Lana Del Rey, new album "Blue Banisters"

The lyrics to Lana Del Rey’s new album Blue Banisters (genius.com)

How many sad songs can one songstress sing? Lana Del Rey aims to find out. Maybe there's something higher to live for than romantic love. But if there is, she doesn't know it. It's fun living in the past. "She's so deep!" he says. Is she? "She's a debutante, a rich East Coast gal who tries to write lyrics ("poems") with depth, and it's not working. It reeks of trying. Just be yourself, Latina goddess. *Wink* Lana (Lizzy Woolridge Grant) is as Latin as nachos grande at the Piggly Wiggly (7/11). Not at all. But a Scottish Catholic with a seductive voice and model good looks can get far in this world, so the affectation works, sort of. Now she's blue as a banister.
