[Intro – 8] baby scratch: tax… tax… she— glitch chop: she-she-she tax low in the static: Meter running. [Verse 1] Wrist out, bottle on the table She count quiet, she don’t label One song, two if you able Tip short, she unstable Don’t say chill, don’t say wait Don’t say later, that’s too late She already clocked your face Smile pretty, that’s she tax Neon on the pole like a warning Dream-pink, then it glitches orange Record skip, then the beat find home She sit down, now you not alone [Pre] She ain’t ask, she already know Lights hit, then the price show You can look, you can stall Soon as she sit, that’s the law (scratch: law / law / that’s the—) [Hook] That’s she tax, that’s she tax You knew the price when she sat Can’t take it back, that’s she tax Pay that, that’s she tax That’s she tax, that’s she tax Don’t do the math, just relax If you in here, that’s the pact Pay that, that’s she tax (last “pay that”: full stop, needle drag, kick slams) [Verse 2] Second song, she don’t reset Same eyes, heavier debt You talk sweet, she collect Punk bass under a church-pad wreck Glitch in the light, her face splits twice Left side heaven, right side price Old breakbeat cut through the chrome Ghost in the bones — leave the name off the mic Don’t fold early, don’t act brand new This the booth where the night come due If you short, she already knew Smile anyway. That’s she tax too [Pre] She ain’t ask, she already know Lights hit, then the price show You can look, you can stall Soon as she sit, that’s the law [Hook] That’s she tax, that’s she tax You knew the price when she sat Can’t take it back, that’s she tax Pay that, that’s she tax That’s she tax, that’s she tax Don’t do the math, just relax If you in here, that’s the pact Pay that, that’s she tax [Bridge — her] I don’t owe the speech, I owe the spin Clock on the wall, I still don’t end You can call it cute, you can call it sin I call it mine when the lights go dim Don’t explain the dance, don’t translate If it’s hitting, let it stay I can clock out. I can stay Either way, you gon’ pay (vocoder double → dirty soul “ooo” into feedback, then OUT) [Turntable break – 8] forward-back-forward on pay that transformer on tax glitch eats the last bar kick returns ugly [Final hook — stack] That’s she tax, that’s she tax You knew the price when she sat Can’t take it back, that’s she tax Pay that, that’s she tax That’s she tax, that’s she tax Don’t do the math, just relax If you in here, that’s the pact Pay that… (silence 1 beat) …that’s she tax [Outro] vinyl hiss one baby scratch whisper in the cable: Meter’s still running.
