(Mmm, hey!)
Woke up slow on a busted train
Name tag shining, eyes look drained
He says,"Clock in, girl, don't be late"
I step off early, let him wait (uh-huh)
Got holes in my thrift store gold
Worn out boots and a heart too bold
They wrote the rules in black and white
I brought colors they couldn't hide
Velvet riot in my veins
Silk and thunder through these chains
You can lock my body, never my groove
Watch me start a quake when my hips move
Velvet riot in my name
Sweet like honey, wild like flame
If you want my silence, baby, you lose
'Cause I was born to break your muses
(Uh, and don't you dare to sto-)
(Hey!)
Don't you dare to sto-
(Hey!)
Boss man preaching, keep it neat
I put glitter on my time sheet
Turn that hallway to a runway strut
Every side-eye just fuels my gut
Mama said,"Girl, just play it safe"
I kiss danger on the staircase
Red lipstick on the old wood rail
Signed my promise I will never fail
Velvet riot in my veins
Silk and thunder, snap these chains
You can lock our bodies, never our groove
Watch us start a quake when our hips move
Velvet riot, say our name
Sweet like honey, wild like flame
If you want our silence, baby, you lose
'Cause we were born to break your muses
(Uh, and don't you dare to sto-)
(Oh yeah!)
Don't you dare to sto-
(Oh!)
Hands up high if you're tired of later
Hands up high if you want it now
We don't wait for a new dictator
We just spin on our heels and bow
Snap that script, flip that bone
Marching time to your own backbone (bone, bone, bone)
Velvet riot in my veins
Silk and thunder, snap these chains
You can lock our bodies, never our groove
Watch us start a quake when our hips move
Velvet riot, say our name
Sweet like honey, wild like flame
If you want our silence, baby, you lose
'Cause we were born to break your muses
(Uh, and don't you dare to sto-)
(Oh yeah!)
(And sto-)
