Art Deco

Recommended Posts

Club queen on the downtown scene
Prowling around at night
You're not mean you're just one to be seen
One to be wild

A little party never hurt no one
That's why it's so right
You want in but you just can't win
So you hang in the lights

You're so Art Deco
Out on the floor
Shining like gunmetal
Cold and unsure
Baby you're so ghetto
You're looking to score
And they all say hello
You try to ignore them

Cause you want more (why?)
You want more (why?)
You want more (why?)
Cause you want more

Young thing on the downtown scene
Rolling around at night
Got things that've yet to be seen
Like your rapper's delight

A little party never hurt no one
That's why it's so right
You want in but you just can't win
So you stay in the lights

You're so Art Deco
Out on the floor
Shining like gunmetal 
Cold and unsure
Baby you're so ghetto
You're looking to score
And they all say hello
You try to ignore them

Cause you want more (why?)
You want more (why?)
You want more (why?)
Cause you want more

A little party never hurt no one
So you stay out late
A little party never hurt no one
That's what your friends say

Put your life out on the line 
You're crazy all the time
Put your life out on the line
You're crazy all the time

You're so Art Deco
Out on the floor
Shining like gunmetal 
Cold and unsure
Baby you're so ghetto
You're looking to score
And they all say hello 
You try to ignore them

Cause you want more (why?)
You want more (why?)
You want more (why?)
Cause you want more

A little party never hurt no one
Not you and me
A little party never hurt no one
We were born to be free

What if this is about Gaga?

Gaga also references "the downtown scene" in a few of her songs.

EXPOSED :hooker:

OMG ur Ryt!!!! "Art Deco" is "So Legit Pt 2" and also Lady Gaga's recent album was called "Art Pop" . Art Deco also has that same sarcastic tone as "So Legit". Plus Lana has reused the line "Queen of the downtown scene" in "Art Deco" which she had previously used in "So Legit". So I definitely think these two songs are connected.

 

SO LEGIT : You called me the queen of the downtown scene, babe.

ART DECO : Club queen on the downtown scene

 

"So Legit"

 

You were the freak king

Of the piercing shop,

All the girls thought they could sing,

But they're really not shit.

I don't get it

 

You're looking like a man,

You're talking like a baby.

How the fuck is your song in

a Coke commercial, crazy?

I don't get it,

Your taste once exquisite.

 

What happened to Brooklyn,

What happened to New York?

What happened to my scene,

What happened to punk rock, rock?

 

You called me the queen of the downtown scene, babe.

How the fuck would you switch it up and then replace me?

I don't get it, I'm so legit.

 

Tell me was it 'cause I wasn't platinum and jewels?

That perhaps you thought I was a little bit even uncool.

Kid, was that it?

 

Stefani, you suck, I know you're selling twenty million.

Wish they could have seen you when we booed you off in Williamsburg.

You're hurt, I know my words don't hurt, yeah.

 

Oh, girl, I see you walking 'round in your pearls,

Thinking that you're number one.

You're so funny, 'cause honey, you're not.

 

What happened to Brooklyn, the last frontier?

They said you could make it anywhere,

If you can make it here.

But, where?

No magic in the air?

 

What happened to Brooklyn,

What happened to our scene, baby?

Have we all gone Gaga crazy?

Remember when the streets used to be

dangerous and we were born bad,

And we were born bad?

 

Punk rock, punk rock.

 

The boys used to punch each other in the face,

and girls were walking around wasted.

And everybody had a good night,

Come back in the sunlight.

 

Punk rock, Punk rock.

 

Rock.

Yaas it has GREAT GATSBY TEAS 
 
 
 

I was wondering since Art Deco font & Art Deco graphic design were used in The Great Gatsby poster whether the song ART DECO is somehow related to YOUNG & BEAUTIFUL. Also the font used in the title Honeymoon is Art Deco so.....

I've been listening and I definitely hear:

 

Shining like gun metal

Cold and unsure

 

As opposed to:

 

Shining like a medal

Gold on the shore

 

I've tried both while listening and it just really sounds like "gun metal" and "cold and unsure"
