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 the torn up town no postcode envy
[Pre-chorus:]
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 aren't caught up in your love affair
[Chorus:]
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
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
[Pre-chorus + Chorus]
We're bigger than we ever dreamed
and I'm in love with being queen
Life is great without a care
We aren't caught up in your love affair
[Chorus]
