What makes us lana del rey lyrics

And know that she grew up, she has to live with it. So she made songs about. And everyone likes them because everyone wants to be the bad girl. I think being the good girl is easier and more satisfying. Just my opinion. Lyric Correction I have a different version, the end is completely different.. Remember how we used to party up all night Sneaking out and looking for a taste of real life Drinking in the small town firelight Pabst Blue Ribbon on ice Sweet sixteen and we had arrived Walking down the street as they whistle, "Hi, hi!

They were the only friends I ever had We got into trouble and when stuff got bad I got sent away, I was waving on the train platform Crying 'cause I know I'm never comin' back. This is what makes us girls We don't look for heaven and we put love first It's something that we'd die for, It's a curse Don't cry about it, don't cry about it This is what makes us girls We don't stick together 'cause we put love first Don't cry about him, don't cry about him It's all gonna happen chewedbluecrayon on June 12, Link.

The song documents the typical modern manifestation of female adolescence from the perspective of the girls with an added dash of self-awareness. They're only sixteen, but they feel as if they are adults "Sweet sixteen and we had arrived" and are desperate to experience "real life".

Convinced of their invincibility and intoxicated by the glamour of partying, they engage in wildly self-destructive behaviour. Their idiocy is tragic to witness - caught up in these notions of 'fun', they have no idea of the consequences of their impetuousness that verse about breaking into a hotel. The girls get written off by all those around them as hopeless stereotypes "Teachers said we'd never make it out alive".

Popular media views them only as "degenerate beauty queens" without a single redeeming feature - and yet they are people, and they are still true friends. Modern culture is then further criticised in the chorus, where girls put their romantic relationships over all others.

Girls today are encouraged through things eg. They'd die for it, even, which shows how unhealthy this culture is. What makes them girls is the inability to see past this bullshit - they are still immature and wholly subscribe to popular opinion. In many ways, the song is an elegy to the innocence of childhood. The train part yes I know Lana was sent to boarding school, whatever symbolises her graduation to adulthood.

She can never again return to the her previous ignorance. YouMorons on December 01, Link. General Comment these lyrics are wrong Natasha21 on May 26, Link. My Interpretation I think this song relates alot to Mean Girls, especially from Cady's perspective when she's looking back on what she's done and how bad she feels about it. Any Mean Girls fans feel free to leave your thoughts on my interpretation.

The second demo leaked on September 29, and the third demo leaked on January 23, Unlike most other demos of tracks from Born to Die , the demos have different vocal takes accommodating for lyric and tempo changes.

The song's first demo was produced by the song's co-writer, Tim Larcombe and the second and third demo were produced by Peter Ibsen. The final version shares the same background noise sample with " Off to the Races ". Lyrically, the song is Del Rey recounting her wild-child youth, while explaining things she and her friends did that made them girls, including looking for heaven and love, and putting men ahead of their friendships.

During an interview in May , Del Rey described the "stealing police cars with the senior guys" lyric is actually from her time in Lake Placid when an unnamed female friend of hers got into a police car with the door open, but failed to get away because she was unable to drive. Although the song has never been performed in its entirety, Del Rey sang the first verse and chorus a cappella on February 8, during a visit to Seacrest Studios at Children's Hospital in Dallas, Texas.
