Lyrics

Play Destroy (feat. Grimes)

It's Grimes
I'm Poppy
Let's go

Destroy

This is how we play
This is how we play destroy (Play destroy)
Gonna cut your face
And break your favorite toy
Drop a match in the gas tank
Blow up your neighbour's pool
Oh, boy
I love to play destroy

Mhm, mhm
Oh, boy, boy
Boy, boy, boy
Mhm, destroy
Mhm

This is how we play
This is how we play destroy (Play destroy)
Manipulate the girls
Indoctrinate the boys

Burn down the local Wal-Mart
Monsanto, Raytheon

Oh, boy
I love to play destroy
I love to play destroy
Play destroy
Drop a match in the gas tank
Blow up your neighbor's pool
Oh, boy
I love to play destroy

Poppy, I'm dying
It's a Hollywood moment
Destroy, destroy, destroy
Destroy, destroy, destroy
It's time to die
Uh!

This is how we play destroy, destroy

This is how we play
This is how we play destroy (Play destroy)
Gonna cut your face
And make your favorite toy
Drop a match in the gas tank
Blow up your neighbor's pool
Oh, boy
Oh, oh, oh boy
I love to play destroy
Play destroy

Burn down the local Wal-Mart
Monsanto, Raytheon

Oh, boy
I love to play destroy
I love to play destroy
