Favourite Lana Lyrics

[elllipsis 1,441]

Well, I find it weird that freaking Gods and Monsters wasn't mentioned in every comment yet.... (seriously wtf, or am I delusional and I only imagined that 95% of the fanbase is in love with those lyrics)

 

I love the song, but the lyrics are so clichéd that I cringe a little just thinking about them tbh.

WTF I thought they were original and unique

with the life imitates art line and all of that

They're disgusting, I'm delicious

They disgust me, I'm delicious

Let's discuss this, I'm delicious

 

Fffffffff~

Does anyone else find that often Lana's not so good or more boring songs have the best lyrics? I think it's because it's difficult to multitask on making a good tune etc as well as making it good lyrically. For instant, everyone knows Pawn Shop Blues is a lyrical masterpiece but it's also my least favourite on the album.

Plus, Sirens is her worse album (you can't deny it, I love it but that's literally a fact) however, for me, it's her best album lyrically and if the poetry was lame, I wouldn't love it the way I do.

 

i love sirens and pawn shop blues

Songs as a whole:

1. Carmen
2. Off to the Races
3. Disco
4. Elvis
5. Children of the Bad Revolution 

Single lines:

1. I know a way to make gold, by making our souls to escape reality.
2. There's no remedy for memory, your face is like a melody, it won't leave my head. Your soul is haunting me and telling me that everything is fine.
3. Mon Amour, sweet child of mine, you're divine. Didn't anyone ever tell you it's okay to shine?
4. Buy my purple wig, for my mermaid video. Walk back to where I live in my motel on Neptune Avenue.
5. Overdose and dying, on our drugs, and our love, and our dreams, and our rage.

Not really my top 5, too hard to narrow it down to that...but just some I really love.

A-FOOKING-MEN

[Trinity 1,224]

"I'm diggable, predicatable

No, everyone knows all my people
I’ll give you a fistful
You know you’ll be in a fight
Unmissable, invincible
Behavior is despicable
If you’re lookin’ for fun you can come out with me tonight"

MAY ALL THE STARS IN THE SKY BOW DOWN TO YOU  *************obviously************** i still praise her for that line i mean like ugh

[Myriam 559]

You know sometimes I think God's
Playing a little game with me
Looking down from heaven, laughing
Trying to see how much I can take
Because the way things go, it's like a joke
Nobody's had more shots at the moon and missed than me

[Pin Up Paradise 463]

none

[Lad 8,801]

"My pussy taste like Pepsi Cola"

"Elvis is the best hell yes"

"Hell yeah that guy can sing"

"You don't get it, you just don't get it"

"Uh Uh Uh Uh Uh, like an american"

"You also take pictures and you gave me one

Of a nun who was playing the drums

She was crazy, her name was Katie"

"In the land of gods and monsters I was an angel looking to fucked hard".

"Spins me round like a record, baby"

 

[kingadam 760]

Im lying in the ocean singing your song !!

 

I LOVE it!

[larisalars 37]

Call me poison ivy 'cause I'm far from good
But pretty from afar, like a dark star

 

Everything is fine, but I wish I was dead :crying5:

 

Baby, you'll never grow old in my eyes
With your golden grill, true love never dies

 

I like your ultraviolet swing, I like it when you treat me mean.

Chateau Marmont memories fading,hope is very far

 

L is for the love you that gave and took away
O is for the only one I wanted to stay
V is for my valiant, valiant baby
E is X that we took with champagne

 

 

Let's celebrate our twisted fate, we're the broken ones

 

You're gonna love me... I'm gonna make you :crying5:

 

Your soul is haunting me and telling me that everything is fine, but I wish I was dead" :crying5:

Unmissable, invincible 
Behavior is despicable
If you’re lookin’ for fun you can come out with me tonight

 

It's nice to love and be loved but its better to know what God knows [ ]

 

Overdose and dying, on our drugs, and our love, and our dreams, and our rage

 

I'm in love with a dying man :crying5: .

 

Palm trees in black and white, last thing I saw before I died

 

It's the voodoo Mississippi south, 69 million stars. Birds are flying out of my mouth, spirits creeping in my yard. Hold my head, it's tilting back

 

You don't know what you've done to me, you're heavier than heavenly :crying5:

 

Are you gonna be my lover? Are we gonna be true love suicide? It's either live or die boy

[Trash Magic 28,368]

Is it actually possible for you to make a single post on this forum without using the term "bandwagoner"? 

[Trash Magic 28,368]

Baby, i've become someone. Not of this world 

Any time I think I have a good idea, that I should do the opposite of whatever it is I feel.

And that's because I have a bad mind and I have gold in my veins

 

You say that you don't want to be hypnotised, but baby I, I don't wanna hypnotise you   

 

Easy Rider 

I'm in love with a dying man           

[TrailerParkDarling 5,691]

There's something I have never told you, I'm not really from this world

Life is beautiful but you don't have a clue/  Their magnificence it don't make sense to you

It's the voodoo Mississippi south, 69 million stars. Birds are flying out of my mouth, spirits creeping in my yard. Hold my head, it's tilting back..

Elvis, where are you when I need you most? White gold-sequined jump suit ghost. Pick me up, and make a toast, champagne in the air..

Man makes plans and God laughs, Why do I even bother to ask?

You have to take me right now, from this dark trailer park life now

Living without you is like TV in black and white, you turned me on and brought color into my life...

You're gonna love me... I'm gonna make you

Nothing more gorgeous than a 100$ bill

I like your ultraviolet swing, I like it when you treat me mean, you turn my mood from black to blue/ Scary, my God, you're divine, Gimme them dope &diamonds

You should never come between a woman and a dream and a man who never knew his place

You don't know what you've done to me, you're heavier than heavenly

Let's celebrate our twisted fate, we're the broken ones

You're God's favorite child, boy believe it

Television Heaven (tha whole song)

Walking through the city streets, is it by mistake or design?

Life is a velvet crowbar..

 

I don't think lyrics have to be really complicated or profound to be considered "good" .. I mean that varies from person to person anyway and I think when they are combined with Lana's voice+ how she emotes them + production, etc. it just works

Yes! I think even just phrases, like a few words strung together can be better and more effective than whole lines of songs.

 

for example "Easy rider" in AFFA resonates with me, there's so many more like "heavy metal lions", "prostitute stare", "Velvet crowbar" too.

Even something so simple as "I do what I like... I just don't care" in Disco. The way she says it. Such a poet 

[lauradelxx 1,082]

"Salvatore you can best be my baby boo'

" If you want to get high with me, hun in the back doing crack drinking p p pepsi'

" Don't fuck with me"

" I'm fucked"

" Fuck yeah give it to me"

" I know you like little girls"

 

Lyrical genius.

 

 

 

 

(Lol I'll actually give the lyrics I love late I'm on mobile so it's hard to write)
