slang 1,532 Posted June 17, 2014 She's singing this "live", so her sticking to the lyrics as in her notebook is not certain. Anyway, I'm hearing sometimes (not that it matters that much). I'm a sad girl, I'm a sad girl I'm a sad girl I'm a sad girl, I'm a *mad* girl I'm a bad girl and I'm a sad girl, I'm a sad girl I'm a sad girl I'm a sad girl, I'm a bad girl I'm a *mad* girl Also I'm getting impressed with the number of drug references in combination with the toxic relationship references. This is maybe not strongest in this song, but I'm not sure of that, at least there's: "Creeping around while he gets high It might not be something you would do" and all those fire references. How ironic would it be if there were a strong relationship between drugs and toxic relationships throughout, as that could be construed as a feminist agenda (substance abuse == toxic relationships). Interesting that the super-delux BOX has lyrics. I was thinking she wanted me to think the lyrics weren't as central, although I'm understanding most of what she says. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sweetie 6,627 Posted June 17, 2014 I hear "his bonny on the side, bonny on the side, makes me a sad, sad girl. his money on the side, money on the side, makes me a sad, sad girl."I can't seem to hear "a sad sad girl".. maybe you would hear better if I slowed it down for you? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cocaineandcola 12 Posted June 23, 2014 I thought I had listened "He's got the fire, and he walks with IT / He's got the fire, and he talks with IT" in the beginning as well. Maybe, somehow, a reference to Twin Peaks's "Fire walk with me". I might have disfunctional ears, though. I thought this, too! In TP, the "fire" represents death. Makes sense... About K, maybe? 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

plush 656 Posted August 27, 2014 It has to be Bonney, like Bonney and Clide, perfect couple, and since Lana is the side chick, that's why she's so sad. That's how I relate to the lyrics so it has to be 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prettydrugs 456 Posted October 5, 2014 I thought I had listened "He's got the fire, and he walks with IT / He's got the fire, and he talks with IT" in the beginning as well. Maybe, somehow, a reference to Twin Peaks's "Fire walk with me". I might have disfunctional ears, though. I hear that too and thought the same! Id love if it's really a TP reference. Btw I saw many people saying it's 'and he walks / talks with Fame' but i dont hear that tbh 0 Quote let the light in, it's a cruel world Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlueJeans 2,606 Posted October 5, 2014 May I just say that I love the lines "But you haven't seen my man" musically... 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sweetie 6,627 Posted November 27, 2014 I usually craft out these complex music videos in my mind when listening to songs, but that just doesn't happen with Sad Girl for some reason. I don't know what to think, feel, or see. Yet it's my favourite song from UV. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IconicSoul 196 Posted November 29, 2014 "His bonny on the side makes me so sad girl His money on the side makes me so sad girl" I think she totally means that the chick that he cheats Lana with and the drug money he makes makes her sad This is the best song of UV hands down 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PARADIXO 32,940 Posted November 29, 2014 "His bonny on the side makes me so sad girl His money on the side makes me so sad girl" I think she totally means that the chick that he cheats Lana with and the drug money he makes makes her sad This is the best song of UV hands down It's the most addictive song on the album imo 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wild One 3,306 Posted May 21, 2015 Well, here are the official lyrics for "Sad Girl": Sad Girl Bein’ a mistress on the side, it might not appeal to fools like you. Creepin’ around on the side would not be something you would do. But you haven’t seen my man, you haven’t seen my man. You haven’t seen my man, you haven’t seen him. He’s got the fire, and he walks with it. He’s got the fire, and he talks with it. His bonny on the side, bonny on the side makes me so sad, girl. His money on the side, money on the side makes me so sad, girl. I’m a sad girl, I’m a sad girl, I’m a sad girl. I’m a sad girl, I’m a bad girl, I’m a bad girl. Bein’ a bad bitch on the side, might not appeal to fools like you. Creepin’ around while he gets high, it might not be something you would do. But you haven’t seen my man, you haven’t seen my man. You haven’t seen my man, you haven’t seen him. He’s got the fire, and he walks with it. He’s got the fire, and he talks with it. His bonny on the side, bonny on the side makes me so sad, girl. His money on the side, money on the side makes me so sad, girl. I’m a sad girl, I’m a sad girl, I’m a sad girl. I’m a sad girl, I’m a bad girl, I’m a bad girl. Watch what you say to me, careful who you’re talkin’ to. Watch what you say to me, careful who you’re talkin’ to. I’m on fire, baby. I’m on fire. He’s got the fire, and he walks with it. He’s got the fire, and he talks with it. His bonny on the side, bonny on the side makes me so sad, girl. His money on the side, money on the side makes me so sad, girl. I’m a sad girl, I’m a sad girl, I’m a sad girl. I’m a sad girl, I’m a mad girl, I’m a bad girl. I’m a sad girl, I’m a sad girl, I’m a sad girl. I’m a sad girl, I’m a mad girl, I’m a bad girl. There are few changes. Credit for @@LanaDelBae for the official lyrics. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
