Píseň: This Is What Makes Us Girls

Interpret:
Lana Del Rey
Album:
Born to Die
Remember how we used to party up all night
Sneakin' out and lookin' for taste of real life
Drinkin' in the small town firelight
(Pabst Blue Ribbon on ice)


Sweet sixteen and we had arrived
Walkin' down the streets as they whistle, "Hi, hi!"
Stealin' police cars with the senior guys
Teachers said we'd never make it out alive


There she was, my new best friend
High heels in her hands, swayin' in the wind
Oh she starts to cry, mascara running down her Little Bambi eyes
Lana how I hate those guys


This is what makes us girls 
We all look for heaven and we put our love first
Don't you know we'd die for it? It's a curse
Don't cry about it, don't cry about it


This is what makes us girls 
We all stick together 'cause we put love first
Don't cry about him, don't cry about him
It's all going to happen


And that's where the beginning of the end began
Everybody knew that we had too much fun
We were skippin' school and drinkin' on the job
With the boss


Sweet sixteen and we had arrived
Baby's table-dancing at the local dive
Cheerin' our names in the pink spotlight
Drinkin' cherry schnapps in the velvet night


Yeah we used to go break into the hotel 
Pool glimmering we'd swim
Runnin' from the cops in our black bikini tops 
Screamin', "Get us while we're hot, get us 
While we're hot" 


This is what makes us girls 
We all look for heaven and we put our love first
Don't you know we'd die for it? It's a curse
Don't cry about it, don't cry about it


This is what makes us girls 
We all stick together 'cause we put love first
Don't cry about him, don't cry about him
It's all going to happen


The prettiest in-crowd that you had ever seen
Ribbons in our hair and our eyes gleamed mean
A freshmen generation of degenerate
beauty queens
And you know something?


They were the only friends I ever had
We got into trouble and when stuff got bad
I got sent away and was wavin' 
On the train platform
Cryin' 'cause I know I'm never comin' back


This is what makes us girls 
We all look for heaven and we put our love first
Don't you know we'd die for it? It's a curse
Don't cry about it, don't cry about it


This is what makes us girls 
We all stick together 'cause we put love first
Don't cry about him, don't cry about him
It's all going to happen
