Lyrics[]
Cimorelli:
Oh whoa
Oh whoa
Amy with background vocals from Cimorelli:
I've never seen a diamond in the flesh
I cut my teeth on wedding rings
Amy and Christina:
In the movies
Amy with background vocals from Cimorelli:
And I'm not proud of my address
Amy and Christina with background vocals from Cimorelli:
In a torn-up town, no postcode envy
Christina:
But every song's like
Christina, Lisa, and Dani with background vocals from Lauren, Amy, and Katherine:
Diamonds, gold teeth, chillin' in the bathroom
Blood stains, ball gowns, trashin' the hotel room
Cimorelli:
We don't care, we're driving Cadillacs in our dreams
Christina:
Everybody's like
Christina, Lisa, and Dani with background vocals from Lauren, Amy, and Katherine:
Black tights, Maybach, diamonds on your timepiece
Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash
Cimorelli:
We don't care, we aren't caught up in your love affair
Katherine and Lisa with background vocals from Cimorelli (Cimorelli):
And we'll never be royals (royals)
It don't run in our blood
That kind of luxe just ain't for us
We crave a different kind of buzz
Katherine, Lisa, and Dani with background vocals from Lauren, Amy, and Christina:
Let me be your ruler (ruler)
You can call me queen bee
And, baby, I'll rule
Amy:
I'll rule
Christina and Lauren:
I'll rule
Lisa:
I'll rule
Katherine:
Let me live that fantasy
Cimorelli:
Oh oh
Oh oh
Dani and Lisa with background vocals from Cimorelli:
My friends and I
We've cracked the code
We count our dollars on the train
Cimorelli:
To the party
Dani and Lisa with background vocals from Cimorelli:
And everyone who knows us
Cimorelli:
Knows
Dani and Lisa with background vocals from Cimorelli:
That we're fine with this
We didn't come from money
Lisa:
But every song's like
Christina, Lisa, and Dani with background vocals from Lauren, Amy, and Katherine:
Diamonds, grey teeth, trippin' in the bathroom
Blood stains, ball gowns, trashin' the hotel room
Cimorelli:
We don't care, we're driving Cadillacs in our dreams
Lisa:
But everybody's like
Christina, Lisa, and Dani with background vocals from Lauren, Amy, and Katherine:
Black tights, Maybach, diamonds on your timepiece
Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash
Cimorelli:
We don't care, we aren't caught up in your love affair
Lauren and Lisa with background vocals from Cimorelli (Cimorelli):
And we'll never be royals (royals)
It don't run in our blood
That kind of luxe just ain't for us
We crave a different kind of buzz
Lauren, Lisa, and Dani with background vocals from Katherine, Amy, and Christina:
Let me be your ruler (ruler)
You can call me queen bee
Katherine, Lisa, and Dani:
And, baby, I'll rule

I'll rule

I'll rule
Lisa:
I'll rule
Lauren:
Let me live that fantasy
Cimorelli:
Ohhh ohhh ohh
Dani and Lauren with background vocals from Cimorelli:
We're bigger than we ever dreamed
And I'm in love with being queen
Cimorelli:
Ohhh ohhh ohh
Lauren and Dani with background vocals from Cimorelli:
Life is great without a care
We aren't caught up in your love affair
Katherine and Lisa with background vocals from Cimorelli (Cimorelli):
And we'll never be royals (royals)
It don't run in our blood
That kind of luxe just ain't for us
We crave a different kind of buzz
