Sobre el álbum
El EP que en 2017 inauguró oficialmente la discografía de Billie Eilish, "Don't Smile at Me", es mucho más que una simple colección de canciones; es el anteproyecto de una de las revoluciones más importantes del pop del siglo XXI. Con este trabajo la jovencísima artista y su hermano, el productor Finneas O'Connell, establecieron las bases de un sonido completamente nuevo y original.
Impulsado por el éxito viral del tema "Ocean Eyes", el EP presenta un pop minimalista, oscuro y electrónico. La producción se caracteriza por sus ritmos sutiles, sus bajos profundos y sus texturas atmosféricas, creando el lienzo perfecto para la voz susurrante e íntima de Billie Eilish. Su sonido se desmarcó de inmediato del pop convencional de la época.
Las letras ya mostraban una madurez y un ingenio sorprendentes, explorando el desamor y la ansiedad con una perspectiva irónica y a menudo sombría. "Don't Smile at Me" es un debut extraordinario que no solo la puso en el mapa, sino que además redefinió el "bedroom pop" para la era del streaming, presentando a una artista con una visión única.

Letra
Don't be cautious, don't be kind You're committed, I'm your crime Push my button anytime You got your finger on the trigger, but your trigger finger's mine Silver dollar, golden flame Dirty water, poison rain Perfect murder, take your aim I don't belong to anyone, but everybody knows my name By the way You've been uninvited 'Cause all you say Are all the same things I did Copycat trying to cop my manner Watch your back when you can't watch mine Copycat trying to cop my glamour Why so sad, bunny, can't have mine? Call me calloused, call me cold You're italic, I'm in bold Call me cocky, watch your tone You better love me 'cause you're just a clone By the way You've been uninvited 'Cause all you say Are all the same things I did Copycat trying to cop my manner Watch your back when you can't watch mine Copycat trying to cop my glamour Why so sad, bunny, can't have mine? Mine I would hate to see you go Hate to be the one that told you so You just crossed the line You've run out of time I'm so sorry, now you know Sorry I'm the one that told you so Sorry, sorry, I'm sorry, sorry Psych! By the way You've been uninvited 'Cause all you say Are all the same things I did Copycat trying to cop my manner Watch your back when you can't watch mine Copycat trying to cop my glamour Why so sad, bunny, can't have mine? - Idontwannabeyouanymore3:23
Letra
Don't be that way Fall apart twice a day I just wish you could feel what you say Show, never tell But I know you too well Kind of mood that you wish you could sell If teardrops could be bottled There'd be swimming pools filled by models Told a tight dress is what makes you a whore If I love you was a promise Would you break it if you're honest? Tell the mirror what you know she's heard before I don't wanna be you anymore Hands getting cold Losing feelings, getting old Was I made from a broken mold? Hurt, I can't shake We've made every mistake Only you know the way that I break If teardrops could be bottled There'd be swimming pools filled by models Told a tight dress is what makes you a whore If I love you was a promise Would you break it if you're honest? Tell the mirror what you know she's heard before I don't wanna be you I don't wanna be you I don't wanna be you anymore - My Boy2:50
Letra
My boy's being sus', he was shady enough But now he's just a shadow My boy loves his friends like I love my split ends And by that I mean He cuts 'em off (What?) My boy, my boy, my boy Don't love me like he promised My boy, my boy, my boy He ain't a man and sure as hell ain't honest My boy's being sus' and he don't know how to cuss He just sounds like he's tryna be his father (Who are you?) My boy's an ugly crier but he's such a pretty liar And by that I mean He said he'd change My boy, my boy, my boy Don't love me like he promised My boy, my boy, my boy He ain't a man and sure as hell ain't honest My boy My, my boy, my boy I love, love I, I love, love my split ends My boy My, my boy, my boy I love, love Love, love, love, love (Alright dude, go trip over a knife) My boy, my boy, my boy Don't love me like he promised My boy, my boy, my boy He ain't a man and sure as hell ain't honest You want me to be yours, well, then you gotta be mine And if you want a good girl, then goodbye You want me to be yours, well, then you gotta be mine And if you want a good girl, then goodbye - Watch2:57
Letra
Lips meet teeth and tongue My heart skips eight beats at once If we were meant to be, we would have been by now See what you wanna see, but all I see is him right now I'll sit and watch your car burn With the fire that you started in me But you never came back to ask it out Go ahead and watch my heart burn With the fire that you started in me But I'll never let you back to put it out Your love feels so fake And my demands aren't high to make If I could get to sleep, I would have slept by now Your lies will never keep, I think you need to blow 'em out I'll sit and watch your car burn With the fire that you started in me But you never came back to ask it out Go ahead and watch my heart burn With the fire that you started in me But I'll never let you back to put it out When you call my name Do you think I'll come runnin'? You never did the same So good at givin' me nothin' When you close your eyes, do you picture me? When you fantasize, am I your fantasy? Now you know Now I'm free I'll sit and watch your car burn With the fire that you started in me But you never came back to ask it out Watch my heart burn With the fire that you started in me But I'll never let you back to put it out Never let you back Let you back, let you back Never gonna let you back Let you back - Party Favor3:24
Letra
Hey, leave a message Hey, call me back When you get this Or when you've got a minute We really need to talk Wait, you know what Maybe just forget it Cause by the time you get this Your number might be blocked Stay and blah blah blah You just want what you can't have No way, I'll call the cops If you don't stop I'll call your dad And I hate to do this to you on your birthday Happy birthday by the way It's not you, it's me and all that other bullshit You know that's bullshit Don't you, babe? I'm not your party favor Look, now I know we could've done it better But we can't change the weather And the weather's come and gone Books don't make sense if you read them backwards You'll single out the wrong words Like you mishear all my songs You stay and blah blah blah You just want what you can't have No way, I'll call the cops If you don't stop I'll call your dad And I hate to do this to you on your birthday Happy birthday by the way It's not you, it's me and all that other bullshit You know that's bullshit Don't you, babe? I'm not your party favor - Bellyache2:59
Sittin' all alone Mouth full of gum In the driveway My friends aren't far In the back of my car Lay their bodies Where's my mind? Where's my mind? They'll be here pretty soon Lookin' through my room for the money I'm bitin' my nails I'm too young to go to jail It's kinda funny Where's my mind? Where's my mind? Where's my mind? Where's my mind? Maybe it's in the gutter Where I left my lover What an expensive fate My V is for Vendetta Thought that I'd feel better But now I got a bellyache Everything I do The way I wear my noose Like a necklace I wanna make 'em scared Like I could be anywhere Like I'm reckless I lost my mind I don't mind Where's my mind? Where's my mind? Maybe it's in the gutter Where I left my lover What an expensive fate My V is for Vendetta Thought that I'd feel better But now I got a bellyache Maybe it's in the gutter Where I left my lover What an expensive fate My V is for Vendetta Thought that I'd feel better But now I got a bellyache - Ocean Eyes3:20
I've been watching you for some time Can't stop staring at those ocean eyes Burning cities and napalm skies Fifteen flares inside those ocean eyes Your ocean eyes No fair You really know how to make me cry When you give me those ocean eyes I'm scared I've never fallen from quite this high Falling into your ocean eyes Those ocean eyes I've been walking through a world gone blind Can't stop thinking of your diamond mind Careful creature made friends with time You left her lonely with a diamond mind And those ocean eyes No fair You really know how to make me cry When you gimme those ocean eyes I'm scared I've never fallen from quite this high Falling into your ocean eyes Those ocean eyes No fair You really know how to make me cry When you gimme those ocean eyes I'm scared I've never fallen from quite this high Falling into your ocean eyes Those ocean eyes - Hostage3:39
I wanna be alone Alone with you, does that make sense? I wanna steal your soul And hide you in my treasure chest I don't know what to do To do with your kiss on my neck I don't know what feels true But this feels right so stay a sec Yeah, you feel right so stay a sec And let me crawl inside your veins I'll build a wall, give you a ball and chain It's not like me to be so mean You're all I wanted Just let me hold you Like a hostage Gold on your fingertips Fingertips against my cheek Gold leaf across your lips Kiss me until I can't speak Gold chain beneath your shirt The shirt that you let me wear home Gold's fake and real love hurts But nothing hurts when I'm alone When you're with me and we're alone And let me crawl inside your veins I'll build a wall, give you a ball and chain It's not like me to be so mean You're all I wanted Just let me hold you, hold you Like a hostage Like a hostage
