Lick My Wounds
Ron Pope Lyrics

Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh

Verse 1:
She stumbled in through the exit
21 but holds her liquor like a freshman
She don’t ever stay out this late
And when I look at her I can feel my pulse race

Chorus:
And if looks could kill
She would stop your heart
Not just a girl
But a work of art
Well, she cuts me deep
With the way she moves
Then she pulled me in
And she licked my wounds

Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh

Verse 2:
I think the sun’s probably coming up
I don’t want to go home, but they threw us out
And I don’t ever stay out this late
But there’s something happening that made my pulse race

Chorus:
And if looks could kill
She would stop your heart
Not just a girl
But a work of art
Well, she cuts me deep
With the way she moves
Then she pulled me in
And she licked my wounds

What’s good for me, good for me now
What’s good for me, good for me now
What’s good for me, good for me now
What’s good for me, good for me now

Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh

Chorus:
And if looks could kill
She would stop your heart
Not just a girl
But a work of art
Well, she cuts me deep
With the way she moves
Then she pulled me in
And she licked my wounds

And if looks could kill
She would stop your heart
Not just a girl
But a work of art
Well, she cuts me deep
With the way she moves
Then she pulled me in
And she licked my wounds

And if looks could kill
She would stop your heart (Oh oh oh)
Not just a girl
But a work of art (Oh oh oh)
Well, she cuts me deep
With the way she moves (Oh oh oh)
Then she pulled me in
And she licked my wounds (Oh oh oh)

Why is everyone freaking about Ron Pope doesn't sound like he used to? This is honestly just one song from him that sounds like this. He hasn't lost anything, he hasn't changed enough to the point where people should be concerned about it. This is a very good song, the lyrics are genius and the instrumental is amazing. His fans should really be more loyal to him.

CPT Snazzypants

Tara Winchester I think us OG fans are used to his acoustic stuff. I honestly never bothered to listen to this version until just now because the acoustic is so damn amazing, I didn’t want to ruin it. And this....it just ruins it. His acoustic stuff is ALWAYS better. Always. This is just so not Ron Pope.

I can dig it, I love the creativity used in this video. But a far cry from when it was just him and his guitar.

Panfili Aurélie

I'm addicted to this song !

TheEverythingGirl122

what happened...his songs were so beautiful!!! like this isnt a bad song, but i love love love his old stuff

CPT Snazzypants

K the lyrics are pure Pope poetry, as always, but after listening to just the acoustic version for so long, I actually feel a little broken hearing this. And not in the good way. I mean in the “why did they ruin such an amazing song this way,” broken. Mr. Pope. You don’t need to be modern and radio whored. You are a goddam treasure. Stay that way.

Literally love this song and all of his other stuff, chill people...

Faith Murri

Just kind of reminded me of a comic version of Gotye's "Somebody That I Used To Know"
Unsure if gusta...

TheMadisonMachine

I put "Ron Pope Ripoff" in the youtube search bar and this came up. Poor MGMT.

Michael Green

Everyone should calm down, this is great music. Whether it sounds like stuff off his first EP is another matter. Just enjoy it

@James Martin hey, I did the art for this and it has nothing to do with the illumanti

James Martin

For Real??? HUH I GUESS EVERYONE is a DEVIL WORSHIPING DEMON, ILLUMINATI STYLE, GRAB YOUR BIBLES PEOPLE and READ UP!

nothing compared to drop in the ocean

Ayana Jayjay

This video reminds me of the passion pit video

TheMadisonMachine

Not uniquely different. Try MGMT's "Electric Feel" from 2008.

ILLUMINATI

Faith Murri

I am a little confused as to what this video was trying to say, because it seemed a little more illuminati and bad video production than the social commentary on women stereotypes and male expectations that I was expecting.....Just seemed to follow the ironic bandwagon of "we're hipster, let's have a confusingly weird video that has little to nothing to do with the song! Yay!"
I love Ron Pope--his new and old songs--but I am rather disappointed in his first video. It was entertaining, but I feel like it affected me in no way, so I am a little sad at that.

Nicole McGahan

Oh hell nah, This isn't the Ron Pope I used to know. He has changed way too much. He needs to write more songs like A Drop In The Ocean and If You Were A Stone. Those songs were way more meaningful and touching than this stuff.

Cappuccinno

WHY IS IT THE SAME BEAT AS ELECTRIC FEEL.

so sad its so illuminati too bad you were a good singer

Yesenia Jimenez

i love RON POPE. My favorite artist. He's all i listen to, but I agree. Kinda Dissappointed in the song and video. Song is still great, but it doesn't seem like "Ron Pope". The illuminati symbols and stuff are saddening. I really love him, it would be terrible to see him change for the worst. His songs will forever have a place in my heart. Best artist out there and lyricist but this is not Ron Pope.

I'd advise MGMT to sue if it weren't for the fact that he probably has zero money. Nah, better sue him just to be safe. Gotta defend your copyright.

nermine abassi

i can't believe he's the same artistt who sang a drop in the ocean shit. i mean seriously ? such a dissapointment !

Victoria S.

I like his old stuff way more /:

stop - it - ries

7y↑1

This is just some crap illuminati shit. This is nothing like Rone Pope used to wrote. Songs like you're the reason I come home and perfect for me and a drop in the ocean are all so much better than this, I really don't know what he was thinking..

TheMadisonMachine

This song is such a ripoff of Electric Feel by MGMT. I mean, to have one or two things that sound similar to it can be coincidental, but to have SO many hallmarks of Electric Feel is pretty much proof of a ripoff. I hope MGMT sues.

Marina Carić

Ripoff of Electric Feel by MGMT. Not cool at all, dude.

Doesn't sound like the usual Ron Pope songs - not that he should write the same type of songs. But there's no Ron Pope signature.. His voice is the only thing that reminds me that this is his song... Idk.. Maybe it's just me. lol

Olivia Eastman

It’s just you.

Blaine mccarty

I felt the same. I thought another, new artist had the same name till I heard his voice. It's a good song but it's not like Ron Pope's usual stuff. I love it that he changed it up a little and too a risk but I still like his older stuff a little more.

Nailah Casimiro

7y↑1

What happened to Ron Pope? I was just searching for his songs because I find them really beautiful and I ended up on this video and there goes all illuminati signs...well,....im speechless. But if it's the music that he wants, then it's fine. Let him do what he wants. The thing is, his old songs were really nice and not something like this......

Olivia Eastman

Nailah Casimiro oh shut up. He still makes nice slow songs. He is expanding his music. That’s not a bad thing. I admire artists who explore different things.
