WRAPPED IN TROUBLE ZYRA [Intro — Soft Music Box, Whispered Female Vocals] Pretty paper. Silk ribbon. One little warning… Don’t open what you can’t handle. [Deep Bass Enters] Mm… Merry Christmas. [Verse 1 — Low, Seductive Rhythmic Rap] Black satin, red bow, midnight on the clock, See you watching from the doorway while I’m picking out the lock. Not a key to your apartment, just the one behind your smile, Got you trying not to stare, but you’ve been staring for a while. Gold lights, cold night, perfume in the air, You keep finding little reasons just to stand beside my chair. I say, “Looking for a present?” You say, “Maybe, what’ve you got?” I say, “Something unpredictable.” You say, “I like that a lot.” Don’t confuse the pretty ribbon with a promise I’ll behave, I’m a spark beneath the snowfall, not a candle you can save. And the closer that you’re standing, the more dangerous the game, ‘Cause you’re looking at the package, but you haven’t read the name. [Pre-Chorus — Breathy Melodic Build] Pull the ribbon, take your time, There’s a secret underneath the shine. One more step, the room goes quiet, You know you wanna try it. [Chorus — Hypnotic, Seductive Pop Hook] Wrapped in trouble, tied in red, Got a little danger dancing in your head. Untie the bow, but take it slow, You don’t know how far this night could go. Wrapped in trouble, sweet surprise, Little bit of mischief in my eyes. Underneath the Christmas lights, You could be my favorite mistake tonight. [Post-Chorus — Deep Bouncing Bass, Whispered Vocal Chops] Unwrap, unwrap, Tell me what you think of that. Red bow, black lace, Can’t forget this pretty face. Unwrap, unwrap, No, you can’t take it back. One touch, double trouble, Baby, I’m wrapped in trouble. [Verse 2 — Rapid-Fire, Teasing Trap-Rap] Tick-tick, ribbon slip, little silver scissors, Got you caught between a warning and a thousand little shivers. Velvet on the staircase, glitter on the ceiling, You’re pretending you’re collected but I know exactly what you’re feeling. No instruction manual, no exchange, no guarantee, I don’t come with batteries, I run on chemistry. Not a decoration, not a toy upon your shelf, If you want to get to know me, better show me who you are yourself. Fast talk, slow dance, snow against the glass, Everybody’s disappearing as the party starts to pass. You say, “Are you always trouble?” I say, “Only when I’m bored,” Then you laugh and take my hand like you’re ready for some more. Little bit of sugar, little bit of gasoline, Little bit of heaven in a very wicked scene. Got you guessing, second-guessing, losing count of all the clues, But the only thing I’m asking is what you’re prepared to choose. [Pre-Chorus — Layered Whispered Harmonies] Pull the ribbon, take your time, There’s a secret underneath the shine. One more step, the room goes quiet, You know you wanna try it. [Chorus — Full Dark Christmas Trap-Pop] Wrapped in trouble, tied in red, Got a little danger dancing in your head. Untie the bow, but take it slow, You don’t know how far this night could go. Wrapped in trouble, sweet surprise, Little bit of mischief in my eyes. Underneath the Christmas lights, You could be my favorite mistake tonight. [Bridge — Minimal Piano, Intimate Spoken Vocals] You know what I love about Christmas? The anticipation. All those beautiful little boxes… And nobody knows what’s inside. (Pause) Wanna find out? [Soft Laugh — Bass Builds] [Final Rap — Fast, Confident, Playful Delivery] Red ribbon, gold glitter, midnight getting closer, Every little secret makes the winter feel warmer. No games without a choice, no promises to keep, Just a little stolen moment while the city’s fast asleep. Sleigh bells, heartbeats, everything’s electric, Got a little chemistry that’s wonderfully reckless. If you like a little mystery with your Christmas celebration, Come and meet the girl who needs no introduction or explanation! [Final Chorus — Euphoric, Layered Female Vocals] WRAPPED IN TROUBLE, TIED IN RED! Got a little danger dancing in your head! Untie the bow, but take it slow, You don’t know how far this night could go! Wrapped in trouble, sweet surprise, Little bit of mischief in my eyes. Underneath the Christmas lights, You could be my favorite mistake tonight! [Final Post-Chorus — Hypnotic Bass Drop] Unwrap, unwrap, Tell me what you think of that. Red bow, black lace, Can’t forget this pretty face. Unwrap, unwrap, No, you can’t take it back. One touch, double trouble, Baby, I’m wrapped in trouble. [Outro — Music Box, Whispered] Careful with the ribbon, baby. It’s designer. (Zyra.)
