[Verse 1]
Tailored suit, sharp chin
Three phones, one grin
Boardroom queen, heels click
I sign my name, I get my pick
Late-night deals, black coffee
No one tells me what I ought to be
I build the door, I set the price
I cut through glass like it’s nothing nice
[Pre-Chorus]
But when the room goes quiet
I want a hand that knows
How to stop my runaway
How to make me fold
[Chorus]
Put me in my place
Say my name like you mean it
Make me wait, make me shake
Then come close and keep it
I run the day
But I crave that little danger
Put me in my place
Baby, pull me under, stranger
[Verse 2]
Clean white desk, red lip stain
I don’t blink when they call my name
Cash in hand, blood-red nails
I leave my mark on the paper trails
I like control, I wear it well
But there’s a side I never tell
I want a man with steady eyes
Who can read through all my lies
[Pre-Chorus]
Not to break me
Just to bend me right
When I’m all steel spine
I need fire in the night
[Chorus]
Put me in my place
Say my name like you mean it
Make me wait, make me shake
Then come close and keep it
I run the day
But I crave that little danger
Put me in my place
Baby, pull me under, stranger
[Bridge]
Take the crown off slow
Set it on the chair
Pin my wrists with patience
Show me you are there
I’m not lost
I’m just tired of being first
Hold that line with me
Make the hunger hurt
[Final Chorus]
Put me in my place
Say my name like you mean it
Make me wait, make me shake
Then come close and keep it
I run the day
But I crave that little danger
Put me in my place
Baby, pull me under, stranger
[Outro]
Boss in the light
Soft in your hands
I don’t need to win
I need to understand (put me in my place)
