The song was released on June 8, 2014, by Polydor Records and Interscope Records, as the fourth single from Ultraviolence.

They say I'm too young to love you

I don't know what I need

They think I don't understand

The freedom land of the seventies

 

I think I'm too cool to know ya

You say I'm like the ice, I freeze

I'm churnin' out novels like

Beat poetry on Amphetamines

 

I say

I say

 

Well, my boyfriend's in a band

He plays guitar while I sing Lou Reed

I've got feathers in my hair

I get down to Beat poetry

And my jazz collection's rare

I can play most anything

I'm a Brooklyn baby

I'm a Brooklyn baby

 

Ta-da-da-da-da-da-da

Ta-da-da-da-da-da-da

Pa-ta-da-da-da-da

 

They say I'm too young to love you

They say I'm too dumb to see

They judge me like a picture book

By the colors, like they forgot to read

I think we're like fire and water

I think we're like the wind and sea

You're burnin' up, I'm coolin' down

You're up, I'm down

You're blind, I see

 

But I'm free, ooh-ooh

I'm free

 

Well, my boyfriend's in a band

He plays guitar while I sing Lou Reed

I've got feathers in my hair

I get down to Beat poetry

And my jazz collection's rare

I can play most anything

I'm a Brooklyn baby

I'm a Brooklyn baby

 

I'm talking about my generation

Talking about that newer nation

And if you don't like it, you can beat it

Beat it, baby

You never liked the way I said it

If you don't get it, then forget it

'Cause I don't have to fuckin' explain it

 

And my boyfriend's in a band

He plays guitar while I sing Lou Reed

I've got feathers in my hair

I get high on hydroponic weed

And my jazz collection's rare

I get down to Beat poetry

I'm a Brooklyn baby

I'm a Brooklyn baby

 

Pa-da-pa-pa, pa-de-da

Te-de-de, da-da-ah

Ooh-ooh, woah

 

Yeah, my boyfriend's pretty cool

But he's not as cool as me

'Cause I'm a Brooklyn baby

I'm a Brooklyn baby

 

Pa-da-da-da-da-da-da

Da-da-da-da-da, baby

Ah-ta-da-da-da-da

Da-da-da-da, baby

Pa-da-da-da-da-da

Pa-pa-da-pa-da, yeah

Yeah, yeah!

Gli alberi pescano, pescano l'anima di questo mondo

Immergendo le radici e abbracciando l'equatore

Vorrei tu facessi lo stesso con la mano sul mio cuore

Quando mi guardi negli occhi

Vorrei finire nel frullatore

 

Ma dimmi come si può stare bene

Anche quando si è lontani

E non sento la tua voce

Ormai da troppe settimane

Dimmi come si può stare vivi

Anche senza respirare

 

Posso soltanto deglutire, singhiozzare

Cantare nella testa questo motivo che mi fa

Stare come una gatta

Che guarda dalla finestra (in un vaso)

La luna che cade in un lago dipinto di blu

E ci caschi anche tu

 

Nel cielo la notte è romântica

Venere bacia Orione

Senza sapere dove

Senza sapere come

Vorrei tu facessi lo stesso

Chiamandomi col mio nome

L'amore attraversa lo spazio

I chilometri, gli anni luce

 

Ma dimmi come si può stare bene

Anche quando si è lontani

E non sento la tua voce

Ormai da troppe settimane

Dimmi come si può stare vivi

Anche senza respirare

 

Posso soltanto deglutire, singhiozzare

Cantare nella testa questo motivo che mi fa

Stare come una gatta

Che guarda dalla finestra (in un vaso)

La luna che cade in un lago dipinto di blu

E ci caschi anche tu

 

Amore, non è una scusa

Ma giuro, mi sono perso

Non è stata una bella avventura

Però m'è piaciuta lo stesso

C'era la luna in un lago

Che emanava il suo riflesso

E una banda suonava lontano una musica blues

Ci saresti cascata anche tu.

In the car, cruising around with you

And my baby, you know that I got you

Hit the road, I'm taking off with you

Not in a hurry, there's something about you, oh

 

Leave the car at the valet (cash only)

Check me in, pop the champagne (Dom Perignon)

Pour me a glass, she's got good taste (so good)

Take off our clothes by the fire place (sexy, yeah)

 

She looks just like a dream

The prettiest girl I've ever seen

From the cover of a magazine

 

In the car, cruising around with you

And my baby, you know that I got you

Hit the road, I'm taking off with you

Not in a hurry, there's something about you, oh

 

We stayed up all night and slept till noon

It's so nice to wake up next to you

Let's start the day with breakfast in bed

Think I'm gonna love you till I'm dead

I can't wait to buy you things

A brand new diamond ring

This is more than just a fling

 

In the car, cruising around with you

And my baby, you know that I got you

Hit the road, I'm taking off with you

Not in a hurry, there's something about you, oh

 

There's something about you, girl

There's something about you, oh

Something about you

Something about.

Don't ask me 'bout tomorrow

Or tell me about my past

My heart is yours to borrow

Ain't nothing meant to last

 

I ain't lyin'

I don't lie

Without an alibi

 

Don't ask too many questions

You don't want answers to

You don't like my direction

Hell, I won't follow you

 

I ain't lyin'

I don't lie

Without an alibi

 

I told my dyin' daddy

That I had to run away

Looked him in the eyes

Said, "there ain't no other way"

So woman, if I tell you that I love you, be ok

 

'Cause I ain't lyin'

I don't lie

Without an alibi

 

I love you in the morning

And when the day is done

But if you want my freedom

You know I'm bound to run

 

I ain't lyin'

I don't lie

Without an alibi

 

I told my dyin' daddy

That I had to run away

Looked him in the eyes

Said, "there ain't no other way"

So woman, if I tell you that I love you, be ok

 

'Cause I ain't lyin'

I don't lie

Without an alibi.
