The lyrics are "with ribbons in knots" for the studio version and she adds 'my' live and makes it "with my ribbons in knots".

The lyrics goes "so i do what you want with ribbons in knots", her hands are tied up (she gestures live) and she does whatever this guy wants.

OMG. The way I thought she was saying, “Blue ribbon on ice.” This makes way more sense!!

i don’t always trust Lana’s official lyrics like I do think she intentionally mispronounces words on purpose .. like in cola when she sung Harvey’s in the sky but all official lyrics leave out the name like we got ears babe

Blessed is this union

Crying tears of gold

Like Adam and Eve 

 

Still wish those were the lyrics tbh

Wait I'm shocked she's not. I always heard " blue ribbon on ice" and just assumed she was referencing "Paps Blue Ribbon" was some brand of liquor RIP

This thread is blowing my mind knowing I’ve been singing lyrics wrong for YEARS

[Surf Noir 188,277]

"He's got the fire and he walks [...]"??? in Sad Girl

With it? With fame? Who knows

 

I've always thought it was He walks with fame and then He deals with fate  I thought it was cool so I never questioned it until I saw the lyrics here 

 

Edit: the "with ribbons in knot" one blew my mind

I think honeymouns or syth on insta did like a super filtered edit and I think (I'm like only 65% sure pls) that it was "walks with it"..

• 'Lust For Life'

-There's no need for us to:

• come away

• complain

• come and lay

 

-Too much fun tonight:

• And A lust for life

• And OUR lust for life

 

 

 

I always heard "there's no way for us to come back" and "and our lust for life"

...The way she sings “and you lean on your sycamore tree” at the end of Cherry Blossom Always thought it was:

”I push you high, Angelina on your sycamore tree” LOL

STOP I CANT TAKE THIS ANYMORE 

 

MY LIFE IS A LIE

 

I HATE IT HERE 

[Surf Noir 188,277]

she's saying angelina, there's no need to panic! 

[honeybadger 40,620]

i want it to be "and you lean ahhh on your sycamore tree"... from "ahhh" into "aahn"/on

 

i swear i hear the "d" sound from "and", even in the other takes, which wouldn't be there in "angelina"... but the "ang" could also sound like "and" 

that being said i hear angelina so clearly... but who is she 

[strange weather 1,950]

This thread is kinda blowing my mind. I hate her for not giving us official lyrics! "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" -- but this thread proves we're all misunderstanding her lol

 

I can't believe no one has mentioned Florida Kilos yet:

____ in my mouth & gold hoops ???? Sun in my mouth?

White lines, pretty daddy,  _____ ??? go ski it? Gold skin?

You snort it like a champ, like the _____ ??? Winter we're not in? Winner, winner...?

lana is so articulate compared to other artists I listen too (COUGH Courtney) that I've only noticed on some tracks mostly UV
