LYRICS: "If Looks Could Kill"
Tell me where it all went wrong
Maybe I can make it better
Tell me where it all went wrong
Don't you know that you really upset her?
When you act like a man who is cross with every woman he's never had
If it's true looks could kill and you will be the first to make me mad
Then you'll have to go
Is this the kind of fate you could contemplate?
A breakdown at my very sight
I promise hidden words of tenderness in every single line that I write
Still you act like a man who is cross with every woman he's never had
If it's true looks could kill and you will be the first to make me mad
Then you'll have to go
Maybe you'll have to go
Is it true looks can kill?
Is it true looks can kill?
Is it true looks can kill?
**Updated lyrics (2023) version:*
If looks could kill
Baby, I'm the fashion demon
Ridin' down Candler Road and I'm speedin'
I got hella hoes tryna fuck me and my bros (my bros)
I got hella shows lined up, I'm on the road (on the road)
I get hella green, yeah, I get hella 'chos (hella 'chos)
These niggas green as fuck, I'm 'bout to get over (get over)
No, bitch, I'm not greenin' out, you can not get over (can't get over)
I just like to ball hard, ball like Dellavedova (Dellavedova)
Don't shop at Dover's, don't shop at Nieman's (nah, nah)
Don't commit treason (nah)
Everything I do is for a reason
Everything I do is so strategic (is so strategic)
Baby, please don't leave me, I don't need you
And I know that you don't need me
I done got the flyest, I'm on a date with the moon this evening
She act cool but I know she evil, so deceiving (so deceiving)
If looks could kill that makes every day Halloween, man (it's Halloween)
I get bitches, I don't need no wingman (no wingman)
I get riches, I don't sell no weed, man (not right now)
I smoke dope by the pound, yeah, for real, huh
I'm on the top of the mountain, king of the hill, uh (we top floor)
I don't like no Swisher, I like Grabba Leaf, lil' nigga (grabba, grabba, grabba)
Real deal codeine sipper, walk 'round with a purple liver, huh
I'm a fashion killer, I'm a shit popper, babe (shit popper, popper)
I'm a real big baller but won't let no lil' bitch play with me
I'm a pussy killer after I hit it, might let her lay with me
She a fashion killer, check out how she walkin'
Yeah, look, she slayin' it
My boy got a trigger finger
He ready to pull it, so please don't play with him
I smoke 'til my lungs black, lil' bitch
I take that lil' blunt and I face that shit (face it)
I look at my demons and face 'em (face 'em)
Take the Chrome Heart Timbs and I lace 'em
I'm walkin' through Hell
I got an FN loaded up with a laser
My bitch rockin' Chanel, I put on Balenciaga for all of my haters
I gotta go, bitch, I'll see you later (go)
I'm the Dark Lord, real soul taker
I'm the Top Floor Boss, a lil' player (boss)
I put on big pants, real deal raver (real raver)
(Rave, raver)
Baby, I'm the fashion demon
Ridin' down Candler Road and I'm speedin' (speedin')
I got hella hoes tryna fuck me and my bros (my bros)
I got hella shows lined up, I'm on the road (on the road)
I get hella green, yeah, I get hella 'chos (hella 'chos)
These niggas green as fuck, I'm 'bout to get over (get over)
No, bitch, I'm not greenin' out, you can not get over (can't get over)
I just like to ball hard, ball like Dellavedova (Dellavedova)
Don't shop at Dover's, don't shop at Nieman's (nah, nah)
Don't commit treason (nah)
Everything I do is for a reason
Everything I do is so strategic (is so strategic)
Baby, please don't leave me, I don't need you
And I know that you don't need me
I done got the flyest, I'm on a date with the moon this evening (yeah)
She act cool but I know she evil, so deceiving (so deceiving)
If looks could kill that makes every day Halloween, man (it's Halloween)
Love this band. RIP Carey. 8 years too long.
Fuck, this band makes me tear up for so many reasons.
i've always loved the great 'wall of sound' feel to this song, its phil without his spectre.
Totally agree. The recording engineers did a fabulous job on this whole record.The live performances of any song from this album, while still great songs, just don't sound as....spectacular.
In this case, it's The Hoover Dam of Sound
I hear The Supremes or The Jam "A Town Called Malice". I just discovered this band this week and they are all I want to hear.
Love the winsome, soulfully sad quality of Tracyanne's voice & the nostalgic feel of this track.
Tell me where it all went wrong
Maybe I can make it better
Tell me where it all went wrong
Don't you know that you really upset her
When you act like a man who is cross with every woman he's never had
If it's true looks could kill, and you will be the first to make me mad
Then you'll have to go
Is this the kind of fate you could contemplate?
A breakdown at my very sight
I promise hidden words of tenderness in every single line that I write
Still you act like a man who is cross with every woman he's never had
If it's true looks could kill, and you will be the first to make me mad
Then you'll have to go
Maybe you'll have to go
Is it true looks can kill?
Is it true looks can kill?
Is it true looks can kill?
This song is a masterpiece.
It's as if the song always existed.
This track has the sound of music coming out of the speakers at a '60's Tulsa State Fair, at night. Distorted, urgent, exciting, gorgeous.
Esta pista tiene el sonido de la música que sale de los parlantes en la feria estatal de tulsa de los años 60, por la noche Distorsionado urgente, emocionante, hermosa,
one of their best tracks ever
One of THE best tracks ever!
This song is so happy that makes me sad.
This is the greatest love song in history. Got bless you Carey. Always gives me goosebumps. xxx
Back in highschool some girl I liked made me a cd with this song, didnt work out but I did get to listen to this and its been a guilty pleasure for over a decade. It hits me right in the nostalgia every time
Our homie Clem skated to this song. We miss him dearly🧡
I love you forever, Carey!
Such a loss....very sad.
underrated masterpiece
So many years later and this is still such a an important track in my life, thank you always Carey.
I love the expression that's always on her face. Sort of "Fuck of" but at the same time "god this hurts so much without you."
When you act like a man who's cross with every woman he's never had. Great lyric !
Absolutely superb song !!! ... Should be a million-seller, instead of all the inferior material that somehow makes the charts big-time ... There's no justice in the world ... Wayne
Carey Lander you are always be in my heart ❤ March 20th, 2010
I've only just got into this band and it is so sad to find out that Carey passed away :(
Wait what?? Ive loved them since 2011 and i didnt know about this..
Heard this for the first time today on someone’s fave song list on The Spectrum XM station. Fell in love. Can’t stop playing it. Love the scratchiness and the 60’s sound and melodies.
The perfect pop song in my view
Camera Obscura has several "perfect pop songs" :) I think my favorite of theirs is "lloyd, I'm ready to be heartbroken"
3 minutes of pure pop ...
Fuck this song brings out so many nostalgic emotions. I love it but it still fucking kills me..
I promise hidden words of tenderness in every single line that I write .-
this is the very first song that introduced me to indie music back in 2010!!!! forever loving this tune, this band
What a great band .... RIP Carey .
This is what talent sounds like.
Singing in the round really makes a song stand out for me...I feel like from a songwriting POV it's really difficult to write two or three concurrent melodies against the same chord progressions and make it sound good as Camera Obscura do.
I could dance this song forever
OOOWW How many things I lived with this song... years since i've heard it... I still love it...
Wow what an amazing song, Greys Anatomy brought me here in 2020, it could almost pass for Northern Soul!
🎵 Always something there to remind me 🎶
Lunes, 29\de abril 2019 ...aún sigo escuchando a Carey 💓
good-dreamy perfect song
Another jem!
So awesome.
Love this band
LOVE THIS SONG!!
Legendary
amazing song
bloody brilliant
what a tune.
Why in the holy secret name of god himself couldn’t i be in a reality where I could be the one that makes Tracy Ann smile everyday. I’ll get you back for that god! 👊
Love it and them.
es realmente motivadora..
REST EASY CAREY!

Great song - one of the best. But have you ever heard it played on BBC Radio 2? Once on Radcliffe and Maconnie's ex- show and that's about it......

"I know i can make it better"
†RVSTY TEVSPOON† hey i dunno if i got what you really meant but just incase have been in the desert for a decade and this band kept me alive. Its sad a bit though coz lots of friends already passed since and atleast im not that place now. Happy memories though.
Pinche made, hace tres años no sabía ni verga de ésta deliciosa banda. Me lo perdí.
@joshuaperris si wey, ya vinieron tres veces, en 2007, en 2009 y en 2010, yo los vi en 2009, a poco no supiste?
