Sitar 22,210 Posted October 15, 2012 Methamphetamine, pink flamingoBlue ‘50s queen, Blue Oyster Cult/CoveFurther we dreamWhy don’t we go to Coney Island?One day among, the ballad sungThe record spins blue '50s songThe veranda looks ocean ???Neon palms swayWhat’s happening?Where did we go?The Jersey Shore was long agoAs with our hopesAnd Ocean GroveAnd so I bid you farewell 11 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cherrycola 1 Posted October 17, 2012 I think this is right...? *Blue oyster cult = BLUE OYSTER CLOVE *[???] = "ONE DIA AMONG" THE BALLARD SUNG (dia means day - spanish) or "ONE DIAMOND" *shimmery = chez moi (my house or my style - french) 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt 984 Posted October 18, 2012 I think this is right...? *Blue oyster cult = BLUE OYSTER CLOVE Yeah, I hear an "L" after the C, so I don't think it's Blue Oyster Cult. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sitar 22,210 Posted October 18, 2012 Problem is...Blue Oyster Cult is actually a thing, and hardly any variation on it is. Unless you guys know something I don't? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think it matters if it's a thing or not. Sure the lyric makes no sense reading it back, but that's what it says. After all this is the "Lyrics" section not "Lines that make sense." 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TrailerParkDarling 5,692 Posted October 18, 2012 I really hope that its blue oyster cult (cos they're amazing) but I don't hear it either but accept it since my research shows nothing for blue oyster clove.. lol all I found was this: Bluebelly/blue.bell.y./n./ 1. a slang term for meth/amphetamine and that there is something called "Blue Sky" meth candy you can make that seems to include oysters?? idk thats a weird part of the internet Also off topic but I saw this Daytona500= Meth. I didn't know that! Also, Roses is slang for Amphetamine so that might give us some help with the song "Roses" and "Bel Air" but it may just mean Roses haha. And then in Carmen she mentions White Lightening and that's slang for Hallucinogens. There could very well be double meanings as I was going through this list and seeing that she's used quite a bit of them lmao. Kept seeing Ketamine referred to as K and Special K but I really think it's an actual person 6 Quote *** People call me crazy but I'm in demand *** Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kept seeing Ketamine referred to as K and Special K but I really think it's an actual person omg i've listened to 2 BOC song's and they're pretty good! also that reminds me "Blue" "Oyster" "Clove" are all slang words for drugs "blue-blue cmeth" "oyster-coke" "clove-fags". also i can't wait for bel air to come out, yer i had a hunch that lana was singing about ketamine not a guy in k, but i have no idea!! i'll dm you! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kept seeing Ketamine referred to as K and Special K but I really think it's an actual person also theres a famous rehab clinic in daytona, fl, that i think treats all opiate drugs and lana sings about some of them so maybe that's something? off topic why aren't the lyrics being updated? are they wrong? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
youcallmelavender 31 Posted November 4, 2012 One dia among, the ballard sung I hear, "One day among, the ballad (not ballard lolol) sung/song" not quite sure if it's "sung" or "song". I think "one day among" makes much more sense while you're listening to it as well as "ballad". 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lola 6,641 Posted January 9, 2013 I definitely hear blue oyster clove, there's no way she could be saying cult, it doesn't sound anything like that. I also hear "Further they dream". 1 Quote Caesar said he’d fall in love with me if I was older. I own all of Mexico and I got my own roller-coaster. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YUNGATA 14,955 Posted February 12, 2013 I'm thinking it's Blue Oyster Cult just because there's a band of the same name that started in the late 60s and I think they originated from Long Island, given Lana's adoration for New York I feel like it fits. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"Cult" is still what I sing when I'm in my evening gown and noose, arguments against it be damned! Yes, this song is an evening gown and a noose to me. Artsy. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
