Black Widow Lyrics

Standing there with your red coat on
French perfume looking vulnerable
Black widow girl you sit and wait
Till I climb into the web you made

I'm an animal,
You got me losing control
You got me losing control
You got me losing control
It's not right

I can't take it no more girl
I can't take this abuse
Every time that you walk in the room girl
Hypnotised by the way that you move
It's the way that you move

You call me out, your beck and call
Set me up just to watch me fall
Twist and turn, bend and sway
I move in then you push away

I'm an animal
You got me losing control
You got me losing control
You got me losing control
It's not right

I can't take it no more girl
I can't take this abuse
Every time that you walk in the room girl
I'm hypnotized by the way that you move
It's the way that you move

I can't take it no more, no more girl
I can't take this abuse
Every time that you walk in the room, the room
I'm Hypnotized by the way that you move

I can't tell you the future, I may promise the moon
Cause every time that you walk in the room girl
I'm hypnotized by the way that you move
It's the way that you move
(It's the way that you move)
It's the way that you move
(It's the way that you move)

Cigarette Daydreams

Standing there with your red coat on
French perfume looking vulnerable
Black widow girl you sit and wait
Till I climb into the web you made

I'm an animal, 
You got me losing control
You got me losing control 
You got me losing control
It's not right

I can't take it no more girl
I can't take this abuse
Every time that you walk in the room girl
Hypnotised by the way that you move
It's the way that you move

You call me out, your beck and call
Set me up just to watch me fall
Twist and turn, bend and sway
I move in then you push away

I'm an animal 
You got me losing control
You got me losing control 
You got me losing control
It's not right

I can't take it no more girl
I can't take this abuse
Every time that you walk in the room girl
I'm hypnotized by the way that you move
It's the way that you move

I can't take it no more, no more girl
I can't take this abuse
Every time that you walk in the room, the room
I'm Hypnotized by the way that you move

I can't tell you the future, I may promise the moon
Cause every time that you walk in the room girl
I'm hypnotized by the way that you move
It's the way that you move
(It's the way that you move)
It's the way that you move
(It's the way that you move)

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.
