“Royals” by Lorde LYRICS
I've never seen a diamond in the flesh
I cut my teeth on wedding rings in the moviesAnd I'm not proud of my addressIn a torn up town, no postcode envy
But every song's likeGold teeth, Grey Goose, trippin' in the bathroomBloodstains, ball gowns, trashin' the hotel roomWe don't careWe're driving Cadillacs in our dreamsBut everybody's likeCristal, Maybach, diamonds on your timepieceJet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leashWe don't careWe aren't caught up in your love affair
And we'll never be royals (royals)It don't run in our bloodThat kind of luxe just ain't for usWe crave a different kind of buzzLet me be your ruler (ruler)You can call me queen beeAnd baby, I'll rule (I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule)Let me live that fantasy
My friends and I, we've cracked the codeWe count our dollars on the train to the partyAnd everyone who knows us knowsThat we're fine with this, we didn't come from money
But every song's likeGold teeth, Grey Goose, trippin' in the bathroomBloodstains, ball gowns, trashin' the hotel roomWe don't careWe're driving Cadillacs in our dreamsBut everybody's likeCristal, Maybach, diamonds on your timepieceJet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leashWe don't careWe aren't caught up in your love affair
And we'll never be royals (royals)It don't run in our bloodThat kind of luxe just ain't for usWe crave a different kind of buzzLet me be your ruler (ruler)You can call me queen beeAnd baby, I'll rule (I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule)Let me live that fantasy
OhOh (oh, oh)We're bigger than we ever dreamedAnd I'm in love with being queenOhOh (oh, oh)Life is great without a careWe aren't caught up in your love affair
And we'll never be royals (royals)It don't run in our bloodThat kind of luxe just ain't for usWe crave a different kind of buzzLet me be your ruler (ruler)You can call me queen beeAnd baby, I'll rule (I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule)Let me live that fantasy
