Notes

Electra Heart

Candy bear, sweety pie
I wanna be adored
I'm the girl you'd die for

I chew you up and I'll spit you out
'Cause that's what young love is all about
So pull me closer and kiss me hard
I'm gonna pop your bubblegum heart (Bubblegum bitch)

Beauty queen on a silver screen
Living life like I'm in a dream
I know I've got a big ego
I really don't know why it's such a big deal though (Primadonna)

You're never gonna love me, so what's the use?
What's the point of playing a game you're gonna lose?
What's the point in saying you love me like a friend?
What's the point in saying it's never gonna end? (lies)

Every boyfriend is the one, until otherwise proven
The good are never easy, the easy never good
And love, it never happens like you think it really should

Deception and perfection are wonderful traits
One will breed love, the other hate
You'll find me in the lonely hearts
Under "I'm after a brand new start" (homewrecker)

You don't love me, big fucking deal
I'll never tell you how I feel
Sometimes I ignore you so I feel in control
'Cause really, I adore you, and I can't leave you alone (starring role)

If only you knew my dear, how I live my life in fear
If only you knew my dear, how I know my time is near (state of dreaming)

Think you're funny, think you're smart
Think you're gonna break my heart
Think you're funny, think you're smart
Yeah, you may be good looking but you're not a piece of art (power and control)

Got bubble wrap around my heart
Waiting for my life to start
But everyday it never comes
Permanently at square one (living dead)

I wanna stay inside all day
I want the world to go away
I want blood, guts, and chocolate cake
I wanna be a real fake (teen idle)

In the Valley of the Dolls we sleep
Got a hole inside of me
Living with identities
That do not belong to me (valley of the dolls)

I know you only want to own me
And that's the kind of love you show me
You tell me one thing, and do another
Keep all your secrets undercover (hypocrates)

And now the time is here
Baby you don't have to live your life in fear
And the sky is clear
Is clear of fear (fear and loathing)

My heart is nuclear.
Love is all that I fear.
I'm turning radioactive.
My blood is radioactive (radioactive)

Nothing is provocative
Anymore, even for kids
No room for imagining
'Cause everyone's seen everything

Question what the TV tells you
Question what a pop star sells you
Question mum and question dad
Question good and question bad (*** yeah)

Laugh track on a TV show
Echoes in the dark alone
I go to bed feeling bad
That I'm the reason that you're sad

January to December
Do you want to be a member? (lonely hearts club)

Oh, we don't own our heavens now
We only own our hell
And if you don't know that by now
Then you don't know me that well (buy the stars)

This is how to be a heartbreaker
Boys they like a little danger
We'll get 'em falling for a stranger
A player, singing I lo-lo-love you
How to be a heartbreaker
Boys they like the look of danger
We'll get 'em falling for a stranger
A player, singing I lo-lo-love you
At least I think I do! (how to be a heartbreaker)
