[Verse 1]
How can I help you feel better about you?
How can I help you do that is that you
Always hoped you could set out to prove?
'Cause that's what I do, 'cause that's what I'm put here to do
Isn't it? Isn't it you? Wasn't it you, though?
Want me eternally youthful, never grow old
I'll always be wet, always be up for it
Politely sit, but I don't know shit
Do I? I don't know shit
And that's how you life with it
[Chorus]
I don't know shit
(I don't know shit, I don't know shit, I don't know shit)
(I don't know shit, I don't know shit, I don't know shit)
(I don't know shit, I don't know—)
[Verse 2]
My current lover tells me to turn over, doesn't look into my eyes
And I think that's cool, though
'Cause then he won't see how much apathy I have inside
And I've got another, we don't know each other
But that's no bother as you have your babies
I'm going crazy, feeling sеcondary
(Eh-eh, eh-eh, еh-eh)
[Chorus]
(I don't know shit, I don't know shit, I don't know shit)
(I don't know shit, I don't know shit, I don't know shit)
(I don't know shit, I don't know shit, I don't know shit)
(I don't know shit, I don't know shit, I don't know shit)
(I don't know shit, I don't know shit, I don't know shit)
(I don't know shit)
[Verse 3]
Over rewarded
Surrounded by over rewarded and easily praised
'Cause aren't you a good boy?
Got your perfect life while nothing ever stood in your way
I am a God? I am a king? I never wrote a single thing
Now I'm the enemy 'cause you all made a queen of me
[Chorus]
I don't know shit, I don't know shit, I don't know shit
I don't know shit, I don't know shit, I don't know shit
I don't know shit, I don't know shit, I don't know shit
I don't know shit, I don't know shit, I don't know shit
I don't know shit, I don't know shit, I don't know shit
I don't know shit
[Outro]
And you treat me like a chore
As I'm falling at your door
Asking for forgiveness
What I'll do forever more
You treat me like a chore
As I'm falling at your door
Asking for forgiveness
What I'll do forever more

“How Can I Help You” is one of the first songs I wrote for the second album. After touring the first record and most weeks being told that I am underrated or intimidating I just felt very fed up. I guess I’ll be eternally angry for the way as a woman unless you’re sweet, nice, settled, and quiet, yo...
I wanted to play the drums in the video to reclaim how often I used to feel self-conscious playing them. The physical act of a woman playing a drum means your tits move – all I ever wanted to do was play but it always came with this fear of being looked at in that way. Now my tits move for me, my so...
‘Black Skinhead’ was something we were going for in mood. Everything comes back to Kanye production every time we’re stuck. It’s a weird song but I’m a punk at my core. I love pop but I cut my teeth playing in a lot of punk bands. It’s a little nod to the tapestry of me and my music. Being a woman i...
