GODS & MONSTERS
By
Lana Del Rey
***************
In the land of Gods and Monsters
I was an angel
Living in the garden of evil
Screwed up, scared, doing anything that I needed
Shining like a fiery beacon
You got that medicine that I need
Fame, liquor, love, give it to my slowly
Put your hands on my waist do it softly
Me and God, we don’t get along, so now I sing
No one’s gonna take my soul away
Living like Jim Morrison
Heading towards a fucked up holiday
Monitor, squeeze, squeeze, and I’m singing
Fuck yeah, give it to me
This is heaven
What I truly want
Is innocence lost?
Innocence lost?
In the land of Gods and Monsters
I was an angel
Looking to get fucked hard
Like a groupie incognito
Posing as a real singer
Life imitates art
You got that medicine that I need
Dope, shoot it up, straight to the heart please
I don’t really wanna know what’s good for me
God’s dead, I said ‘Baby that’s alright with me’
No one’s gonna take my soul away
Living like Jim Morrison
Heading towards a fucked up holiday
Monitor, squeeze, squeeze, and I’m singing
Fuck yeah, give it to me
This is heaven
What I truly want
Is innocence lost?
Innocence lost?
…
Fuck now I sing
No one’s gonna take my soul away
Living like Jim Morrison
Heading towards a fucked up holiday
Monitor, squeeze, squeeze, and I’m singing
Fuck yeah, give it to me
This is heaven
What I truly want
Is innocence lost?
Innocence lost?
SUMMER BUMMER (FEAT. PLAYBOI CARTI & A$AP ROCKY)
***************
[Lana Del Rey:]
It’s never too late
To be who you wanna be
To say what you wanna say
It’s never too late
To leave if you wanna leave
Or to stay if you wanna stay
But, baby
I got a feeling in my bones
Can’t get you out of my veins
You can’t escape my affection
Wrap you up in my daisy chains
Hip-hop in the summer
Don’t be a bummer, babe
Be my undercover lover, babe
High tops in the summer
Don’t be a bummer, babe
Be my undercover lover, babe, mmm
[A$AP Rocky:]
Uh, her sophistication makes you wanna quit the bitch you datin’
Let’s skip the games, let’s quit the playin’
Boo, let’s get acquainted
Notifications sync in place even when we’re on vacation
I knew she’d notice like I missed the payment, dang it
But bang it like my fingers
She pray to God I made it
But bankin’ like my Franklins
My neighbors stopped the hatin’
What?
Huh?
Slide inside it
Diddy Boppin’
Milly Rockin’
She just might become my lover for real
I might fuck with her all summer for real
They better not holla if I cuff her for real
Niggas better run for cover for real
Goin’ bell how I feel, close the deal, pop a seal
Take the whip, two pills on the lips on the real
Truthfully between you and me I’m usually single
When it’s hot outside this, I ride through any hood with the top out
Hop out
[Lana Del Rey:]
Hip-hop in the summer
Don’t be a bummer, babe
Be my undercover lover, babe
High tops in the summer
Don’t be a bummer, babe
Be my undercover lover, babe, mmm
White lights and black beaches
Miles in between us
Is this love or lust or some game on repeat?
It’s like making me crazy
Tell me, “have patience”
Baby, I need this
White lines and black beaches
White lights and black beaches
And blood red sangrias
We traveled for weeks
Just to escape your demons
But you’ve got your reasons
In making me crazy
But you’ve got your reasons
White lights and black beaches
Like doves in the summer
Don’t be a bummer, babe
Don’t be a bummer
Don’t be a bummer
Hip-hop in the summer
Don’t be a bummer, babe
Be my undercover lover, babe
High tops in the summer
Don’t be a bummer, babe
Be my undercover lover, babe
Don’t be a bummer, babe
OFF TO THE RACES
***************
My old man is a bad man but
I can’t deny the way he holds my hand
And he grabs me, he has me by my heart
He doesn’t mind I have a Las Vegas past
He doesn’t mind I have LA crass way about me
He loves me with every beat of his cocaine heart
Swimming pool glimmering darling
White bikini off with my red nail polish
Watch me in the swimming pool bright blue ripples you
Sitting sipping on your black crystal
Oh yeah
Light of my life, fire of my loins
Be a good baby, do what I want
Light of my life, fire of my loins
Give me them gold coins, gimme them coins
And I’m off the races, paces
Up Bacardi chasers
Chasing me all over town
Cause he knows I’m wasted, facing
Time again at Reiker’s Island and I won’t get out
Because I’m crazy, baby I need you to come here and save me
I’m your little scarlet, starlet singing in the garden
Kiss me on my open mouth
Ready for you
My old man is a tough man but
He got a soul as sweet as blood red jam
And he shows me, he knows me
Every inch of my tar black soul
He doesn’t mind I have a flat broke down life
In fact he says he thinks it’s why he might like about me
Admires me, the way I roll like a Rolling Stone
Likes to watch me in the glass room bathroom, Chateau Marmont
Slippin’ on my red dress, puttin’ on my makeup
Glass film, perfume, cognac, lilac
Fumes, says it feels like heaven to him
Light of his life, fire of his loins
Keep me forever, tell me you want me
Light of your life, fire of your loins
Tell me want me, gimme them coins
And I’m off the races, paces
Up Bacardi chasers
Chasing me all over town
Cause he knows I’m wasted, facing
Time again at Reiker’s Island and I won’t get out
Because I’m crazy, baby I need you to come here and save me
I’m your little scarlet, starlet singing in the garden
Kiss me on my open mouth
Now I’m off to the races, laces
Leather on my waist is tight and I am fallin’ down
I can see your face is shameless, Chipriani’s basement
Love you but I’m going down
God I’m so crazy, baby, I’m sorry that I’m misbehaving
I’m your little harlot, starlet, Queen of Coney Island
Raising hell all over town
Sorry ’bout it
My old man is a thief and I’m gonna stay and pray with him ’til the end
But I trust in the decision of the Lord to watch over us
Take him when he may, if he may
I’m not afraid to say that I’d die without him
Who else is gonna put up with me this way?
I need you, I breathe you, I never leave you
They would rue the day I was alone without you
You’re lying with your gold chain on, cigar hanging from your lips
I said “Hon’ you never looked so beautiful as you do now, my man.”
And we’re off to the races, places
Ready, set the gate is down and now we’re goin’ in
To Las Vegas pay us, Casino Oasis, honey it is time to spin
Boy you’re so crazy, baby, I love you forever not maybe
You are my one true love, you are my one true love
You are my one true love
NATIONAL ANTHEM
***************
Money is the anthem
Of success
So before we go out
What’s your address?
I’m your National Anthem
God, you’re so handsome
Take me to the Hamptons
Bugatti Veyron
He loves to romance them
Reckless abandon
Holdin’ me for ransom
Upper echelon
He says to “be cool” but
I don’t know how yet
Wind in my hair
Hand on the back of my neck
I said, “Can we party later on?”
He said, “Yes, yes”
Tell me I’m your National Anthem
Ooh, yeah, baby, bow down
Making me so wow, wow
Tell me I’m your National Anthem
Sugar, sugar, how now
Take your body down town
Red, white, blue’s in the skies
Summer’s in the air and
Baby, heaven’s in your eyes
I’m your National Anthem
Money is the reason
We exist
Everybody knows it, it’s a fact
Kiss, kiss
I sing the National Anthem
While I’m standing over your body
Hold you like a python
And you can’t keep your hands off me
Or your pants on
See what you’ve done to me
Give me Chevron
He said to “be cool” but
I’m already coolest
I said to, “Get real,”
“Don’t you know who you’re dealing with?
Um, do you think you’ll buy me lots of diamonds?”
Tell me I’m your National Anthem
Ooh, yeah, baby, bow down
Making me so wow, wow
Tell me I’m your National Anthem
Sugar, sugar, how now
Take your body down town
Red, white, blue’s in the skies
Summer’s in the air and
Baby, heaven’s in your eyes
I’m your National Anthem
It’s a love story for the new age
For the six page
Want a quick sick rampage?
Wining and dining
Drinking and driving
Excessive buying
Overdosin’, dyin’
On our drugs and our love
And our dreams and our rage
Blurring the lines between real and the fake
Dark and lonely
I need somebody to hold me
We will do very well
I can tell, I can tell
Keep my safe in his bell tower, hotel
Money is the anthem of success
So put on mascara, and your party dress
I’m your National Anthem
Boy, put your hands up
Give me a standing ovation
Boy, you have landed
Babe, in the land of
Sweetness and Danger
Queen of Saigon
Tell me I’m your National Anthem
Ooh, yeah, baby, bow down
Making me so wow, wow
Tell me I’m your National Anthem
Sugar, sugar, how now
Take your body down town
Red, white, blue’s in the skies
Summer’s in the air and
Baby, heaven’s in your eyes
I’m your National Anthem
Money is the anthem
God, you’re so handsome
Money is the anthem
Of success
Money is the anthem
God, you’re so handsome
Money is the anthem
Of success
Money is the anthem
God, you’re so handsome
Money is the anthem
Of success
Money is the anthem
God, you’re so handsome
Money is the anthem
Of success
WHITE MUSTANG
***************
Packing all my things for the summer
Lying on my bed it’s a bummer
Cause I didn’t call when I got your number
But I liked you a lot
Slippin’ on my dress in soft filters
Everybody said you’re a killer, but I
Couldn’t stop the way I was feeling that day
Your record dropped
The day I saw your white Mustang
Your white Mustang
The day I saw your white Mustang
Your white Mustang
Caught up in my dreams and forgetting
I’ve been acting like Armageddon ’cause you
Held me in your arms just a little too tight
That’s what I thought
Summer’s meant for loving and leaving
I was such a fool for believing that you
Could change all the ways you’ve been living
But you just couldn’t stop
The day I saw your white Mustang
Your white Mustang
The day I saw your white Mustang
Your white Mustang
You’re revving and revving and revving it up
And the sound, it was frightening
And you were getting a part of that
You gonna hit me like a lightning
White Mustang
Your white Mustang
The day I saw your white Mustang
Said you’re a wild Mustang
You gonna hit me like a lightning
You gonna hit me like a lightning
JUMP
***************
Palm trees in black and white
Last thing I saw before I died
Palm trees in black and white
Was the last thing I saw before I died
Right line, right man
Right mixture of cocaine an heroin
Do you wanna jump, jump, jump?
Do you wanna jump, jump, jump?
Do you wanna jump, jump, jump?
Do you, do you wanna?
Heaven in
Cadillac convertible with him
Hot shot at two A.M.
You got that grin of a very hollow man
Do you wanna jump, jump, jump?
Do you wanna jump, jump, jump?
Do you wanna jump, jump, jump?
Do you, do you wanna?
Palm trees in black and white
You hot junkie on your window smiling wide
Palm trees in black and white
Lean forward and you close your eyes
Last fight, fuck them
Last words before you went and left again
Do you wanna jump, jump, jump?
Do you wanna jump, jump, jump?
Do you wanna jump, jump, jump?
Do you, do you, do you wanna?
Just do what you love, just do what you can
Just do what you love, just do what you can
Just do what you love, do it better than
Just do what you love, do it better than
Do you wanna?
Do you wanna?
Jump
