Get ready to sink your teeth into “Baby Teeth,” the penultimate track on Ashnikko‘s sophomore album Smoochies, dropping October 17 with a tight 15-song lineup that’s already got everyone talking about her unfiltered return.
Fresh off the WEEDKILLER Tour and a string of bold singles like “Itty Bitty” and “Smoochie Girl,” Ashnikko poured her chaotic energy into this project starting back in 2023, wrapping it up this summer to chase that pure, joyful spark she felt early on. It’s a far cry from her debut’s fantasy world-building – think less elf quests, more raw, slutty confessions wrapped in pop hooks and crackly bass that hit like a sugar rush.
“Baby Teeth” slots right into the album’s vibe of reclaiming the messy parts of yourself, with its title nodding to Ashnikko’s real-life obsession with collecting her actual baby teeth as quirky talismans. In a recent chat, she geeked out over snagging them from her mom, turning those little relics into symbols of holding onto your weird, unpolished edges amid all the gloss. Picture bouncy instrumentals that bounce between vulgar laughs and vulnerable digs at the “It Girl” trap – that exhausting chase for perfection she wants to torch for good. Fans are already piecing together how it echoes the euphoric flex of “Trinkets,” where she riffs on DIY jewelry and street-found treasures, or the gritty edge of “Full Frontal.”
Dive into the Baby Teeth lyrics below and unpack its quirky bite. Don’t miss other Smoochies tracks like Trinkets for more of Ashnikko’s euphoric chaos.
Lyrics of Baby Teeth by Ashnikko
[Verse 1]
No More Altars To Your Name
Every Part Of Me That You Touched Has Changed
Everything Alkalised Like Clay
The Place Where I Kept You Is Gone
Knew From The Beginning What It Was
F**kin’ On The Top Floor Of My Tour Bus
We Were On Some Pop Star Shit
That’s What I Was Afraid Of
[Chorus]
Sometimes I Go Full Delusion
Dancing With Phantoms Again
The Body, It Was Turning Blueish
Carving A Hole In My Chest
When I’m With You, I Can’t Hear The Music
My Mouth Moves, But There Is No Sound
And It Kills Me That I Have To Do This
Tie A String To The Door
Like Baby Teeth, We Should Fall Out
[Post-Chorus]
(Ooh-ooh)
My Baby Teeth
(Ooh-ooh)
[Verse 2]
I Loved You In Dog Years, How Sweet
Two Years Felt Like Fourteen
Hate That I’m Gonna Be Okay
Someone Else Will Love Me Without A Choke Chain
But I’m Not Ready For A Soul-search
I Pretend It Isn’t Over
[Chorus]
Sometimes I Go Full Delusion
Dancing With Phantoms Again
The Body, It Was Turning Blueish
Carving A Hole In My Chest
When I’m With You, I Can’t Hear The Music
My Mouth Moves, But There Is No Sound
And It Kills Me That I Have To Do This
Tie A String To The Door
Like Baby Teeth, We Should Fall Out
[Post-Chorus]
(Ooh-ooh)
My Baby Teeth
(Ooh-ooh)
[Outro]
Forever Chained You’ll Be
(Ooh-ooh)
I’ll Always Love My Baby Teeth
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
