Royals Lyrics

[v1]
I've never seen a diamond in the flesh
I cut my teeth on wedding rings - in the movies
& I'm not proud of my address
in the torn up town
no post code envy
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 cadillacs in our dreams
but everybody's like

crystal
Maybach
diamonds on your timepiece
jet planes
islands
tigers on a gold leash
...we don't care
we aren't caught up in your love affair

[chorus]
& we'll never be royals (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 (ruler)
you can call me queen bee
and I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule
let me live that fantasy
[v2]
my friends & I
we've cracked the code
we count our dollar$ on the train - to the party
& 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
tripping' in the bathroom
blood stains
ball gowns
trashing' the hotel room
...we don't care
we're driving cadillacs in our dreams

but everybody's like
crystal
Maybach
diamonds on your timepiece
jet planes
islands
tigers on a gold leash
...we don't care
we aren't caught up in your love affair
[chorus]
& we'll never be royals (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 (ruler)
you can call me queen bee
and I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule
let me live that fantasy

[bridge]
we're bigger than we ever dreamed,
& I'm in love with being queen
life is great without a care
we aren't caught up in your love affair

[chorus]
& we'll never be royals (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 (ruler)
you can call me queen bee
and I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule
let me live that fantasy
