Laura Jansen – Wicked World

You say you like candy
Well stick with me
I’ve got some sugar up my sleeve
You like money
Place your bets on me
These odds are going crazy

And don’t be afraid of the big bad wolf
He’s just a sheep underneath those teeth
And don’t be afraid of the wicked witch
She ain’t so bad she ain’t no bitch

Ooh ooh it’s a wicked, wicked world
ya-a-a ooh ooh ohh ooh it’s a wicked, wicked world

La-la-la-ladies if you hear me holler
Fellas show us all the dollar
Little Riding Hood is such a flirt
She got Miss Muffet all up in her skirt
And Hansel and Gretel never made it home
They got some cooking to do of their own

Ooh ooh it’s a wicked, wicked world
Ooh ooh it’s a wicked, wicked world

Once I tried to be so good
All sweet and spice like good girls should
But I don’t see why I try
Why do I try
When every time I climb that hill
My Jack is somewhere chasing Jill
Two, one, two, three, four

Ooh ooh it’s a wicked, wicked world
ya-a-a ooh ooh ohh ooh it’s a wicked, wicked world

Oh oh Rapunzel, Rapunzel
let down your golden hair
Giddy up, giddy up on your big white horse
Even if your prince ain’t there
I’d like forever after
Like every princess should
But there’s always another chapter
And the apple sure tastes good

Ooh ooh it’s a wicked, wicked world
ya-a-a ooh ooh ohh ooh it’s a wicked, wicked world
ya-a-a ooh ooh ohh ooh it’s a wicked, wicked world


Laura Jansen lyrics

Laura Jansen – Use Somebody

I’ve been roaming around
Always looking down at all I see
Painted faces fill the places
I can’t reach

You know that I could use somebody
You know that I could use somebody

Someone like you
And all you know and how you speak
Countless lovers under cover of the street

You know that I could use somebody
You know that I could use somebody

Someone like you
Ohh ohh…
Someone like you
Ohh ohh…

Off in the night, while you live it up
I’m off to sleep
Waging wars to shape the poet and the beat
I hope it’s gonna make you notice
I hope it’s gonna make you notice

Someone like me
Ohh ohh…
Someone like me
Ohh ohh…
Jeah…

I’m ready, I’m ready, I’m ready now
I’m ready, I’m ready, I’m ready now

Ohh ohh…
Someone like me
Ohh ohh…

I’ve been roaming around
Always looking down at all I see


Laura Jansen lyrics

Laura Jansen – Queen Of Elba

I cast out all of the blame
Keep your scarred heart
Keep your pain
I am an island of stone again
I go it better alone
I know where I begin, begin, begin…

So crown me the Queen of Elba
(I’m never coming home)
Hand me my sword and armor
(I’m never coming home)
You can crown me the Queen of Elba
(I’m never coming home)
Forever dance alone
I’m never coming home…

Burn down the prison within
It’s not enough now to keep me in
I’m leaving all of the lies
Giving up on the ties
I begin, begin, begin, begin, begin…

So crown me the Queen of Elba
(I’m never coming home)
Hand me my sword and armor
(I’m never coming home)
You can crown me the Queen of Elba
(I’m never coming home)
Forever dance alone
I’m never coming home…
I’m never coming home…
I’m never coming home…

You can crown me the Queen of Elba
(I’m never coming home)
Forever dance alone
I’m never coming home…
I’m never coming home…
I’m never coming home…
I’m never coming home…


Laura Jansen lyrics

Laura Jansen – Same Heart

I spent a long time hiding
Believing that I was alone
Under the surface I was stone
When the walls that I buillt in the end
just knocked me down
I let the earth pull at my bones

Closing the distance im reaching out
It starts with a whisper
Can you hear me now?
All the lies we spoke
And dreams we broke
Underneath it all

Beats the same heart
It’s the same same heart
It’s the same heart

We spent such a long time trying
Rolling the rock up the hill
With just a trail of dust behind
Oh that city we bu’lt is a song
That calls us out
And we will sing it as we climb

Closing the distance im reaching out
It starts with a whisper
But becomes a shout
All the lies we spoke
And dreams we broke
Underneath it all

Beats the same heart
It’s the same same heart
It’s the same heart
Ohohohoh
It’s the same heart

(same same heart)

Underneath it all
Beats the same heart
