Diet mountain dew lyrics10/31/2023 But what is it about soda that makes Lana Del Rey grab a pen and paper? Are her favorite sodas worth singing about? The song also continues Del Rey’s history of referencing fizzy pop drinks, beginning with her first official Lana Del Rey album, Born to Die. She’s named three songs after carbonated drinks: “Cola,” “Diet Mountain Dew,” and her latest single, “ A&W.” The second single off of Del Rey’s upcoming album, Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd, fits the theme of the album title, as it is one of her longest songs to date.

She loves him because he gives her a rush-the roller coaster, the speed, the high-and he will teach her "just what fast is," which is the feeling we know from her interviews she craves: feeling alive, young, wild, and free.Photo-Illustration: Vulture. They will take Jesus off the dashboard, even, so that truly no one can judge them. She doesn't care what people think/say of her or "what the past says". "Turn me to ashes" also shows she knows he's bad for her. She knows he is no good for her, but she wants him anyway. I think this relates with the unhealthy relationship she has with a man-the one in which Lana ignores the bad, maybe even embraces it, because she loves him so much. That's why she loves the men that mostof us find terrible! She keeps asking "Do you think we'll be in love forever?", which to me is the first time on the album she shares the same doubts we as the listeners may have for their relationship (though, she surely is positive of her feelings/love for him)įirst of all, people always say that diet sodas are "healthy" or better for them, when in reality they are just as bad with added artificial sugars and such. She loves him because he gives her a rush-the roller coaster, the speed, the high-and he will teach her "just what fast is," which is the feeling we know from her interviews she craves: feeling alive, young, wild, and free. It looks good, even though it's terrible for her, just like Diet Mountain Dew.įirst of all, people always say that diet sodas are "healthy" or better for them, when in reality they are just as bad with added artificial sugars and such. Overall, I think the song is about a sexual realationship thats clearly unhealthy for her because she knows this is going no where, but she doesn't care. She's talking about how this is an unhealthy realtionship, but she likes it. She knows what they're there for, which most likely is sex. She's talking about throwing her morals out the window and not caring about what other people think. The second part might be talking about how she's not that experienced, whether it be sex or something else. By turing her to ashes, he's using her and he's lying to her to get what he wants, perhaps, or vice-versa. She's not going to "listen to what the past says" perhaps because he's treated her poorly or he has a bad boy reputation. By telling him to put on "heart-shaped sunglasses" I think she's asking him to at least pretend to be in-love with her, even though they're not. She also questions their love for one another, doubting it. She also says "Never was there ever a girl so pretty" She could be talking about New York itself or the Statue of Liberty or it could be talking about herself. She compares this guy to Diet Mountain Dew, because on the surface he looks good for her, but in reality, he's actually terrible for her just like the beverage itself. Obviously this guy is no good for her, but she wants him. I serverly doubt it's that literal though. It could literally be about Lana riding around with a guy in New York city, wearing heart-shaped sunglasses and drinking Diet Mountain Dew. There's so many things this song could mean. Says he's gonna teach me just what fast isīut, baby, I want you, I want you, I want youĭiet Mountain Dew, baby, New York City (you're no good for me)Ĭan we hit it now low down and gritty (baby, you're no good for me)ĭo you think we'll be in love forever? (You're no good for me, but, baby)ĭo you think we'll be in love? (I want you, I want) I'm not gonna listen to what the past says
