Katy Perry – Playing House Lyrics

Should I stay or should I go?
I’ll keep the cat

Uh, uh, uh-uh, uh-uh, uh, uh

Can’t retract these claws
Once they’re out
You can’t stop me
I’m destructive and cocky
Till I fall like a jockey
Off my high horse and back …
[Pre-Chorus]
Zon, zigi-zon, zigi-zigi-di-zon

No promises in life, never give up the fight, no
Keep your head up real high ’cause only the strong survive
