Lyrics

Special Affair

[Verse 1]

Penny for your thoughts, I know what you want

I can read your mind even from behind

And fuck what's in your phone, let me take you home

I wanna take you home

[Pre-Chorus]

'Cause it's so rare that I'm here, don't plan on stayin' too long

So you should come here and sit yo ass on this throne

This a special affair, better act like you know who I am

Who I am

[Chorus]

I bet this Patron

Make you feel nice and comfortable

Tryna act nice, girl, your cover's blown, but you already knew that

You already knew that, you already knew that

[Post-Chorus]

And we can burn one (burn one)

We can burn one (burn one)

[Verse 2]

Playin' in the dark, I might break your heart

I can get you high if you wanna climb

'Cause fuck leavin' alone, let me take you home

I wanna take you home

[Pre-Chorus]

'Cause it's so rare that I'm here, don't plan on stayin' too long

So you should come here and sit yo ass on this throne

This a special affair, better act like you know who I am

Who I am

[Chorus]

I bet this Patron

Make you feel nice and comfortable

Tryna act nice, girl, your cover's blown, but you already knew that

You already knew that, you already knew that

I bet this Patron

Make you feel nice and comfortable

Tryna act nice, girl, your cover's blown, but you already knew that (knew that)

You already knew that (knew that), you already knew that

[Post-Chorus]

And we can burn one (burn one)

We can burn one (burn one)

[Outro]

I bet this Patron

I bet this Patron
