Lyrics of Milk and Cookies by Melanie Martinez
verse
One, two, melatonin is coming for you
Three, four, baby, won′t you lock the door?
Five, six, I'm done with this
Seven, eight, it′s getting late, so close your eyes, sleep for days
Hush, little baby, drink your spoiled milk
I'm fucking crazy, need my prescription filled
Do you like my cookies? They're made just for you
A little bit of sugar, but lots of poison, too
chorus
Ashes, ashes, time to go down
Ooh, honey do you want me now?
Can′t take it anymore, need to put you to bed
Sing you a lullaby where you die at the end
Da-da, da, da-da-da, da-da-da
Da, da, da-da-da-da, da-da
verse
Nine, ten, never wanna see you again
Eleven, twelve, I pull off black so well
Shit behind the curtain that I′m sick of sugarcoatin'
Next time you′re alone, think twice when you grab the phone
chorus
Ashes, ashes, time to go down
Ooh, honey do you want me now?
Can't take it anymore, need to put you to bed
Sing you a lullaby where you die at the end
Da-da, da, da-da-da, da-da-da
Da, da, da-da-da-da, da-da
bridge
Da-da, da, da-da-da, da-da-da
Da, da, da-da-da-da, da-da
Da-da, da, da-da-da, da-da-da
Da, da, da-da-da-da, da-da
chorus
Ashes, ashes, time to go down
Ooh, honey do you want me now?
Can′t take it anymore, need to put you to bed
Sing you a lullaby where you die at the end
Da-da, da, da-da-da, da-da-da
Da, da, da-da-da-da, da-da
