Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Make you want a matte lip and a mini skirt
Make you want a big blazer and a collared shirt
Make you want a little lift so your face is snatched
Lose five pounds but don't lose that bag
And you see me in the videos I post online
Don't you think it would be better if you had what's mine?
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause when I put it on I make it look super cute
So I can make you want anything that I want you to
That I want you to, that I want you to
I can make you want anything that I want you to
[Chorus]
Because I know you like the back of my hand, it's true
I can make you want what I want you to
[Verse 2]
Make you want a nice house with a picket fence
Make you want two kids with inheritance
Make you want a ring light for self defence
Make you wanna give money to the government
So the cops can all have military tanks
To protect your nice neighborhood just in case
'Cause I write all the papers and the TV shows

MUNA →To make you think that other people are criminals
[Pre-Chorus]
And I control the airwaves, I control the news
So I can make you want anything that I want you to
That I want you to, that I want you to
I can make you want anything that I want you to
[Chorus]
Because I know you like the back of my hand, it's true
I can make you want what I want you to
[Bridge]
Make you want to build an army and wage a war
Make you want to show the world what America's for
And how America gives more than America takes
We give weapons to dictators in apartheid states
We give kids in Palestine PTSD
But we'll never fucking ever give them something to eat
And if you've got a problem with it, you could end up in jail
Send you to Louisiana, million dollar bail
[Pre-Chorus]
Because I have a big stick I'm not afraid to use
So I can make you do anything that I want you to
That I want you to, that I want you to
I can make you do anything that I want you to
[Chorus]
Because I know you like the back of my hand, it's true
I can make you do what I want you to

The Los Angeles trio revisit a cut from their fourth studio record.
If MUNA had a peak, they have just moved it upwards.
The trio preview their forthcoming album 'Dancing on the Wall' with a new track.
Though by her own admission 'What A Relief' is a side-project before she returns to Greatest Band In The World™ MUNA, when Katie Gavin has something to say, you'd better listen.
