[Lyrics]

Down to a shaky ration
So I've been honour-blue
How come they'd eat me too?
I hear them animals

How we settle...
How we settle rudely
How we settled
How excited were you?

You call me in my ferry, dear
Did you dirty there
The rat girl eyeing thy sun
The drama you loaded
You coming in my bed
Really is a bloody math
Unlock the horned day's sign
The drama you like

Song review: "A deceptively relaxed and stylish pop gem that oozes like molasses over an almost live trip-hop beat with jazz dynamics, masking its lyrical claws in a haze of languid melody. Missy's delivery is a drowsy murmur, making lines about "shaky rations" and hearing "them animals" feel like dark secrets whispered on a sleepy afternoon. The clash is sublime: the music feels like a faded Cardigans B-side, while the lyrics dissect a relationship with the cold, surgical precision of a "bloody math." The final, resigned unlock of the "horned day's sign" lands not with a scream, but with a sigh, leaving a haunting aftertaste long after the last note fades."
