This Is What Makes Us Girls Lyrics - Lana Del Rey

Remember how we used to party up all night? 

Sneakin' out and looking for a taste of real life 

Drinkin' in the small town firelight 

(Pabst Blue Ribbon on ice) 

Sweet sixteen, and we had arrived 

Walking down the streets as they whistle, "Hi, hi!" 

Stealin' police cars with the senior guys 

Teachers said we'd never make it out alive 

There she was, my new best friend 

High heels in her hand, swayin' in the wind 

While she starts to cry 

Mascara runnin' down her little Bambi eyes 

"Lana, how I hate those guys"

This is what makes us girls 

We all look for heaven and we put our love first 

Somethin' that we'd die for, it's our curse 

Don't cry about it, don't cry about it 

This is what makes us girls 

We don't stick together 'cause we put our love first 

Don't cry about him, don't cry about him 

It's all gonna happen 

And that's where the beginning of the end begun 

Everybody knew that we had too much fun 

We were skippin' school and drinkin' on the job 

With the boss 

Sweet sixteen, and we had arrived 

Baby's table dancin' at the local dive 

Cheering our names in the pink spotlight 

Drinkin' cherry schnapps in the velvet night 

Photos 

Yo, we used to go break into the hotel 

Glimmering, we'd swim 

Running from the cops in our black bikini tops 

Screaming, "Get us while we're hot, get us while we're hot" 

(C'mon, take a shot) 

This is what makes us girls 

We all look for heaven and we put our love first 

Somethin' that we'd die for, it's our curse 

Don't cry about it, don't cry about it 

This is what makes us girls 

We don't stick together 'cause we put our love first 

Don't cry about him, don't cry about him 

It's all gonna happen 

The prettiest in-crowd that you had ever seen 

Ribbons in our hair, and our eyes gleamed mean 

A freshmen generation of degenerate beauty queens 

And you know somethin'? 

They were the only friends I ever had 

We got into trouble and when stuff got bad 

I got sent away, I was waving on the train platform 

Cryin' 'cause I know I'm never coming back 

This is what makes us girls 

We all look for heaven and we put our love first 

Somethin' that we'd die for, it's our curse 

Don't cry about it, don't cry about it 

This is what makes us girls 

We don't stick together 'cause we put our love first 

Don't cry about him, don't cry about him 

It's all gonna happen
