[Verse 1]
The Chanel, the Dior and the Prada
Take it home, make a fire in the garden
Sundance kids, so godless
One day it’s gonna be not like this
Black sand on all our beaches
Witchcraft, split lip and a bee sting
And what I really wanna know is

[Chorus]
Do I look like a fool?
'Cause I must be a fool
To hold on to precious metals like I do
Do, I do
To hold on to precious metals like I do
I do, do

[Verse 2]
The Chanel, the Dior, and the Prada
Give my best to the ones that are bothered
Take a flight trip to Jakarta
All the kids at the shows make it louder
All of the feelings and all of the tears are going
All of the secrets and all of the schemes that don't go my way
I wish you would come back, didn’t want to run back
Come back, bet you want to come back
And I’ll find you

[Chorus]
Do I look like a fool?
'Cause I must be a fool
To hold on to precious metals like I do (ah)
Do (ah), do (ah), do (ah)
To hold on to precious metals like I do (ah)
Do (ah), do (ah), do (ah)

[Outro]
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah

Lorde

Ella Marija Lani Yelich-O'Connor (b. November 7, 1996), better known by her stage name Lorde, is a pop star hailing from New Zealand. While her earlier music focused on criticizing fame and the “pop star” culture, she grew into it more with her second album while keeping the superb writing she’s known for.

She first became a figure on the international scene with her debut EP The Love Club but didn’t start to blow up until her song “Royals” reached #1 on charts worldwide, including the US. Her use of apt metaphors and allegories at just sixteen made her a revered and intriguing media figure.

Although she was initially written off as a one-hit-wonder, her top-ten second single “Team,” curation of The Hunger Mockingjay soundtrack, and her friendships with other A-listers like Taylor Swift have kept her in the spotlight, as well as general intrigue about new music.
