Greenwich 1,052 Posted February 22, 2014 All dressed up with nowhere to go That's the story of the girl you know, me I'm all smiles but inside I frown, 'cause I seen you walking around with Betty Lou Didn't I tell you what I heard about her? It don't matter to you, it don't matter to you, it don't matter to you What them other girls do, you'll date anyone, you'll date anyone How they more fun than me, baby? I'm smiling, the New Jersey Queen, and You're the best thing I ever seen, so won't you Pull up your white Corvette, Jimmy? Let me get a better look at your face I know it ain't noon, but I know what you like So come on inside and I'll fix you ice cream A little banana split for you, Jimmy You're so fine, you're like silk la roux I guess that's why you keep slipping through my fingers You're the states #1 and everybody knows it You smile all the time, 'cause how can you not show it? When even you know that you're so to die for, to die for What do I need to get high for? When I have you? When I have you? It don't matter to you, it don't matter to you, it don't matter to you What those other girls done, I'm gonna prove to you, I'm gonna prove to you You'll never find nobody more fun More fun 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Very YBIATR vibes with some possible connections to YGLM, UATW along with the line seen in Carmen's bridge. So cute, I love it! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Greenwich 1,052 Posted February 23, 2014 Could it be "silk la roux" or something like that? I was thinking silk la rue, silk larue, silk laroo, I honestly don't know. I'm just certain it's not maroon... 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Honey 43 Posted February 25, 2014 Sounds rather like "What do I need to get high for?" a lil difference from the UATW line 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm in the middle of organizing my unreleased songs. I have an "outtakes" album for BTD of about 30 tracks, and two albums with original album name ideas like The Revenge of Lana Del Rey and The World is Ours (about 60 tracks between the two). I'm just trying to find any random songs from this time period that I can slip in 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
