“Just Dance”

Spoiler

[Intro: Lady Gaga]
Truth
RedOne
Konvict, Gaga (Oh-oh, eh)

[Verse 1: Lady Gaga]
I've had a little bit too much, much (Oh, oh, oh-oh)
All of the people start to rush (Start to rush by)
A dizzy twister dance, can't find my drink or man
Where are my keys? I lost my phone, phone (Oh, oh, oh-oh)

[Pre-Chorus: Lady Gaga]
What's goin' on, on the floor?
I love this record, baby, but I can't see straight anymore (Woo)
Keep it cool, what's the name of this club?
I can't remember, but it's alright, a-alright

[Chorus: Lady Gaga]
Just dance, gonna be okay, da-da-doo-doot-n
Just dance, spin that record, babe, da-da-doo-doot-n
Just dance, gonna be okay
Da-da-da-dance, dance, dance
Just, ju-ju-just dance

[Verse 2: Lady Gaga]
Wish I could shut my Playboy mouth (Oh, oh, oh-oh)
How'd I turn my shirt inside out? (Inside out, right)
Control your poison, babe, roses have thorns, they say
And we're all gettin' hosed tonight (Oh, oh, oh-oh)

[Pre-Chorus: Lady Gaga]
What's goin' on, on the floor?
I love this record, baby, but I can't see straight anymore
Keep it cool, what's the name of this club?
I can't remember, but it's alright, a-alright (Woo)

[Chorus: Lady Gaga]
Just dance, gonna be okay, da-da-doo-doot-n
Just dance, spin that record, babe, da-da-doo-doot-n
Just dance, gonna be okay
Da-da-da-dance, dance, dance
Just, ju-ju-just—

[Verse 3: Colby O'Donis]
When I come through on the dance floor, checking out that catalogue (Hey)
Can't believe my eyes, so many women without a flaw (Hey)
And I ain't gon' give it up, steady, tryna pick it up like a call (Hey)
I'ma hit it, I'ma beat it up, latch onto it until tomorrow, yeah
Shorty, I can see that you got so much energy
The way you twirlin' up them hips 'round and 'round
And there is no reason at all why you can't leave here with me
In the meantime, stay, let me watch you break it down and

[Chorus: Lady Gaga]
Dance, gonna be okay, da-da-doo-doot-n (Oh)
Just dance (Ooh, yeah), spin that record, babe, da-da-doo-doot-n
Just dance (Ooh, yeah), gonna be okay, da-da-doo-doot-n (Ooh, yeah)
Just dance (Ooh, yeah), spin that record, babe, da-da-doo-doot-n
Just dance (Oh), gonna be okay
Da-da-da-dance (Gonna be okay), dance, dance (Yeah)
Just, j-j-just dance (Oh-oh)

[Interlude]
Incredible
Amazing
Music
Woo, let's go

[Breakdown: Lady Gaga]
Half psychotic, sick, hypnotic, got my blueprint, it's symphonic
Half psychotic, sick, hypnotic, got my blueprint, electronic
Half psychotic, sick, hypnotic, got my blueprint, it's symphonic
Half psychotic, sick, hypnotic, got my blueprint, electronic

[Bridge: Lady Gaga]
Go, use your muscle, carve it out, work it, hustle
(I got it, just stay close enough to get it on)
Don't slow, drive it, clean it, Lysol, bleed it
Spend the last dough (I got it) in your pock-o (I got it)

[Chorus: Lady Gaga]
Just dance (Da-dance, oh), gonna be okay, da-da-doo-doot-n
Just dance, spin that record, babe, da-da-doo-doot-n
Just dance (Baby), gonna be okay, da-da-doo-doot-n
Just dance, spin that record, babe, da-da-doo-doot-n (Oh, baby, yeah)
Just dance, gonna be okay (Spin that record, baby, yeah)
Da-da-da-dance, dance, dance
Just, j-j-just dance

“Born This Way“

Spoiler

[Intro]
It doesn't matter if you love him
Or capital "H-I-M" (M, M, M, M)
Just put your paws up
'Cause you were born this way, baby

[Verse 1]
My mama told me when I was young
"We are all born superstars"
She rolled my hair and put my lipstick on
In the glass of her boudoir
"There's nothing wrong with loving who you are"
She said, "'Cause He made you perfect, babe"
So hold your head up, girl, and you'll go far
Listen to me when I say

[Chorus]
I'm beautiful in my way
'Cause God makes no mistakes
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way
Don't hide yourself in regret
Just love yourself and you're set
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way (Born this way)

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, there ain't no other way
Baby, I was born this way
Baby, I was born this way (Born this way)
Ooh, there ain't no other way
Baby, I was born this way
Right track, baby
I was born this way

[Interlude]
Don't be a drag, just be a queen
Don't be a drag, just be a queen
Don't be a drag, just be a queen
Don't be (Don't be, don't be)

[Verse 2]
Give yourself prudence and love your friends
Subway kid, rejoice your truth
In the religion of the insecure
I must be myself, respect my youth
A different lover is not a sin
Believe capital H-I-M, hey-hey-hey
I love my life, I love this record and
Mi amore vole fe yah (Same DNA)

[Chorus]
I'm beautiful in my way
'Cause God makes no mistakes
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way
Don't hide yourself in regret
Just love yourself and you're set
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, there ain't no other way
Baby, I was born this way
Baby, I was born this way (Born this way)
Ooh, there ain't no other way
Baby, I was born this way
Right track, baby
I was born this way

[Interlude]
(Way)
Don't be, don't be, don't be, d—
(Way)
Church

[Bridge]
Don't be a drag, just be a queen
Whether you're broke or evergreen
You're black, white, beige, chola descent
You're Lebanese, you're Orient
Whether life's disabilities
Left you outcast, bullied or teased
Rejoice and love yourself today
'Cause baby, you were born this way

[Chorus]
No matter gay, straight, or bi
Lesbian, transgender life
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born to survive
No matter black, white, or beige
Chola or Orient made
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born to be brave
I'm beautiful in my way
'Cause God makes no mistakes ('Cause God makes no mistakes)
I'm on the right track, baby (Right track, baby)
I was born this way (Born this way)
Don't hide yourself in regret
Just love yourself and you're set (Love yourself and you're set)
I'm on the right track, baby (Right track, baby)
I was born this way, yeah

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, there ain't no other way
Baby, I was born this way
Baby, I was born this way (Born this way)
Ooh, there ain't no other way
Baby, I was born this way
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way

[Outro]
I was born this way, hey (Hey)
I was born this way, hey (I was born this way, hey)
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way, hey (Born this way, hey)
I was born this way, hey (Hey)
I was born this way, hey (I was born this way, hey)
I'm on the right track, baby (Right track, baby)
I was born this way, hey
Same DNA (Hey, hey, hey, hey)
But born this way (Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
Same DNA (Hey, hey, hey, hey)
But born this way (Hey, hey, hey)

“Applause” (Ladle‘s Opus)

Spoiler

[Verse 1]
I stand here waiting for you to bang the gong
To crash the critic saying, "Is it right or is it wrong?"
If only fame had an IV, baby, could I bear
Being away from you? I found the vein, put it in here

[Pre-Chorus]
I live for the applause, applause, applause
I live for the applause-plause, live for the applause-plause
Live for the way that you cheer and scream for me
The applause, applause, applause

[Chorus]
Give me that thing that I love (I'll turn the lights out)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch (Make it real loud)
Give me that thing that I love (I'll turn the lights out)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch (Make it real loud)

[Post-Chorus]
A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E (Make it real loud)
A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch
A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E (Make it real loud)
A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch

[Verse 2]
I've overheard your theory, "Nostalgia's for geeks"
I guess sir, if you say so, some of us just like to read
One second I'm a Koons, then suddenly the Koons is me
Pop culture was in art, now art's in pop culture, in me

[Pre-Chorus]
I live for the applause, applause, applause
I live for the applause-plause, live for the applause-plause
Live for the way that you cheer and scream for me
The applause, applause, applause

[Chorus]
Give me that thing that I love (I'll turn the lights out)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch (Make it real loud)
Give me that thing that I love (I'll turn the lights out)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch (Make it real loud)

[Post-Chorus]
A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E (Make it real loud)
A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch
A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E (Make it real loud)
A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch

[Bridge]
Ooh-woo, touch, touch
Ooh-woo, touch, touch now
Ooh-woo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-woo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-woo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh

[Pre-Chorus]
I live for the applause, applause, applause
I live for the applause-plause, live for the applause-plause
Live for the way that you cheer and scream for me
The applause, applause, applause

[Chorus]
Give me that thing that I love (I'll turn the lights out)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch (Make it real loud)
Give me that thing that I love (I'll turn the lights out)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch (Make it real loud)

[Post-Chorus]
A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E (Make it real loud)
A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch (Make it real loud)
A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E (Make it real loud)
A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch

[Outro]
A-R-T-P-O-P

“Perfect Illusion”

Spoiler

[Intro]
Oh-oh
Oh-oh

[Verse 1]
Tryin' to get control
Pressure's takin' its toll
Stuck in the middle zone
I just want you alone
My guessing game is strong
Way too real to be wrong
Caught up in your show
Yeah, at least now I know

[Chorus]
It wasn't love, it wasn't love
It was a perfect illusion (Perfect illusion)
Mistaken for love, it wasn't love
It was a perfect illusion (Perfect illusion)

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh
You were a perfect illusion

[Verse 2]
I don't need eyes to see
I felt you touchin' me
High like amphetamine
Maybe you're just a dream
That's what it means to crush
Now that I'm wakin' up
I still feel the blow
But at least now I know

[Chorus]
It wasn't love, it wasn't love
It was a perfect illusion (Perfect illusion)
Mistaken for love, it wasn't love
It was a perfect illusion (Perfect illusion)

[Bridge]
Where are you? 'Cause I can't see (It was a perfect illusion)
But I feel you watchin' me
Dilated, fallin' free
In a modern ecstasy
Where are you? 'Cause I can't see (It was a perfect illusion)
But I feel you watchin' me
But I feel you watchin' me (Illusion)
But I feel you watchin' me (Mistaken for love)
Where were you? 'Cause I can't see (Illusion)
But I feel you watchin' me (Mistaken for love)
Dilated, fallin' free
In a modern ecstasy (Mistaken for love)
In a modern ecstasy
In a modern ecstasy
I'm over the show
Yeah, at least now I know

[Chorus]
It wasn't love, it wasn't love
It was a perfect illusion (Perfect illusion)
Mistaken for love, it wasn't love
It was a perfect illusion (Perfect illusion)

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh
You were a perfect illusion
Oh-oh-oh
It was a perfect illusion

[Outro]
It was a perfect illusion
Somewhere in all the confusion
It was a perfect illusion, illusion
Illusion (Where were you? 'Cause I can't see it)
It was a perfect illusion (But I feel you watchin' me, baby)
Somewhere in all the confusion (Dilated, fallin' free)
You were so perfect (In a modern ecstasy)
You were a, you were a perfect illusion

“Stupid Love”

Spoiler

[Verse 1]
You're the one that I've been waiting for
Gotta quit this cryin', nobody's gonna
Heal me if I don't open the door
Kinda hard to believe, gotta have faith in me

[Refrain]
Freak out, freak out, freak out, freak out (Look at me)
Get down, get down, get down, get down (Look at me)
Freak out, freak out, freak out, freak out
Look at me now

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause all I ever wanted was love
Hey yeah, hey yeah (Ooh-ooh)
Hey yeah, hey yeah (Ooh-ooh)
Hey yeah, hey yeah
All I ever wanted was love

Hey yeah, hey yeah (Ooh-ooh)
Hey yeah, hey yeah, hey yeah (Hey yeah, hey yeah)

[Chorus]
I want your stupid love, love
I want your stupid love, love
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

[Verse 2]
Now, it's time to free me from the shame
I gotta find that peace, is it too late or
Could this love protect me from the pain?
I would battle for you (Even if we break in two)

[Refrain]
Freak out, freak out, freak out, freak out (Look at me)
Get down, get down, get down, get down (Look at me)
Freak out, freak out, freak out, freak out
Look at me now

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause all I ever wanted was love
Hey yeah, hey yeah (Ooh-ooh)
Hey yeah, hey yeah (Ooh-ooh)
Hey yeah, hey yeah

I don't need a reason (Oh)
Not sorry, I want your stupid love
I don't need a reason (Oh)
Not sorry, I want your stupid love
Hey yeah, hey yeah

I want your stupid love, love (Oh, oh, woo)
We got a stupid love, love (Love, love, oh)

I want your stupid love, love
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
I want your stupid love, love

“Disease”

Spoiler

[Intro]
(Ah)
(Ah)

[Verse 1]
There are no more tears to cry
I heard you begging for life
Running out of medicine
You're worse than you've ever been

[Pre-Chorus]
(Ah-ah) Screaming for me, baby
(Ah-ah) Like you're gonna die
(Ah-ah) Poison on the inside
I could be your antidote tonight
(Ah-ah) Screaming for me, baby
(Ah-ah) Like you're gonna die
(Ah-ah) Poison on the inside
I could be your antidote tonight

[Chorus]
I could play the doctor, I can cure your disease
If you were a sinner, I could make you believe
Lay you down like one, two, three
Eyes roll back in ecstasy
I can smell your sickness, I can cure your (Cure)
Cure your disease

[Verse 2]
You're so tortured when you sleep
Plagued with all your memories
You reach out, and no one's there
Like a god without a prayer

[Pre-Chorus]
(Ah-ah) Screaming for me, baby
(Ah-ah) Like you're gonna die
(Ah-ah) Poison on the inside
I could be your antidote tonight
(Ah-ah) Screaming for me, baby
(Ah-ah) Like you're gonna die
(Ah-ah) Poison on the inside
I could be your antidote tonight

[Chorus]
I could play the doctor, I can cure your disease
If you were a sinner, I could make you believe
Lay you down like one, two, three
Eyes roll back in ecstasy
I can smell your sickness, I can cure your (Cure)
Cure your disease

[Post-Chorus]
(Ah)
(Ah) Cure your disease
(Ah)
I can smell your sickness, I can cure your—

[Chorus]
Bring me your desire, I can cure your disease
If you were a sinner, I could make you believe
Lay you down like one, two, three
Eyes roll back in ecstasy
I know all your secrets, I can cure your, oh
Cure your disease

[Post-Chorus]
(Ah) Cure your disease
(Ah) Cure your—
(Ah)
I can smell your sickness, I can cure your—
I can cure your disease
(Ah) Cure your disease
(Ah) Cure your disease
(Ah) Ooh
(Ah) Ooh
