Lies

[Intro – funky guitar lick + handclaps]
Ooh, yeah—
You like the shine, don’t ya?

⸻

[Verse 1]
Late night, my perfume loud,
You talk slick but I draw a crowd.
Pink gloss, heart-shaped crime,
You sip slow — I steal your time.

⸻

[Pre-Chorus]
You’re talkin’ smooth, boy, that’s cute,
But your lips can’t keep the truth.
I spin sugar, I sell thrill,
You want me? I want the thrill.

⸻

[Chorus – infectious, rhythmic bounce]
Why you lookin’ at me like that? (uh-huh)
Don’t you know I bite right back?
Say you love me — that’s a lie,
Baby, read my lips tonight.
Lip gloss lies — sweet alibi,
You fall once, you won’t ask why.
Don’t you know I don’t play nice?
I look good — and I don’t apologize. 💅

⸻

[Verse 2]
Cherry tint and sugar tease,
You drop your guard — I set you free.
I don’t chase, I don’t cry,
Love’s just art in real time.

⸻

[Pre-Chorus 2]
You want real? That’s too tame,
I make sparks forget their name.
You say “please,” I say “maybe,”
You can’t cage a lady.

⸻

[Chorus – repeat, brighter]
Why you lookin’ at me like that? (oh yeah)
Don’t you know I bite right back?
Say you love me — that’s a lie,
Baby, read my lips tonight.
Lip gloss lies — sweet alibi,
You fall once, you won’t ask why.
Don’t you know I don’t play nice?
I look good — and I don’t apologize.

⸻

[Bridge – talk-sing sass + funky breakdown]
Gloss like honey, shine like sin,
You’ll come back, I’ll let you in.
Mirror, mirror — tell the truth,
They all want a taste of proof.

(bass solo + clap riff)

⸻

[Final Chorus – stacked harmonies, ad-libs, pure sparkle]
Oh, you lookin’ at me like that (uh-huh),
Don’t you know I bite right back?
Say you love me — that’s a lie,
Baby, read my lips tonight!
Lip gloss lies — sweet alibi,
You fall fast, you don’t ask why.
Don’t you know I don’t play nice?
I look good — and I don’t apologize.

(fade out with “uh-huh” ad-libs and funky bass)
