Lyrics for Red Flag
Song by Kesha
[Chorus]
I like what I like, the bizarre type, lowlife
Tell me something I don’t know
All the nice guys left me dead inside
I like chaos dripping head to toe
[Verse 1]
I’m seeing signs that I can’t ignore
It’s complicated; what I’m looking for
You’re f****** crazy and I’m f****** bored, yeah
Exactly what I need
I need a certain kind of chemical:
It’s dangerous and unforgettable
I want emotions that are overflowing:
Outta control and hopeless
[Pre-Chorus]
The crazy in me sees the crazy in you
And I think I need it
The broken in me sees the broken in you
I just got a feeling
Hey, hoes, let’s go
[Chorus]
Like what I like, the bizarre type, lowlife
Tell me something I don’t know
All the nice guys left me dead inside
I like chaos dripping head to toe
I (Can admit that)
I (I love a red flag)
Something so wrong does it so right every time
Tell me something I don’t know
[Verse 2]
Oh, there’s nothing I don’t wanna know
Who are you when you’re all alone?
I like my men like I like my horses
I like ’em wild, outta control, yes
[Pre-Chorus]
God, I love a hopeless bastard
I’m at my best in a disaster
Can you make my heart beat faster?
I just got a feeling
[Chorus]
Like what I like, the bizarre type, lowlife
Tell me something I don’t know
All the nice guys left me dead inside
I like chaos dripping head to toe
I (Can admit that)
I (I love a red flag)
Something so wrong does it so right every time
Tell me something I don’t know
[Post-Chorus]
I don’t know, know
Know, know
[Bridge]
I see a red flag walking by, it really does it for me
He doesn’t know me, but he told me that he really loves me
We’re getting married and we’re buying a boat house in Bali
This is a red flag, this is a red flag
I’m trying to level, but the devil’s telling me we’re perfect
You say you don’t believe in miracles, but I can turn you
Can’t see this ending, but I certainly can’t see this working
This is a red flag, this is a red flag
[Chorus]
Like what I like, the bizarre type, lowlife
Tell me something I don’t know
All the nice guys left me dead inside
I like chaos dripping head to toe (This is a red flag)
I (Can admit that)
I (I love a red flag)
Something so wrong does it so right every time
Tell me something I don’t know
[Outro]
I don’t know, know
Know, know
