GRAMMA
By
Lana Del Rey

***************

Gramma said she’ll leave the lights on for me
Gramma said the flags are waving for me
Gramma said that somewhere out there there’s a good man, waiting for me

A.M.E.R.I.C.A.
All I want to do is play
See the city every day
Pretty party nation

Tell me that you think I’m good
Happy that I make you glad
‘Cause I don’t want to think I’m bad, Gramma
I don’t want to think I’m bad

Gramma said she’ll leave the lights on for me
Gramma said the flags are waving for me
Gramma said that somewhere out there there’s a good man, waiting for me
Gramma said she’ll leave the lights on for me
Don’t you know, you don’t need a thing?
Gramma said that somewhere out there there’s a good man, waiting for me

T.R.O.U.B.L.E.
Trouble’s what feels good to me
Crazy as since I was three
Now I’m out to get you

But I’d have bet that lately, Ma
And I’m in love with everyone
And I don’t want to think I’m wrong
Just for feeling pretty

Gramma said she’ll leave the lights on for me
Gramma said the flags are waving for me
Gramma said that somewhere out there there’s a good man, waiting for me
Gramma said she’ll leave the lights on for me
Gramma said the flags are waving for me
Gramma said that somewhere out there there’s a good man, waiting for me

I want to be the whole world’s girl, gramma
I want to be the whole world’s girl
I want to be the whole world’s girl, gramma
Tell me do you think that’s wrong?

Don’t cry, honey, crazy girl
Don’t you know you are the world?
Every time you feel unsure
Try to remember what you are

Gramma said she’ll leave the lights on for me
Gramma said the flags are waving for me
Gramma said that somewhere out there there’s a good man, waiting for me
Gramma said she’ll leave the lights on for me
Honey, don’t you know you have everything?
Gramma said that somewhere out there there’s a good man, waiting for me

Gramma said she’ll leave the lights on for me
Gramma said the flags are waving for me
Gramma said that somewhere out there there’s a good man, waiting for me

COLA (PUSSY)

***************

My pussy tastes like Pepsi cola,
My eyes are wide like cherry pies.
I gots a taste for men who’re older,
It’s always been so it’s no surprise.

Harvey’s in the sky with diamonds and he’s making me crazy (I come alive at night)
All he wants to do it party with his pretty baby.

Come on baby, let’s ride
We can escape the great sunshine.
I know your wife and she wouldn’t mind
We made it out to the other side
Come on, come on
Come on, come on, baby.

I fall asleep on an American flag
I wear my diamonds on skid row
I pledge allegiance to my dad
For teaching me everything he knows

Harvey’s in the sky with diamonds and he’s making me crazy (I come alive at night)
All he wants to do it party with his pretty baby

Come on baby, let’s ride
We can escape the great sunshine.
I know your wife and she wouldn’t mind
We made it out to the other side
Come on, come on
Come on, come on, baby

BRITE LITES

***************

I look for you in magazines
I look for you in magazines
I look for you in magazines
I’m taking off my wedding ring

I gave you everything
I gave you everything

Give me the bright lights
Give me the bright lights
Give me the bright lights

Give me the bright lights
Give me the bright lights
Give me the bright lights

I’m going back to Arbor Dean
I’m going back to Arbor Dean
I’m going back to Arbor Dean
Where when I was a beauty queen

It wasn’t anything
It wasn’t anything

Give me the bright lights
Give me the bright lights
Give me the bright lights

Give me the bright lights
Give me the bright lights
Give me the bright lights

I’m waving on the silver screen
I’m waving on the silver screen
I’m waving on the trampoline
I’m waving on the silver screen

The film is fading, look at me
The film is fading, look at me
The film is fading, look at me
The film is fading, look at me, look at me

Give me the bright lights
Give me the bright lights
Give me the bright lights

Give me the bright lights
Give me the bright lights
Give me the bright lights

Give me the bright lights
Give me the bright lights
Give me the bright lights

Give me the bright lights
Give me the bright lights

RIDE

***************

I’ve been out on that open road
You can be my full time, daddy
White and gold
Singing blues has been getting old
You can be my full time, baby
Hot or cold

Don’t break me down
I’ve been travelin’ too long
I’ve been trying too hard
With one pretty song

I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast
I am alone in the night
Been tryin’ hard not to get into trouble, but I
I’ve got a war in my mind
So, I just ride
Just ride, I just ride, I just ride

Dying young and I’m playing hard
That’s the way my father made his life an art
Drink all day and we talk ’til dark
That’s the way the road dogs do it, ride ’til dark.

Don’t leave me now
Don’t say good bye
Don’t turn around
Leave me high and dry

I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast
I am alone in the night
Been tryin’ hard not to get into trouble, but I
I’ve got a war in my mind
I just ride
Just ride, I just ride, I just ride

I’m tired of feeling like I’m fucking crazy
I’m tired of driving ’till I see stars in my eyes
I look up to hear myself saying,
Baby, too much I strive, I just ride

I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast
I am alone in the night
Been tryin’ hard not to get into trouble, but I
I’ve got a war in my mind
I just ride
Just ride, I just ride, I just ride

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

BLUE JEANS

***************

Blue jeans, white shirt
Walked into the room you know you made my eyes burn
It was like, James Dean, for sure
You’re so fresh to death & sick as ca-cancer
You were sorta punk rock, I grew up on hip hop
But you fit me better than my favourite sweater, and I know
That love is mean, and love hurts
But I still remember that day we met in december, oh baby!

I will love you ’til the end of time
I would wait a million years
Promise you’ll remember that you’re mine
Baby can you see through the tears
Love you more
Than those bitches before
Say you’ll remember, oh baby, say you’ll remember
I will love you ’til the end of time

Big dreams, gangster
Said you had to leave to start your life over
I was like, “No please, stay here,
We don’t need no money we can make it all work,”
But he headed out on sunday, said he’d come home monday
I stayed up waiting, anticipating, and pacing but he was
Chasing paper
“Caught up in the game” that was the last I heard

I will love you ’til the end of time
I would wait a million years
Promise you’ll remember that you’re mine
Baby can you see through the tears
Love you more
Than those bitches before
Say you’ll remember, oh baby, say you’ll remember
I will love you ’til the end of time

He went out every night
And baby that’s alright
I told you that no matter what you did I’d be by your side
Cause I’m a ride or die
Whether you fail or fly
Well shit at least you tried.
But when you walked out that door, a piece of me died
I told you I wanted more-but that not what I had in mind
I just want it like before
We were dancing all night
Then they took you away-stole you out of my life
You just need to remember….

I will love you ’til the end of time
I would wait a million years
Promise you’ll remember that you’re mine
Baby can you see through the tears
Love you more
Than those bitches before
Say you’ll remember, oh baby, say you’ll remember
I will love you ’til the end of time
