You Know Better Than That

smoky southern female vocals, Chicago style dub step, rhythm, raw, ‑Rock, ‑country, ‑rap, ‑guitar, ‑industrial

[verse]
Why you gotta do this? 
I'm facin' a vacant expression...
Look me in the eyes,
Straight up answer the question (and....)

[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t take “huh?” for an answer
I’m not gonna sit here while you are all like (“Wait What?”)
You know better than that
Baby
You know better than that

[Chorus]
I don’t take “huh?” for an answer
I’m not gonna sit here while you are all like (“Wait What?”)
You know better than that
Baby
You know better than that

[Verse 2]
I sent a TED Talk text, three slides, four graphs
You hit me back with sixteen question marks and emoji that laughs
My patience has a data cap—you’re streaming in 4K
Buffering my sanity, please upgrade your “mmm kay?”

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I don’t take “huh?” typed in italics
Don’t “lol whut??” at my thermo dine nammix
Close your last tab, read the sign, it’s clear
It literally says: “Only authorized personnel” in here

[Chorus]
I don’t take “huh?” for an answer
I’m not gonna sit here while you are all like (“Wait What?”)
You know better than that
Baby
You know better than that

[Post-Chorus]
Nope—no reruns, no recap
This conversation's run off the map
Questions? I say Return to sender
I don't refund in legal tender

[Verse 3]
You’re like a podcast ad I can’t skip past
“Have you heard about—?” Bro, we did that last!
Your curiosity’s cute till it turns to a quiz
Multiple choice? Nah, I'm through with this

[Rap Break / Breakdown]
Uh!
Hands up if you get it on the first try (first try)
Hands down if you making me clarify (why?)
I got receipts, screenshots, flowcharts, Venn Diagrams
You still stuck asking where the story begins?
Listen—Google it, doodle it, noodle it through
If even Siri’s exhausted, what you want me to do?
I’m a limited-edition patience pack—sold out!
Say “huh?” again like you're shrouded in doubt!

[Bridge] (dramatic key change nobody asked for)
I spelled it out in glitter glue
On cupcakes shaped like “YES I DO”
You licked the frosting, missed the clue
Now the sprinkles say “I want you!”

[Pre-Chorus (Call & Response)]
[Me] I don’t take “huh?” for an answer (Huh?)
BOOO!
[Me] I’m not gonna sit here while you go (Wait-)

[record scratch]

[Final Chorus – Double Time]
I don’t take “huh?” for an answer (wrap it up!)
I’m not gonna sit here while you are all like (wrap it up!)
“Wait / What?” (wrap it up!)
You know better than that (wrap it up!)
Baby—baby—babyyyy (time’s up, baby!)
You know better than that

[FIN]
