[Verse 1]
When you talk and everybody listens
Then you walk and everybody whispers
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you know you got it
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you're so hypnotic
Yeah, yeah, you dance like everybody's watching
[Chorus]
You can be pretty vicious
I guess that nobody gets you like I do
I know you too well, but I'm under your spell
'Cause you're pretty, pretty, pretty
Yeah, you can be pretty vicious
I know you love it 'cause I see what you do
Hold on to myself but I'm under your spell
'Cause you're pretty, pretty, pretty
[Post-Chorus]
Pretty vicious (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
You're pretty, you're pretty, p-p-pretty vicious (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
You're pretty, you're pretty, p-p-pretty vicious
[Verse 2]
When you talk, it's like you're from a vision
When you walk, everybody just stares, ah
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you know you got it
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you're so hypnotic
Yeah, yeah, you dance like everybody's watching
[Chorus]
You can be pretty vicious
I guess that nobody gets you like I do
I know you too well, but I'm under your spell
'Cause you're pretty, pretty, pretty
Yeah, you can be pretty vicious
I know you love it 'cause I see what you do
Hold on to myself but I'm under your spell
'Cause you're pretty, pretty, pretty
[Post-Chorus]
Pretty vicious (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
You're pretty, you're pretty, p-p-pretty vicious (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
You're pretty, you're pretty, p-p-pretty vicious
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you know you got it
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you're so hypnotic
Yeah, yeah, you dance like everybody's watching
[Chorus]
You can be pretty vicious
I know you love it 'cause I see what you do
Hold on to myself but I'm under your spell
'Cause you're pretty, pretty, pretty
Yeah, you can be retty vicious
I know you love it, I see what you do
Hold on to myself, under your spell
You're pretty, yeah, you're pretty
[Outro]
Pretty vicious (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
Oh, yeah, pretty vicious (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
Woo, yeah, pretty vicious
Oh, oh, oh, pretty vicious
Yeah, ooh-ooh (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
Oh, yeah, pretty vicious (Ah-ah-ah-ah)

Luke Spiller:
Those lyrics were very instinctual. They aren’t super clever, but they felt right. It’s more about the vocal delivery. That’s what makes it dark and sexy. It’s not overthought. It felt great from the moment we started to write it. It was a completely instant track.
