[Verse 1]
Dim the lights, let me tell you 'bout a story
I gave all of myself to someone turns out
They were selfish and we went out with a bang
Terrified, I made a promise to myself that
I'd never let somebody hold me down
And choke me out, and walk all over me again

[Pre-Chorus]
I switched my energy
Got no sympathy
You should beware
You should be scared of me

[Chorus]
I got a chip on my shoulder
Break you down and puck you over, baby
Red, red rover
Nah, it ain't fun if I ain't sinning
I'm not like those other women, no
I don't gotta be the hero, don't you know
Don't you know that I'm the villain

[Verse 2]
Listen close, every bad guy's got their reason
Turned me to a criminal all cynical
But I don't want it any other way
Queue the smoke
It's so much better on the darker side
'Cause I don't get hurt no more I got
[Pre-Chorus]
Cutthroat energy
Got no sympathy
You should beware
You should be scared of me

[Chorus]
I got a chip on my shoulder
Break you down and puck you over, baby
Red, red rover
Nah, it ain't fun if I ain't sinning
I'm not like those other women, no
I don't gotta be the hero, don't you know
Don't you know that I'm the villain

[Outro]
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la-la
I don't gotta be the hero, don't you know
Don't you know that I'm the villain
