pakabug Posted July 20, 2015 Posted July 20, 2015 Who do we think this song is about? And what is she talking about "my momma would fall right on top of you?" hmmm... she rarely/never mentions her mom in a postive light in her lyrics the way she does her dad. Any thoughts? 4 Quote
Tristesse Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 I may be the only one but I think that this song is absolutly well written, to me it's one of her best lyrically 0 Quote
SissyReed Posted December 15, 2016 Posted December 15, 2016 Who do we think this song is about? And what is she talking about "my momma would fall right on top of you?" hmmm... she rarely/never mentions her mom in a postive light in her lyrics the way she does her dad. Any thoughts? Lana admires her father - she's daddy's girl, she thinks he's amazing and smart and all at the same time her and her mom "don't get along", i think that's it. and in this song she thinks her mom can actually steal her boyfriend lol idk but i totally feel this song, i have a similiar relationships with my parents + lana said once (about song COLA) that her dad liked it and thought the song was funny while her mom didn't think it was that funny so i think it pretty much sums up their relationship 0 Quote
evilentity Posted April 27, 2017 Posted April 27, 2017 My momma wouldn’t say you were a nice guy But you’re under 40 and you have a job ... My momma would say that it was wrong to see you I lied just to meet you, I lied to get in My momma, she would say that I deceived you But that’s the only way I knew how to begin Was listening to Sirens on the way in to work this morning when I realized these lyrics likely foreshadow her lying about her age. 4 Quote Stalking you has sorta become like my occupation.
Trash Magic Posted July 28, 2020 Posted July 28, 2020 This song has actually always been kind of a banger but it hits different now. I would love for someone to add drums and more to it 4 Quote "It's 2011, and we should all be aware of exactly how fast technology is developing" - Lana Del Rey
