[Verse 1]
I got a pretty face, I got a messy heart
I got a stun gun, I'm standing in the dark
I'm such an angel, I'm so seethrough
Transparent body and a voice you wanna speak to
I'm gonna reel you in, yeah it's my favourite part
Swimming in the water, yeah you're playing with the big sharks
Fall in love, then you know I'll make your mind bleed
Crying in the corner, yeah you'll wish you never met me

[Pre-Chorus]
What you see is not what you get, oh no
What you see is not what you get, oh no

[Chorus]
I'm not dull, see me in the light
You can try out my poison if you like
If you wanna catch me I'll be in the sky
Don't fall in love or I'll say goodbye
This ain't no love
Nothing too serious
Ain't no love
Noth-noth-noth, nothing too serious

[Verse 2]
I got a messy face, I got a broken heart
You got a stun gun, you shot me in the dark
You're such a devil, I couldn't see you
Transparent words and a mind that I'm too into
You're gonna reel me in, yeah it's your favourite part
Swimming in the water, yeah I'm drowning with the big sharks
Fall in love, then you're gonna make my soul bleed
Crying in the corner, yeah I'll wish this never started

[Pre-Chorus]
What you see is not what you get, oh no
What you see is not what you get, oh no

[Chorus]
I'm not dull, see me in the light
You can try out my poison if you like
If you wanna catch me I'll be in the sky
Don't fall in love or I'll say goodbye
This ain't no love
Nothing too serious
Ain't no love
Noth-noth-noth, nothing too serious

[Break]

[Pre-Chorus]
What you see is not what you get, oh no
What you see is not what you get, oh no

[Chorus]
I'm not dull, see me in the light
You can try out my poison if you like
If you wanna catch me I'll be in the sky
Don't fall in love or I'll say goodbye
This ain't no love
Nothing too serious
Ain't no love
Noth-noth-noth, nothing too serious

[Chorus]
I'm not dull, see me in the light
You can try out my poison if you like
If you wanna catch me I'll be in the sky
Don't fall in love or I'll say goodbye
This ain't no love
Nothing too serious
Ain't no love
Noth-noth-noth, nothing too serious

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.
