"Royals" Lyrics
Lorde
- 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 the torn up town, no post code 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:
- Crystal
- 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 (royals)
- It don't run in our blood
- That kind of lux just ain't for us, we crave a different kind of buzz
- Let me be your ruler (ruler)
- You can call me queen bee
- And baby 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:
- Crystal
- 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 (royals)
- It don't run in our blood
- That kind of lux just ain't for us, we crave a different kind of buzz
- Let me be your ruler (ruler)
- You can call me queen bee
- And baby I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule
- Let me live that fantasy
- ooh ooh oh ooh
- We're better than we've every dreamed
- And I'm in love with being queen
- ooh ooh oh ooh
- Life is great without a care
- We aren't caught up in your love affair
- And we'll never be royals (royals)
- It don't run in our blood
- That kind of lux just ain't for us, we crave a different kind of buzz
- Let me be your ruler (ruler)
- You can call me queen bee
- And baby I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule
- Let me live that fantasy
