Lyrics
It's exhausting, tryin' so hard all the time
Performative hypocrisy took over my mind
I'm a doll inside a box with a ball and a chain
I bend over backwards, tiptoe along every wire
Guess I'm quite the actress, no one knows I'm a liar
I'm preaching to the choir, I'm a body for hire
And I think you should know
I change shapes 'til I get what I want from you
It's your game, now, you're mad that I learned the rules
I change shapes, I change shapes for you
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ah-ah, ah-ah
I change shapes 'til I get what I need from you
We're all snakes, but what else is a girl supposed to do?
I change shapes, but you never do
Ooh
It makes me nauseous waiting for slips of the tongue
God, I know you love it when you're eating your young
It's a really bad habit, playing dead and dumb
It's a precaution, playing a smile on a loop
Specific choreography for jumping through hoops
I'm a masochist, a martyr, who won't stop turning the screw
(Ah-ah) and I think you should know
I change shapes 'til I get what I want from you
It's your game, now, you're mad that I learned the rules
I change shapes, I change shapes for you
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ah, ah-ah
I change shapes 'til I get what I need from you
We're all snakes, but what else is a girl supposed to do?
I change shapes, but you never do
Ooh-ooh-ooh
I've been foolish, let you fool me twice
Wonder what would happen if you learned to play nice
So now, I'm running, gonna roll that dice
I wonder what would happen if you changed
Yeah, right
I change shapes 'til I get what I want from you
It's your game, now, you're mad that I learned the rules
I change shapes, I change shapes for you
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ah-ah, ah-ah
I change shapes 'til I get what I need from you
We're all snakes, but what else is a girl supposed to do?
I change shapes, but you never do
