"Dark Horse" lyrics

"Dark Horse"
(feat. Juicy J)

Oh, no

[Juicy J:]
Yeah
Ya'll know what it is
Katy Perry
Juicy J, aha
Let's rage

[Katy Perry:]
I knew you were
You were gonna come to me
And here you are
But you better choose carefully
'Cause I, I'm capable of anything
Of anything and everything

Make me your Aphrodite
Make me your one and only
But don't make me your enemy, your enemy, your enemy

So you wanna play with magic?
Boy, you should know what you're falling for
Baby, do you dare to do this?
'Cause I'm coming at you like a dark horse

Are you ready for, ready for
A perfect storm, perfect storm?
'Cause once you're mine, once you're mine
There is no going back

Mark my words
This love will make you levitate
Like a bird
Like a bird without a cage
But down to earth
If you choose to walk away, don't walk away

It's in the palm of your hand now, baby
It's a "yes" or "no", no "maybe"
So just be sure before you give it all to me
All to me, give it all to me

So you wanna play with magic?
Boy, you should know what you're falling for
Baby, do you dare to do this?
'Cause I'm coming at you like a dark horse

Are you ready for, ready for
A perfect storm, perfect storm?
'Cause once you're mine, once you're mine (love trippin')
There's no going back

[Juicy J:]
Uh
She's a beast
I call her "Karma" (come back)
She eats your heart out
Like Jeffrey Dahmer (woo)
Be careful
Try not to lead her on
Shorty's heart is on steroids
'Cause her love is so strong

You may fall in love
When you meet her
If you get the chance you better keep her
She's sweet as pie but if you break her heart
She'll turn cold as a freezer
That fairy-tale ending with a knight in shining armor
She can be my Sleeping Beauty
I'm gon' put her in a coma
Woo!

Damn I think I love her
Shorty so bad, I'm sprung and I don't care
She ride me like a roller-coaster
Turned the bedroom into a fair (a fair!)
Her love is like a drug
I was tryna hit it and quit it
But lil' mama so dope
I messed around and got addicted

[Katy Perry:]
So you wanna play with magic?
Boy, you should know what you're falling for (you should know)
Baby, do you dare to do this?
'Cause I'm coming at you like a dark horse (like a dark horse)

Are you ready for, ready for (ready for)
A perfect storm, perfect storm (a perfect storm)?
'Cause once you're mine, once you're mine (mine)
There's no going back

'Dark Horse' is the third single from her fourth studio album, Prism. Juicy J said about this collaboration in an interview with the New York Post, "I was totally shocked, but when I first heard the beat — I got goose bumps… Katy liked the verse I did on Mike Will Made It's '23'. She keeps her ear to the street and keeps up with what's going on. Katy's smart like that."
The song has been the subject of a copyright infringement lawsuit from the Christian rapper Flame claimed this song to be almost identical to his "Joyful Noise". The description in the lawsuit says, "The devoutly religious message of 'Joyful Noise' has been irreparably tarnished by its association with the witchcraft, paganism, black magic, and Illuminati imagery evoked by the same music in 'Dark Horse'."
The video for this track won "Best Female Video" at the MTV Video Music Awards.
