Known for her candid storytelling and dramatic pop aesthetic, Chappell tells off an ex who couldn’t handle the truth of who she is or what she felt. The song gained popularity due to its confident lyrics, intense delivery, and a catchy chorus that left listeners stunned, along with its raw lyrics about sexuality and existentialism. Produced by Dan Nigro (of Olivia Rodrigo fame), Good Luck, Babe! is a tale of new freedom after heartbreak and learning compounded with queerness and complete bopitude.

Good Luck Babe Lyrics
It’s fine, it’s cool
You can say that we are nothing, but you know the truth
And guess I’m the fool
With her arms out like an angel through the car sunroof
I don’t wanna call it off
But you don’t wanna call it love
You only wanna be the one that I call “baby”
You can kiss a hundred boys in bars
Shoot another shot, try to stop the feeling
You can say it’s just the way you are
Make a new excuse, ‘nother stupid reason
Good luck, babe (Well, good luck)
Well, good luck, babe (Well, good luck)
You’d have to stop the world just to stop the feeling
Good luck, babe (Well, good luck)
Well, good luck, babe (Well, good luck)
You’d have to stop the world just to stop the feeling
I’m cliché, who cares?
It’s a sexually explicit kind of love affair
And I cry, it’s not fair
I just need a little lovin’, I just need a little air
Think I’m gonna call it off
Even if you call it love
I just wanna love someone who calls me “baby”
You can kiss a hundred boys in bars
Shoot another shot, try to stop the feeling
You can say it’s just the way you are
Make a new excuse, ‘nother stupid reason
Good luck, babe (Well, good luck)
Well, good luck, babe (Well, good luck)
You’d have to stop the world just to stop the feeling
Good luck, babe (Well, good luck)
Well, good luck, babe (Well, good luck)
You’d have to stop the world just to stop the feeling
Ah, ah-yeah, oh
When you wake up next to him in the middle of the night
With your head in your hands, you’re nothing more than his wife
And when you think about me all of those years ago
You’re standing face to face with “I told you so”
You know I hate to say, I told you so
You know I hate to say, but I told you so
You can kiss a hundred boys in bars
Shoot another shot, try to stop the feeling (Well, I told you so)
You can say it’s just the way you are
Make a new excuse, ‘nother stupid reason
Good luck, babe (Well, good luck)
Well, good luck, babe (Well, good luck)
You’d have to stop the world just to stop the feeling
Good luck, babe (Well, good luck)
Well, good luck, babe (Well, good luck)
You’d have to stop the world just to stop the feeling
You’d have to stop the world just to stop the feeling
You’d have to stop the world just to stop the feeling
You’d have to stop the world just to stop the feeling
