Happiness Is A Butterfly - Lana Del Rey | English

Do you want me or do you not? I heard one thing, now I'm hearing another Dropped a pin to my parking spot The bar was hot, it's 2 AM, it feels like summer Happiness is a butterfly Try to catch it like every night It escapes from my hands into moonlight Every day is a lullaby I hum it on the phone like every night And sing it for my babies on the tour life Ah-ah If he's a serial killer, then what's the worst That could happen to a girl who's already hurt? I'm already hurt If he's as bad as they say, then I guess I'm cursed Looking into his eyes, I think he's already hurt He's already hurt I said, "Don't be a jerk, don't call me a taxi" Sittin' in your sweatshirt, cryin' in the backseat Ooh, oh-oh I just wanna dance with you Hollywood and Vine, Black Rabbit in the alley I just wanna hold you tight down the avenue I just wanna dance with you I just wanna dance with you Baby, I just wanna dance with you (dance, with you, dance) Baby, I just wanna dance with you (dance, with you) Left the canyon, drove to the club I was one thing, now I'm being another Go down to Sunset in the truck I'll pick you up if you're in town, I'm coming Ah-ah Happiness is a butterfly We should catch it while dancing, I Lose myself in the music, baby Every day is a lullaby Try to catch it like lightning, I Sing it into my music, I'm crazy If he's a serial killer, then what's the worst That could happen to a girl who's already hurt? I'm already hurt If he's as bad as they say, then I guess I'm cursed Looking into his eyes, I think he's already hurt He's already hurt I said, "Don't be a jerk, don't call me a taxi" Sittin' in your sweatshirt, cryin' in the backseat Ooh, oh-oh I just wanna dance with you Hollywood and Vine, Black Rabbit in the alley I just wanna hold you tight down the avenue I just wanna dance with you I just wanna dance with you Baby, I just wanna dance with you (Dance, with you, dance) Baby, I just wanna dance with you (Dance, with you, dance)

High up in the Hollywood hills, taking violet pills Writin' all of my songs about my cheap thrills You're a hard man to love, and I'm A hard woman to keep track of You like to rage, don't do that You want your way, you make me so mad Got your gun, I've got my dad Is this happiness? Is this happiness? Is this happiness? Is this happiness? High up in the Hollywood hills, crushin' violet pills You've been tryin' to write a novel about your cheap thrills You think you're Hunter S. Thompson I think you're fucking crazy as the day's long Man to man, heart to heart I love you, but you drive me so far Wish you well on that star Is this happiness? Is this happiness? Is this happiness? Is this happiness? Witch Hazel, Witch Hazel Betrayal, betrayal One gun on the table Headshot if you're able Is this happiness? Is this happiness? Is this happiness? Is this happiness?

Remember how we used to party up all night? Sneakin' out and lookin' for a 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 hand, swayin' in the wind While 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 Somethin' that we'd die for, it's our curse Don't cry about it, don't cry about it This is what makes us girls We all stick together 'cause we put our love first Don't cry about him, don't cry about him It's all gonna happen And that's where the beginnin' of the end begun 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 dancin' at the local dive Cheerin' our names in the pink spotlight Drinkin' cherry schnapps in the velvet night Yo, we used to go break into the hotel Glimmerin', 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" (C'mon, take a shot) This is what makes us girls We all look for heaven and we put our love first Somethin' that we'd die for, it's our curse Don't cry about it, don't cry about it This is what makes us girls We all stick together 'cause we put our love first Don't cry about him, don't cry about him It's all gonna 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 somethin'? They were the only friends I ever had We got into trouble and when stuff got bad I got sent away, I 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 Somethin' that we'd die for, it's our curse Don't cry about it, don't cry about it This is what makes us girls We all stick together 'cause we put our love first Don't cry about him, don't cry about him It's all gonna happen
