[Intro: Poppy & Grimes]
It's Grimes
I'm Poppy
Let's go
(Destroy)
[Chorus: Poppy & Grimes]
This is how we play
This is how we play destroy (Play destroy)
Gonna cut your face
And break your favorite toy
Drop a match in the gas tank
Blow up your neighbor's pool
Oh, boy
I love to play destroy
[Breakdown]
Mhm, mhm
Oh, boy, boy, b-boy
Mhm (Destroy)
Mhm
[Verse: Poppy & Grimes]
This is how we play
This is how we play destroy (Play destroy)
Manipulate the girls
Indoctrinate the boys
Burn down the local Walmart
Monsanto, Raytheon
[Chorus: Poppy & Grimes]
Oh, boy
I love to play destroy
I love to play destroy
Play destroy
Drop a match in the gas tank
Blow up your neighbor's pool
Oh, boy
I love to play destroy
[Bridge: Poppy & Grimes]
Poppy, I'm dying
It's a Hollywood moment
Destroy, destroy, destroy
Destroy, destroy, destroy
It's time to die
Uh
This is how we play destroy-troy
[Chorus: Poppy & Grimes]
This is how we play
This is how we play destroy (Play destroy)
Gonna cut your face
And break your favorite toy
Drop a match in the gas tank
Blow up your neighbor's pool
Oh, boy
Oh, oh, boy
[Outro: Poppy & Grimes]
I love to play destroy
Play destroy
Burn down the local Walmart
Monsanto, Raytheon
Oh, boy
I love to play destroy
I love to play destroy
