Royals - 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 a torn up town, no post code envy 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 Cristal, 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 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 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, 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 Cristal, 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 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 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 Life is great without a care We're not caught up in your love affair We're bigger than we ever dreamed And I'm in love with being queen And we'll never be 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 You can call me Queen Bee And baby I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule We're bigger than we've ever dreamed

He rā paki i Te Pōporo Pōhutu i te wai pūāhuru Ka hoki ngā mahara ki te ohinga o taku pāpā (O taku pāpā) He rā paki Kia hīia ake te ika nui Ka haea te kiri Te oha ka mihia Katoa mai i tai Mai i uta (Mai i uta) Ahureinga o te aroha Tā te tamariki mahi, he wāwāhi tahā E te tau, ka tau kē! He aha rā kei tua? Ā tōna wā ka mōhio (Mōhio) Tai kato, kao mai ana te whai Whakarongo rā ki ngā manu a Rehua Ngā ngaru o te moana Kua tau nei a Hine-raumati Kua hora ko te paki o Hewa, o Rūhī ki te ao mārama E ngā uri o anamata Ka rite rā koe ki a wai rā? Ki ahau e noho nei, e pohewa ana? Ka noho atu ki tō ipo, kataina ai ngā whetū? Anō te whaea i te ohinga (I te ohinga) Whitikina koe e te rā, ko tō ātārangi ka mahue ki muri He tānga manawa Mauri ora (Ora, ora, ora) Kia hiwa (Hiwa, hiwa, hiwa) Mauri ora (Ora, ora, ora) Kia hiwa (Hiwa, hiwa, hiwa) Mauri ora (Ora, ora, ora) Kia hiwa (Hiwa, hiwa, hiwa) Mauri ora (Ora, ora, ora) Kia hiwa (Hiwa, hiwa, hiwa) I kitea rānei te māramatanga e āta whāia ana?

I remember when your head caught flame It kissed your scalp and caressed your brain (I remember when your head caught flame) Well, you laughed, baby, it's okay It's buzzcut season anyway (Well, you laughed, baby, it's okay) Explosions on TV And all the girls with heads inside a dream So now we live beside the pool Where everything is good We ride the bus with the knees pulled in People should see how we're living (We ride the bus with the knees pulled in) Shut my eyes to the song that plays Sometimes this has a hot, sweet taste (Shut my eyes to the song that plays) The men up on the news They try to tell us all that we will lose But it's so easy in this blue Where everything is good And I'll never go home again (Place the call, feel it start) Favourite friend (And nothing's wrong, when nothing's true) I live in a hologram with you We're all the things that we do for fun (And I'll breathe, and it goes) Play along (Make-believe it's hyper real) But I live in a hologram with you Cola with the burnt-out taste I'm the one you tell your fears to There'll never be enough of us Explosions on TV And all the girls with heads inside a dream So now we live beside the pool Where everything is good And I'll never go home again (Place the call, feel it start) Favourite friend (And nothing's wrong, when nothing's true) I live in a hologram with you We're all the things that we do for fun (And I'll breathe, and it goes) Play along (Make-believe it's hyper real) But I live in a hologram with you
