Here Carly sings about the negative side of success
IMHO, her album EMOTION is one of the greatest pop albums of the generation with real solid production and very catchy tunes.
[Verse 1]
I remember being naked
We were young freaks just fresh to LA
Never cared about the fake kids
We would write and sing and wear whatever
[Pre-Chorus 1]
But money makes your whole world spin
'Til everything is dizzy, and
And, suddenly...
[Chorus]
Planes, I'm hopping
Cards, I'm dropping
No shop can fill me up
There's a little black hole in my golden cup, so
You pour, and I'll say stop
Planes, I'm hopping
Cards, I'm dropping
No shop can fill me up
There's a little black hole in my golden cup, so
You pour, and I'll say stop, so
Take me into your arms again
Shake me from L.A. hallucinations
[Verse 2]
Haven't seen the boy in ages
Used to stay up all night he and I
Filling up each other's pages
But the teeth come out when the camera flashes
[Pre-Chorus 2]
We said we'd always be the same
But we lost each other in the game
Cause suddenly...
[Chorus]
Planes, I'm hopping
Cards, I'm dropping
No shop can fill me up
There's a little black hole in my golden cup, so
You pour, and I'll say stop
Planes, I'm hopping
Cards, I'm dropping
No shop can fill me up
There's a little black hole in my golden cup, so
You pour, and I'll say stop, so
Take me into your arms again
Shake me from L.A. hallucinations
[Bridge]
Buzzfeed buzzards, and TMZ crows
What can I say that you don't already know?
Buzzfeed buzzards, and TMZ crows
If I just lie here, then will you let me go?
[Chorus]
Planes, I'm hopping
Cards, I'm dropping
No shop can fill me up
There's a little black hole in my golden cup, so
You pour, and I'll say stop
Planes, I'm hopping
Cards, I'm dropping
No shop can fill me up
There's a little black hole in my golden cup, so
You pour, and I'll say stop, so
Take me into your arms again
Shake me from L.A. hallucinations
[Chorus + (Bridge)]
Take me into your arms again
(Buzzfeed buzzards and TMZ crows
What can I say that you don't already know?)
And shake me from L.A. hallucinations
(Buzzfeed buzzards and TMZ crows
If I just lie here, will you let me go?)
Take me into your arms again
(Buzzfeed buzzards and TMZ crows
What can I say that you don't already know?)
And shake me from L.A. hallucinations
