Lyrics

But ev ’ry bod y’s like Cris tal, May bach, dia monds on your time piece, jet planes, is lands, ti gers on a gold leash; we don’t care,

we aren’t caught up in your love af fair.

And we’ll nev er be ro yals, roy als.

It don’t run in our blood;

that kind of luxe just ain’t for us,

we crave a dif f’rent kind of buzz.

Let me be your ru ler, ru ler.

You can call me queen bee, and, ba by, I’ll rule, I’ll rule, I’ll rule, I’ll rule.

Let me live that fan tas y.
