Lorde Tribute EP

 Royals

I've never seen a diamond in the flesh I cut my teeth on wedding rings in the movies
And I'm not proud of my address in a torn-up town, no postcode envy
But every song's like gold teeth, Grey Goose, tripping in the bathroom
Bloodstains, ball gowns, trashing the hotel room
We don't care, we're driving Cadillacs in our dreams
But everybody's like Cristal, Maybach, diamonds on your timepiece
Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash
We don't care, we aren't caught up in your love affair

And we'll never be royals it don't run in our blood
That kind of luxe just ain't for us we crave a different kind of buzz
Let me be your ruler you can call me Queen Bee
And I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule let me live that fantasy

My friends and I, we've cracked the code we count our dollars on the train to the party
And everyone who knows us knows that we're fine with this we didn't come from money
But every song's like gold teeth, Grey Goose, tripping in the bathroom
Bloodstains, ball gowns, trashing the hotel room
We don't care, we're driving Cadillacs in our dreams
But everybody's like Cristal, Maybach, diamonds on your timepiece
Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash
We don't care, we aren't caught up in your love affair

We're bigger than we ever dreamed and I'm in love with being queen
Life is great without a care we aren't caught up in your love affair
I've never seen a diamond in the flesh I cut my teeth on wedding rings in the movies
And I'm not proud of my address in a torn-up town, no postcode envy
But every song's like gold teeth, Grey Goose, tripping in the bathroom
Bloodstains, ball gowns, trashing the hotel room
We don't care, we're driving Cadillacs in our dreams
But everybody's like Cristal, Maybach, diamonds on your timepiece
Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash
We don't care, we aren't caught up in your love affair

The Louvre

Well, summer slipped us underneath her tongue our days and nights are perfumed with obsession
Half of my wardrobe is on your bedroom floor use our eyes, throw our hands overboard
I am your sweetheart psychopathic crush drink up your movements, still I can't get enough
I overthink your punctuation use not my fault, just a thing that my mind do
A rush at the beginning I get caught up, just for a minute
But lover, you're the one to blame, all that you're doing
Can you hear the violence megaphone to my chest
Broadcast the boom boom boom boom and make them all dance to it
Broadcast the boom boom boom boom and make them all dance to it

Our thing progresses I call and you come through blow all my friendships to sit in hell with you
But we're the greatest they'll hang us in the Louvre down the back, but who cares still the Louvre
Okay I know that you are not my type still I fall)
I'm just the sucker who let you fill her mind but what about love
Nothing wrong with it supernatural just move in close to me, closer, you'll feel it coasting
A rush at the beginning I get caught up, just for a minute
But lover, you're the one to blame, all that you're doing
Can you hear the violence megaphone to my chest
Broadcast the boom boom boom boom and make them all dance to it
Broadcast the boom boom boom boom and make them all dance to it

Well, summer slipped us underneath her tongue our days and nights are perfumed with obsession
Half of my wardrobe is on your bedroom floor use our eyes, throw our hands overboard
I am your sweetheart psychopathic crush drink up your movements, still I can't get enough
I overthink your punctuation use not my fault, just a thing that my mind do
A rush at the beginning I get caught up, just for a minute
But lover, you're the one to blame, all that you're doing
Can you hear the violence megaphone to my chest
Broadcast the boom boom boom boom and make them all dance to it
Broadcast the boom boom boom boom and make them all dance to it

Million Dollar Bills

There's nothing I want but money and time million dollar bills and a tick
There's nothing more cruel than only nine lives unlimited spice would do the trick
We can leave the house lead the party let the people know
Go drown the colors of our minds and watch the cars go

There's nothing as fun as coming untied and running with the kids in the park
There's nothing that's hurt like letting you go a tiger burn eyes in the dark
We can leave the house lead the party let the people know
Go drown the colors of our minds and watch the cars go

It's not about just being out with all our people
Because we can get in trouble just by going free flow
And now I'm letting you know and now I'm letting you know
And now I'm letting you know and now I'm letting you know

Bravado

All my life I've been fighting a war I can't talk to you or your friends
It's not only you my heart jumps around when I'm alluded to this will not do
Because I was raised up to be admired to be noticed but when you're withdrawn it's the closest thing
To assault when all eyes are on you this will not do
I'm faking glory lick my lips toss my hair and turn the smile on
And the story's brand-new but I can take it from here I'll find my own bravado

It's a switch flipped it's a pill tipped back, it's a moon eclipsed
And I can tell you that when the lights come on I'll be ready for this
It's in your bloodstream a collision of atoms that happens before your eyes
It's a marathon run or a mountain you scale without thinking of size
I was frightened of every little thing that I thought was out to get me down
To trip me up and laugh at me but I learnt not to want
The quiet of the room with no one around to find me out
I want the applause, the approval, the things that make me go

The Love Club

I'm in a clique but I want out it's not the same as when I was punched
In the old days there was enough the card games and knees with the bitter salt of blood
I was in, but I want out my mother's love is choking me
I'm sick of words that hang above my head what about the kid it's time the kid got free
Be a part of the love club everything will glow for you
Go get punched for the love club for the love club

I joined the club and it's all on there are fights for being my best friend
And the girls get their claws out there's something about hanging out with the wicked kids
Take the pill, make it too real the other day I forgot my old address
I'm sitting pretty on the throne there's nothing more I want except to be alone
Be a part of the love club everything will glow for you
Go get punched for the love club for the love club

Your clothes are soaked and you don't know where to go
So drop your chin and take yourself back home
And roll out your maps and papers find out your hiding places again
The only problem that I got with the club is how you're severed from the people
Who watched you grow up when you're a member
Go on your great adventure again and we'll be waiting at the end
Be a part of the love club everything will glow for you
Go get punched for the love club for the love club

Solar Power

I hate the winter can't stand the cold I tend to cancel all the plans so sorry, I can't make it
But when the heat comes something takes a hold can I kick it I can
My cheeks in high color, overripe peaches no shirt, no shoes, only my features
My boy behind me, he's taking pictures lead the boys and girls onto the beaches
Come one, come all, I'll tell you my secrets I'm kinda like a prettier Jesus
Forget all of the tears that you've cried it's over it's a new state of mind are you coming, my baby?

Acid green aquamarine the girls, the dancing in the sand
And I throw my cellular device in the water can you reach me no, you can't
My cheeks in high color, overripe peaches no shirt, no shoes, only my features
My boy behind me, he's taking pictures lead the boys and girls onto the beaches
Come one, come all, I'll tell you my secrets I'm kinda like a prettier Jesu
Turn it on in a new kind of bright it's solar 
Come on and let the bliss begin blink three times when you feel it kicking in
That solar power
