[ti:Off To The Races]
[ar:Lana Del Rey]
[00:00.54] My old man is a bad man
[00:02.53] But I can't deny the way he holds my hand
[00:05.46] And he grabs me, he has me by my heart
[00:11.97] He doesn't mind I have a Las Vegas past
[00:15.00] He doesn't mind I have a L.A. crass way about me
[00:19.35] He loves me with every beat of his ******* heart
[00:23.66] Swimming pool, glimmering darling
[00:25.95] White bikini off with my red nail polish
[00:29.26] Watch me in the swimming pool
[00:30.63] Bright blue ripples, you
[00:32.20] Sittin', sippin' on your black Cristal, oh yeah
[00:35.89] Light of my life, fire of my loins
[00:38.66] Be a good baby, do what I want
[00:41.61] Light of my life, fire of my loins
[00:44.61] Give me them gold coins
[00:46.19] Give me them coins
[00:47.49] Now I'm off to the races, cases
[00:49.20] Of Bacardi chasers
[00:50.66] Chasin' me all over town
[00:52.86] 'Cause he knows I'm wasted,
[00:54.49] Facin' time again at Rikers
[00:56.69] Island and I won't get out
[00:58.87] Because I'm crazy, baby
[01:02.44] I need you to come here and save me
[01:04.86] I'm your little scarlet starlet
[01:07.32] Singin' in the garden
[01:08.62] Kiss me on my open mouth
[01:10.95] Ready for you
[01:14.96] My old man is a tough man
[01:17.58] But he got a soul as sweet as blood-red jam
[01:20.49] And he shows me, he knows me,
[01:23.20] Every inch of my tar black soul
[01:26.91] He doesn't mind I have a flat broke-down life
[01:30.27] In fact, he says he thinks it's why he might like about me
[01:35.59] Admires me, the way I roll like a rolling stone
[01:38.07] He likes to watch me in the glass room, bathroom,
[01:40.38] Chateau Marmont
[01:41.66] Slippin' on my red dress,
[01:43.22] Puttin' on my make-up
[01:44.62] Glass film, perfume, cognac, lilac
[01:47.71] Fumes, says it feels like heaven to him
[01:50.80] Light of his life, fire of his loins
[01:53.61] Keep me forever, tell me you own me
[01:56.66] Light of your life, fire of your loins
[01:59.67] Tell me you own me, give me them coins
[02:02.55] And I'm off to the races, cases
[02:04.33] Of Bacardi chasers
[02:07.02] Chasin' me all over town
[02:08.20] 'Cause he knows I'm wasted,
[02:11.04] Facin' time again at Rikers
[02:12.06] Island and I won't get out
[02:13.95] Because I'm crazy, baby
[02:17.38] I need you to come here and save me
[02:19.77] I'm your little scarlet starlet
[02:22.22] Singin' in the garden
[02:23.59] Kiss me on my open mouth
[02:25.99] Yo, I'm off to the races, laces
[02:27.63] Leather on my waist is
[02:29.67] Tight and I am falling down
[02:31.94] I can see your face is shameless
[02:34.26] Cipriani's ba*******t
[02:35.60] Love you but I'm going down
[02:37.93] God, I'm so crazy, baby
[02:41.58] I'm sorry that I'm misbehaving
[02:43.91] I'm your little harlot, starlet
[02:46.24] Queen of Coney Island
[02:47.72] Raisin' hell all over town
[02:49.95] Sorry 'bout it
[02:54.31] My old man is a thief, and I'm gonna stay and pray with him till the end
[03:03.09] But I trust in the decision of the Lord to watch over us
[03:09.23] Take him when he may, if he may
[03:11.91] I'm not afraid to say that I'd die without him
[03:17.06] Who else is gonna put up with me this way?
[03:20.10] I need you, I breathe you, I'd never leave you
[03:24.27] They would rue the day I was alone without you
[03:29.07] You're lyin' with your gold chain on, cigar hangin' from your lips
[03:32.83] I said, "Hun, you never looked so beautiful as you do now, my man"
[03:41.11] And we're off to the races, places
[03:43.10] Ready, set, the gate is
[03:44.76] Down and now we're goin' in
[03:47.10] To Las Vegas, chaos, Casino Oasis
[03:50.69] Honey, it is time to spin
[03:53.07] Boy, you're so crazy, baby
[03:56.62] I love you forever, not maybe
[03:58.96] You are my one true love
[04:01.92] You are my one true love
[04:23.64] You are my one true love.
[04:27.90]
