Monroe Redux Lyrics by VI Seconds

2014

[Intro]
Shizzy: 1, 2, right
(what's so good about Marilyn, Marilyn, Mon-roe-roe, Monroe)
Shizzy: I'm saying, it's been on my mind for a bit
(so what's so good about Marilyn, Marilyn, Mon-roe-roe, Mon-roe-roe-roe-roe)
I'm just wonderin'
(so what's so good about Marilyn, Marilyn..
Shizzy: I see her face so much I figured, I might as well find out
.. Mon-roe-roe, Mon-roe-roe-roe-roe)
Look, Look
[1st verse]
It's a question that's been on my mind for some time now
So I gave the rap game a timeout
Just to find out, and get this summed up
What is the reason that all of you love her?
Pictures on your Twitters and Tumblrs
Are the reason why I sit here and wonder
Why y'all idolize her, and some of y'all try to
Put what makes you you on a shelf
Just to be her, rather than true to yourself
Belitting the lifestyle, that you was just livin' with
For the sake of woman of whom you ain't experience
A damn thing
Is your life so boring
Or is it cause you think she's gorgeous?
Is it cause you see her with purity
Do you use her to hide your insucurities?
Riddle me this, riddle me this
What is 'bout this woman that you can't resist?
Her blond hair? The Crimson lips?
Could you really take a minute and create a list
Take a second be honest
Is it 'bout the looks or her action, see
Is it for her person, or cause she made it on magazines
[Hook]
All these girls wanna be
Marilyn, Marilyn, Marilyn
Monroe-roe-roe, Monroe
What's so good about Marilyn? Marilyn
Mon-roe-roe, Monroe
It's nothing agaisnt Marilyn, Marilyn, Marilyn
Mon-roe-roe, Monroe
Why do you idolize Marilyn, Marylin
Mon-roe-roe, Mon-roe-roe-roe-roe
[2nd verse]
Ladies
Take a second ask yourself
If you know her past does
Marilyn embody class, or was she a body everybody smashed, see?
That's your idol and the fact that you don't know more
You don't know if she earned her spot, or got there being a whore
Some percieve her as sweet, others believe she's a cunt
Some claim she had morals, others say she was a slut
But what?
Denie the accusations
Say they're wrong and that you hate it
Slay the part of you're playin'
Aim at hearts of dogs that say it
Save it, you're just goin' off her looks
But don't realize how aweful you look
Structuring yourself by the life of another
Yet her footprints in life isn't something you wonder
Under the spell of her smile and fame
But never took the time to understand the dame, shame
The lamest lame, you choose the swerve
Chose the curse, now you don't know your worth
[Hook]
All these girls wanna be
Marilyn, Marilyn, Marilyn
Monroe-roe-roe, Monroe
What's so good about Marilyn? Marilyn
Mon-roe-roe, Monroe
It's nothing agaisnt Marilyn, Marilyn, Marilyn
Mon-roe-roe, Monroe
Why do you idolize Marilyn, Marylin
Mon-roe-roe, Mon-roe-roe-roe-roe
[3rd verse]
Look
Would you kill to be just like her?
Take a life to dress just like her?
Trade your life so it's just like hers?
Mold your mind so it's just like her?
Be a symbol of sex just like her?
Maybe have some regrets just like her?
Maybe do a few things you wouldn't usually do
To get a cover of two, just like her, would you?
Remove your true selves existence
To model wearing her lipstick
Would you throw yourself away
To be her just for a day?
Is it worth at all
To take that small climb for a larger fall?
To be look a diff
Not cause you changed, but because your true self
Didn't matter at all?
[Outro]
I don't think so, I don't think so a bit
Don't be so quick to sell yourself out
Cause someone's buying in
You can't trust em all
Some of these niggers [?]
Aroused by your skin
Milking you dry, to try to win
That's Marilyn
