[Chorus: Shoffy]
Oh, it's tricky 'cause I want her
But she's always with another
And I know I should probably let her go
But I know if I do, she'll be back at my door
[Verse 1: Shoffy]
She tricky, she tricky, she knows it, yeah
Her game lately ain't really fair
We're up and down like a rollercoaster
Try to end it but it's never over
What do you want from me?
I'm about to go crazy (Yeah)
[Pre-Chorus: Shoffy]
Tiptoeing on a tightrope
A step away from a wrong note
[Chorus: Shoffy, Sabrina Carpenter, Both]
Oh, it's tricky 'cause I want her
But she's always with another
And I know I should probably let her go
But I know if I do, she'll be back at my door
Oh, it's tricky (Oh) 'cause I need her
But the grass is always greener
And I know I should probably let her go
But I know if I do, she'll be back at my door
[Verse 2: Sabrina Carpenter]
He tricky, he tricky, he's hard to read
Nothing with him's ever concrete
Mmm, every time I think we got the time
Is it a sign that we keep missin' the signs?
Now you got me acting all crazy
Thinking that you're gonna wait for me
[Pre-Chorus: Sabrina Carpenter]
Tiptoeing on a tightrope
A step away from a wrong note
[Chorus: Shoffy, Sabrina Carpenter, Both]
Oh, it's tricky 'cause I want her
But she's always with another
And I know I should probably let her go
But I know if I do, she'll be back at my door
Oh, it's tricky (Tricky), 'cause I need her ('Cause I need him)
But the grass is (But the grass is) always greener (Always greener)
And I know I should probably let her go (Oh)
But I know if I do, she'll be back at my door
[Bridge: Sabrina Carpenter & Shoffy, Shoffy]
I'm hooked on you
Oh, what to do?
I know that I am falling
I'm lost for words
It's so absurd
Our kind of situation
I'm hooked on you
Oh, what to do?
I know that I am falling
I'm lost for words
It's so absurd
Our kind of situation
[Chorus: Shoffy, Sabrina Carpenter, Both]
Oh, it's tricky (It's tricky) 'cause I want her (I want her)
But she's always (She's always) with another (With another)
And I know I should probably let her go (Let her go)
But I know if I do she’ll be back at my door
Oh, it's tricky (She tricky) 'cause I need her (I need her)
But the grass (The grass is) is always greener (Always greener)
And I know I should probably let her go (Let her go)
But I know if I do she'll be back at my door
[Outro: Shoffy]
She tricky
I need her
The grass is
Always greener, always greener, always greener
Tricky was written by Shoffy & Sabrina Carpenter & Jake Torrey.
Tricky was produced by Shoffy & Sam Farrar & Bram Inscore.
Shoffy:
I have been a huge fan of Sabrina’s for a while now and knew she would be the perfect feature for Tricky. The stars aligned, and I’m so happy they did. Sabrina sounds incredible on the record and recording it with her in the studio was so effortless and fun. We wrote her part and cut her vo...
On what it was like working with her on the song and if it came naturally to Shoffy:
A lot of fun. She was really amazing to work with and down to earth. We had a couple sessions in the studio and I recorded her vocals. My team sent her the song and she was excited to a be a part of it – so we got...
