Dressing Up lyrics

Songwriters: PERRY, KATY / STEWART, CHRISTOPHER

 / THIESSEN, MATT / NEUBLE, LAMONT

Saucer of milk, table for 2

You wanna pet my kitty, your such a dirty doggy.

It's your lucky night, cause I'm in the mood, 

I'm feeling spicy, I'm feeling real naughty.

Pick a part, you dream it up.

A dark vixen, a Lolita.

Oh boy, tell me your fantasy, 

Tonight I'm dressing up for you.

I can tell your obsessed, your shortness of breath.

Ooh, my cookie monster wants a taste test.

Be a big boy, and I'll show you the rest

My little voyeur wants to play explorer.

Pick a part, you dream it up.

Like dirty dominatrix.

Oh boy, tell me your fantasy, 

Tonight's the night.

Tonight I'm gonna come alive, 

Make you forget about your 9 to 5, 

Are you ready for your blood to rise?

Tonight's the night I'm dressing up for you.

Saucer of milk, table for 2

You wanna pet my kitty, your such a dirty doggy.

It's your lucky night, cause I'm in the mood, 

I'm feeling spicy, I'm feeling real naughty.

Pick a part, you dream it up.

A dark vixen, a Lolita.

Oh boy, tell me your fantasy, 

Tonight I'm dressing up for you.

I can tell your obsessed, your shortness of breath.

Ooh, my cookie monster wants a taste test.

Be a big boy, and I'll show you the rest

My little voyeur wants to play explorer.

Pick a part, you dream it up.

Like dirty dominatrix.

Oh boy, tell me your fantasy, 

Tonight's the night.

Tonight I'm gonna come alive, 

Make you forget about your 9 to 5, 

Are you ready for your blood to rise?

Tonight's the night I'm dressing up for you.

Tonight I'm gonna come alive, 

Make you forget about your 9 to 5, 

Are you ready for your blood to rise?

Tonight's the night I'm dressing up for you.

Who am I living for?

Who Am I Living For?

/ THOMAS, BRIAN / NEUBLE, LAMONT

Yeah eh yeah yeah

I can feel a phoenix inside of me

As I march alone to a different beat

Slowly swallowing down my fear, yeah yeah

I am ready for the road less traveled

Suiting up for my crowning battle

This test is my own cross to bear

But I will get there

It's never easy to be chosen, never easy to be called

Standing on the front line when the bombs start to fall

I can see the heavens but I still hear the flames

Calling out my name

I can see the writing on the wall

I can't ignore this war

At the end of it all

Who am I living for?

I can feel this light that's inside of me

Growing fast into a bolt of lightning

I know one spark will shock the world, yeah yeah

So I pray for a favor like Esther

I need your strength to handle the pressure

I know there will be sacrifice

But that's the price

It's never easy to be chosen, never easy to be called

Standing on the front line when the bombs start to fall

I can see the heavens but I still hear the flames

Calling out my name

I can see the writing on the wall

I can't ignore this war

At the end of it all

Who am I living for?

I can see the writing on the wall

I can't ignore this war

At the end of it all

Who am I living for?

At the end, at the end

Who am I living for?

At the end, at the end

Who am I living for?

Heavy is the head that wears the crown

Don't let the greatness get you down

Heavy is the head that wears the crown

Don't let the greatness get you down

I can see the writing on the wall

I can't ignore this war

At the end of it all

Who am I living for?

I can see the writing on the wall

I can't ignore this war

At the end of it all

Who am I living for?

At the end, at the end

Who am I living for?

At the end, at the end

Who am I living for?

not like the movies

Not Like The Movies

He put it on me, I put it on,

Like there was nothing wrong.

It didn't fit,

It wasn't right.

Wasn't just the size.

They say you know,

When you know.

I don't know.

I didn't feel

The fairytale feeling, no.

Am I a stupid girl

For even dreaming that I could.

If it's not like the movies,

Thats how it should be, yeah.

When he's the one,

I'll come undone,

And my world will stop spinning

And that's just the beginning, yeah.

Snow white said when I was young,

"One day my prince will come."

So I wait for that date.

They say its hard to meet your match,

Find my better half.

So we make perfect shapes.

If stars don't align,

If it doesn't stop time,

If you cant see the sign,

Wait for it.

One hundred percent,

With every penny spent.

He'll be the one that,

Finishes your sentences.

If it's not like the movies,

Thats how it should be.

When he's the one,

He'll come undone,

And my world will stop spinning,

And thats just the beginning.

'Cause I know you're out there,

And your, your love came for me.

It's a crazy idea that you were made,

Perfectly for me you'll see.

Just like the movies.

That's how it will be.

Cinematic and dramatic with the perfect ending.

It's not like the movies,

But that's how it should be, yeah.

When he's the one,

You'll come undone,

And your world will stop spinning,

And it's just the beginning.

pearl

She is a pyramid

But with him she's just a grain of sand

This love's too strong like my cement

Squeezing out the life that should be let in

She was a hurricane

But now she's just a gust of wind

She used to set the sails of a thousand ships

Was a force to be reckoned with

She could be a Statue of Liberty

She could be a Joan of Arc

But he's scared of the light that's inside of her

So he keeps her in the dark

Oh, she used to be a pearl, oh

Yeah, she used to rule the world, oh

Can't believe, she's become a shell of herself

'Cause she used to be a pearl

She was unstoppable

Move fast just like an avalanche

But now she's stuck deep in cement

Wishing that they never ever met

She could be a Statue of Liberty

She could be a Joan of Arc

But he's scared of the light that's inside of her

So he keeps her in the dark

Oh, she used to be a pearl, oh

Yeah, she used to rule the world, oh

Can't believe, she's become, a shell of herself

'Cause she used to be a

Do you know that there's a way out

There's a way out, there's a way out, there's a way out

You don't have to be held down

Be held down, be held down, be held down

'Cause I used to be a shell

Yeah, I let him rule my world, my world, oh yeah

But I will come and grow strong

And I can still go on, and no one can take my pearl

You don't have to be a shell, no

You're the one that rules your world, oh

You are strong and you'll learn that you can still go on

And you'll always be a, a pearl

She is unstoppable

wide awake

I'm wide awake

I'm wide awake

I'm wide awake

Yeah, I was in the dark

I was falling hard

With an open heart

I'm wide awake

How did I read the stars so wrong

I'm wide awake

And now it's clear to me

That everything you see

Ain't always what it seems

I'm wide awake

Yeah, I was dreaming for so long

[Pre-Chorus]

I wish I knew then

What I know now

Wouldn't dive in

Wouldn't bow down

Gravity hurts

You made it so sweet

Till I woke up on

On the concrete

[Chorus]

Falling from cloud 9

Crashing from the high

I'm letting go tonight

(Yeah I'm) Falling from cloud 9

I'm wide awake

Not losing any sleep

I picked up every piece

And landed on my feet

I'm wide awake

Need nothing to complete myself - nooohooo

I'm wide awake

Yeah, I am born again

[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/wide-awake-lyrics-katy-perry.html ]

Outta the lion's den

I don't have to pretend

And it's too late

The story's over now, the end

[Pre-Chorus]

I wish I knew then

What I know now

Wouldn't dive in

Wouldn't bow down

Gravity hurts

You made it so sweet

Till I woke up on

On the concrete

[Chorus]

Falling from cloud 9

Crashing from the high

I'm letting go tonight (yeah, I'm letting go)

I'm Falling from cloud 9

Thunder rumbling

Castles crumbling

I am trying to hold on

God knows that I tried

Seeing the bright side

But I'm not blind anymore...

I'm wide awake

I'm wide awake

[Chorus]

Yeah, I'm Falling from cloud 9

Crashing from the high

You know I'm letting go tonight

I'm Falling from cloud 9

I'm wide awake

I'm wide awake

I'm wide awake

I'm wide awake

I'm wide awake

firework

Do you ever feel like a plastic bag drifting through the wind

Wanting to start again?

Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin like a house of cards

One blow from caving in?

Do you ever feel already buried deep six feet under scream

But no one seems to hear a thing

Do you know that there's still a chance for you?

'Cause there's a spark in you

You just gotta ignite

The light and let it shine

Just own the night

Like the Fourth of July

Cause, baby, you're a firework

Come on show 'em what you're worth

Make em go oh, oh, oh

As you shoot across the sky

Baby, you're a firework

Come on; let your colors burst

Make em go oh, oh, oh

You're gonna leave em fallin down oh oh

You don't have to feel like a waste of space

You're original you cannot be replaced

If you only knew what the future holds

After a hurricane comes a rainbow

Maybe you're reason why all the doors are closed

So you could open one that leads you to a perfect road

Like a lightning bolt your heart will blow

And when it's time you'll know

You just gotta ignite

The light and let it shine

Just own the night

Like the 4th of July

Cause, baby, you're a firework

Come on show em what you're worth

Make 'em go oh, oh, oh

As you shoot across the sky ey ey

Baby, you're a firework

Come on; let your colors burst

Make 'em go oh, oh, oh

You're gonna leave 'em fallin' down oh oh

Bridge

Boom, boom, boom

Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon

It's always been inside of you, you, you

And now it's time to through, ooh, ooh

Cause, baby, you're a firework

Come on show em what you're worth

Make 'em go oh, oh, oh

As you shoot across the sky ey ey

You're a firework

Come on let your colors burst

Make 'em go oh, oh, oh

You're gonna leave 'em fallin down oh oh

Boom, boom, boom

Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon

Boom, boom, boom

Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon

last friday night

There's a stranger in my bed,

There's a pounding my head

Glitter all over the room

Pink flamingos in the pool

I smell like a minibar

DJ's passed out in the yard

Barbie's on the barbeque

There's a hickie or a bruise

Pictures of last night

Eended up online

I'm screwed

Oh well

It's a black top blur

But I'm pretty sure it ruled

Last Friday night

Yeah we danced on tabletops

And we took too many shots

Think we kissed but I forgot

Last Friday night

Yeah we maxed our credit cards

And got kicked out of the bar

So we hit the boulevard

Last Friday night

We went streaking in the park

Skinny dipping in the dark

Then had a menage a trois

Last Friday night

Yeah I think we broke the law

Always say we're gonna stop-op

Whoa-oh-oah

This Friday night

Do it all again

This Friday night

Do it all again

Trying to connect the dots

Don't know what to tell my boss

Think the city towed my car

Chandelier is on the floor

With my favorite party dress

Warrants out for my arrest

Think I need a ginger ale

That was such an epic fail

Pictures of last night

Ended up online

I'm screwed

Oh well

It's a blacked out blur

But I'm pretty sure it ruled

Damn

Last Friday night

Yeah we danced on table tops

And we took too many shots

Think we kissed but I forgot

Last Friday night

Yeah we maxed our credits card

And got kicked out of the bars

So we hit the boulevards

Last Friday night

We went streaking in the park

Skinny dipping int he dark

Then had a menage a trois

Yeah I think we broke the law

Always say we're gonna stop-op

Oh whoa oh

This Friday night

Do it all again

Do it all again

This Friday night

Do it all again

Do it all again

This Friday night

T.G.I.F.

T.G.I.F.

T.G.I.F.

T.G.I.F.

T.G.I.F.

T.G.I.F.

Last Friday night

Yeah we danced on table tops

And we took too many shots

Think we kissed but I forgot

Last Friday night

Yeah we maxed our credit cards

And got kicked out of the bar

So we hit the boulevard

Last Friday night

We went streaking in the park

Skinny dipping in the dark

Then had a menage a trois

Last Friday night

Yeah I think we broke the law

Always say we're gonna stop

Oh-whoa-oh

This Friday night

Do it all again
