## Audio

"**Babygirl**" is the 8th track on Charli XCX's third mixtape Number 1 Angel. It features british singer Uffie.

## Background

Charli wrote the song in 2015 in Sweden, on a writing camp with John Mill, MNDR and Sarah Hudson, and recorded a demo for the song. After Charli and Uffie met in a house party in 2017, they stayed in touch and Charli sent her the song so she can send her verse back.

## Theme

“Babygirl” is Charli entertaining a sexually-charged fantasy. Speaking directly to the listener, she implicates them in her plans by continually referring to “you” and “us.” Guest vocalist Uffie adds to this illusion with her verse.

[Verse 1: 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

[Pre-Chorus: Charli XCX]

Close your eyes and lay back (Mhm)

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

[Chorus: Charli XCX]

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

[Verse 2: Uffie]

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

[Pre-Chorus: Charli XCX]

Just close your eyes and lay back (Mhm)

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

[Chorus: Charli XCX]

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

[Bridge: Charli XCX & Uffie]

I'm hanging all alone

Let me live inside your world (Hmm)

More than a fantasy

Let me be your baby girl (Hmm)

[Chorus: Charli XCX]

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

[Outro: Charli XCX & Uffie]

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

[Verse 2]

You can take me on a date in your imagination

And she bop, she bop in your parents' basement

Uh-huh, uh-huh (Yeah)

Yeah, uh-huh, uh-huh

And you can tell all your boys that I'm your honeycomb

I'll put your sugar on my tongue when we're all alone

Uh-huh, uh-huh (Mhm)

Uh-huh, uh-huh

[Pre-Chorus 2]

Just close your eyes and lay back (Mhm)

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

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
