Tras su lanzamiento, apareció en varias listas de reproducción de Spotify y listas virales, y posteriormente alcanzó el número uno en 17 países, incluidos Alemania y el Reino Unido, donde permaneció en el número uno durante cuatro semanas consecutivas.

## Antecedentes

En una entrevista, Max le dijo a *Idolator*:

"Creo que para mí personalmente, tengo muchos lados. Creo que todos tienen muchos lados y se trata básicamente de una chica que no tiene miedo de mostrar todos sus lados y sus dualidades, y de un chico que ama todos esos lados. Es una chica incomprendida en la relación, y básicamente le dicen que es una psicópata y que está loca cuando lo siente, pero en realidad es una chica franca y dice lo que piensa. Y así es como soy en realidad vida."

## Letra

* Oficial
* Demo

**[Chorus]**

Oh, she's sweet but a psycho

A little bit psycho

At night she's screamin', "I'm-ma-ma-ma out my mind"

Oh, she's hot but a psycho

So left but she's right though

At night she's screamin', "I'm-ma-ma-ma out my mind"

**[Verse 1]**

She'll make you curse, but she a blessing

She'll rip your shirt within a second

You'll be coming back, back for seconds

With your plate, you just can't help it

**[Pre-Chorus]**

No, no

You'll play alo-o-ong, let her lead you o-o-on

You'll be saying, "No, no"

Then saying, "Yes, yes, yes," 'cause she messin' with your head (With your head)

**[Chorus]**

Oh, she's sweet but a psycho

A little bit psycho

At night she's screamin', "I'm-ma-ma-ma out my mind"

Oh, she's hot but a psycho

So left but she's right though

At night she's screamin', "I'm-ma-ma-ma out my mind"

**[Post-Chorus]**

Grab a cop gun kinda crazy

She's poison but tasty

Yeah, people say, "Run, don't walk away"

'Cause she's sweet but a psycho

A little bit psycho

At night she's screamin', "I'm-ma-ma-ma out my mind"

**[Verse 2]**

See, someone said, "Don't drink her potions

She'll kiss your neck with no emotion

When she's mean, you know you love it

'Cause she tastes so sweet, don't sugarcoat it"

**[Pre-Chorus]**

No, no

You'll play alo-o-ong, let her lead you o-o-on

You'll be saying, "No (No, no, no), no (No)"

Then saying, "Yes, yes, yes," 'cause she messin' with your head (With your head, ah-ah-ah)

**[Chorus]**

Oh, she's sweet but a psycho

A little bit psycho

At night she's screamin', "I'm-ma-ma-ma out my mind"

Oh, she's hot but a psycho

So left but she's right though

At night she's screamin', "I'm-ma-ma-ma out my mind"

**[Post-Chorus]**

Grab a cop gun kinda crazy

She's poison but tasty

Yeah, people say, "Run, don't walk away"

'Cause she's sweet but a psycho

A little bit psycho

At night she's screamin', "I'm-ma-ma-ma out my mind"

**[Bridge]**

You're just like me, you're out your mind

I know it's strange, we're both the crazy kind

You're tellin' me that I'm insane

Boy, don't pretend that you don't love the pain

**[Chorus]**

Oh, she's sweet but a psycho

A little bit psycho

At night she's screamin', "I'm-ma-ma-ma out my mind"

Oh, she's hot but a psycho

So left but she's right though

At night she's screamin', "I'm-ma-ma-ma out my mind" ("I'm-ma-ma-ma out my mind")

**[Post-Chorus]**

Grab a cop gun kinda crazy

She's poison but tasty

Yeah, people say "Run, don't walk away" ("Run, don't walk away")

'Cause she's sweet but a psycho

A little bit psycho (Oh, a little bit psycho)

At night she's screamin', "I'm-ma-ma-ma out my mind"

**[Intro]**

When you lie and cheat

To a woman who's sweet

I really must forewarn you

There is no doubt, the psycho will come out

And in your dreams, she'll haunt
