Sweet Things - The Pretty Reckless

Evil—knocking at my door

Evil—making me its whore

I don’t mind

If you take what’s yours but give me mine

Evil wants you to know

I’m much too young to be old

I don’t mind

If you take what’s yours but give me mine

Hey there, little girl

Come inside.

I’ve got some sweet things

Put your hair in curls

Paint you up just like a drag queen

I don’t mind decay

You are the knight that saves my day

Hey there, little girl

Come inside, don’t be afraid.

I’ll keep you safe

I’m evil knocking at your door

I’m evil making you my whore

I don’t mind

If you take what’s yours but give me mine

Hey where are you going?

I wasn’t through

I’m gonna have my way with you

I am like decay

I rot the ground that guides your way, oh

Hey there, little girl

Come inside.

I’ve got some sweet things

Put your hair in curls

Paint you up just like a drag queen

How you like me now?

Did I succeed and make you proud?

Hey there, little girl

Come inside, don’t be afraid.

I’ll keep you safe
