Puppy Love

Lana Del Rey · Other Songs - Lana Del Rey

It's not puppy love

Puppy, puppy, puppy love

It's not puppy love

Puppy, puppy, puppy love



You make me wanna be like one of those girls

From the 1950's wearing those big pearls

I'll cook you breakfast

Coffee on your desk, yes

I might burn your toast

But baby, I'm still the bestest



It's not puppy love

Puppy, puppy, puppy love

It's not puppy love

Puppy, puppy, puppy love



You make me wanna be like one of those girls

On the colored TV, it was a new world

The Dick Van Dyke Show

We're Cher and Bono

The way I sing 'I Got You Babe'

Makes you say "oh no"

Cause you're the class president

Without Jackie O

And I'm singing 'Happy Birthday'

Like Marilyn Monroe



One, this is not a school girl crush, no

Two, this is not puppy love, uh-uh

It's the real thing

When you told me you loved me

Promise I'll never see Arthur or Bobby, baby



One, this is not a school girl thing, no

Two, what about the diamond ring? Uh-uh

Everyone knows I'm like Jessica Rabbit

I'm your leading lady, I gotta have it, baby



It's not puppy love

Puppy, puppy, puppy love

It's not puppy love

Puppy, puppy, puppy love



You make me wanna be like one of those girls

Calendar pin-up queen in platinum curls

I'll do my summer pose

Golden sand between my toes

You can pack my favorite snack

A Veuve Clicquot and Ho Ho's

You're everybody's hero and you're hitting it home

While I'm singing for the soldiers

Like Marilyn Monroe



One, this is not a school girl crush, no

Two, this is not puppy love, uh-uh

It's the real thing

When you told me you loved me

Promise I'll never see Arthur or Bobby, baby



One, this is not a school girl thing, no

Two, what about the diamond ring? Uh-uh

Everyone knows I'm like Jessica Rabbit

I'm your leading lady, I gotta have it, baby

Baby, baby



And if I call you on the telephone

I might overdose

Cause I'm strong but I'm lonely

Like Marilyn Monroe



This is not a school girl crush

This is not puppy love

It's the real thing

When you told me you loved me

What ever happened to hold me and trust me, baby?



One, this is not a school girl crush, no

Two, this is not puppy love, uh-uh

It's the real thing

When you told me you loved me

Promise I'll never see Arthur or Bobby, baby



One, this is not a school girl thing, no

Two, what about the diamond ring? Uh-uh

Everyone knows I'm like Jessica Rabbit

I'm your leading lady, I gotta have it, baby



It's not puppy love

Puppy, puppy, puppy love

It's not puppy love

Puppy, puppy, puppy love



It's not puppy love

Puppy, puppy, puppy love

It's not puppy love

Puppy, puppy, puppy love
