[Intro] (robotic stutter) Cl-cl-clothes, strip-strip, yeah Cl-cl-clothes, strip-strip, yeah (whispered) Hands off the zipper, boy. [Verse 1] (dry, rhythmic vocals) You bought the drink, you played the part tonight Thinking your counterfeit will buy the right Step to my space, you think you run the floor Measuring inches right outside my door I read the signs, I know your cheap routine You want the fabric, not what’s in between [Pre-Chorus] (rising synth, vocal harmonies) Oh, you lean in close, calculating every seam Oh, chasing a touch like an empty vanity dream Boy, you don’t get a ticket to the show Before you even start, you need to know [Chorus] (heavy bass drop, punchy delivery) You wanna strip my velvet, tear right through the lace Thinking that your vanity can put me in my place You wanna take my armor, pull down every thread No, you can’t touch the body, get it through your head (robotic chant) L-L-Lace, l-l-lace, step back T-T-Touch, t-t-touch, snap back [Post-Chorus] (vocal chops) Hands off, hands off, oh-oh You don’t own the skin below Hands off, hands off, oh-oh Watch me let the bass line blow [Verse 2] (syncopated, arrogant flow) Checking my tags like I'm a clearance prize Caught in the glare of your predatory eyes You talk a storm, you flex a plastic crown Thinking a smile means the walls come down I pull the strings, I weave the silhouette I'm not a trophy that you're gonna get [Pre-Chorus] (rising synth, vocal harmonies) Oh, you lean in close, calculating every seam Oh, chasing a touch like an empty vanity dream Boy, you don’t get a ticket to the show Before you even start, you need to know [Chorus] (heavy bass drop, punchy delivery) You wanna strip my velvet, tear right through the lace Thinking that your vanity can put me in my place You wanna take my armor, pull down every thread No, you can’t touch the body, get it through your head (robotic chant) L-L-Lace, l-l-lace, step back T-T-Touch, t-t-touch, snap back [Bridge] (half-time beat, filtered kick, spoken/whispered) Button by button... you think you're close. Zipper by zipper... too comatose. (building vocal layers) You want the dress, you want the spine, You want what never will be thine! (screamed ad-lib) Back off! [Drop] (distorted synth lead, hard kick) [Chorus] (full arrangement, maximum energy) You wanna strip my velvet, tear right through the lace Thinking that your vanity can put me in my place You wanna take my armor, pull down every thread No, you can’t touch the body, get it through your head (robotic chant) L-L-Lace, l-l-lace, step back T-T-Touch, t-t-touch, snap back [Outro] (fading synths, isolated robotic vocal) Cl-cl-clothes, strip-strip, no. Not tonight. (dry vocal click) Done.
