“Problématique” serves as the opening and title track from Kim Petras' album, Problématique.
While being speculated among fans that the song’s lyrical content would be about why she is considered problematic, the song doesn’t directly mention any reasons why Petras would be seen as that.
[Intro: Chloe Angelides & Alex Chapman]
"That's cool... Hey, do you listen to Kim Petras?"
"Um, isn't she like, problematic?"
"No, she's problématique!" (Aah, woo!)
[Verse]
Queen of my castle and I ain't ever comin' down
Love it or hate it, you can't keep it out your mouth
My love infectious, they all wanna mess around
(Mmh-hnm, yeah; mmh-hmm)
Sweeter than candy, I know that you wanna try
Cocky, can't stop me, I got everything you like
My love infectious and you wanna take a bite
(Mmh-hnm, yeah; mmh-hmm)
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm a little bit dramatic
Little real, a little plastic
I just keep on wreaking havoc, uh
[Chorus]
Get up, up on your feet (Up on your feet)
Yeah, she's so problématique (Problématique)
Get up, up on your feet (Up on your feet), wooh-wooh
She's so problématique, problématique, yеah
Get up, up on your feet
(I know you like it, like it) Woo
Shе's so problématique
(I know you like it, like it) Wooh-wooh
Get up, up on your feet
(I know you want it, want it) Uh-huh
She's so problématique, problématique (Woo)
[Bridge]
It's alright, what you like
Get up, up and get down
Every night, live it right
Get up, up and get down
It's alright, what you like
Get up, up and get down
Every night, live it right
Get up, up and get down
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm a little bit dramatic
Little real, a little plastic
I just keep on wreaking havoc, ah
[Chorus]
Get up, up on your feet (Up on your feet)
Yeah, she's so problématique (Problématique)
Get up, up on your feet (Up on your feet), wooh-wooh
She's so problématique, problématique, yeah
Get up, up on your feet
(I know you like it, like it) Woo
She's so problématique
(I know you like it, like it) Wooh-wooh
Get up, up on your feet
(I know you want it, want it) Uh-huh
She's so problématique, problématique (Woo)
[Outro]
(On your feet)
Get up
Get up, get up
(On your feet)
(Problématique)
(On your feet)
Get up
Get up, get up
(On your feet)
(Problématique)
That's cool
