum Rap — sustained acceleration] Quick flash, wristwatch, tick with a hiccup, streetlight skipped when the kick got picked up. High-top heartbeat, bright-side grammar, one small laugh made the whole frame stammer. Side-eye moon with a chrome-lined halo, said, “Take it slow.” I said, “Maybe—no.” Neon in stereo, intuition on radio, long way home just to see where the dayglow goes. Minute hand jittered, glittered, quit— I tapped the glass once and the whole clock skipped. Names make it smaller. Labels make it late. I leave room for wonder; it waits at the gate. Logic in brackets, magic in fragments, bright little accidents pulling like magnets. The world said, “Explain.” The beat said, “Next.” I lost the reason— and remembered the rest. [Hook] I'm a Bubblegum Milkshake... So nice and sweet. Imma make the earth quake... And be discrete. [Refrain II] Something in the night says stay like it knows a softer route. I don’t need a reason if the feeling figures out. The skyline spills its pockets— violet, silver, cobalt blue. I never ask the night for proof. It never asks me to.
