She's Not Me

[Your Girl Lana]

Let’s go!

When you got her in the back seat
Driving down the back streets
Trying to block me out
(Do you remember my name?)
Cruising down Santa Monica Boulevard
Does it light up the spark?
(Do you remember my name?)

Is she a ride or die bitch?
Does she know I’m tattooed onto your heart?
You can try to fight it
I have left my mark on you
There is nothing you can do

When you think you’re over me

And your bad baby's dead and gone
(Remember)
I’m the ghost in your machine
I’m your real life suicide blonde
(You think that)
You’re in love, you’re in love, you’re in love
Well she might be in, might be hot
But baby, she’s not me

When you take her to Chateau Marmont
'Cause you book the top suite
Lay her on the bed
(Do you remember my name?)
Strip her down to her bare ass,
In her Kiki Montparnasse like I used to have.
(Do you remember my name?)

Is she a ride or die bitch?
Does she make you shiver under your skin
Just the way that I did?
It wont be the same again
She don’t compare to who I am

When you think you’re over me
And your bad baby's dead and gone
(Remember)
I’m the ghost in your machine
I’m your real life suicide blonde
(You think that)
You’re in love, you’re in love, you’re in love
Well she might be in, might be hot
But baby, she’s not me

You try to forget and you tell her that you miss her
But I bet every time you go to kiss her
You get a hot rush feeling on your lips
It’s me taking over you, throwing you a curve ball
Reminding you of our true romancin’
Just like the first time you learned to dance and
I showed you all those moves she can’t do
She’s not me

When you think you’re over me
And your bad baby's dead and gone
(Remember)
I’m the ghost in your machine
I’m your real life suicide blonde
(You think that)
You’re in love, you’re in love, you’re in love
Well she might be in, might be hot
But baby, she’s not me

When you think you’re over me and

Your bad baby is dead and gone,

(Remember)

I’m the ghost in your machine,

I’m your real life suicide girl.

 

You’re in love,

You’re in love,

You’re in love,

Well she’s nothing here,

Might be hard,

But baby she’s not me

She’s not me.

 

When you think you’re over me and

Your bad baby's dead and gone

(Remember)

I’m the ghost in your machine,

I’m your real life suicide blonde

 

(You think that)

You’re in love,

You’re in love,

You’re in love,

Well she might be here

Might be hard,

But baby she’s not me

 

And is it "Might be hard" or "Might be hot"? I'm not sure.

 

It’s taking over you,

Throwing you a curve ball,

Reminding you of our true romancin’.

 

Just like the first time, you and me dancin’.

I show you all those moves she can’t do.

She’s not me

It’s me taking over you,

Throwing you a curve ball,

Reminding you of our true romancin’.

Just like the first time you learned to dance and

I showed you all those moves she can’t do.

She’s not me

 

And finally...

In her kinky, mom pant ass,

It's "In her Kiki Montparnasse". Explanation here.

 

Kinky mom pant ass. Wow. MILF alert. Best misheard Lana lyric ever.

Oh! That was you! I remember reading that back then and thinking, who is this fine fellow posting Man Ray links in the Lana Del Rey thread of this forum that i know absolutely nothing about?

 

Kinky mom pant ass 4-ever

It's "In her Kiki Montparnasse". Explanation here.

In the SIN post linked above, I'd provided a link to a shirt sold by the lingerie and bondage shop Kiki de Montparnasse, but it was broken. I've now updated the post to point to an archived version of the page. Looks awfully familiar, doesn't it?

[PoisonIvy]

I never thought much of the 'ghost in your machine' lyric until my philosophy lesson today (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghost_in_the_machine). I never seem to catch her with nonsense lyrics, I love that!

[Hundred Dollar Bill]

I hear, "might be hip, might be hot."

[Sitar]

Man, I forgot how much the beginning of this song reminded me of Portishead.

 

 

So good.

[Trash Magic]

unfortunately the rest of the song doesn't live up to the intro

[CatchTheBreeze]

This is one of my favourite Lana tracks! Reminds me of Goldfrapp.

[PinUpGaloreLana]

if this song were an actual woman. Oh the things i would do

[radiodasirius]

By far my favorite song

[Chiunzhan]

We always get the lyrics wrong  

[Jazzmin]

Probably the first unreleased Lana song I've ever heard <3 . Back then I didn't know she had so many of them, lol.

 

And hell yeah, "kinky mom pant ass" rocks . Nice one.

You have to admit Lana can bring the sexy if she really wants to

This song sounds like some producer gave her 15 minutes to write lyrics and test them out or something.  I only listen to it because it comes on right after Serial Killer on my playlist.  I always think this is such a weird little song.  The intro is totally out of place and the rest of it reminds me of a Kylie Minogue b-side.

[MaterialDiamond]

This song is so sassy  Love it.

[Wilde_child]

Some bits are Gagaesque.

[Brooklyn Fetus]
