[English]

Baby, you got something in your nose

Sniffing that K, did you feel the hole?

Hope you find peace for yourself

New boyfriend ain't gon' fill the void

Do you even really like this track?

Take away the drugs, would you feel the noise?

More and more you try to run away

You fucking yourself, do you feel the toy?

Uh, looking for a bitch 'cause I'm over boys

Would you be my girlfriend, baby?

Ooh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

Something turned me off, smoking made me–

...

'Cause I, I'm longing

For something secure

If you had to (if you) stunt your shining (no, no, no)

For your lover, dump that fucker

Shoo-doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo

Shoo-doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo

Shoo-doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo

Shoo-doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo, mmh

...
