Dum Dum

[Your Girl Lana]

I'm a wild child, bright child, knocking at your door
You thought that you were done but now you want me even more, dum dum
You want me even more, dum dum
I'm a star child, big smile, living in L.A.
I'm coming over, baby, you can't go to school today, dum dum
Go to school today, dum dum

I belong to a bygone era
Like the Scarlett O'Hara of the downtown scene
'Cause I just wanna drink, I just wanna drink
I'm a popular singer, fam-bam zinger
Mansfield ringer from the Hollywood silver screen, silver screen

Once you've had something, something so beautiful
You'll never be the same
Once you've had a taste of heaven my way
You'll be forever changed

I'm a wild child, sky high, lying on your floor
I know I had a lot, but baby, what's a little more, dum dum?
Want a little more, dum dum
In my white mink, pink cigarettes from the store
We're making robberies from Tijuana to the shore, dum dum
'juana to the shore, dum dum

I belong to a bygone era
Like the Bugsy Malone of the deep Sahara
'Cause I'm on the scene, yeah, I'm on the scene
I'm a bad jazz singer, giving you the finger
No matter what, you'll linger
'Cause you like me even when I'm mean, I'm the queen

Once you've had something, something so beautiful
You'll never be the same
Once you've had a taste of heaven my way
You'll be forever changed
(x2)

Once you've had something, something so beautiful
You'll never be the same
Once you've had a taste of heaven my way
You'll be forever changed
(x2)

[Creyk]

Is this song about being an alcoholic? The verses seem to allude a love of alcohol and being in an intoxicated state and also these old hollywood references - then the chorus is about her having a magic puss that is life-changing.

[GodBlessMe]

this is an amazing song!!!

[Raise Me Up]

It's dumb dumb and dum dum. But it's a play on the words because a Dum Dum is an American sucker/lolipop brand. And in classic American slang a "sucker" is someone who is stupid/gullible. We also call people who are stupid dum dums because of the lolipop. So the phrase technically can be used both ways.
