Your Girl Lana

This Is What Makes Us Girls

Recommended Posts

Remember how we used to party up all night
Sneaking out and looking for a taste of real life
Drinking in the small town firelight
(Pabst Blue Ribbon on ice)

Sweet sixteen and we had arrived
Walking down the streets as they whistle, "Hi, hi!"
Stealing police cars with the senior guys
Teachers said we'd never make it out alive

There she was my new best friend
High heels in her hands, swaying in the wind
While she starts to cry, mascara running down her little Bambi eyes:
"Lana, how I hate those guys."

This is what makes us girls
We all look for heaven and we put love first
Something that we'd die for, it's our curse
(Don't cry about it, don't cry about it)
This is what makes us girls
We don't stick together 'cause we put love first
Don't cry about him, don't cry about him
It's all gonna happen

And that's where the beginning of the end begun
Everybody knew that we had too much fun
We were skippin' school and drinkin' on the job
With the boss

Sweet sixteen and we had arrived
Baby's table dancing at the local dive
Cheerin our names in the pink spotlight
Drinking cherry Schnapps in the velvet night

Yo, we used to go break in
To the hotel, glimmering we’d swim
Running from the cops in our black bikini tops
Screaming, "Get us while we're hot!
Get us while we're hot!"
(Come on take a shot)

This is what makes us girls
We all look for heaven and we put love first
Something that we'd die for, it's our curse
(Don't cry about it, don't cry about it)
This is what makes us girls
We don't stick together 'cause we put love first
Don't cry about him, don't cry about him
It's all gonna happen

The prettiest in-crowd that you had ever seen
Ribbons in our hair and our eyes gleamed mean
A freshman generation of degenerate beauty queens
And you know something?
They were the only friends I ever had
We got into trouble and when stuff got bad
I got sent away, I was waving on the train platform
Crying 'cause I know I'm never coming back

This is what makes us girls
We all look for heaven and we put love first
Something that we'd die for, it's our curse
(Don't cry about it, don't cry about it)
This is what makes us girls
We don't stick together 'cause we put love first
Don't cry about him, don't cry about him
It's all gonna happen

Okay so the lyric booklet was written when this version was going to make the album because it has all the alternate lyrics and it says "To all the little queens", which sort of makes sense, but that fucking lyric booklet has some major mistakes. For example, "Stealing police guys with the senior guys", which doesn't even make any sense.

 

But I hear a hard sound and it just kinda sounds like "darling". Keep in mind "to all the", though, I guess.

Yeah i was actually so confused cause i was like, "well why would the senior guys be stealing police guys?...gays."  No really, but i was sure i was hearing "stealing police cars." But then i was like, "as if they would put the wrong lyrics down."

Oh well, looks like they did.

I AM NOT INEPT. I KNOW THESE ARE CRYING EMOTES. THEY DO NOT CONVEY MY FEELINGS SOMETIMES. LIKE, REAL FUCKING CRYING. NOT FANGIRLING OR HEART ATTACKS OR WIPING TEARS. 

 

THIS IS THE CLOSEST ONE THAT FITS BUT IT STILL DOESN'T.  :crying2:

 

We used to have a good one on ldr.fm.
