Out Of Spite Lyrics – Kim Petras
Revenge never looked this glamorous. Kim Petras turns heartbreak into a power move on “Out Of Spite” — a razor-sharp anthem where fury becomes fuel, billboards replace apologies, and the best revenge is simply being impossible to ignore.
Lyrics of Out Of Spite by Kim Petras
[Verse 1]
Oh, I’m gonna show up at my afterparty
Oh my god, I’m such a cliche, ugh!
I’m gonna ruin it for everybody
Now I live for nothing but fame
[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t see you with your hands up at my sold out show (Ugh, ugh)
So I’m talking s*it about you on the microphone (Yeah, yeah)
Drag your name out on the pavement like I’m a burro (Ugh, ugh)
I’m a dragon, you’re down with me
[Chorus]
So I’mma be on top of all your friends and idols
Oh, I’m gonna brag about it with your rivals
Yeah, I’m gonna be on every screen
Out of spite, out of spite, out of spite
Oh, I’m gonna turn into the girl you’d kill for
‘Till you can’t escape me, I’m on every billboard
Yeah, I’m gonna be on every screen
Out of spite, out of spite, out of spite
[Post-Chorus]
Out, out, out, out, out of spite, out, yeah
Out, out, out, out, out of spite, oh, baby Out, out, out, out, out of spitе
[Verse 2]
You can dig in it all fall, no, that’s not really fun
You can dig in it all falls and I’m already gone
You can dig in thе red dessert, no
It’s all a mess and I’m not solving it yet
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na, I don’t wanna wait
[Pre-Chorus]
If I don’t see you with your hands off With my soul off the shelf
So you’re rolling up the pavement like I’m a burro
And if there’s someone about it thinking Don’t listen out of spite
Then you’re done with me, yeah
[Chorus]
I’mma be on top of all your friends and idols
Oh, I’m gonna brag about it with your rivals
Yeah, I’m gonna be on every screen
Out of spite, out of spite, out of spite
Oh, I’m gonna turn into the girl you’d kill for
‘Till you can’t escape me, I’m on every billboard
Yeah, I’m gonna be on every screen
Out of spite, out of spite, out of spite
[Post-Chorus]
Out, out, out, out, out of spite, out, yeah
Out, out, out, out, out of spite, oh, baby
Out, out, out, out, out of spite
Out, uh-hoh, out, out, out, out of spite, out, yeah
Out, out, out, out, out of spite, oh, baby
Out, out, out, out, out of spite
Meaning of Out Of Spite Lyrics
Out Of Spite isn’t really about revenge. That’s the trick. Underneath the bravado and the billboard threats, there’s something far more fragile driving this track — the quiet, almost embarrassing need to be witnessed by someone who chose to look away. Kim Petras isn’t celebrating here. She’s bleeding in sequins. The spite is real, but so is the wound it’s stitched over.
What makes the lyricist’s hand so sharp is a single, almost absurd image: “Drag your name out on the pavement like I’m a burro.” A burro. Not a lion, not a hurricane — a pack animal. One can’t help but notice the self-aware comedy buried in that line. It’s unglamorous, almost humiliating work — this dragging, this hauling of someone else’s name through the dirt. Petras isn’t positioning herself as effortlessly powerful. She’s admitting the labor of spite. That’s where the craft lives. The staccato, punchy rhythm of the chorus — out of spite, out of spite, out of spite — hammers like a mantra someone repeats to stay standing, not to celebrate winning. The repetition doesn’t feel triumphant. It feels necessary.
Culturally, this lands at a precise moment. The track speaks directly to a generation that learned to monetize pain, to turn public humiliation into content, heartbreak into a press cycle. Petras — an artist who fought fiercely and publicly to be taken seriously — knows this arena intimately. “I’m gonna turn into the girl you’d kill for” isn’t vanity. It’s strategy forged from rejection. The track leaves you feeling the strange exhaustion of winning a war you never wanted to fight — dressed immaculately, smiling for every camera, secretly furious at the person who made the whole performance necessary.
