Butterflies Lyrics

[Intro: Gayle]
No, no, no, like this

[Chorus: Gayle]
Come on, baby, come, come on, baby
You're my butterfly on my daisy
Come on, baby, come, come on, baby
You make my legs shake, you make me go crazy

[Verse 1: Gayle]
Overcriticizing, always villainizin'
Overanalyzing, always overridin'
Slither like a snake
Just a caterpillar, you won't see me getting bigger
'Til I'm flying in a figure eight
Circling your face

[Pre-Chorus: Gayle]
People feel better when they put you in a box
But the plastic's gonna melt
If you're the one to make it hot
'Cuz they're looking for thе one-way monologue
(They'rе looking for the one-way monologue)
Are you getting mad
Panic attacks?
Don't take it back
You wanna lash out

[Chorus: Gayle]
Come on baby, come, come on, baby
You're my butterfly on my daisy
Come on, baby, come, come on, baby
You're my butterfly, sugar, crazy
Come on, baby, come, come on baby (Ooh-ooh, ooh)
You're my butterfly on my daisy
Come on, baby, come, come on, baby (Ooh-ooh, ooh)
Make my legs shake, you make me go crazy

[Bridge: Gayle]
"Can you shut up?"
"And your whole art was wild"
"You're insane"

[Verse 2: Gayle]
Butterflies in my eyes
And the looks that could kill
You could say (You could say)
It's a gift (It's a gift)
But I know (But I know)
It's a skill (It's a skill)

[Pre-Chorus: Gayle]
People feel better when they put you in a box
And you're fitting all the story lines
They think they need to plot
And they're looking for the clickbait dialogue
(Looking for the clickbait dialogue)

[Chorus: Gayle]
Come on, baby, come, come on, baby
You're my butterfly, sugar, crazy
Come on baby, come, come on, baby
You're my butterfly on my daisy
Come on, baby, come, come on baby (Ooh-ooh, ooh)
You're my butterfly, sugar, crazy
Come on, baby, come, come on, baby (Ooh-ooh, ooh)
You're my butterfly

[Outro: Gayle]
"Hello?"
Come on, baby, come, come on, baby
You're my butterfly (Fly, fly), sugar, crazy
Come on, baby, come, come on, baby
Be my butterfly (Fly, fly) on my daisy
(Fly, fly, fly, fly) Sugar, crazy
On my daisy
