Royals Songtext

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 the torn up town No post code envy
But every song's like gold teeth, Grey Goose Tripping in the bathroom Blood stains, 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 (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) 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 Blood stains, 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 (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) Let me live that fantasy
Ooh, ooh, ooh We're bigger than we ever dreamed And I'm in love with being queen Ooh, ooh, 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) Let me live that fantasy
