Babygirl – Charli XCX


If you’re feeling real sad, just look on your wall

I’m your pin-up princess, yeah, you know who to call

Uh-huh, uh-huh

Uh-huh, uh-huh

I’ve got a million dollar smile, I can live in your dreams

With my angel wings and Fiorucci jeans

Uh-huh, uh-huh

Uh-huh, uh-huh

Close your eyes and lay back

Think about us, we could burn up the second we touch

Yeah, let your mind just relax

We could play rough, make your blood rush, velveteen brush

I’ll be your baby girl, your baby girl

I’ll be your baby girl, your baby girl

I’ll be your baby girl, your baby girl

I’ll be your baby girl, your baby girl

Gloss on my lips, pop, sun in my eyes

Go steal the liquor from inside

Wanna take a little sip with you

Wanna spend a little bit with you

Open the top, pop, drink in my glass

Here come the cop cops, better drink fast

Wanna take a little sip with you

Wanna spend a little bit with you

Just close your eyes and lay back

Think about us, we could burn up the second we fuck

Yeah, let your mind just relax

We could play rough, make your blood rush, velveteen brush

I’ll be your baby girl, your baby girl

I’ll be your baby girl, your baby girl

I’ll be your baby girl, your baby girl

I’ll be your baby girl, your baby girl

I’m hanging all alone

Let me live inside your world, hmm

More than a fantasy

Let me be your baby girl, hmm

I’ll be your baby girl, your baby girl

I’ll be your baby girl, your baby girl

I’ll be your baby girl, your baby girl

I’ll be your baby girl, your baby girl

I’ll be your baby girl, your baby girl

I’ll be your baby girl, your baby girl

I’ll be your baby girl, your baby girl

I’ll be your baby girl, your baby girl

Baby girl, your baby girl

I’ll be your baby girl, your baby girl

Baby girl, your baby girl (haha, sassy babes)

I’ll be your baby girl, your baby girl

Unpacking the Playful Persona of “Babygirl”

Charli XCX’s “Babygirl” is a flirtatious, dreamy anthem that captures the exhilarating rush of youthful infatuation. Through vivid imagery—like “angel wings and Fiorucci jeans”—the song paints a glossy, pop-culture-inspired fantasy. The repeated invitation to “close your eyes and lay back” sets a seductive, escapist tone, while the chorus promises unwavering devotion with the refrain, “I’ll be your baby girl.” Charli’s playful lyricism and confident delivery create a sense of both empowerment and vulnerability, as she toys with the roles of muse and rebel. The song’s infectious energy and catchy hooks make it an instant standout, channeling both nostalgia and modern pop attitude.
