Lana Del Rey – The Next Best American Record (testo)

“My baby used to dance underneath my architecture
To the Houses of the Holy, smokin’ on them cigarettes
My baby used to dance underneath my architecture
He was cool as heck
He was cool as heck

And we were so obsessed with writing
the next best American record
That we give all we had ‘til the time we got to bed
‘Cause we knew we could
We were so obsessed with writing
the next best American record
‘Cause we were just that good
It was just that good

Whatever’s on tonight, I just wanna party with you
Topanga’s hot tonight, I’m taking off my bathing suit
You made me feel like there’s something that I never knew
I wanted

My baby used to dance underneath my architecture
He was ’70s in spirit, ’90s in his frame of mind
My baby used to dance underneath my architecture
We lost track of space
We lost track of time

And we were so obsessed with writing
the next best American record
That we give all we had ‘til the time we got to bed
‘Cause we knew we could
We were so obsessed with writing
the next best American record
‘Cause we were just that good
It was just that good

Whatever’s on tonight, I just wanna party with you
Topanga’s hot tonight, I’m taking off my bathing suit
You made me feel like there’s something that I never knew
I wanted
We play the Eagles down in Malibu and I want it

It’s you, all the roads lead to you
Everything I want and do, all the things that I say
It’s true, all the roads lead to you
Like the 405 I drive through
Every night and every day
I see you for who you really are
Why the thousands of girls love
The way Bill plays guitar

Whatever’s on tonight, I just wanna party with you
Topanga’s hot tonight, I’m taking off my bathing suit
You made me feel like there’s something that I never knew
I wanted
We play the Eagles down in Malibu and I want it
There’s something that I never knew I wanted”.
