Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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 a torn up town, no post code envy
[Verse 2]
But every song's like
Gold teeth, Grey Goose, trippin' in the bathroom
Blood stains, ball gowns, trashing our hotel room
We don't care
We're driving Cadillacs in our dreams
But everybody's like
Cristal, Maybach, diamonds on your time piece
Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash
We don't care
We aren't caught up in your love affair
[Verse 3]
And we'll never be royals (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 (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
[Verse 4]
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
[Verse 5]
But every song's like
Gold teeth, Grey Goose, trippin' in the bathroom
Blood stains, ball gowns, trashing our hotel room
We don't care
We're driving Cadillacs in our dreams
But everybody's like
Cristal, Maybach, diamonds on your time piece
Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash
We don't care
We aren't caught up in your love affair
[Verse 6]
And we'll never be royals (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 (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
[Verse 7]
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Life is great without a care
We're not caught up in your love affair
[Verse 8]
Oh-oh
Oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
We're bigger than we ever dreamed
And I'm in love with being queen
[Verse 9]
Oh-oh
Oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
Life is great without a care
We're not caught up in your love affair
[Verse 10]
Oh-oh
Oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
We're bigger than we ever dreamed
And I'm in love with being queen
[Verse 11]
And we'll never be royals (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 (Ruler)
You can call me Queen Bee
And baby, I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule
[Verse 12]
Oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
We're bigger than we ever dreamed
