Listen with my eyes closed.....Paper Gangsta

Friday, March 25, 2011

So ..outside of her outrageous outfits and her surprisingly amazing insightful interview, Lady Gaga has kinda stayed off My personal radar. Partly because she reminds me of Marilyn Manson...as a woman...which somehow is scarier..

Anyways..Pandora threw her into my playlist this morning...Specifically...Paper Gangsta....

My head was down and I was working and listening....but paying attention to the lyrics..

This SONG IS HARD!!!!!

oh my god...its not scary metaphoric trite not my experience lyrics either ...

it Goes:
midnight rush, with a pen in my hand
inkin' lincoln, sand-script with a fan
remembering me, before we began
sometimes I felt so def in the jam
but the ones who loved me, told me to stop
like homegirl can't catch shit if it drop
a superwoman chick, you know that I am
some shit don't fly by me in a man
'cause I do not accept any less
than someone just as real, as fabulous
don't want no paper gangsta
won't sign away my life to
someone whose got the flavor
but don't have no follow through
don't want no paper gangsta
won't sign no monkey papers
I don't do funny business
not interested in fakers
OMG...that hook is amazing.
I love the lack of music in the verses...its a plain piano chord...


Sometimes I feel so Def in the JAM??   WTH??
Is she Eminem's sister? Did she grow up in the Bronx? Does she write her own stuff?

Homegirl can't catch shit if it drop?? 
HUH? WHO IS THIS??? DOES SHE WRITE HER OWN LYRICS?????


Wont sign no Monkey papers.....
Won't sign away my life to someone who's got the flavor
but don't have no follow through....
thats a line Mary J. Blige would say back in the day...before she got happy and all..but thats another story.
got something really shiny to start
want me to sign there on your range rover heart
I've heard it before, yeah, the dinners were nice
'til your diamond words melted into some ice
you should been rapping to the beat of my song
mr. california, paper gangsta raw
I'm looking for love, not an empty page
full of stuff that means nothing but "you've been played


ollo?
its TLC...in spandex...
Where the hell have I been?
and I'm serious I need to know if she writes her own stuff before I begin this GIRL CRUSH

So I guess I Can do Gaga...
I just have to ignore the videos....
and listen with my eyes closed..
