Lady Gaga - ARTPOP Album Lyrics

---

Aura

I killed my former and
Left her in the trunk on highway 10
Put the knife under the hood.
If you find it, send it straight to Hollywood

Hahahaha hahahaha hahahaha
Aura-a-a-a Aura-a-a-a
Aura-a-a-a Aura-a-a-a
Aura-a-a-a Aura-a-a-a

I'm not a wandering slave, I am a woman of choice
My veil is protection for the gorgeousness of my face
You ought to pity me cause there's always one man to love
But in the bedroom the size of him's more than enough

Do you wanna see me naked, lover?
Do you wanna peek underneath the cover?
Do you wanna see the girl who lives behind the aura, behind the aura?
Do you wanna touch me, cosmic lover?
Do you wanna peek underneath the cover?
Do you wanna see the girl who lives behind the aura
Behind the aura, behind the aura, behind the aura?

Enigma popstar is fun, she wear burqa for fashion
It's not a statement as much as just a move of passion
I may not walk on your street or shoot a gun on your soil
I hear you screaming, is it because of pleasure or toil?

Dance, sex, ARTPOP, tech
Dance, sex, ARTPOP, tech

Do you wanna see me naked, lover?
Do you wanna peek underneath the cover?
Do you wanna see the girl who lives behind the aura, behind the aura?
Do you wanna touch me, cosmic lover?
Do you wanna peek underneath the cover?
Do you wanna see the girl who lives behind the aura
Behind the aura, behind the curtain, behind the burqa?

ARTPOP

G.U.Y.

[Intro]
Greetings from Himeros
God of sexual desire, son of Aphrodite
Lay back, and feast as this audio guides you through new and exciting positions

[Verse 1]
I wanna be the Girl Under You (oh yeah)
I wanna be your G.U.Y (yeah)
I wanna be the grave and earth you (oh yeah)
Our sexes tell us no lies

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm gonna wear the towel, the power to leave you
I'm aiming for full control of this love (of this love)
Touch me, touch me, don't be sweet
Love me, love me, please retreat
Let me be the girl under you that makes you cry

[Chorus]
I wanna be that guy (G.U.Y.)
I wanna be that guy (G.U.Y.)
I wanna be that guy (G.U.Y.)
The Girl Under you (GUY)

[Verse 2]
I'm gonna say the word
And own you
You'll be my (G.I.R.L)
Guy, I'm romance and love's to hold you
Know, you wear my make-up well

[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]

[Bridge]
I don't need to be on top
To know what it does him strong enough to know the truth
I just wanted to be hot
Because I'm best when I'm in love, and I'm in love with you
Guy, Why? (touch me touch me)
Guy, Why? (touch me touch me)
Guy, Why? (on top of me)
Guy, Why?
Touch me touch me, don't be shy
I'm in charge like a G.U.Y
I lay down face up this time

[Chorus(x2)]

Sexxx Dreams

(Last night) Our lovers' quarrel (I was thinking about you)
Hurt more than I can say (And it was kind of dirty)
All night (And the way that you looked at me)
Help me here! (It was kind of nasty, aah!)
Help me here! (It was kind of trashy)
Cause I can't help my mind from going there!

[Pre-Chorus]
Heard your boyfriend was away this weekend
Wanna meet at my place?
Heard that we both got nothing to do...
When I lay in bed, I touch myself and think of you

[Chorus 1]
Last night
Damn, you were in my sex dreams (you were in my)
Doing really nasty things (you were in my)
Damn, you were in my sex dreams (don't stop the party)
Making love in my sex dreams (4x)

We could be caught (I just want this to be perfect)
We're both convicted criminals of thought (cause I'm broken)
Let's white- (by the one before) glove the bed
(He was kind of nasty)
Help me here!
(And I feel so trashy)
Cause we can't hide the evidence in our heads!

[Chorus 2]
Last night
Damn, you were in my Sexxx dreams (You were in my)
Doing really nasty things (You were in my dreams)
Damn, you were in my Sexxx dreams (you were in my)
Making love in my Sexxx dreams
Don't stop the party (Making love in my Sexxx dreams)
Let's keep it naughty (Making love in my Sexxx dreams)
Watch me act a fool (Making love in my Sexxx dreams)
Tomorrow when I run into you, Tomorrow when I run into you

You could turn a stone
Or the color of a man petrified by a woman
In love as I am when I lay with you
I think of him, I think of him

[Speaking]
I can't believe I'm telling you this, but I've had a couple drinks and...
Oh my God!

[Chorus 3]
Last night
Damn, you were in my Sexxx dreams (You were in my)
Doing really nasty things (You were in my dreams)
Damn, you were in my Sexxx dreams (you were in my)
Last night
Don't stop the party (Damn, you were in my Sexxx dreams)
Let's keep it naughty (Doing really nasty things)
Watch me act a fool (Damn, you were in my Sexxx dreams)
Tomorrow when I run into you (Making love in my Sexxx dreams)


[Bridge at iTunes Festival]
We were in the swimming pool. I was naked, so were you, and I wrote this song while we made love
Dangerous poetry rhymed with our bodies and now's the time for the trial with doubts and drawls
(I can't believe I'm telling you this, but I've had a couple of drinks and, oh my god -laughs-)

Jewels N' Drugs

Yeah, it's about that time, yeah
Time ta take off partna, alright
Hustle Gang, uh huh, G-D-O-G
Get your doe or die partna
Yup, let's go

[Verse 1: T.I.]
Still Bankhead, shawty, yeah you know what it is
Pockets full of number of rubber bands and bills
Came up around that standard wheel
Was finna do a deal about 60 mill
You ain't live that life, you perpetrating
You wasn't really trapping circling birds of prey
You ain't have to beat no murder case
Man, you probably couldn't get a ho any day
'Round my way can't get murder planned
Ain't no hoop, play dirty, man
Put some through your jersey, man
If your partner want some we can do it again
Okay, H-U-S-T-L-E G-A-N-G, yeah wait
Yeah, pull up, pull up, hop out, hop out
All about the dollar, better go ahead, Gaga...

[Hook: Lady Gaga]
Don't want your jewels, I want your drugs
Don't want your money, want your love
Don't want your jewels, I want your drugs
Don't want your jewels, I want your drugs
Don't want your money, want your love

[Verse 2: Lady Gaga]
I admit that my habit's is expensive
And you may find it, quite offensive
But I won't die at the hands of another
I'm your mother sister, your father brother
This family is stupid attractive
If you've surveyed the way we've acted
Keep it coming, I'm coming around like your friend now
I think you should shut up and sit down

[Hook]

[Verse 3: Too Short]
Airbody want that money what you want
High as hell trying to have some f*cking fun
You don't need 'em but the diamonds make it shine
Tried to kick it just can't find the time
It's the middle of the week, this ain't even the weekend
Red carpet events, every time you see pimps
It's good pussy in the passenger seat
My lil' homies hang with me, I be passing 'em freaks

[Bridge: Lady Gaga]
Jewels n' drugs, play that hustle
Smother 'em, if you wanna be bad
Slap honey on a young pancake
We know how to make that money
Jewels n' drugs, play that hustle
Smother 'em, if you wanna be bad
Ain't nothin' if it ain't family
We know how to make that money

[Beat Break]
DJ White Shadow!

[Verse 4: Twista]
Come and show me the gateway into your love
I feel like the money could never do it like the club
I feel like a diamond can never do it like a drug
And I want it so come on and take it with me so that I can hit it
I can admit it, I'm influenced by desire when I approach her
I try to provoke her by giving money and jewelry and accessories
Instead of the recipe with a legacy of taking her to another place when I get it
Hold up
Twista going in warp speed breaking atoms
Blowing O.G. has got me creating anti matter
Let her pop it and smoke on it with me now
I got her because she ready to party and then move to the club
Because you know the way I think is an anomaly
And I'ma be strange as Lady Gaga
Probably
A dollar be the business
But I'd rather be in an outer dimension when I be talking about jewels n' drugs

Jewels n' drugs, play that hustle
Smother 'em, if you wanna be bad
Slap honey on a young pancake
We know how to make that money
Jewels n' drugs, play that hustle
Smother 'em, if you wanna be bad
Ain't nothin' if it ain't family
We know how to make that money

Do What U Want

I feel good, I walk alone
But then I trip by myself and I fall
I, I stand up, and then I'm okay
But then you print that shit
That makes me want to scream

So do what you want
What you want with my body
Do what you want
Don't stop, let's party
Do what you want
What you want with my body
Do what you want
What you want with my body

Write what you want
Say what you want bout me
If you're wondering
Know that I'm not sorry

Do what you want
What you want with my body
What you want with my body

You can't have my heart
And you won't use my mind but
Do what you want (with my body)
Do what you want with my body
You can't stop my voice cause
You don't own my life but
Do what you want (with my body)
Do what you want (with my body)

Early morning, longer nights
Tom Ford, private flights
Crazy schedule, fast life
I wouldn't trade it in
'Cause it's our life (now let's slow it down...)

I could be the drink in your cup
I could be the green in your blunt
Your "pusha" man, ya I got what you want
You wanna escape all of the crazy shit
You're the Marilyn, I'm the president
And I'd love to hear you sing, girl

Do what I want
Do what I want with your body
Do what I want
Do what I want with your body
Back of the club, taking shots, getting naughty
No invitations, it's a private party
Do what I want
Do what I want with your body
Do what I want
Do what I want with your body
Ya we taking these haters and we roughin' 'em up
And we laying a cut like we don't give a f*ck

You can't have my heart
And you won't use my mind but
Do what you want (with my body)
Do what you want with my body
You can't stop my voice cause
You don't own my life but
Do what you want (with my body)
Do what you want (with my body)

Sometimes I'm scared I suppose
If you ever let me go
I would fall apart
If you break my heart
So just take my body
And don't stop the party

You can't have my heart
And you won't use my mind but
Do what you want (with my body)
Do what you want with my body
You can't stop my voice cause
You don't own my life but
Do what you want (with my body)
Do what you want (with my body)

Do what you want with me
What you want with my body
Do what you want with me
What you want with my body
Do what you want with me
What you want with my body
Do what you want with me
What you want with my body

Artpop

Free my mind, ARTPOP
You make my heart stop

Come to me, in all your glamor and cruelty
Just do that thing that you do
And I'll undress you

Give it time
Sometimes the simplest move is right
The melody that you choose
Can rescue you

A hybrid can withstand these things
My heart can beat with bricks and strings
My ARTPOP could mean anything

We could, we could, belong together (ARTPOP)
We could, we could, belong together (ARTPOP)
We could, we could, belong together (ARTPOP)
ARTPOP, ARTPOP

Come to me
With all your sub-text and fantasy
Just do that thing that you do
For my love is you

Love is fly, I've flown my beaches with lover's side
The color palette you choose
Can profit you

A hybrid can withstand these things
My heart can beat with bricks and strings
My ARTPOP could mean anything

Could try to sell you out or I
Could show you all the reasons why
My ARTPOP could mean anything

We could, we could, belong together (ARTPOP)
We could, we could, belong together (ARTPOP)
We could, we could, belong together (ARTPOP)
ARTPOP, ARTPOP

We could, we could, belong together (ARTPOP)
We could, we could, belong together (ARTPOP)
We could, we could, belong together (ARTPOP)
ARTPOP, ARTPOP

Brushes with darkness won't help you create your destiny of super
ARTPOP could mean anything... ANYTHING!
I try to sell myself but I am really laughing
Because I just love the music, not the bling
Music, not the bling

We could, we could, belong together (ARTPOP)
We could, we could, belong together (ARTPOP)
We could, we could, belong together (ARTPOP)
ARTPOP, ARTPOP

We could, we could, belong together (ARTPOP)
We could, we could, belong together (ARTPOP)
We could, we could, belong together (ARTPOP)
ARTPOP, ARTPOP

Free my mind, ARTPOP
You make my heart stop

Swine

[Chorus:]
I know, I know, I know, I know you want me
You're just a pig inside a human body
Squealer, squealer, squeal out, you're so disgusting!
You're just a pig inside... swine.

[Guitar Solo and Beat Break]

[Verse 1:]
Pungent, don't think I want hear another (not another word from you)
You're just an animal, just trying to act real special (but deep down you're just a shrew)
Maybe I should have a little more just to stay out of my mind
Cause it's when I'm not thinking with you that I act like a swine!

[Chorus x2]

[Post-Chorus]
Swine! [x4]

[Beat Break]
Swine! [x2]

[Verse 2:]
Payback, how much will I ask you, squealer? (let your body jiggle)
That skinny, let your ass go quicker (it's the thrill of ecstasy)
Maybe I should have a little more just to stay out of my mind?
Cause it's when I'm not thinking with you that I act like a swine!
Act like a swine! Act like a swine!

[Chorus x2]

[Post-Chorus]

[Beat Break]

[Outro:]
Paint your face and
Paint her face and
(Catch the beat)
Paint your face and
Paint her face and
(Catch The beat)
Paint your face and
Be a stranger
(Catch The beat)
For the weekend
(Catch The beat) [etc.]
Swine!

Mary Jane Holland

[Verse 1]
Lady of the 'dam
Won't be a slave to the blonde
or the culture of the popular
She won't, she won't
Sing at you I'll
Fly under radar tonight
Make deals with every devil in sight
I will, I will

[Pre-Chorus]
Cause I love, love, cause I love, love
You better than, you better than
My darkest sin
Russian hookers, and cheap gin

[Chorus]
I think that I could be fine
If I could be Mary Jane Holland tonight
I think we'd have a good time
If you'd meet me and Mary Jane in Holland tonight

[Post-Chorus]
Mary Jane Holland Whoooh-Whooo
Mary Jane Holland Whoooh-Whooo

[Verse 2]
I don't like to boast
But our truffles are the most
Mad-magical in Amsterdam
(She won't, she won't)
So if you have fear, Apollo
Sit on my lyre, and
Play him like a piano man
(I will, I will)

[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Post-Chorus]

[Bridge]
I know that Mom and Dad think I'm a mess
But it's alright, because
I am rich as piss
When I ignite the flames and put you in my mouth
The grass heats up my insides and my brunette starts to sprout
Introducing, ladies and gentleman, Mary Jane Holland!

[Chorus]
[Post-Chorus]

Dope

[Verse 1:]
Cork's off, it's on
The party's just begun
I promise this
Drink is my last one
I know that I f*cked up again
'Cause I lost my only friend
God forgive my sins

Don't leave me, I
Oh I'll myself until I die

[Chorus:]
My heart would break without you
Might not awake without you
Been hurting low, from living high for so long
I'm sorry, and I love you
Sing with me, "Bell Bottom Blue"
I'll keep on searching for an answer cause I need you more than dope

[Post-Chorus:]
I need you more than dope
Need you more than dope
Need you more than dope
I need you more than dope

[Verse 2:]
Toast one last puff
And two last regrets
Three spirits and
Twelve lonely steps
Up heaven's stairway to gold
Mine myself like coal
A mountain of a soul
Each day, I cry
Oh, I feel so low from living high

[Chorus]
[Post-Chorus]

[Outro:]
I need you more
Need you more
I need you more than dope

Gypsy

Sometimes a story has no end
Sometimes I think that we could just be friends
'Cause I remind when you said to me
Then what about our future plans?
Does it seem we have to make sense?
When I got the whole world in front of me

So I said; "I don't wanna be alone forever"
But I can be tonight
I don't wanna be alone forever
But I love a gypsy life
I don't wanna be alone forever
Maybe we can see the world together
I don't wanna be alone forever
But I can be tonight, tonight

So I just packed my baggy jean
Said goodbye to family and friends
And took the road, and know I'm on my own
Like Dorothy on a yellow brick
Hope my ruby shoes get us there quick
'Cause I left everyone I love at home

And I don't wanna be alone forever
But I can be tonight
I don't wanna be alone forever
But I love a gypsy life
I don't wanna be alone forever
Maybe we can see world together
I don't wanna be alone forever
But I can be
I can be tonight
Oh, would you go with me?
Tonight

See the world with me

'Cause I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm
A gypsy, a gypsy, a gypsy
I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm
A gypsy, a gypsy, a gypsy
I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm
A gypsy, a gypsy, a gypsy
I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm
A gypsy, a gypsy, a gypsy, I'm

And then he asked he said baby
Why do we love each other
I said honey it's simple
It's the way that you love and treat your mother
Thought that I'd be alone forever
But I won't be tonight
I'm a man without a home
But I think with you I can spend my life
And you'll be my little gypsy princess
Pack your bags and chase the sunset
Bust the rearview and fire up the jets
'Cause it's you and me
Baby, I'm alive

Would you go with me? For life
See the world with me

'Cause I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm
A gypsy, a gypsy, a gypsy
I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm
A gypsy, a gypsy, a gypsy. I'm

Russia, UK, Paris, I'm
Italian, Asia kompai
Africa, India, I'm
A gypsy, a gypsy, a gypsy
Latin American, I don't speak German but I try
Someday in Jakarta, I
American, I'm gypsy I
Bangkok, Australia, Malaysia
Sweden, Finland, Norway
Be my home just for the day
Danke schon
I'm a gypsy, gypsy, gypsy

Applause

[Verse 1:]
I stand here waiting for you to bang the gong
To crash the critic saying, "Is it right or is it wrong?"
If only fame had an I.V., baby could I bear
Being away from you, I found the vein, put it in here

I live for the applause, applause, applause
I live for the applause-plause
Live for the applause-plause
Live for the way that you cheer and scream for me
The applause, applause, applause

Give me that thing that I love (I'll turn the lights on)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch (make it real loud)
Give me that thing that I love (I'll turn the lights on)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch (make it real loud)

(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E) Make it real loud
(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E) Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch
(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E) Make it real loud
(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E) Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch

[Verse 2:]
I've overheard your theory "nostalgia's for geeks"
I guess sir, if you say so, some of us just like to read
One second I'm a Koons, then suddenly the Koons is me
Pop culture was in art, now art's in pop culture in me

I live for the applause, applause, applause
I live for the applause-plause
Live for the applause-plause
Live for the way that you cheer and scream for me
The applause, applause, applause

Give me that thing that I love (I'll turn the lights on)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch (make it real loud)
Give me that thing that I love (I'll turn the lights on)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch (make it real loud)

(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E) Make it real loud
(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E) Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch
(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E) Make it real loud
(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E) Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch

[Bridge:]
Touch, touch
Touch, touch now
Ooh-ooh-ooh-hoo
Ooh-ooh-ooh-hoo
Ooh-ooh-ooh-hoo
Ooh-ooh

I live for the applause, applause, applause
I live for the applause-plause
Live for the applause-plause
Live for the way that you cheer and scream for me.
The applause, applause, applause

Give me that thing that I love (I'll turn the lights on)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch (make it real loud)
Give me that thing that I love (I'll turn the lights on)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch (make it real loud)

(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E) Make it real loud
(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E) Put your hands up, make 'em touch (make it real loud)
(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E) Make it real loud
(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E) Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch
