Kim Petras
L’enfant Terrible
[Verse 1]
I dream to be a teenage tragedy
Dropped out at seventeen
What do I do when I turn twenty-three?
'Cause that's already fucking old in this industry
I've got the clock ticking in the back of my head
I gotta do better, I just sing a track
I got to keep going, keep losing my sleep
The dream's free but the struggle's sold separately

[Pre-Chorus]
One day up in Beverly Hills
Smoke blunts, just chill
Never hustle to pay the bills
Watch this shit fulfill

[Chorus]
And so you work hard, drink up, repeat forever
You gotta live right now like it doesn't matter
You try to put me down, I'ma only get bettеr
If you can see it, it is possible
Go 'head talk that shit 'bout me
If you don't listеn to nobody, then at least you're free
I'm headed straight toward non-stop, you feel me?
Take it or leave it, L'enfant terrible (L'enfant terrible)
[Verse 2]
I dream to see the big lights shine for me
One shot and get lucky
Chasing my self-fulfilling prophecy
Don't you know nothing worth achieving ever comes for free?
I've got the clock ticking in the back of my head
This time there's no way I'm ever coming back
I'm gonna keep moving, keep breaking the rules
The pain's real since the day we dropped out of school

[Pre-Chorus]
But one day dans les Champs-Élysées
Decked out, Cartier
Call it crazy until it's real
Watch this shit fulfill

[Chorus]
And so you work hard, drink up, repeat forever
You gotta live right now like it doesn't matter
You try to put me down, I'ma only get better
If you can see it, it is possible
Go 'head talk that shit 'bout me
If you don't listen to nobody then at least you're free
I'm headed straight toward non-stop, you feel me?
Take it or leave it, L'enfant terrible
[Bridge]
They like to make you fall couple times before you soar
Throw rocks your way, acting like it's all support
If you're the greatest, still starting at the bottom
Long way to go on 'til it's dollar bills and supermodels
Who are you to tell me anything's unreachable?
I see the visuals, the blueprints hanging on the wall
Won't let nobody tell me anything is impossible
Je n'ai pas, pas français
But still I am L'enfant terrible

[Chorus]
And so you work hard, drink up, repeat forever
You gotta live right now like it doesn't matter
You try to put me down, I'ma only get better
If you can see it, it is possible
Go 'head talk that shit 'bout me
If you don't listen to nobody then at least you're free
I'm headed straight toward non-stop, you feel me?
Take it or leave it, L'enfant terrible

[Outro]
L'enfant terrible
Take it or leave it, L'enfant terrible
Take it or leave it, L'enfant terrible
