Bite

BITE

VERSE 1
Scrapes on her knees and blood on her skirt
He pushed her on playground
Six years old
Dried her eyes and brushed off the dirt
Shut her mouth
Ran all the way home

PRE 1
“Mama mama what do I do?”
“You bite back if he bites you”
“But mama mama what if I lose?”
“You do what you have to do.”

CHORUS
Before you take a bite, babe
You better be ready, some girls bite back
Before you take a bite, babe
You better be ready, some girls bite back

POST
Bite, bite
Ba-da-da-da-da-da, Ba-da-da-da-da-da
Bite, bite
Ba-da-da-da-da-da, Ba-da-da-da-da-da

VERSE 2
Dead in the eyes, back on the floor
Pushed her in the penthouse
Twenty years old
4 in the morning
Streets of New York
Don't wanna call home
But she's so cold

PRE 2
“Mama mama here's what I'll do
He bites me I'll bite him too and
Mama mama I won't lose
I'll do what I have to do…”

CHORUS

POST CHORUS

VERSE 3/BRIDGE
Staring at the carpet, hands on her shoulder
Locked in his office, 10 years older
Bared her fangs, cause now she's bolder
And when her little girl asked
She just told her

PRE/BRIDGE
“Mama mama knows what to do
I fight back, and so will you
Cause I'm your mama and we never lose
We bite back when we need to.”

CHORUS
