Gaga's *best* lyrics?


Woohoo

Featured Posts

Bloody Mary: whole song speaks to my Catholic art wh*re heart but objectively the verses are great songwriting 

We are not just art for Michelangelo to carve
He can't rewrite the agro of my furied heart
I'll wait on mountain tops in Paris, cold
J'veux pas mourir tout seule

G.U.Y:  my fav in every way

I don’t need to be on top to know I’m worth it
'Cause I'm strong enough to know the truth
I just want it to be hot
Because I’m best when I’m in love, and I’m in love with you

also love  

I'm gonna say the word and own you
You'll be my G.I.R.L
Guy I’m Romancin' Loves to hold you (oh, yeah)
Know you'll wear my makeup well (predicted bathtub scene in ASIB :toofunny:)

Gypsy:  opening lines make me think about my parents omg :ohno:
Sometimes a story has no end
Sometimes I think that we could just be friends

Speechless: 10 years later and still obsessed with this couplet 
Some men may follow me
But you choose death and company

And I loooove "Every John is just the same" its Dorothy Parker or Carrie Fisher level wit

"Marilyn, Judy, Sylvia
Tell 'em how you feel girls!

Work your blond (Jean) Benet Ramsey
We'll haunt like Liberace
Find your freedom in the music
Find your Jesus, find your Kubrick
You will never fall apart
Diana, you're still in our hearts
Never let you fall apart
Together we'll dance in the dark"

This lil metaphorical masterpiece

Another shot before we kiss the other side, I’m on the edge of something final we call life tonight. Put on your shades ‘cuz I’ll be dancin’ in the flames, but it isn’t Hell if everybody knows my name tonight.

 

These lyrics are so dear to me. I don't know why but I see myself, moments before finally coming out to my parents, after years of denial and mental pain!

Another minute before I kiss the other side, where my freedom is. I am on the edge of something I can finally call real life. Put on your shades, 'cause I'm so strong I radiate light. It's not the end of the world if everybody knows who I am tonight.

Love this woman :sara:

The fact she incorporated hitchcock films into lyrics to mean something else is pure genius :staymad:

I want your psycho, your vertigo shtick
Want you in my rear window
Baby you're sick, I want your love
Love-love-love, I want your love (Love-love-love, I want your love)

 

Hair lyrics I find are quite powerful :pawsup:

I scream Mom and Dad
Why can't I be who I wanna be?
(Uh huh, uh huh)
To be

I just wanna be myself
And I want you to love me for who I am
I just wanna be myself
And I want you to know, I am my hair

aldo edge of glory, MTN and many many others

the "and i want lots of friends that invite me to their parties" always gets me hah

(Uh huh, uh huh)
To be

that "to be" was "too bad"?

Aside from all the great pieces of lyrics you guys mentioned :heart: I really love the lyrics to Let love down and wonderful. 

 

I wrote a song about your eyes

Ate a slice of cherry pie

I cried all night

 

When we came to learn that Gaga is actually allergic to cherries this piece of lyric broke my heart. 

I'll lift you 3 inches off the ground and drag you to a meter and a half

This is beautiful! What I love about Gaga’s lyrics is they can be so specific to her own life and her own experiences, but they’re able to be molded into something completely new, something personal and meaningful for whoever listens to it. I love your interpretation so much!

See The Best In Everyone

Yes! That line kinda plays with loneliness and wanting people to  accept you I feel

yeah I thought that lyric sounded wrong, I just copied them from an online search lol, I’m pretty sure it’s too bad too

I almost love all the lyrics. But one stands out in particular. For myself it has nothing to do with ART or POP. But with all parts inside that make me the person I am. The light and the dark. It feels like my mantra, maybe a prayer even. 

 

Come to me, in all your glamour and cruelty
Just do that thing that you do
And I'll undress you
Give it time, sometimes the simplest move is right
The melody that you choose, can rescue you

A hybrid can withstand these things
My heart can beat with bricks and strings
My ARTPOP could mean anything

We could, we could belong together (ARTPOP)
We could, we could belong together (ARTPOP)
We could, we could belong together (ARTPOP)
ARTPOP, ARTPOP, ARTPOP

Come to me, with all your subtext and fantasy
Just do that thing that you do
In a perverse hue
Lover's kites, are flown on beaches for public sight
The color palette you choose, can profit you

A hybrid can withstand these things
My heart can beat with bricks and strings
My ARTPOP could mean anything

Could try to sell you out or I
Could show you all the reasons why
My ARTPOP could mean anything

We could, we could belong together (ARTPOP)
We could, we could belong together (ARTPOP)
We could, we could belong together (ARTPOP)
ARTPOP, ARTPOP, ARTPOP

Brushes with darknes won't help you create
Your destiny of self but ARTPOP could mean anything, anything
I try to sell myself but I am really laughing
Because I just want the music, not the bling
Music, not the bling

We could, we could belong together (ARTPOP)
We could, we could belong together (ARTPOP)
We could, we could belong together (ARTPOP)
ARTPOP, ARTPOP, ARTPOP

We could, we could belong together (ARTPOP)
We could, we could belong together (ARTPOP)
We could, we could belong together (ARTPOP)
ARTPOP, ARTPOP, ARTPOP

Free my mind, ARTPOP
You make my, heart stop

It's opposite day, let's praise her this time :staymad:

1: Heal Me | Y'all gonna smack me for this but I love the wordplay and paradox from the first verse: "Treat me like your patient, just don't keep me waiting. Or I'll just be wasted, in a crowd of the lonely." ugh ha mind.

2: Mary Jane Holland | With lines like "So if you have fear Apollo sit on my lyre" and "Our truffles are the most mad-magical in Amsterdam"  that are 100% random makes no sense but sounds like somethin from an ancient ode that's never discovered because it's too good for this world.

2: Venus | Just like 2, "Aphrodite lady seashell bikini, garden panty"  "Have an oyster, baby, it's Aphrodisy" "  + more makes no sense but are so good fsr.

3: Come To Mama | "Man it wasn't that long ago we were all livin' in the jungle." "We're talking the same old sh*t after all of these years" ugh her wisdom and awareness.

Come to mama was written by father John misty 

and if we’re being honest I don’t think heal me was written by her either :ohwell:

Smother Em Eh

Bad Romance- every verse

The Queen

Starry night come inside me like never before
Don't forget me when I come crying to heaven's door
I will fly on a challenger across the sky
Like a phoenix so you can remind them of the dream I bore

The Edge Of Glory

Another shot before we kiss the other side 
Tonight yeah baby, tonight yeah baby  
I'm on the edge of something final we call life tonight alright, alright

Put on your shades 'cause I'll be dancing in the flames 
Tonight yeah baby, tonight yeah baby
It isn't hell if everybody knows my name tonight alright, alright

Dope- 

Toast one last puff
And two last regrets
Three spirits and
Twelve lonely steps
Up heaven's stairway to gold
Mine myself like coal
A mountain of a soul

Million Reasons

I bow down to pray
I try to make the worst seem better
Lord, show me the way
To cut through all his worn out leather
I've got a hundred million reasons to walk away
But baby, I just need one good one to stay

-And many many more!-

Yes, this is so accurate. It’s exactly how I feel too, I just couldn’t quite describe it, but you did! :triggered:
