Lana Del Rey - National Anthem (Lyrics)

Money is the anthem of success
So before we go out, what's your address?

I'm your national anthem, God, you're so handsome
Take me to the Hamptons, Bugatti Veyron
He loves to romance 'em, reckless abandon
Holding me for ransom, upper echelon
He says to be cool, but I don't know how yet
Wind in my hair, hand on the back of my neck
I said, "Can we party later on?", he said, "Yes, yes, yes…"

Tell me I'm your national anthem
(Booyah, baby, bow down, making me so wow now)
Tell me I'm your national anthem
(Sugar sugar, how now, take your body downtown)
Red, white, blue is in the sky
Summer's in the air and, baby, heaven's in your eyes
I'm your national anthem

Money is the reason we exist
Everybody knows it, it's a fact
Kiss, kiss

I sing the national anthem
While I'm standing over your body, hold you like a python
And you can't keep your hands off me or your pants on
See what you've done to me, King of Chevron?
He said to be cool, but I'm already coolest
I said to get real, don't you know who you're dealing with?
Um, do you think you'll buy me lots of diamonds?
("Yes, of course I will, my darling")

Tell me I'm your national anthem
(Booyah, baby, bow down, making me so wow now)
Tell me I'm your national anthem
(Sugar sugar, how now, take your body downtown)
Red, white, blue is in the sky
Summer's in the air and, baby, heaven's in your eyes
I'm your national anthem

It's a love story for the new age, for the sixth page
We're on a quick, sick rampage
Wining and dining, drinking and driving
Excessive buying, overdose and dying
On our drugs, and our love, and our dreams, and our rage
Blurring the lines between real and the fake
Dark and lonely, I need somebody to hold me
He will do very well, I can tell, I can tell
Keep me safe in his belltower hotel

Money is the anthem of success
So put on mascara and your party dress

I'm your national anthem
Boy, put your hands up, give me a standing ovation
Boy, you have landed
Babe, in the land of sweetness and danger, Queen of Saigon

Tell me I'm your national anthem
(Booyah, baby, bow down, making me so wow now)
Tell me I'm your national anthem
(Sugar sugar, how now, take your body downtown)
Red, white, blue is in the sky
Summer's in the air and, baby, heaven's in your eyes
I'm your national anthem

Money is the anthem
God, you're so handsome
Money is the anthem of success
Money is the anthem
God, you're so handsome
Money is the anthem of success
Money is the anthem
God, you're so handsome
Money is the anthem of success
Money is the anthem
God, you're so handsome
Money is the anthem of success

  • @herozayn9133
    I love that she did both of the mistress and the wife
  • @Wtftoveis
    I can't believe that they let Lana Del Rey write the national anthem, we stan a legend
  • @violetfast
    she deserves a grammy for this song and this video, an actual icon and legend. Love her
  • @heythere2285
    she’s serving priscilla presley, marilyn monroe and jackie in 7mins
  • @kamrynkoble4271
    I think it's interesting that Lana portrayed herself as the mistress (Marilyn) and the wife (Jackie) in one video, sort of the two personas that she plays out throughout her music. The other woman, the forbidden lover, the lost soul, and also the devoted woman, the eternal one.

  • @rachel.7598
    When you search "national anthem", this is above the actual national anthem.
  • @Jocelyn_Jade
    God I miss this era. Absolutely nothing beats early 2010s for many of us. We were young and free!
  • @alishaz2062
    It's been 11 years and this is still one of my favourite songs ever
  • @ogeleazar
    Remember when Lana gave birth to America? What an icon.
  • @xrrgr
    the kids in the music video are probably finishing high school now lol
