This album's final song is a really powerful track, especially because of the drums I used. It's got a similar style to "Marry Pizza", although this one is far more aggressive. I used a wide variety of synthesizers, especially bass sounds, and even a distorted xylophone.
Although the lyrics seem a bit violent sometimes, and the whole point of the song is having an idea for your own mug shot if you get caught after doing all the cruel things I sang about, in the end it's not a song about being aggressive towards someone else. Instead, it's a song about feeling angry and mad after someone betrays you, and how, for a moment, you might think you'd like to beat them up. But it's a satirical song, so kids, don't beat anyone up!
I got a little secret but you can't know it yet
'Cause if you knew you'd be scared...
Not gonna say I'm sorry
Not gonna say I care
It's not even my fault, so I'm okay
You knew what you were doing
You knew those lips ain't mine
But I'm supposed to believe you all the time
And now I kinda wanna kill you
Like, really really wanna kill you
That's right, I'm not lyin'
I got it all planned, I'd do it again
I won't stop no matter what you say
You can cry all day
You can even call it a mistake
But baby, I won't take your lies
You can be my prey
You should trust me, I just wanna play
Yeah baby, now this won't hurt a bit, oh!
Ah ah ah-ah! Ah ah ah-ah! (Hmm...)
I have ideas for my mugshot, baby
Ah ah ah-ah! Ah ah ah-ah! (Hmm...)
I have ideas for my mugshot, baby
Kiss and tell, say it again
Say you wanna come clean now (say it again)
But it's just a little too late
Come around, step by step
'Til you notice what you've done (step by step)
This is just a little too late
And now I kinda wanna kill you
Like, really really wanna kill you
That's right, I'm not lyin'
I got it all planned, I'd do it again
I won't stop no matter what you say
You can cry all day
You can even call it a mistake
But baby, I won't take your lies
You can be my prey
You should trust me, I just wanna play
Yeah baby, now this won't hurt a bit, oh!
You can cry all day
You can even call it a mistake
But baby, I won't take your lies
You can be my prey
You should trust me, I just wanna play
Yeah baby, I'm going crazy now... Aw!
Ah ah ah-ah! Ah ah ah-ah! (Hmm...)
I have ideas for my mugshot, baby
Ah ah ah-ah! Ah ah ah-ah! (Hmm...)
I have ideas for my mugshot, baby
