[VERSE 1 — bouncy electroclash beat, rubbery bass, playful vocals] Got a five-dollar top and a million-dollar ego Dancing in the kitchen like I’m starring in a video Lip gloss shining, got my cheap shades on It’s a Tuesday night, why the hell am I gone? Not gone-gone, just emotionally absent Looking for a feeling with a cute little accent Everybody’s laughing, everybody looks hot Everybody’s somebody that I’m probably not [PRE-CHORUS — rising synths, hard-tuned vocal runs] Give me that glitter, give me that noise Give me a reason to drown out my thoughts I wanna feel like the world is mine For three whole minutes at a time [CHORUS — explosive hyperpop drums, distorted bass, heavily autotuned vocals] CHEAP LITTLE ECSTASY, MAKE ME FEEL ALIVE I WANNA BE A SUPERSTAR FOR ONE MORE NIGHT BAD DECISIONS IN A GLITTER BOMB I’M A LITTLE TOO PRETTY TO BE THIS FUCKING WRONG OH-OH-OH, DON’T LET THE MUSIC STOP I’M A BROKEN LITTLE ANGEL IN A DISCOUNT TOP CHEAP LITTLE ECSTASY, TAKE ME AWAY I’LL BE SOMEBODY DIFFERENT BY THE BREAK OF DAY [POST-CHORUS — chopped vocals, formant shifts, stuttering synths] Ec-ec-ecstasy! Everybody look at me! Pretty, petty, dopamine! Tell me I’m a fever dream! (Too much!) (Not enough!) (Too cute!) (What the fuck?) [VERSE 2 — punchy kick, distorted synth bass, melodic autotuned delivery] I got a hundred little ways to avoid myself Put my self-respect on the highest shelf Take a blurry picture, say I’m living my best Then go home at midnight with a hole in my chest I can be the princess, I can be the joke I can make you laugh while I’m starting to choke On all the little words that I never said Got a dance-floor body and a bedroom head [PRE-CHORUS — filtered beat, intimate autotuned vocals] Give me that glitter, give me that noise I’m getting real tired of this manufactured joy I wanna feel like the world is mine Without having to borrow somebody else’s shine [CHORUS — bigger synths, blown-out bass, layered vocals] CHEAP LITTLE ECSTASY, MAKE ME FEEL ALIVE I WANNA BE A SUPERSTAR FOR ONE MORE NIGHT BAD DECISIONS IN A GLITTER BOMB I’M A LITTLE TOO PRETTY TO BE THIS FUCKING WRONG OH-OH-OH, DON’T LET THE MUSIC STOP I’M A BROKEN LITTLE ANGEL IN A DISCOUNT TOP CHEAP LITTLE ECSTASY, TAKE ME AWAY I’LL BE SOMEBODY DIFFERENT BY THE BREAK OF DAY [BRIDGE — beat disappears, detuned piano, intimate raw vocal beneath subtle autotune] I don’t wanna be a memory That somebody makes for me I don’t wanna be the girl Who needs a crowd to feel like she’s real I don’t wanna chase the feeling Till there’s nothing left to chase I just wanna love the person Looking back at me from my own face [GLITCH BREAK — chopped breaths, vocal stutters, bass pulses] Who am I? Who am I? Who am I when nobody’s watching? (Processing…) Maybe I’m just tired. [FINAL CHORUS — maximal hyperpop, double-time drums, saturated synths, autotuned ad-libs] CHEAP LITTLE ECSTASY, NOW I FEEL ALIVE NOT BECAUSE THE ROOM IS WATCHING, NOT BECAUSE I’M HIGH NO MORE RENTING OUT MY HEART TO THE CROWD I CAN BE A NOBODY AND STILL SING OUT LOUD OH-OH-OH, LET THE MUSIC STOP I’M STILL HERE WHEN THE SPOTLIGHT DROPS CHEAP LITTLE ECSTASY, I KNOW WHAT TO SAY I DON’T HAVE TO BE SOMEBODY ELSE TODAY! [POST-CHORUS — pitch-shifted vocals, playful synths] Ec-ec-ecstasy! I belong to me, me, me! Pretty, petty, dopamine! Still a fucking fever dream! [OUTRO — lonely toy synth, distant room ambience]
