- Helen Of Troy (Lyrics) -
You’ve heard it all before —
one minute I was killing ‘em all
And the next, a brown suit wouldn’t let me perform
Typical
So I took a happy face
And it’s coming on like a charm
I don’t wanna get lost, I wanna worship the sun
If you want, you can come
I’m in my own little golden age
But it’s such a pill when they don’t appreciate
So when you smoke that cigarette
Or when you talk shit ‘bout an old friend
I know it’s hard, but do your best
Give yourself a break, have a little faith
Let’s hear it for the girls, living in the modern world
They’re banging on the door —
“Everyone please make way for the girl who looks like she flew in from outer space
Yesterday”
I think I’ll wait it out
My little thing is keeping ’em keen
They could be drinking with you, but they’ll be looking at me
This whole time, I been playing it coy
The city’s falling for me just like I’m Helen of Troy
So when you’re broke, can’t get ahead
Or when you take it out on your boyfriend
I know it’s hard, but do your best
Give yourself a break, have a little faith
Let’s hear it for the girls, living in the modern world

This is a really clever song. It's kind of about how fairly well-off people (including herself) like to pretend their lives are hard and challenging when they have it pretty easy. Lorde said in her email that she wrote it kind of quickly for a laugh, which I can see - it's basically light-hearted satire. One of my favorites from the album honestly.

Lorde dropping extra songs like this give me the vibes of Pure Heroin’s extended songs when she dropped those.

“HOT is just me talking trash to make Jack laugh, basically. We wrote it super quickly in the tiniest room at Westlake where we did a bunch of Melo and it was fun the whole time. It’s super off the cuff lyrically, almost ad-libbed, and you can hear me starting to figure out some album themes — “So I took a happy face, and it’s coming on like a charm / I don’t wanna get lost, I wanna worship the sun / and if you want, you can come”.” -ella

"I’m in my own little golden age, but it’s such a pill when they don’t appreciate" It's like she predicted how the critics were going to receive her album. Love it!
