Snot
Carlie Hanson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Let me know when to go)

I like it when you piss me off
'Cause then I get to take it out on you
So go ahead and wipe your snot on my sweatshirt
I live right around the block
So roll your eyes and take a walk on me
Wearing nothing but your socks
Just how I like it, nothing but you on me

Oh, if I'm gonna waste my life, let me waste my life on you
Sing a little lullaby while you twist the knife

Taking me over
Taking me over
Taking me over
Taking me over

Staring at your ceiling fan (spinning in your room again)
I just wanna hold your hand ('til I break your fingers in)
They could never understand (I don't really fucking care, fucking care)
Wake up late with our makeup on
Take two smoke breaks, put it on my tongue
I love the taste of your toxic love
So waste me I don't wanna stop
(Okay)

Taking me over
Taking me over
Taking me over
Taking me over
Taking me over
Taking me over
Taking me over
Taking me over

Ah, ah, I hope it never ends
Ah, ah, so here we go again

Ooh (oh, oh)
If I'm gonna waste my life, let me waste my life on you (oh, oh)
Sing a little lullaby while you twist the knife
(Okay)

Taking me over
Taking me over
Taking me over
Taking me over
Taking me over
Taking me over




Taking me over
Taking me over

About to be another banger by Carlie I can just feel it 🔥

@takescake

This is probably the best music video I've ever seen low key.

@infernalpleb4361

I'm getting dangerously comfortable with the fact Carlie might literally never disappoint me with a release lol. I dead set haven't heard a anything approaching a bad song from her yet. And what is this now, like 20+ official releases up to this point? It's insane.

@TBroGaming

Can't wait to listen to another banger!!! Love your songs 💖
