Lyrics You First – Paramore
Living well is not my kind of revenge
You should take it from me
Living well is just a privilege
Thought I’d simmer down as I got older
Can’t shake the devil sitting on my shoulder
Who invited you
Just like a stray animal
I keep feeding scraps
I give it my energy
And it keeps on coming back
Just like a stray animal
I keep feeding scraps
I give it my energy
And it keeps on coming
Everyone is a bad guy
And there’s no way, no way to know
Who’s the worst
Karma’s gonna come for all of us
And I hope, but I hope, I just hope
She comes
Comes for you first, oh
Which wolf wins
I guess it really depends, just gotta wait and see
Which one’s appetite’s the biggest
Turns out I’m living in a horror film
Where I’m both the killer and the final girl
So who, who are you
Just like a stray animal
I keep feeding scraps
I give it my energy
And it keeps on coming back
Just like a stray animal
I keep feeding scraps
I give it my energy
And it keeps on coming
Everyone is a bad guy
And there’s no way, no way to know
Who’s the worst
If karma’s gonna come for all of us
Well, I hope, well, I hope, I just hope
She comes
Comes for you first, oh
Never said I wasn’t petty
Never said I wasn’t petty
I never said I wasn’t petty
You can bet I don’t regret it for a second
It’s a pleasure, it’s a reckoning
Never said I wasn’t petty
I’ll do better when you’re better
Let me revel in your defeat
Everyone is a bad guy
And there’s no way, no way to know
Who’s the worst
But karma’s gonna come for all of us
And I hope, but I hope, I just hope
She comes
Comes for you first, oh…
