PRETTY LITTLE PSYCHO [Intro — whispered, music box] Mirror, mirror… Who’s the sweetest of them all? Giggle. Wrong answer. [Verse 1 — playful, rhythmic] Cherry lipstick, crooked halo Black stilettos on the table Sugar smile, a little danger Kiss me like we’re perfect strangers Got a secret in my pocket Little heart-shaped silver locket You can love me, you can hate me Either way, you entertain me [Pre-Chorus — building tension] Oh, you think I’m innocent? Baby, that’s a compliment Pretty face, a twisted mind Wanna see what’s left behind? One kiss, two lies Three little butterflies Four, five— Surprise! [Chorus — explosive electronic drop] I’m your pretty little psycho Dancing with my eyes closed Sweet like cotton candy With a heart made out of ice, oh! Pretty little psycho Love me, then I might go Round and round, we’re spinning Welcome to my freak show! La-la-la, I’m a little crazy Na-na-na, don’t you try to save me Pretty little psycho Baby, you created me! [Verse 2 — cheeky, bass-heavy] Pink champagne in broken glasses Writing names on dusty caskets Playing dress-up with the shadows Turning heartbreak into fashion You say, “Darling, you’re a nightmare” I say, “Thanks, I love the title” You were looking for an angel Oops. Wrong arrival. [Pre-Chorus] Oh, you think I’m delicate? Maybe just a little bit But the sweetest things can bite When you turn out all the lights One kiss, two lies Three little butterflies Four, five— Surprise! [Chorus — bigger harmonies] I’m your pretty little psycho Dancing with my eyes closed Sweet like cotton candy With a heart made out of ice, oh! Pretty little psycho Love me, then I might go Round and round, we’re spinning Welcome to my freak show! La-la-la, I’m a little crazy Na-na-na, don’t you try to save me Pretty little psycho Baby, you created me! [Bridge — beat cuts, whisper] You wanted a good girl… In a pretty little frame. Then you gave her all your nightmares… And wondered why she changed. Tick, tick… [Final Chorus — distorted bass, energetic] PRETTY LITTLE PSYCHO! Dancing with the lights low Sweetest little nightmare That you’ll never wanna let go Pretty little psycho Everybody say so Round and round, we’re spinning Welcome to my freak show! La-la-la, don’t you try to save me Na-na-na, you can never tame me Pretty little psycho And I like it that way! [Outro — music box slows down] Am I crazy? Pause. Maybe. But you still came back. Giggle. Door clicks shut.
