[Intro: Alice Chater]
Loaded gun, that's how she feels
Hard as stone, she aims to kill
She hides her fears and burns it all
You can't get even, you'll be lost
[Chorus: Alice Chater]
I'm saying, hey, Lola
She can get a little jealous, oh, loca
She can be a drama, but her soul is pure
Drowns in tears, but keeps on shining
Just keep on shining
Oh, Lola, Lola, hey
[Verse 1: Iggy Azalea]
I love drama and rumors
I like talking my shit
Can't stop cuttin' people off
Get my scissors, lil' bitch
I just keep laughin' at your pain, no Novocaine
Need a padded room and chains, I'm out my brain
Might need a straitjacket
'Cause all my thoughts are doin' backflips
Look, I'm pretty, I'm petty, I pop like confetti
'Cause shit can get deadly, so don't make me jelly
I been on my worse, I let bridges burn
You hoes never learn, you scared, go to church
Don't open your mouth, I'm a jawbreaker
Been in car chases, I'm a lawbreaker
I'm insane, might regret it later
But don't you love my bad behavior? (Yeah)
[Pre-Chorus: Iggy Azalea & Alice Chater]
You love how I hold grudges
Might throw some punches
But you're not judgin', I'm your psycho
You love how I talk crazy, then call you "Baby"
No, you can't tame me, I'm your type though
[Chorus: Alice Chater]
I'm saying, hey, Lola
She can get a little jealous, oh, loca
She can be a drama, but her soul is pure
Drowns in tears, but keeps on shining
Just keep on shining
Oh, Lola, Lola, hey, Lola
She can get a little jealous, oh, loca
She can be a drama, but her soul is pure
Drowns in tears, but keeps on shining
Just keep on shining
Oh, Lola, Lola, hey
[Verse 2: Iggy Azalea]
I'm a angel and a demon
Happy when I act the meanest
I think like all my nights are sleepless
This feels like paradise and dreamin'
He said, "Lola, girl, you're evil''
Well, maybe you the reason
If I'm alive, it's killing season
Might choke you 'til you're barely breathin'
Look, I'm loca, la vida loca, no controlla
I'm colder than Nova Scotia, Minnesota
Ain't sober, don't get me started
Got a motor, my motive is bipolar, thought I told ya
Cutthroat, yeah, I'm hard to handle
Got a short fuse, don't light my candle
Might tell a lie just to start a scandal
I'm a loose cannon with a lot of ammo (Yeah)
[Pre-Chorus: Iggy Azalea & Alice Chater]
You love how I hold grudges
Might throw some punches
But you're not judgin', I'm your psycho
You love how I talk crazy, then call you "Baby"
No, you can't tame me, I'm your type though
[Chorus: Alice Chater]
I'm saying, hey, Lola
She can get a little jealous, oh, loca
She can be a drama, but her soul is pure
Drowns in tears, but keeps on shining
Just keep on shining
Oh, Lola, Lola, hey, Lola
She can get a little jealous, oh, loca
She can be a drama, but her soul is pure
Drowns in tears, but keeps on shining
Just keep on shining
Oh, Lola, Lola, hey
[Bridge: Alice Chater & Iggy Azalea]
Lola, I don't blame you
I'm the same as you
Just don't let 'em change you
Or tighten up your screws
Yeah, I'ma do it my way or the highway
Lookin' at you sideways in a valet
Always thought the wrong way was the right way
Like to see my side piece on a Sunday
Na na na, slow down, slow down
La la la, my playground, playground
Yeah, I'ma do it my way or the highway
Lookin' at you sideways in a valet
Always thought the wrong way was the right way
Like to see my side piece on a Sunday, yeah
[Chorus: Alice Chater]
I'm saying, hey, Lola
She can get a little jealous, oh, loca
She can be a drama, but her soul is pure
Drowns in tears, but keeps on shining
Just keep on shining
Oh, Lola, Lola, hey, Lola (Oh)
She can get a little jealous, oh, loca
She can be a drama, but her soul is pure
Drowns in tears, but keeps on shining (Oh)
Just keep on shining
Oh, Lola, Lola

On her Instagram teaser for Lola, she wrote back to a user, saying:
the song is not written about my niece. it’s a song about being moody/having lots of different personalities. She just served as the inspiration for the name because baby’s are very moody too. As for the pills, music videos are abo...
When asked the same question by a fan on Twitter, Iggy responded with:
because the only other person i know who acts as erratic and moody as i do is my 3 month old niece, lola.
When asked about what the pills in her teaser for “Lola” meant, Iggy explained that the capsule pill visually symbolises duality, which is a subject matter featured on both the song and music video.
The capsule pill interested me because visually it has an element of duality. I play with duality a...
