Quotable Lyrics:
You bad as hell, I treat you well, I will
It’s good, I can tell, come give me hell, come here (Come give me hell)
Your fairytale, under your spell, I am (Oh)
She get Chanel, oh, when it all—
I guess I done ran out of options
Can’t keep fantasizin’, oh-oh
I’m callin’ you so we can lock in
But you call me toxic
You make it easy for me to believe in your lovin’ (Ooh)
You better believe it, ’cause, baby, I’m leavin’ with something (Ooh)
Girl, it’s better than the d**k you had before
Smiling ’cause you know I know you know (Oh)
You bad as hell, I treat you well, I will
It’s good, I can tell, come give me hell, come here
Your fairytale, under your spell, I am
She get Chanel, oh, when it all depends (Oh yeah, baby)
You screaming “Yeah”, can’t call for help from here (No)
You leaving welts, I feel your nails, for real
I eat you good, you sleepin’ good, for real
I freak you well, I freak you well, I will
