  4. Yeah, it's the pre-chorus. That is definitely from one of her other songs. I guess it's the "hello hello" from without you like another member noted

  12. This song describes a fateful encounter, it is a biographical piece about Lana's teenage days. She sets the tone of the song, it's sundown, tomorrow is coming, and she is walking home from somewhere, most likely school, hence the "another day" repetition, suggesting that most of her days are the same old same old. Lana loves to watch nature, the sunset. She sits down at a bench in a public setting, and dreams of having company, a mature older figure she can share the moment with. She asks "would you like a little company" as an invitation, but in reality it is her who would like a little company, she wants someone to be there with her. She wants to reach out. Once again, Lana has went through her daily routine. She is sitting somewhere outside looking at nature. Now someone actually comes by, and she feels encouraged to invite the man to sit next to her, wishing for company. The guy is vary of accepting her invitation, worrying that it might lead to some things that should not happen. And so, he declines her and walks away. Another day, Lana is at her usual place again, doing what she always does. And dreaming. She fantasizes about the man she saw earlier, the one that caught her eye. She wishes she could make him be there with her. Next to me, next to me....overall, this song expresses a deep longing for companionship, she is obviously alone and lonely, she really wants to connect with a person on her level. And this song is a memory to all that.

    Ghetto Baby

    You got a face like the Madonna, crying tears of gold This line expresses Lana's view of her man: she sees him as someone out of the ordinary, feeling adoration for him that can only be likened to the level of devotion people feel in religious praise. Basically, the guy is really special and above other humans, the crying tears of gold part refers to how even his problems are above what ordinary people have to deal with. P-pumping gas at the Texaco, road to road You're on the run, whoa baby Yeah, you're on the run, whoa baby Here Lana paints the picture of her bad-boy lover, a common part of her aesthetic, her lover is bad but she loves him anyway. I'm not a trick boy, I'm a trick for you You give me butterflies, heart skipping one, two Lana stands by her man, she is his girl by his side, he doesn't judge him for his behavior and even agrees to help him with his ploys because it makes her feel alive. This is a common theme in Lana's songs that she mentioned in interviews, how she looks for someone who makes her feel "electric", like her heart is in a rush. She loves the excitement of walking the wrong path, "taking a walk on the wild side" for him, and because of him, if you will. I know you're sick boy, I wanna get the flu She knows her boyfriend is bad, and she wants to be with him anyway. She stays with him even in his troubles. I'm running temperatures thinking of your love, boo She is running temperatures even while thinking of his love. This line expresses that the guy has a strong hold on her, Lana is obsessed. Even just fantasizing about the things they do brings intense pleasure. Brooklyn, move my soul like this Kissing my stilettos, move your mouth up to my lips As we all know, Lana is the Brooklyn Baby, this is the setting where part of their story takes place. (the area was a more run-down part of NY back in the day so it's a good place for someone with criminal activity) Move My Soul, it just refers to the effect the Ghetto Baby has on Lana: he is bad and it thrills her, makes her feel alive. He kisses her stilettos, meaning he is giving and sensual, Lana enjoys the physical side of their love. The rest of the chorus, the part of the song she repeats throguh the song, is sexual invitation. Lana WANTS the guy, and she does not make it a secret. Come on over, ghetto baby (He said, "Show me what you got, girl") Come on over, ghetto baby ("Drop it like it's hot, girl") Lana is willing and ready, and the show me what you got girl is a line that is very likely, her guy actually said to her. In a "come over here and show me what you got" kind of way. The drop their troubles and focus on each other, they have sex. I know your lips say that you wanna But your heart says no But boy your hips say that you're gonna When you hold me hold me, you're so fun B-baby, you are too much fun, b-baby This section of the song details their relationship a bit further: the guy is aware that he is bad for her, but Lana is irresistible. He wants to say no and run away but he simply can't, and Lana loves this. She really enjoys his company. My local rockstar, the Willie B. crew I feeling you boy, you're liking me too I'm clockin' chicks left and right just to get to you You're out there on the grind Now come home to your queen, boo Lana's Ghetto Baby is popular with girls, and he hangs around near the Williamsburg Bridge. It's also probably where they met. Willy B is a slang term for the Williamsburg Bridge. The Williamsburg Bridge is a suspension bridge in New York City across the East River connecting the Lower East Side of Manhattan with the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn.When they met Lana felt an instant attraction and in the end he succesfully caught the guy's attention. Now, even when he is out and he does bad things, Lana has faith in him, that he returns to her. Brooklyn, move my soul like this Kissing my stilettos, move your mouth up to my lips Come on over, ghetto baby (He said, "Show me what you got, girl") Come on over, ghetto baby ("Drop it like it's hot, girl") The chorus is repeated twice. Now the setting is laid down, the characters are placed within their context. The emphasis of the song is on the strong physical attraction they feel towards each other and that is what is emphasized here. The Ghetto Baby is a bad boy, exciting, rebels against the rules. This turns Lana on, makes her feel like life is full of possibilities. She is eager to experience more and more of this. We're a match made in Heaven If they're gonna talk, let 'em If they don't think we're good together Baby, just forget 'em Lana strongly believes that she and this guy are the real deal, a soul connection. She doesn't care what anyone has to say about it, she knows it to be true in her heart and that is what matters. When he's bad, he's bad But when he's good no one's better 'Cause we're match made in heaven And this kind of love's forever These lines emphasize that even though others may talk, they don't know - they don't understand what Lana and this guy have, that their love was decided even before they were born, they are soul mates. It's an emphasis of what a great match they are in Lana's eyes, how much she believes in the relationship. Brooklyn, move my soul like this Kissing my stilettos, move your mouth up to my lips Come on over, ghetto baby (He said, "Show me what you got, girl") Come on over, ghetto baby ("Drop it like it's hot, girl") For the finale we return to the catchy chorus, expressing the main theme of the song again. Overall, Ghetto Baby seems like a superficial song full of Lana cliches but when you look below the surface it's actually very well-thought out with clever lyrics. For those interested, here is a picture of the Williamsburg Bridge Lana references in the song
  14. It's one of my favorite Lana songs too. It's so touching. And the MV is one of her best
  15. It's very unique This kind of energy is hidden deep within her and only rarely comes out
