[Verse 1 - soft and intimate, vocal delivery is sensual and sultry] I walk in like a headline you weren’t meant to read, Stiletto confidence and a mouthful of greed. This dress is made of trouble, these eyes are tipped in lead, You think you want the glitter, sugar—but the gunpowder’s ahead. I smile like a razor tucked inside a rose, A compliment that lingers… just before it goes. You came here for the sparkle, for the sequins and the shine, But baby, tonight… the danger’s gonna be all mine. [Chorus - full band, punchy brass stabs, explosive energy] It’s Glitter & Gunpowder, a beautiful threat, A kiss that you won’t ever forget. Diamonds for the daring, bullets for the weak, I’m the party and the poison, the scream and the sleek. So raise your glass to ruin, darling, don’t you blink, ’Cause when the spark meets the powder… well, you know what I think. [Verse 2 - driving swing tempo, sharp female vocals] You think you see a goddess wrapped up in gold lamé— Look closer, baby. That’s a blade tucked in the bouquet. I dance like I’ve got nothing but all night to lose, But every step’s a trigger… and these heels leave bruises. This room’s full of mirrors, but none of them reflect the truth, ’Cause glamour’s just a costume for the raw and uncouth. So darling, if you’re staying, you’d better understand— You’re not just at a party. You’re in no-man’s-land. [Chorus - full band, punchy brass stabs, explosive energy] It’s Glitter & Gunpowder, a beautiful threat, A kiss that you won’t ever forget. Diamonds for the daring, bullets for the weak, I’m the party and the poison, the scream and the sleek. So raise your glass to ruin, darling, don’t you blink, ’Cause when the spark meets the powder… well, you know what I think. [Bridge - tense breakdown, driving bass and drums, sharp delivery] You can have the glitter—the flash, the praise, the cheer… But gunpowder’s the part of me you really ought to fear. ’Cause when the music fades and all that’s left is the smoke, That’s when you learn… which one of us is broke. [Outro - full energy, lingering smoke, sharp vocal drop to big final hit] So dance close if you dare me. Laugh like you mean it, sweet. Just remember who brought the glitter… And who brought the heat.
