Royals—Lorde

Karson 2022-04-23 07:01:39

I've never seen a diamond in the flesh,

I cut my teeth on wedding rings in the movies,

And I'm not proud of my address, in the torn up town, never proud of my address in this ruined city

No post code envy, no postcode to be proud of,

But every song's like gold teeth,

grey goose, trippin' in the bathroom,

Blood stains, ball gowns, trashin' the hotel room

We don't care, we're driving cadillacs in our dreams.

But everybody's like cristal, maybach, but everybody's talking about crystal limousines,

diamonds on your time piece. Diamond-encrusted watches, Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash. Private jet vacation islands and tigers in gold chains,

We don't care, we aren't caught up in your love affair. We don't care that it has nothing to do with us.

And we'll never be royals..

It don't run in our blood, royal blood doesn't run in us,

that kind of lux just ain't for us.

We crave a different kind of buzz. We just crave a different atmosphere,

Let me be your ruler, you can call me queen B,

And baby I'll rule I'll rule I'll rule I'll rule. And I'll rule,

Let me live that fantasy.

My friends and I we've cracked the code. My friends and I decided to break the status quo,

We count our dollars on the train to the party.

And everyone who knows us knows,

that we're fine with this, we've grown accustomed to being poor,

we didn't come from money. We didn't live for money,

Let me live that fantasy.

We're bigger than we ever dreamed, we're bigger than we ever thought,

and I'm in love with being queen.

    When we were girls together, everything we wanted to hold on to when we parted. The uws movie theater was full of seniors, and I seemed to be the closest to this story in the audience. I really miss home, because I can't go back to a place that feels more and more like home. I have imagined myself growing up countless times, but when I grow up, is it really more cute? I miss the ignorant and reckless self in the past.

    On the way to New York, Alice in Brooklyn traveled five thousand miles in the wind and waves, and Christina in Miss Bird walked for a whole year. The distance exists to leave.

Lady Bird quotes

  • Christine 'Lady Bird' McPherson: Just because something looks ugly doesn't mean that it's morally wrong.

    Casey Kelly: You think dead children aren't morally wrong?

    Christine 'Lady Bird' McPherson: No. I'm just saying that, if you took up close pictures of my vagina while I was on my period, it would be disturbing but it doesn't make it wrong.

    Casey Kelly: Excuse me?

    Christine 'Lady Bird' McPherson: Listen, if your mother had had the abortion, we wouldn't have to sit through this stupid assembly!

  • Christine 'Lady Bird' McPherson: I was on top! Who the fuck is on top their first time!
