[Verse 1]
Are you a constellation in the
Constellation in the sky
Trying to be patient
But it makes me all wanna die

[Chorus]
I'm out late at 4 am
He says "how’s the weather, baby? How you been?"
You're gonna get sick, you don't know when
And he will doubt it at 4 am
I’m out late at 4 am
He says "how's the weather, baby? How you been?"
You're gonna get sick, you don't know when
And he will doubt it at 4 am
(I don't give a damn at 4 am)

[Post-Chorus]
Perfect, too fucked up
Guess it's just my rotten luck
Don't wake me up

[Verse 2]
Are you a constellation in the
Constellation in the sky
Come on notification makes me wanna die

[Chorus]
I'm out late at 4 am
He says "how’s the weather, baby? How you been?"
You’re gonna get sick, you don't know when
And he will doubt it at 4 am
I’m out late at 4 am
He says "how's the weather, baby? How you been?"
You're gonna get sick, you don't know when
And he will doubt it at 4 am
(I don’t give a damn at 4 am)

[Post-Chorus]
Perfect, too fucked up
Guess it's just my rotten luck
Don't wake me up

[Bridge]
Say you wanna
Can't be so afraid of
The song now, crazy boy
I'm crazy for
Said it was the waves that crashed
And the boats
Oh, baby where you at
When the morning comes to
Set fire, and this truth, baby we're so fire
Hey, boy you wanna go
I guess if it's what you want
Hey, boy you wanna go
I guess if it's what you want
Hey, boy you wanna go
I guess if it's what you want

[Chorus]
I'm out late at 4 am (4am)
He says "how's the weather, baby? How you been?"
(How you been)
You're gonna get sick, you don't know when
And he will doubt it (doubt it) at 4 am (4am)
I'm out late at 4 am (how you been)
He says "how's the weather, baby? How you been?"
(How you been)
You're gonna get sick (born again)
You don't know when
And he will doubt it at 4 am (4am)
(Born again)
(I don't give a damn at 4 am)

[Post-Chorus]
Perfect, too fucked up
Guess it's just my rotten luck
Don't wake me up

[Outro]

Grimes is the pseudonym of Claire Elise Boucher, a singer-songwriter and experimental electro pop producer. Her music is characterized by 80s-influenced synths, pop sensibility, and high-pitched, ethereal vocals that sit in the background.

Upon releasing her first two albums, Geidi Primes and Halfaxa, in 2010 (Arbutus Records), and a split record with d'Eon called Darkbloom in 2011, she increased her fanbase and captured the attention of many. The attention led to a record deal with label 4AD and her third album, Visions, released in 2012, which she produced entirely on Garageband. The album received mass critical acclaim and pushed Grimes closer to the spotlight. At the end of 2013, she signed to be managed by Roc Nation, and following some sparse releases, released Art Angels in 2015. This album once again showed Boucher’s skilled craft, but with catchy choruses that she’d bend and twist to expand the possibilities of music.

Armed with passion, eclecticism, and a distinct sense of confidence, Grimes' music excites and enthralls her listeners, challenging them emotionally and psychologically. Grimes' discography reflects her obvious versatility—feminist club bangers, “escaping into art”, politically-coded tracks regarding sexual assault, and lyrics surrounding numb artistry. Her inability to read music doesn’t affect her quality whatsoever; she produces and engineers all her tracks herself.
