Change Shapes

[Verse 1]
It's exhausting trying so hard all the time
Performative hypocrisy took over my mind
I'm a doll inside a box
With a ball and chain
I bend over backwards, tiptoe along every wire
I 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

[Pre-Chorus]
(Ah)
And I think you should know

[Chorus]
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, ah-ah)
I change shapes 'til I get what I need from you
We're all snakes, but what else is a girl supposеd to do?
I change shapes, but you nevеr do (Ooh)

[Verse 2]
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
When you're dead and dumb
It's a precaution, playing a smile on a loop
Specific choreography for jumping through hoops
I'm a masochistic martyr
Who wants to turn the screw

[Pre-Chorus]
(Ah, ah, ah, ah-ah-ah)
And I think you should know

[Chorus]
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, 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)

[Bridge]
I've been foolish, but you fooled me twice
Wonder what would happen if I wasn't playing nice
So now I'm running, gonna roll that dice
Wonder what would happen if you changed
Yeah, right
(Ooh, ah-ah)
(Ooh, ah-ah)

[Chorus]
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, 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)
