Sofi Needs a Ladder Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Let's play musical chairs one of my favorite games
Especially now that you and I have traded place

You walk around in shoes that don't fit for a change
There is no way for you to win this race
Crisscross and turn your shirt inside out
You like to think I can't figure you out but the tables have turned
What goes around comes around, you're about to get burned
Flip the script, you're checking in, I'm checking you out

[Verse 2]
You're just too sweet till you get on my nerves and hurt like cavity
You left a bad taste in my mouth, my sour patch kid
You and me, it's no mystery, no magic trick
Let me hear this broken record again, just press repeat
I can be your new favorite waste of time and you'll be mine
All I want is your attention, it's all the same thing
Are you in? What's it gonna be?
Don't roll with the punches, make it hard for me baby

[Verse 3]
Drop you like a needle on the record, scratch my itch
Watch you walk in circles hit the beat
Drop you like a needle on the record, flip my switch
Go around in circles, hit the beat

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
