Semi-Precious-Weapons Lyrics

I can't pay my rent, but I'm fucking gorgeous
I got big lungs that could kill your chorus
If you want to try, you better come inside
I can't pay my rent but I'm fucking gorgeous

Tell me something I don't know
Tell me something I don't know
Tell me something I don't know
Tell me something I don't know

You can't
Because you don't.

I don't drink booze, because my heart's explosive
I gave up food because the shit's expensive (oh, oh.)
I know you want to be me, but baby it ain't easy
I don't drink booze, because my heart's explosive

Tell me something I don't know
Tell me something I don't know
Tell me something I don't know
Tell me something I don't know

You can't
Because you don't.

Tell me something I don't know
Tell me something I don't know

I got a diamond in my pocket
And a gun in my purse
Bring semi precious weapons or you might get hurt.

Tell me something I don't know
Tell me something I don't know
Tell me something I don't know
Tell me something I don't know

I can't pay my rent, but I'm fucking gorgeous

Statues of Ourselves

I can't pay my rent, but I'm fucking gorgeous
I got big lungs that could kill your chorus
If you want to try, you better come inside
I can't pay my rent but I'm fucking gorgeous

Tell me something I don't know
Tell me something I don't know
Tell me something I don't know
Tell me something I don't know

You can't
Because you don't.

I don't drink booze, because my heart's explosive
I gave up food because the shit's expensive (oh, oh.)
I know you want to be me, but baby it ain't easy 
I don't drink booze, because my heart's explosive

Tell me something I don't know
Tell me something I don't know
Tell me something I don't know
Tell me something I don't know

You can't
Because you don't.

Tell me something I don't know
Tell me something I don't know

I got a diamond in my pocket
And a gun in my purse
Bring semi precious weapons or you might get hurt.

Tell me something I don't know
Tell me something I don't know
Tell me something I don't know
Tell me something I don't know

I can't pay my rent, but I'm fucking gorgeous

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
