lyrics

You talk about it first?
-Yeah. You got a safe-word?
Yeah. You don't strangle, or suffocate...
-or choke, or asphixiate?
Nooo way.

TIMES…ARE…ROUGH… and being a woman isn’t easy
Can you accept my needs and not judge what pleases me?
I wanna lose control but I need to know I’m safe
So this is how it’s gonna go if you and I are gonna play…
In public, we’re equals ropes are our little secret.
I’m a big bad girl, and I’ve got a killer brain
Uh huh: a feminist who doesn’t mind a little bit of pain…
So Tie me up when I’m down
Hold my arms to the ground
Put your hand on my mouth
Ride me hard ‘til I shout

I hate feeling blue but hell—reality bites;
And when I feel it nip I gotta start a little fight.
Bossy bottom, that’s me yeah that bitch in the cave
You’ve got me gagged and blindfolded but I’m nobody’s slave
Scratch your shoulders bite your neck
Playing rough Is how I connect.
In the bedroom if I ask you will you take control?

If you need it, I can be a fuckin' Mountain Troll.
I'm no Chris Brown, transformin' ya face
Might slap you up a little but won't put you in a brace.
Something tricky's going on when we play this game
I don't really wanna hurt you but I like causing you pain.
So back that ass up and I'll give it a smack.
When I hear you say UHH! then I know we're on track.

Tie you up when you’re down
When you’re around I never frown.
I’ll put a smile on your lips when I cinch the rope around your wrists.
When push comes to shove that's when I know we're making love
Let's take this leather and turn it to lace.

Mmhm I feel like Bella when she married Edward
When we fucking it’s so crazy we be breakin’ the headboard.
I don’t mind a little bruising if you’re looking for a snack…
Now it’s time to switch it up, that’s right: hands behind your back.
