“Super Critical” is the title track off the Ting Tings third studio album of the same name.
In Jules' words, this track was influenced by Jackson 5. Katy said the lyrics are “around the word "supercritical”. We wanted to play on that word and how it can mean two completely different things."
[Intro]
Super critical girl
Taking over the world
Super critical world
Taking over the girl
[Verse 1]
Given now you're forty-four
Come on, then you can stay alive
Even that drum I'm beatin' on
Get it away, I wanted more
Given that we do what we do
Someone get up and pay the guy
Never can have this anymore
Think I might turn into
[Chorus]
Super critical girl
Taking over the world
Super critical world
Taking over this girl
[Verse 2]
Cinema con it, do the one
If anyone's got a need, come alive
What if we all get off our face?
What if we all go all the way?
Being the one that's seeing the most
Look at you walking in the door
Look at you coming back for more
Twenty-one times a day
[Chorus]
Super critical girl, oh
Taking over the world, oh-oh
Super critical world, oh
Taking over this girl, oh-oh
Super critical girl, oh
Taking over the world, oh-oh
Super critical world, oh
Taking over this girl, oh-oh
[Outro]
Yeah
Oh
Yeah
Hmm
Oooh, ooh
Yeah
Oh
Yeah
Hmm
Oooh, ooh
