Marry The Night – English Lyrics
Lyrics & Translation
[English]
WHEN I LOOK BACK ON MY LIFE
IT'S NOT THAT I DON'T WANT TO SEE THINGS
EXACTLY AS THEY HAPPENED
IT'S JUST THAT I PREFER TO REMEMBER THEM IN AN ARTISTIC WAY
AND TRUTHFULLY THE LIE OF IT ALL IS MUCH MORE HONEST
BECAUSE I INVENTED IT
CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGY TELLS US ARGUABLY
THAT TRAUMA IS THE ULTIMATE KILLER
MEMORIES ARE NOT RECYCLED LIKE ATOMS AND PARTICLES
AND QUANTUM PHYSICS THEY CAN BE LOST FOREVER
IT'S SORT OF LIKE MY PAST IS AN UNFINISHED PAINTING
AND AS THE ARTIST OF THAT PAINTING
I MUST FILL IN ALL THE UGLY HOLES AND
MAKE IT BEAUTIFUL AGAIN
IT'S NOT THAT I'VE BEEN DISHONEST
IT'S JUST THAT I LOATHE REALITY
FOR EXAMPLE THOSE NURSES
THEY'RE WEARING NEXT SEASON CALVIN KLEIN
AND SO AM I
AND THE SHOES
CUSTOM GIUSEPPE ZANOTTI
I TIPPED THEIR GAUZE CAPS TO THE SIDE LIKE PARISIAN BERETS
BECAUSE I THINK IT'S ROMANTIC AND I ALSO BELIEVE
THAT MINT WILL BE VERY BIG IN FASHION NEXT SPRING
CHECK OUT THIS NURSE ON THE RIGHT
SHE'S GOT A GREAT ASS
BAM
THE TRUTH IS BACK THEN AT THE CLINIC
THEY ONLY WORE THOSE FUNNY HATS
TO KEEP THE BLOOD OUT OF THEIR HAIR
AND THAT GIRL ON THE LEFT
SHE ORDERED GUMMY BEARS AND A KNIFE A COUPLE HOURS AGO
THEY ONLY GAVE HER THE GUMMY BEARS
I WISH THEY'D ONLY GIVEN ME THE GUMMY BEARS
[DOCTOR] MORNING MORPHINE PRINCESS
HOW ARE YOU FEELING?
EVERYTHING WENT REALLY WELL
LOOK AT YOU, I REMEMBER WHEN I DELIVERED YOU
YOU LOOK JUST LIKE YOUR MOTHER
EXCEPT MY MOTHER IS A SAINT
[DOCTOR] OH SWEETY!
TACHYCARDIA HEART RATE IS 120
I'M GONNA MAKE IT
[DOCTOR] NO INTIMACY FOR YOU FOR TWO WEEKS
BLOOD PRESSURE 90 OVER 40
A LITTLE LOW, BUT THEN AGAIN
YOU'VE ALWAYS BEEN ON THE LOW SIDE
I'M GONNA BE A STAR
YOU KNOW WHY?
[DOCTOR] WHY?
BECAUSE I HAVE NOTHING LEFT TO LOSE
[DOCTOR] DO YOU NEED ANYTHING ELSE?
JUS, UN PETIT PEL DE LA MUSIQ
[BO] COULD BE SOMEONE IMPORTANT
HELLO?
HELLO PRESTON
[WHISPERS] MY MANAGER
[BO] PERFECT! I TOLD YOU
BUT I'M AN ARTIST...
WHAT DO YOU MEAN GIVE UP?
YOU MAY SAY I LOST EVERYTHING
BUT I STILL HAD MY BEDAZZLER
AND I HAD A LOT OF PATCHES
SHINY ONES FROM M&J TRIMMINGS
SO I WREAKED HAVOC ON SOME OLD DENIM
AND I DID WHAT ANY GIRL WOULD DO
I DID IT ALL OVER AGAIN
