Sitting On My Shoulder

Drop

Little demon little demon

Come and keep me up all night

Verse 1

There's a tapping in my temple at a quarter past three

Something small and sharp is smiling underneath my teeth

She knows my name

She never leaves

I pretend I'm sleeping but she's breathing next to me

Pre-Chorus

She says

Run run run

You were built for this

Sugar sweet and venomous

Chorus

Little demon sitting on my shoulder

Telling me I'm getting bolder

Little demon pulling at my collar

Every day I get a little colder

Little demon

Little demon

Post-Chorus

Ha-ha-ha

Na-na-na

Verse 2

Mama said be good and I was good for a while

Then the girl inside me learned to wear a crooked smile

Two voices one throat

Both of them mine

One wants a halo one wants everything you own

Pre-Chorus

She says

Stay stay stay

Don't you go polite

We've got appetites to bite

Chorus

Little demon sitting on my shoulder

Telling me I'm getting bolder

Little demon pulling at my collar

Every day I get a little colder

Little demon

Little demon

Post-Chorus

Ha-ha-ha

Na-na-na

Bridge

I could beg I could pray

Fold my hands behave

But she's warmer than the light

And I'd rather burn than fade

Burn than fade

Chorus

Little demon sitting on my shoulder

Telling me I'm getting bolder

Little demon pulling at my collar

Every day I get a little colder

Little demon

Little demon

Post-Chorus

Ha-ha-ha

Na-na-na
