Description
An awkward confession in pop-cadre format: the desire to be needed mixed with a slight possessiveness and a loud ‘non-negotiable’. Here there is a list of names as if written in haste, the smell of perfume on the pillow, and a black widow's web in the corner - intimate chaos on a minimalist scale. The chorus is like a mantra, sometimes joking ‘eeny meeny,’ sometimes threatening ‘well at least you're mine now.’ A little bit of madness, a little bit of pride, a little bit of dramatic comedy - all of it sounds coquettishly bold. For those evenings when you want to be desirable and a little bit dangerous at the same time.
Lyrics and translation
Original
I wanna be what you need
Get down on both of your knees
Beg me to stay, I want you to pray
That I'll be your wife and we'll build a life
How 'bout a couple of kids?
Maybe you're writing a list
Sally, Suzy, Jackie, sue me
I just want someone to miss
Me
Me
Me
I don't wanna be your eeny, meeny, miny, moe
I hope you understand that I'm a non-negotiable
Bowl, strike out, wipe out
Well, at least you're mine now (mine now)
Oh, spray my perfume on your pillow
I'm crawling out of your window
Like the black widow that I saw in the corner of your room
I don't know what to do
I think that I'm going psycho
Might go throw up this whole song like
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah
I don't wanna be your eeny, meeny, miny, moe
I hope you understand that I'm a non-negotiable
Bowl, strike out, wipe out
Well, at least you're mine now (mine now)
Maybe I'm crazy
Maybe I don't care
You had me on the floor, ripping out my hair
Like a crazy bitch, baddie
Honestly, don't see the difference
Maybe I just need deliverance
Heard the doctor call it limerence
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah
I don't wanna be your eeny, meeny, miny, moe
I hope you understand that I'm a non-negotiable
Bowl, strike out, wipeout
Well, at least you're mine now (mine now)
I don't wanna be your eeny, meeny, miny, moe
I hope you understand that I'm a non-negotiable
Bowl, strike out, wipeout
Well, at least you're mine now (mine now)
