About This Track

Lil Xan and Charli XCX join forces on this late-night romance, built around the push and pull of two people testing whether connection can survive recklessness. The track moves between Lil Xan's verses, where he cycles through bravado and vulnerability, and a shared chorus that keeps returning to the same question: is everything right? The production sits somewhere between trap and pop, letting the two voices trade space without strain. What holds the song together is its central tension. Beneath the talk of moonshine and fast cars runs a current of doubt, a recognition that "it dont happy, though". Happiness, the song insists, is what matters. That's not a revelation, but it's stated plainly enough to feel like something worth saying in a song otherwise occupied with the small dramas of attraction and ego.

"Moonlight" is a track by Lil Xan, from the album TOTAL XANARCHY, released 6th April 2018. Full lyrics are available below.

Lyrics

Moonlight

[Intro: Lil Xan]

(Ear Drummers)

Yeah, ayy, brrt

Yeah, yeah, ayy, ayy

[Chorus: Lil Xan]

Under the moonlight

She said she felt the mood right

And said, "Is everything right?"

We drunk up off that moonshine

We look up at the star lights

She look just like the star shine

I gave that bitch my sunshine

It's peakin' through the highrise

It's peakin' through that (Yeah)

Ayy, but it don't mean shit if you ain't happy, though

Happiness is all that matters, yes, I hope you know

And fuck it, let's just see what happens, take a risk, let's take a trip

We swervin' off the bourbon, hope we don't hit the dip

[Verse 1: Lil Xan]

Ayy, on my Post Malone shit, now I got my own bitch

Money that I spent, so now you know I fuckin' own shit

Yeah, I'm on my own, feelin' lone, drink Patrón

Got them evil bitches all up in my motherfuckin' zone

Ayy, ayy, and why you never answer phones?

Ayy, ayy and, yeah, I'm chillin' home alone

Back in high school, she didn't want me, now that shit changed

Now her family show me praise, that shit seem like super strange

[Chorus: Charli XCX & Lil Xan]

Under the moonlight

She said she felt the mood right

She said, "Is everything right?"

We drunk up off that moonshine

We look up at the star lights (Yeah)

She look just like the star shine (Ayy, ayy)

I gave that bitch my sunshine

It's peakin' through the highrise (Ayy)

It's peakin' through the (Yeah)

Ayy, but it don't mean shit if you ain't happy, though

Happiness is all that matters, yes, I hope you know

And fuck it, let's just see what happens, take a risk, let's take a trip

We swervin' off the bourbon, hope we don't hit the dip

[Verse 2: Lil Xan & Charli XCX]

White Mercedes, whip it, do one-fifty, hope I do not crash

Fuck that bitch then hit the dash (Dash), fuck that bitch then hit the dash (Dash)

I be on my superhero, baby, let's just fly away

Go away, if you broke my heart, I hope you go away

White Mercedes, whip it, watch me strip and press up on the glass

Do it good, I'm on the dash, put you right up on the dash

I be on my Al Pacino level, high as fuck today

Robbery, if you break my heart, you better run away

[Bridge: Lil Xan & Charli XCX]

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

[Chorus: Charli XCX & Lil Xan]

Yeah, under the moonlight

She said she felt the mood right

I told her hold my hand

She said, "Is everything right?"

We drunk up off that moonshine

We look up at the star lights (Yeah)

She look just like the star shine (Ayy, ayy)

Ayy, but it don't mean shit if you ain't happy, though

Happiness is all that matters, yes, I hope you know

And fuck it, let's just see what happens, take a risk, let's take a trip

We swervin' off the bourbon, hope we don't hit the dip

[Verse 3: Charli XCX]

Yeah, yeah, Marilyn Monroe shit

Blow you away, blow you away, like you alive shit

Wear a white dress, rip it off, lay me down in the grass shit

Fuckin' it up good, 4 a.m., swimming pool after dark shit

Summer nights, Pacific Highway

'Cause I just really wanna pull you close

Always love the things I lose the most

Oh, oh, oh

Fall in love and then we let it go

Always love the things I lose the most, yeah

Hop in the ride

Ruh, ruh
