[Verse 1]
Always been a little bit fast and wild
My mama always said I was a problem child
I'm just livin' life until the day I die
It's all I know, that's how I roll

[Pre-Chorus]
I party, get naughty
Always tellin' myself I'll never do this again
I'm sorry that you caught me
Fuckin' in the hotel, it didn't mean anything

[Chorus]
Don't let me, don't let me go
I just wanna let you know that I'm no angel
But I can learn, oh
Baby, I'm bad to the bone
I just wanna let you know that I'm no angel
But I can learn

[Verse 2]
The second that you saw me, you were mesmerized
Bet you probably thought I was your ride or die
Don't wanna burst your bubble, but I cheat and lie
It's the truth, I'm bad news

[Pre-Chorus]
I party, get naughty
Always tellin' myself, I'll never do this again
I'm sorry that you caught me
Fuckin' in the hotel, it didn't mean anything

[Chorus]
Don't let me, don't let me go
I just wanna let you know that I'm no angel
But I can learn, oh
Baby, I'm bad to the bone
I just wanna let you know that I'm no angel
But I can learn, oh

[Post-Chorus]
Promise I'll try, promise I'll try (oh)
Promise I'll try, promise I'll try (oh)
I'm no angel, but I can learn

[Bridge]
Instrumental Break

[Chorus]
Don't let me, don't let me go
I just wanna let you know that I'm no angel
But I can learn, oh
Baby, I'm bad to the bone
I just wanna let you know that I'm no angel
But I can learn, oh

[Post-Chorus]
Promise I'll try, promise I'll try (oh)
Promise I'll try, promise I'll try (oh)
I'm no angel, but I can learn

Charli XCX

Charlotte Emma Aitchison (born 2 August 1992), known professionally as Charli XCX, is an English singer-songwriter known for her eclectic style. She began making music at fourteen, and her debut release was a 2008 limited-edition album aptly titled 14.

By 2010, Charli signed to Atlantic Records, and released her debut single “Stay Away” in May 2011. She released her “real” debut album, True Romance, in 2013. The record met critical acclaim but failed to attain much commercial success. Charli’s true breakthrough came with the release of hit collaborations like Iggy Azalea’s “Fancy” and Icona Pop’s “I Love It.”

In April 2014, Charli found solo success with “Boom Clap,” which was featured on the soundtrack of The Fault in Our Stars. It’s now certified triple platinum in the United States and gold in her native United Kingdom. Her sophomore album, Sucker, was a pop-punk oriented effort and enjoyed more success than her debut. “Break The Rules,” “Doing It” (featuring Rita Ora), and “Famous” all performed well on the UK singles chart.
