“XS“ is the second song released from Rina Sawayama’s debut album SAWAYAMA. It’s a song that lives up to its title both sonically and lyrically. Over short bursts of rock guitars and “Like I Love You”-esque acoustic riffs, Rina outlines the ridiculousness of consumption.
The song was premiered on B...
[Intro]
More
[Verse 1]
Hey, I want it all, don't have to choose
And when the heart wants what it wants, what can I do?
So I'll take that one, that one, yeah, that one too
Luxury and opulence
[Pre-Chorus]
Cartiers and Tesla Xs
Calabasas, I deserve it
Call me crazy, call me selfish
I'm the baddest and I'm worth it
[Chorus]
Gimme just a little bit (More), little bit of (Excess)
Oh me, oh my
I don't wanna hear (No, no), only want a (Yes, yes)
Oh me, oh my
Gimme just a little bit (XS, XS)
Oh me, oh my
Gimme just a little bit (More), little bit of (Excess)
Gimme just a little bit (More), little bit of (Excess)
Oh me, oh my
I don't wanna hear (No, no), only want a (Yes, yes)
Oh me, oh my
Gimme just a little bit (XS, XS)
Oh me, oh my
Gimme just a little bit (More), little bit of (Excess)
[Verse 2]
Flex, when all that's left is immaterial
And the price we paid is unbelievable
And I'm taking in as much as I can hold
Well, here are the things you'll never know
[Pre-Chorus]
Make me less so I want more (More)
Bought a zip code at the mall
Call me crazy, call me selfish
Say I'm neither, would you believe her?
[Chorus]
Gimme just a little bit (More), little bit of (Excess)
Oh me, oh my
I don't wanna hear (No, no), only want a (Yes, yes)
Oh me, oh my
Gimme just a little bit (XS, XS)
Oh me, oh my
Gimme just a little bit (More), little bit of (Excess)
[Bridge]
Oh me, oh my, where did it go awry?
When all this time, heaven was in our eyes
So, say goodnight, forget about it 'til the end of time
Yeah, I want more, more, more, more, more
More, more, more, more, more
[Chorus]
Gimme just a little bit (More), little bit of (Excess)
Oh me, oh my
I don't wanna hear (No, no), only want a (Yes, yes)
Oh me, oh my
Gimme just a little bit
Oh me, oh my
Gimme just a little bit (More), little bit of (Excess)
(I need it now)
Gimme just a little bit, little bit of (Give me just a little more)
Oh me, oh my
I don't wanna hear (No, no), only want a (Yes, yes) (I don't wanna hear no, woah)
Oh me, oh my
Gimme just a little bit (Give me just a little more)
Oh me, oh my
Gimme just a little bit, little bit of (Give me just a little)
[Outro]
Bit more (XS, XS)
A little bit more (XS, XS)
A little bit more (XS, XS)
More, yeah, yeah

“XS” is a song that mocks capitalism in a sinking world. Given that we all know global climate change is accelerating and human extinction is a very real possibility within our lifetime it seemed hilarious to me that brands were still coming out with new makeup palettes every month and public figure...
I wrote this with Nate Campany, Kyle Shearer and Chris Lyon, who are super pop writers. It was the first session we ever did together in LA. They were noodling around with guitar riffs and I was like, “I want to write something that’s really abrasive, but also pop that freaks you out.” It’s the good...
