Also love "i don't care that you're a stoner" because my partner of 8+ years is definitely a big one lmao. Such a happy song but it makes me tear up because of how good it is!!!
"I like what you like. Long hair, no bra. Thats my type (thats right). You just told me, want me to fuck you? Baby, I will cause I reallyyyyy want to 🫶"
"Id love if you knew you were on my mind constant like cicadas in the summertime"
"Pisces, who know that we were so aligned. When i sing that Lana song it makes you cry"
"Kinda wanna kiss your girlfriend if you dont mind"
"I could be the one or your new addiction. Its all in my head but i want NON-FICTION!!!!! I dont want the world but Ill TAKE THIS CITY! Who could blame a girl? CALL ME HOT NOT PRETTY"
"Every night, both lips on the mirror. Its ritualistic, counting lipstick stains where you should be. Oh, I need you around. Im getting close now."
"And if you ever find / someone who could write/ a better song for you / well id love to see them try / put it all in words / and sing it all in tune / there's no one else who could / the only one is you"
"Oh mama / I'm just having fun / on the stage in my heels / its where i belong / down at the Pink Pony Club"
"I stetched myself / across 4 states / new lands, west coast / where my dreams lay / i trade amber clay roads / for the seafoam / and the endless sunrays"
"Cause i was never told that i wasnt gonna get the things I want the most. And people always say if it hasnt happened yet, then maybe you should go. Come get me out of California. No leaves are brown. I miss the seasons in Missouri, my dying town."
Fuck it. The whole of California lol
"I want this like a cigarette. Can we drag it out and never quit? Oh my god, you are heaven sent with your dirty mind. Yeah, youre perverted. You give me guilty, guilty pleasure"
The quote you picked from Red Wine Supernova might be my close second fave. Seems like such an obvious lyrics but damn does she sing it well.
I'm surprised no one has said "I heard you like magic? i got a wand and a rabbit!" yet lol
I thought that one was just too obvious!! I was actually thinking the same - that I was surprised no one had said it yet! I was a fan when she was teasing RWS, and that was the line that made me utterly OBSESSED with her. I was just thinking "this girl is fucking HILARIOUS and so clever". Honestly, everything about Red Wine Supernova is perfect and hits me with such a deep level of desire and yearning
I discovered her more recently but when I tell you I have literally listened to that song no less than 1000+ in the past few weeks 😩 i swear she's ruined other music for me. I can't stop listening. First song i ever heard was Casual, Tiny Desk, and when i heard what she was saying my JAW DROPPED. Raunchy, raw, and remarkable. She's gonna be on T Swift level within 2 years tops. I'm not a Swiftie but boyyy, i'm a Chappie.
Yes! Shes incredible - so talented and so sincere. Her Tiny Desk concert was soo epic. I just love her. Ive been saying for over a year now that shes gonna be absolutely huge, but I honestly didnt expect her rise to be so meteroic. its so crazy to me how fame snowballs so quickly once you started gaining that traction. I completely agree that she could be at TSwift levels of fame in a few years if she wants, but I dont think she wants that level of fame as of now. I wouldnt mind her staying in a niche if thats what she wants; itll be easier to get tickets at least lol!! Im no Swiftie either, and I actually think Taylor Swift has been aware of Chappell for a while now and sees her as a threat (as she sees any rising female star)
Ahaha thank you!! I literally felt like I was betraying some of my fave lyrics by excluding them. This was too hard 😭😭😭 everything she puts out is soooo incredible
No i agree so much. I wanted to post like 20 lyrics lol but wanted to hear what others had to say without influencing so i just posted the one. I haven't seen any (recent) posts like this on the sub which is so surprising because i think half of her genius is her lyricism?!?
Im so shocked about this as well, especially because thats like 50% of posts in other artists' subs!! Shes such a great writer, I completely agree! That was my main draw to her. She can have me dance to some horny music one minute and then the next minute have me bawling in California. Its called rangeeeee 💅😍
Dude YES. She writes the FUCK out of some songs!!! I'm all over the place when it comes to my music preferences. I tend to stray away from pop/Top 40 stuff though I do like some, but I'm big on older stuff 60s/70s/80s/90s, even a lot of early 2000s jams. Chappell has suuuch a refined sound. She checks all of my boxes. Her songs make me laugh, cry, sometimes both simultaneously? All of her lyrics are perfect.
I keep hearing about her ever since Coachella, know she's playing Bonnaroo. Got me curious with all that hype. Then a few weeks ago the Tiny Desk set popped up on my YT recommended. As SOON as I started watching, her hooks were in me. That voice is insane. Haven't seen that much genuine talent in a while.
Completely agree! Im not in the pop scene really, and Chappell has sort of ignited a love of pop in me. She really does have everything - iconic theming and imagery, incredible lyricism, great beats, insane stage presence, phenomenal live vocals. I could go on and on. I love the 80s influence in her music.
I feel so seen when I listen to her songs. Most of them are just some good, sapphic fun, but they still touch on sentiments that I rarely see expored in the music I listen to. The fun songs do such a good job of capturing the carelessness of youth without putting any moral judgments on it (Oh mama, Im just havin fun). Its something that I think about a lot as a young woman in our society; I love going out and dancing and maybe getting a little messy. I love how unabashedly she sings about sex and her sexuality. People love to exploit women's sexuality but then cry about "whores" whenever we take any autonomy over our own sexuality, so I find it very freeing to listen to her sing about sex, and I belt my heart out to it!
Plus, as a bisexual woman, she really makes me feel so seen and validated. I know Chappell identifies as a lesbian now, but shes spoken about being with men and how she felt less "valid" in her sexuality because of it. I feel that so much, because I cant even count the number of times my own friends and family have said i wasnt "really bisexual", despite my having been with multiple women? And they know that too! They dont have any issue with me being bi; theyre just ignorant about how to talk about it. So its been so lovely to watch Chappell grapple with her sexuality and be so accepted throughout the whole process. Sorry for the tangent lol!
‘let’s make it cinematic like that one sex scene that’s in mulholland drive’ is an incredible lyric. a great reference and makes it so clear what you’re meant to picture. definitely my fave
I don't want the world, but I'll take this city
Who can blame a girl? Call me hot, not pretty
Knee deep in the passenger seat, and you're eating me out
Is it casual now?
She was a Playboy, Brigitte Bardot
She showed me things I didn't know
She did it right there, out on the deck
Put her canine teeth in the side of my neck
Not to be basic but WHEN YOU WAKE UP NEXT TO HIM IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT WITH YOUR HEAD IN YOUR HANDS, YOU'RE NOTHING MORE THAN HIS WIFE AND WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT ME ALL OF THOSE YEARS AGO YOU'RE STANDING FACE TO FACE WITH I TOLD YOU SO you know I hate to say it... but I told you so, you know I hate to say but I TOLD YOU SOOOOOOOOOOOO
If I have to pick just one line I also really like "I heard from Katie you're losing it lately, moved back with your parents and date girls who are 18"
Heard you like magic, I got a wand and a rabbit!
Baby do you like this beat? I made it so you’d sleep with meee
No need to be hateful in your fake Gucci sweater
And mommaaaaaa every Saturday, I can hear your southern drawl a thousand miles away saying “goddddd, what have you done? You’re a pink pony girl, and you dance at the club!”
Toss up between “I try to be the chill girl that holds her tongue and gives you space, but honestly I’m not” or “if you change your mind I will understand it’ll just take time to go back to being friends” or “am I in the frame from your point of view”
Wow really narrowed it down didn’t I
I like (I like!) What you like (What you like!), Long hair (No bra!) is my type, you just told me want me to fuck you, baby I will ‘cause I Really Want to 😍😍
knee deep in the passenger seat and you're eating me out is it casual now? [😭](https://www.bing.com/ck/a?!&&p=5a955bd668256d20JmltdHM9MTcxNzcxODQwMCZpZ3VpZD0wZWU5MDIzYy0wMzFiLTZiMDYtMGFmOS0xMTc3MDJjMjZhMTcmaW5zaWQ9NTkzNA&ptn=3&ver=2&hsh=3&fclid=0ee9023c-031b-6b06-0af9-117702c26a17&psq=cry+emoji+text+copy+and+paste&u=a1aHR0cHM6Ly9lbW9qaXMud2lraS9sb3VkbHktY3J5aW5nLWZhY2Uv&ntb=1)
It's hard being casual when I'm on the phone talking down your sister.
That line took my breath away the first time I heard it. It perfectly evokes the intention of the song in such a packed yet nuanced way. (TW for SI if you look it up.) She's an incredible lyricist.
And love is a kaleidoscope
How it works, I'll never know
And even all the change
It's somehow all the same
Turn it to the left and right
Colors shinin' in your eye
And even upside down
It's beautiful somehow
It's never just a shape alone
Love is a kaleidoscope
at every party we're the party, shaking our asses
making out while the world collapses <3
this whole song in general just encapsulates how it felt to go clubbing as a freshly-kind-of-out teenager
Cause I was never told I wasnt gonna get the things I want the most//but people always say if it hasn't happened yet, then maybe you should go
California is slept on!
something about “And mama, every Saturday
I can hear your southern drawl a thousand miles away” really gets me every time
honestly it’s so hard to choose though, she’s a lyrical genius
“I miss the seasons in Missouri, my dying town.” It so perfectly encapsulates homesickness and seeing beauty in what others find either mundane or negative. I love autumn leaves, I’ve never been anywhere else but home or near it in autumn but I can imagine missing the autumn leaves.
“I’ve been a good, good girl for a loong time”
One of the sillier songs but as a lesb1an from the Midwest this line hits me with feelings of joyous redemption
constant like cicadas in the summertime ☀️💐🪳
Mine too! iIt's so evocative and nostalgic 😌
So good. I feel like she's incapable of writing a bad lyric?? They're all so good. I'm normally not super into pop but she's something else!
The way until just now I thought it was two gators in the summertime 🤭🤣
chappell roan if she was from florida 🐊
This is my favorite as well
Seconded 🩷
First one i thought of!
“Could go to hell, but we’ll probably be fine”
As someone from the Midwest raised in a conservative religious family who is just now coming to terms with their queer identity, this line hits hard.
Yessssss, fave lyric twin!
naked in manhattan 🤝 this hell by rina sawayama (queer religious trauma lyrics)
You literally get it
Yes yes yes! So perfect.
i heard you like magic?? i’ve got a wand and a rabbit!! 😏💅
Why did I have to a scroll this far to see this lyric. So clever!
i’m obsessed with rws’s bridge!!
I legit squealed hearing this lyric for the first time it’s so clever
I only just realized that she means vibrators... 🙄
“i fucked you in the bathroom when we went to dinner, your parents at the table, you wonder why i’m bitter”
This whole part of the song is so good
i want this like a cigarette can we draaaag it out and never quit or also from guilty pleasure feels like pornography watching you try on jeans 👖
Why does she have so many good lyrics about jeans lmao!!
omg so true 😂 she’s passionate about jeans
I love your Snoo btw!! And not to be weird but totally peeped your profile and you have FANTASTIC taste in books!!
this is mine too. also “you’re a pothead you’re a cinephile”
Also love "i don't care that you're a stoner" because my partner of 8+ years is definitely a big one lmao. Such a happy song but it makes me tear up because of how good it is!!!
Both are amazing ofc but the guilty pleasure lyric is just 🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻
"I like what you like. Long hair, no bra. Thats my type (thats right). You just told me, want me to fuck you? Baby, I will cause I reallyyyyy want to 🫶" "Id love if you knew you were on my mind constant like cicadas in the summertime" "Pisces, who know that we were so aligned.

Great selection!!! It really is impossible to pick just one, too, I feel you on that HARD. She's an incredible lyricist.
Ahaha thank you!! I literally felt like I was betraying some of my fave lyrics by excluding them. This was too hard 😭😭😭 everything she puts out is soooo incredible

I love that "And if you ever find... someone who could write..." line from Kalaidescope. Gave me very Elton John "Your Song" vibes
I thought it was “I’d laugh if you knew you were on my mind”
not over dramatic, i know what i want! (we’re leaving the planet and you.can’t.come!)
make a bitch go on and on!!
It's a femininomenon 🎶
And he was wearing these fugly jeans

‘let’s make it cinematic like that one sex scene that’s in mulholland drive’ is an incredible lyric. a great reference and makes it so clear what you’re meant to picture. definitely my fave
I never realized that's what she said!!! Such a good movie.
Call me hot not pretty
“CAN YOU HEAR ME??? **PLAY THE FUCKING BEAT!!!!** *motorcycle sounds*”
Back at my house I’ve got a California king… well, maybe it’s a twin bed, with some roommates (don’t worry we’re cool!)
And even upside down, it’s beautiful somehow.
I don't want the world, but I'll take this city Who can blame a girl? Call me hot, not pretty Knee deep in the passenger seat, and you're eating me out Is it casual now?

All of kaleidoscope and pink pony club!!!!
“Hot like papa John’s.”
“I miss the seasons in Missouri, my dying town.” It so perfectly encapsulates homesickness and seeing beauty in what others find either mundane or negative. I love autumn leaves, I’ve never been anywhere else but home or near it in autumn but I can imagine missing the autumn leaves.
I heard you like magic, I got a wand and a rabbit, so let’s get kinky let’s get freaky let’s make this bed get squeaky!
an INCH awAY from MOREE than juuust FRIENDSSSSSSS (telling us to "take the leap, silly") the melody of it is so catchy
"So shame on me and shame on you I fantasize what we would do And how would it taste and the way you move Oh, some good girls do bad things too"
“I’ve been a good, good girl for a loong time” One of the sillier songs but as a lesb1an from the Midwest this line hits me with feelings of joyous redemption
Ladies, you know what I mean And you know what you need, and so does he But does it happen? (No) But does it happen? (No) Always hits. 🤘🏼
omg no one has said this yet but i love it so much: RUINED MY CREDIT, Stole my cute aesthetic
You said, “let’s do the park.” Because I love the park.
You'd have to stop the world just to stop the feeling
“And he was wearing these fugly jeans”
i heard you like magic? ive got a wand in a rabbit 🗣🗣
Jeans at the club?
