[Verse 1: Allie X]
Susie needs a ride
She's way too drunk to drive
But, oh, she’s such a sight to see
Marshall is the problem
She's been trying to solve him
Someone needs to set her free
[Pre-Chorus: Allie X]
Oh no, she's waiting for no one
Hold on, hold on, I’m a block away
[Chorus: Allie X]
Save your love for someone like me
You don't have to be a part-time
Susie, save your love, and take mine from me
(Ah, ah, ah, Susie)
You don't have to be a part-time, save your love
[Post-Chorus: Allie X]
Susie, save your love
[Verse 2: Mitski]
Susie's riding shotgun
Saying that I'm no fun
Says she's not ready to sleep
Marshall makes her angry
So, she's tryna make me
Drive her up and down his street
[Pre-Chorus: Mitski]
Oh no, she's waiting for no one
Hold on, hold on, we’re a block away
[Chorus: Allie X & Mitski, Allie X]
Save your love for someone like me
You don’t have to be a part-time
Susie, save your love, and take mine from me
(Ah, ah, ah, Susie)
You don't have to be a part-time, save your love
[Outro: Allie X, Mitski & Both]
Save your love, your love, your love, your love, your love
(Ah, ah) Susie, save your love
Ooh, ooh
(Ah, ah) Susie, save your love
(Ah, ah) Susie, save your love
(Ah, ah) Susie, save your love
Save, save, save your love
(Ah, ah) Save your love
Save, save, save, your love

I discovered Mitski’s music a couple of years ago and was instantly smitten. She has such a singular voice—it was so authentic, so sad, so relatable. Mitski’s taking a break from the music industry at the moment—she’s not on social media, she’s not touring. And so when I asked her to sing on the tra...
Susie was one of the few songs written before my first trip to Stockholm, where we wrote FL, RAB, and Regulars which became the foundation that Cape God was built upon. I was introduced to Mitski’s record Puberty 2 by @natecampany (on the day we wrote Need You actually!). I was immediately floored b...
