Catch and Release

Recommended Posts

I AM A SHARK

 

So I heard you wanna go to Rio, baby,
Yes, I've seen page six lately, ah,
I told you both them broads was crazy.
Hackin' in your phone and shit.
 
Diamonds and pearls, your little girl,
Cheap and the best, sparklin' like a,
Hollywood movie, ah.
 
If you got the cash, lock it down tight,
I got the looks, you got my heart right,
And you love me, 'cause I'm just like neon,
Lighting up your night.
 
Give it to me, give it to me, everything,
You know how I like my world on a string.
I didn't want nothing from you,
Just to be like you, my king.
 
I thought that you wanted a real girl, baby.
You lured me in with all your gold,
Catch and release and you're so cold,
Are you crazy?
 
You didn't know what kinda fish you caught,
'Cause I am a shark, beware of my bark,
I'll eat you up like the center of a tootsie pop.
 
'Cause we were a match in heaven high,
Only one catch, Frank was the boss, right,
And it's so sad, 'cause the only way,
That you know how to love is fight.
 
Give it to me, give it to me, everything,
You know how I like my world on a string.
I didn't want nothing from you,
Just to be like you, my king.
 
Give it to me, give it to me, everything,
You know how I like my world on a string.
 
You know how I like my world on a string,
You know how I like my world on a string,
You know how I like my world on a string.

For a second I thought 'you know how I like my world on a string' refers to the String Theory but she's probably talking about pearls //// fishing metaphor?  :eek:

 

AH I get it now (well, I think so) - Catch and release is catching a fish and then throwing it back in water I assume. So the guy she's talking about wants to pick her up just to toss her away and she likes her world 'on a string' because that's the stage between 'catching' her and throwing her away (fish on the string imagery there). Only that he doesn't know he caught a shark so beware RAH LANA she's crazy don't mess with her. 

 

my incoherent interpretation  :teehee:

I know I am making a reply to this a couple of years too late but now that we know about Lana's obsession with science it wouldn't surprise me if she was also somehow referencing the String Theory lmao  :toofunny:

 

EDIT: this was meant to be a joke. lmao at y'all taking it seriously

On asking google about "world on a string" I got this:

 

http://www.lyricsfreak.com/f/frank+sinatra/ive+got+the+world+on+a+string_20055267.html

I thought that world on a string was about living at the edge

Though it's quite likely she's referencing Frank Sinatra's use of it (Frank was the boss, right?), having the world on a string is a common expression similar to having the world at your feet/fingertips or the world is your oyster. It means something like being in control of things, having things go your way, or having a promising future. It may also have a connotation of the world being one's plaything.

i know this is random but does anyone have an mp3 link of catch and release that i can download to dropbox?

i tried to get the song off of YT but all of the vids are either pitched or sped up.

when i got my new phone, i lost the original file and it’s not on my dropbox anymore either.

what are the differences between version 1 and 2?

i just hear production/mixing differences

the version 2 instrumental is fuller w/ more layers and effects, on her vocals as well
