Royals / White Noise

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 postcode envy
But every song's like:
Gold teeth, Grey Goose, tripping in the bathroom
Bloodstains, 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, tiger's on a gold leash
We don't care
We're aren't caught up in your love affair

And we'll never be royals
It don't run in our blood
That kind of luxe 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

My friends and I, we've cracked the code
We count our dollars on the train to the party
And every one 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
Bloodstains, 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, tiger's on a gold leash
We don't care
We're aren't caught up in your love affair

And we'll never be royals
It don't run in our blood
That kind of luxe 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
Let me live that fantasy And we'll never be royals I know you're smart, you spin me round like a knot
You know the pieces, pieces of my heart
Sometimes it's fun, you pull my strings one by one
Until you get me, get me onto one

Lately I've been thinking if you wanna get tough
Then lets play rough
Lately I've been thinking if you wanna get tough
Then lets play rough

I don't need you, giving it straight to me
Giving it straight to me
You're just gonna get my back
I don't need you, telling me how to be
Telling me how to be
just gonna get my back, just gonna get my back
just gonna get my back, just gonna get my back
just gonna get my back
back, back, back, back, back, back, back, back...

All i hear is...

Just noise, white noise
Just noise, white noise
I'm hearing static
You're like an automatic
You just wanna keep me on repeat and hear me crying

Hear me crying!
