LikeAnAmerican 34 Posted August 23, 2014 Quick question, "Freedom comes from the call" what exactly does she mean by that? Thanks! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tropicunt 638 Posted August 23, 2014 I think she's referring to the fact that her man is a religious man. Growing up catholic I often heard about things like "following God's call." So maybe she's saying that her man thinks freedom comes from following God.. Does that make sense? Quick question, "Freedom comes from the call" what exactly does she mean by that? Thanks!

Mafiosa 1,089 Posted August 25, 2014 I think this song is satirical, but also a very spiritual song with many allusions to heaven and God. The use of hallelujah/alleluia is a factor. Also, I think the "land that's far away" is heaven. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HEARTCORE 18,971 Posted August 31, 2014 Does anyone else think she's being sarcastic in this song? Yeah, I think that this, the chorus of BKBY and the majority of FMWUTTT are satirical. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thunder Revenant 20,943 Posted August 31, 2014 Of course it's sarcastic, but .. well you can sing along non-sarcastic without problems 4 Quote Just do it. Just do it - don't wait! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mafiosa 1,089 Posted August 31, 2014 I only think the chorus is sarcastic, where she chants about money, power, and glory... The verses are quite thoughtful 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sitar 22,210 Posted September 1, 2014 Yeah, I think that this, the chorus of BKBY and the majority of FMWUTTT are satirical. + Sad Girl, Pretty When You Cry...she bitter on this album 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Intriguing Penguin 867 Posted September 5, 2014 The chorus is so powerful, and gives it a "We Are The Champions" feel, but yet that edge of sarcasm makes me feel as if there is something deeper into it. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FoxieLana23 3 Posted September 6, 2014 Does anyone else hear "Dope and diamonds, that's all that I am" in the bridge? In fact, if the official lyrics weren't transcribed on the last page, I'd be 100% sure that's what she says. I've been singing it this way since the day it first came out, so... whatever anyone else says, this is what I think is correct. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brooklynbaby91 1,385 Posted June 2, 2015 I think Lana just has a lot of fantasies of being fucked up female archetypes. I don't think she seriously wants to be a gold digger, but she probably thinks it's fun to think about and she's just indulging that in this song. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DominicMars 1,763 Posted June 3, 2015 This song is clearly sarcastic, due to the overall tone.I do question on whether or not PWYC and Brookyn Baby are satirical.I recall her saying in an interview something about hating when her boyfriend said that to her. Yes, but I don't recall it being sarcasm? I'm on the fence with sad girl. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mind Melt 10,095 Posted June 13, 2015 I always like to pretend she sings 'I can do it if you really really like, Dad' bc it gives it the whole sex-daddy spin thing and I like it better 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
