Hot Faced

by Margaux Bouchegnies

on More Brilliant Is the Hand That Throws the Coin (2019)

[Verse 1]
Please and thank you, come right in
Now the king will see you
Let your guard down
Slowly, softly, sweetly, slowly

[Hook]
Hot faced, lamb woman
Too quiet to be noticed
Insane, what they all say
Cry hard, you're not that serious

[Verse 2]
I wanna see myself malfunctioning
I wanna see myself skip in place
I wanna see myself malfunctioning
I wanna see myself skip in place

[Verse 3]
Please and thank you, come right in
Now the king will see you, let your guard down
Slowly, softly, sweetly, slowly

[Hook]

If I calculate and sing it softly now
Why is yelling not okay?
A woman's voice is possibly threatening

[Bridge]

Can't look me in the face — do I intimidate?
What's your problem with me and feeling tall?
What's your problem with me and feeling tall?
What's your problem with me and feeling —

[Verse 4]
Please and thank you, come right in
Now the king will see you
Let your guard down
