[Intro]
Mmmh... oh
Shhh... step quiet...
Ah-ah, ah-ah...

[Verse 1]
Step one, let the heels click slow
No rush - they crave the echo
Eyes wide like they know the plot
But I flipped that script before they thought

Spotlight wants me - say less
Tempo rising, tight black dress
Hush, baby, don't catch feelings
This role's got twist-endings and ceilings

[Pre-Chorus]
All lines blurred, I’m not the same
I smile sweet - then burn the frame
You're watching close, afraid to guess
Who's the lead in this hot red mess?

[Chorus]
I'm the third act trouble - no cue card kiss
Plotline poison with a velvet twist
Curtains rise and I rewrite fate
You thought you knew me? Sit and wait

Oh-oh - trouble never comes too loud
It waits backstage with a perfect shroud
Center stage, I raise the stakes
Third act trouble, no retakes

[Verse 2]
Wrong time, wrong tone - I flip the vibe
Black lace lines and a villain's stride
Told you once, don't miscast this
I don't do cute - I do plot twists

Watch your back, I cue the sting
You wore the crown, but I pulled the string

[Pre-Chorus]
Hear the gasp when the scene rewinds
Pause - I rewrite your lines
Dress code deathwish, voice like wine
I exit slow just to blur the line

[Chorus]
I'm the third act trouble - lights go dim
My name alone could cut your film
One red look and the tale restarts
I hold your end in a glass of sparks

You chase the smoke, but I own the flame
I pull the rug, but you love the game
Take your seats, this isn't luck
Third act trouble - I don't duck

[Bridge]
What's a climax without fear?
What's a lead if not unclear?
My silence speaks like loaded steel
You'll feel it twist - before you kneel

[Chorus]
Third act trouble - kiss the crown
I wear the chaos like a satin gown
You wrote me soft, I came out mean
Not your girl, I'm the final scene

Oh-oh - spin the plot and tear the lace
Try to catch me, lose the chase
This is mine - the role, the fire
Third act trouble, your empire's liar
