[Verse 1]
Sexting you at the mental health talk seems counterproductive
Drinking a bottle instead of a glass is me, I'm a classic
The simplicity of me leaning back, so you see my waist flex
Is a signature move
Don't think it's for you, it's part of the process
[Pre-Chorus]
And while figure out what it is that you are made of
I'll move on in a moment
And I don't mean to
This has got nothing to do with you
It's always been my problem, my problem
[Chorus]
Oh, M-O-O-D-Y
You know I-I-I'll be moody for life
M-O-O-D-Y
You know I-I-I'll be moody for life
[Verse 2]
Many have tried to bottle and screw you into tick boxes
We're looking across rooms admiring the view
We know we're attractive
There's nothing else to do
Yet every night spent this way is destructive
Inevitable truth of accepting you is what the next task is
[Pre-Chorus]
And while figure out what it is that you are made of
I'll move on in a moment
And I don't mean to
This has got nothing to do with you
It's always been my problem, my problem
[Chorus]
Oh, M-O-O-D-Y
You know I-I-I'll be moody for life
M-O-O-D-Y
You know I-I-I'll be moody for life
[Bridge]
M (M)-O (O)-O (O-D-Y)
You (You) know (Know) why
M (M)-O (O)-O (O-D-Y)
You (You) know (Know) why
[Chorus]
M-O-O-D-Y
You know I-I-I'll be moody for life (It's up to you if you want to try)
M-O-O-D-Y
You know I-I-I'll be moody for life (It's up to you if you want to try)
M-O-O-D-Y
You know I-I-I'll be moody for life (It's up to you if you want to try)
M-O-O-D-Y
You know I-I-I'll be moody for life (It's up to you if you want to)

“Moody” is a song about reclaiming being a moody cow. My whole life I’ve been referred to as mardy (northern for moody) but lately I’ve been realising as a woman in this world, especially as a woman in the music industry, of fucking course I’m moody! It’s such a slog even getting heard, every day sh...
I’ve always wanted to make a version of Rihanna’s “We Found Love” but a more realistic representation of a relationship. Music video tropes are so fun and easy to execute and I’ve spent a lifetime trying to avoid them, but I wondered what happens if I just indulge in them. There is nothing more inev...
I loved the keyboard sound and Johan [Karlberg, producer] just smashed a loop out. I had the lyric ‘Sexting you at the mental health talk seems counterproductive’ for ages so I put that in and that set the tone of what I wanted to write about. Spelling-out pop choruses are always L-O-V-E or whatever...
