Lyrics
[Verse 1] Corner table, Sherman Oaks
Two friends and a cigarette smoke
Lit it up right by the door
Princess does what princes don't
March came in like a siren wail
Ventura County, hold the bail
Plea it down, don't tell the press
Call it a wet reckless
[Pre-Chorus] Borden Cottage in the pines
Maine was cold, I did my time
Psychologist on Mondays now
Psychiatrist, I'll work it out
But tonight I'm out, I'm out, I'm out — [Chorus] Wet reckless, wet reckless
Twelve months probation in a little black dress
I bark, I yell, I'm a beautiful mess
Knife in my hand, I forget where I left it
Wet reckless, wet reckless
Snake in the pet store said I'm blessed
God's been talking, I'm taking notes
Wet reckless on the rocks
[Verse 2] They said kind of sad, still cute
Witnesses with their phones on mute
I was screaming at the chandelier
Couldn't hear me but baby they could hear
Higher consciousness, pure luck
Yellow-white omen in a Petco truck
Forty-four and still on the run
From everyone who said they're the one
[Pre-Chorus] Catalog gone to Primary Wave
December signature, what a save
Family scared me, that's the truth
Now I dance in a Sherman Oaks booth — [Chorus] Wet reckless, wet reckless
Twelve months probation in a little black dress
I bark, I yell, I'm a beautiful mess
Knife in my hand, I forget where I left it
Wet reckless, wet reckless
Snake in the pet store said I'm blessed
God's been talking, I'm taking notes
Wet reckless on the rocks
[Bridge] (I still have to learn / how to be kind to myself)
(I still have to learn / the way I speak to myself)
Look up, smile on, wow God, that was you
Look up, smile on — what else am I supposed to do?
(barking)
[Final Chorus] Wet reckless, wet reckless
Plead it down, baby, that's finesse
I bark, I yell, you can call the press
Knife in my hand — oops, I forget
Wet reckless, wet reckless
Thirty days clean and a fresh address
God's been talking, I'm taking notes
Wet reckless on the rocks
[Outro] (spoken, breathy)
…oops.
