[Verse 1]
Friday night at the club, got my gloves on
Swishy-swish, gold locks, ponytail, stun gun
Long nails with the gloss on, dressed up like a champion
Whip it, whip it good
Dude, don't touch me 'cause I'm on one, yeah
Feeling super fly, heavyweight, don't cross the line
Yes, I'm kinda drunk but I just came to have a good time
That guy in the corner keeps on looking at my behind
Ugh, what you looking at? You better run, run for your life

[Pre-Chorus]
I wanna start a war, I wanna start a war
I wanna start a war, I wanna start a war
I wanna start a war

[Chorus]
(Hua) Like I do karate
(Hya) Like I do judo
(Fua) Like I do kickboxing (Ding)
Total T.K.O

[Verse 2]
Wait a second, think he wants to step into the ring
Staring at my chest, boy, put your eyes where I can see them
Hands off, don't touch, I'm not your property, I'm leavin'
Pester me again, I'm gonna have to kick your teeth in
Oh, now he's laughing with his friends, they think it's funny
"She's acting like a virgin, bet she never sucks dick"
Hey, let me tell you something
Your mummy taught you nothin'
Don't need 20 rounds to beat you
Baby, I'm not bluffin'

[Pre-Chorus]
I wanna start a war, I wanna start a war
I wanna start a war, I wanna start a war
I wanna start a war

[Chorus]
(Hua) Like I do karate
(Hya) Like I do judo
(Fua) Like I do kickboxing (Ding!)
Total T.K.O
(Hua) Like I do karate
(Hya) Like I do judo
(Fua) Like I do kickboxing (Ding!)
Total T.K.O

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.
