Brooklyn Baby

Recommended Posts

They say I'm too young to love you
I don't know what I need
They think I don't understand
The freedom land of the 70's
 
I think I'm too cool to know ya
You say I'm like the ice I freeze
I'm churning out novels like
Beat poetry on amphetamines
 
I say, I say...
 
Well, my boyfriend's in a band
He plays guitar while I sing Lou Reed
I've got feathers in my hair
I get down to Beat poetry
 
And my jazz collection's rad
I can play almost anything
I'm a Brooklyn baby
I'm a Brooklyn baby
 
They say I'm too young to love you
They say I'm too dumb to sing
They judge me like a picture book
By the colors like they forgot to read
 
I think we're like fire and water
I think we're like the wind and sea
You're burning up, I'm cooling down
You're up, I'm down
You're blind, I see
 
But I'm free, I'm free...
 
Well, my boyfriend's in a band
He plays guitar while I sing Lou Reed
I've got feathers in my hair
I get down to Beat poetry

And my jazz collection's rad
I can play almost anything
I'm a Brooklyn baby
I'm a Brooklyn baby
 
I'm talking 'bout my generation
Talking 'bout that newer nation
And if you don't like it
You can beat it, beat it, baby
 
You never liked the way I said it
If you don't get it, then forget it
'Cuz I don't have to fucking explain it
 
And my boyfriend's in a band
He plays guitar while I sing Lou Reed
I've got feathers in my hair
I get high on hydroponic weed

And my jazz collection's rad
I get down to Beat poetry
I'm a Brooklyn baby
I'm a Brooklyn baby
 
Yeah, my boyfriend's pretty cool
But he's not as cool as me
'Cuz I'm a Brooklyn Baby
I'm a Brooklyn Baby

Not going to listen to this... it kills the excitement 

It's not that great, her voice is overpowered by the instrumental.

link it?

You literally can't.

 

Go to iTunes, then Store, search for Lana Del Rey, click her name somewhere, and it'll take you to her page and the video is right there.

From the snippet:

 

My boyfriend's in a band

He plays guitar while I sing Lou Reed

I've got feathers in my hair

I get down to be poetry (?)

"I get down to Beat poetry"  :creep:
