Royals Lyrics by Lorde 2013

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…!

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 Cadillac in our dreams.
But everybody's like crystal, 
May bach, diamonds on your time piece.
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 for money.

But every song's like gold teeth,
Grey goose, trippin' in the bathroom.
Blood stains, ball gowns, trashin' the hotel room,
We don't care, 

We're driving cadillacs in our dreams.
But everybody's like crystal, 
Maybach, diamonds on your time piece.
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.

We're bigger than we ever dreamed,
And i'm in love with being queen.
Life is game 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.
