Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah,
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.

Finger tips in the shape of a gun,
Raise it up to your heart, pow, done.
Ruby lips, pop, pink bubblegum,
Bye, bye, baby, bye, bye, son.

I'm Lana Del Rey from the U.S. of A.,
Godfather ordered up a hit from the grave.
You know why I'm here so I'm not gonna say,
Fuckin' up your life in every possible way.

'Cause criminals run, yeah,
The criminals run,
Criminals run the world!
Criminals run, yeah,
The criminals run,
Criminals run the world!

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah,
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.

Black bra, red dress, make up on,
I'm the new politician,
It ain't rock, but you done rolled,
Bye, bye, baby, lose I won.

I'm Lana Del Rey from the U.S. of A.,
A figment of your imagination.

And criminals run, yeah,

Oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh.

We're in the future now,
You can't be weak,
Technology and money,
You have to live life deadly.

We're in the future now,
You can't be weak,

You have to live life deadly.

Deadly, deadly, deadly,
D-deadly, d-deadly.
