Royals Lyrics & Meanings: 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 post code envy / / But every song's like gold teeth, Grey Goose, trippin' in the bathroom / Bloodstains, ball gowns, trashin' 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, tigers on a gold leash / We don't care, we aren't caught up in your love affair / / And we'll never be royals / It don't run in our blood / That kind of lux 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 (I'll rule I'll rule 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 / / But every song's like gold teeth,
