Change Shapes

It's exhausting trying so hard all the time
Performative hypocrisy took over my mind
I'm a doll inside a box
With a ball and a chain
I bend over backwards, tiptoe along every wire
Guess I'm quite the actress, no one knows I'm a liar
I'm preaching to the choir
I'm a body for hire

(Ah)
And I think you should know

I change shapes 'til I get what I want from you
It's your game, now you're mad that I learned the rules
I change shapes, I change shapes for you (Ooh, ah)
I change shapes 'til I get what I need from you
We're all snakes, but what else is a girl supposеd to do?
I change shapes, but you nevеr do (Ooh)

It makes me nauseous waiting for slips of the tongue
God, I know you love it when you're eating your young
It's a really bad habit
Playing dead and dumb
It's a precaution, playing a smile on a loop
Specific choreography for jumping through hoops
I'm a masochist, a martyr
Who won't stop turning the screw

(Ah)
And I think you should know

I change shapes 'til I get what I want from you
It's your game, now you're mad that I learned the rules
I change shapes, I change shapes for you (Ooh, ah)
I change shapes 'til I get what I need from you
We're all snakes, but what else is a girl supposed to do?
I change shapes, but you never do (Ooh)

I've been foolish, let you fool me twice
Wonder what would happen if you learned to play nice
So now I'm running, gonna roll that dice
Wonder what would happen if you changed
Yeah, right

I change shapes 'til I get what I want from you
It's your game, now you're mad that I learned the rules
I change shapes, I change shapes for you (Ooh, ah)
I change shapes 'til I get what I need from you
We're all snakes, but what else is a girl supposed to do?
I change shapes, but you never do
