"Disco Baby" is a song by Ayesha Erotica recorded in either 2017 or 2018. It leaked on September 3rd, 2019.[1]
Background & Theme[]
The song was commissioned by frequent music client and performance artist, Danica Anna Uskert-Quinn. In her request, Danica specified for a “breakup song” to be written to reflect dissatisfaction and tension within a personal relationship, with such themes subsequently taking precedence in the song’s lyrics.[1]
The song was later used to soundtrack one of Danica's adult films on March 19th, 2018.[1]
On December 27th, 2023, Ayesha was asked about her thoughts on the song. She replied: "boring and gwen stefani".[2]
Lyrics[]
[Verse 1]
A wreck in G minor
I think I love the glitter more than you
These sequin tears will dry
As soon as I know where we're headed to
[Refrain]
I never knew that it would end like this
Rollin' your eyes, ballin' your fists
I thought that we could talk it out and kiss
But you don't wanna dance with me anymore
[Pre-Chorus]
It don't feel right
All these mirror balls are crashing
We were skintight together
It seems our seams are bursted
[Chorus]
You ain't my disco baby
Dancing in strobes until we fell
Sex, love, and disco, baby
How can we dance when you're in hell?
[Verse 2]
A mess in rhinestone boots
A line would come in handy about now
Blood on the bathroom floor
I swear I'll fix this, fix this night somehow
[Refrain]
I never knew that it would end like this
Rollin' your eyes, ballin' your fists
I thought that we could talk it out and kiss
But you don't wanna dance with me anymore
[Pre-Chorus]
It don't feel right
All these mirror balls are crashing
We were skintight together
It seems our seams are bursted
[Chorus]
You ain't my disco baby
Dancing in strobes until we fell
Sex, love, and disco, baby
How can we dance when you're in hell?
[Bridge]
We were a picture of perfection
Polaroids, afterparty
I miss your bump and grind
Tell me, do you miss my glitterati?
I know you think of me whenever you hear music, baby
I think of you when I'm in bathrooms with the users, baby
[Pre-Chorus]
It don't feel right
All these mirror balls are crashing
We were skintight together
It seems our seams are bursted
[Chorus]
You ain't my disco baby
Dancing in strobes until we fell
Sex, love, and disco, baby
How can we dance when you're in hell?
[Outro]
How can we dance when you're in hell?
How can we dance when you're in hell?
(How can we dance when you're in hell?)
