First single “Stoop” aptly ushers in album 'Look Out Where You’re Going', its insistent pulse, lurking synths, and recurring guitar figures all foils for Mercedes’ subtly aching delivery and sex-positive attitude. “[It’s] about those summer nights in the city, when all you want is anyone to distract you,” she said. “To sit out on your stoop with you, drink some wine, maybe make out, and then leave just as easily.”
lyrics
The mist collects on my
Eyelashes
As I wait outside
For no one specific
And you roll up
Like you’ve been here before
I’ll dry you off
with my cheap hair blower
The night like dominos
collapsing fast so
Take off my shirt
Like you mean it
Like you mean it
Take off my shirt
I don’t need it
I don’t need it
The summer comes
With restless yearning
And what’s the fun
In staying collected
So I fess up
Cause I’ve been here before
You want to mess up
Baby it’s easy
you pushed the domino
Windows are losing their glow
Take off my shirt
Like you mean it
Like you mean it
Take off my shirt
I don’t need it
I don’t need it
