[Spoken Intro] On the streets of LA Where the future is now We dance like nobody is watching us And we live like we want to But it can also get a little crazy Unless there's something to hold on to For me, that was true love [Verse 1] I was a young girl, selfish and wild Like a fire in L.A Hot like the summer and mean like a child Who keeps crying 'til she gets her way (Like a true star) [Pre-Chorus 1] There were roses in my hair Rock and roll on blare and I was in trouble No one could rock me like you could I was a bad girl gone good [Chorus] Look at me now, I have everything You gave to me and my heart can sing I was a kid who could only drink Dance on tables, making deals with devils Like a drunk beauty queen Fighting the fantasy, hooked on the scene And it brought me to my knees And it's all because of you (You know what I'm talkin' about) [Verse 2] It was a mad world, we lived for fun And we got shit for free Had a face like an angel but inside my heart Was as black as a broke movie screen (It was pretty sad) [Pre-Chorus 2] But then I saw you standing there Like a millionaire, give me your number Call me before I get stupid Make me uncrazy like you did [Chorus] Look at me now, I have everything You gave to me and my heart can sing I was a kid who could only drink Dance on tables, making deals with devils Like a drunk beauty queen Fighting the fantasy, hooked on the scene But you brought me to my knees And it's all because of you [Bridge] It isn't hard to see you've got a hold on me Give me your money, love me to death Talk like a baby cause I'm so elated He tell me that I ain't seen nothing quite yet I don't wanna lose it I'm in love but I didn't choose it [Pre-Chorus 3] Roses in my hair, dancing in the air Feels like I'm flying Tell me you love me, boy, do it It's just like I thought, I just knew it [Chorus] Look at me now, I have everything You gave to me and my heart can sing I was a kid who could only drink Dance on tables, making deals with devils Like a drunk beauty queen Fighting the fantasy, hooked on the scene You bring me to my knees And it's all because of you Yeah, it's all because of you
