[Verse 1]
Pretty baby, gonna go straight for the jugular tonight
You did all your own stunts, now it’s crocodile tears you cry
Guess our story was an off-white shade of light
Wasn’t it, my dear?

[Pre-Chorus]
So you go out the room, yeah, you’re the evening’s entertainment
The charismatic boy is just a character you’re playing
And all the pretty girls you said were friends kept your bed shaking
Damn, that was ice cold

[Chorus]
It was full-blown annihilation
It was my blood spilled across the pavement
It was my bad
‘Cause all I did was love you with everything I had
I did

[Post-Chorus]
I did, I did, my dear, I did
Now it’s totally annihilated

[Verse 2]
Pretty baby, well, at twenty-six you’d think you’d learned how to survive
And for my next trick you’re gonna disappear out of my lif
onna get stoned with my sister till one of us cries
Ooh, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
Now you’re lying to your mum, she thinks you’re still in education
Well, at least you’re still committed to the substances you’re taking
Let all the pretty girls you said were friends tie your shoelaces
Damn, that was ice cold

[Chorus]
And it was full blown annihilation

It was my blood spilled across the pavement
It was my bad
‘Cause all I did was love you with everything I had
I did

[Bridge]
London and Paris are forever shattered
Yeah, you play the victim, well, ain’t that just classic?
Paris and London, where we built our kingdom
It’s totally annihilated
I did, I did, my dear, I did
I did, I did, my dear

[Chorus]
And it was full blown annihilation
It was my blood spilled across the pavement
It was my bad
‘Cause all I did was love you with everything I had (I did)
I did

[Outro]
(Yeah)
Mm
