Primadonna
(HD) Marina and the Diamonds Lyrics

Primadonna girl, yeah
I see myself as the star of the show, the leading lady.

All I ever wanted was the world
I have big dreams and ambitions, and I want to achieve everything I desire.

I can't help but I need it all
I have an insatiable appetite for fame, success, and material possessions. I want everything that life has to offer.

The primadonna life, the rise and fall
I know that being a superstar is not easy, but I still want to live the glamorous lifestyle that comes with fame, even if it leads to my downfall.

You say that I'm kinda difficult
People might perceive me as hard to handle or demanding.

But it's always someone else's fault
I don't want to take responsibility for my actions, and I often blame others for my mistakes or shortcomings.

Got you wrapped around my finger, babe
I have a way of charming people and getting them to do what I want, even if it's not always the best thing for them.

You can count on me to misbehave
I am not afraid to break the rules or cause a scene to get what I want.

Would you do anything for me?
I expect people to cater to my every whim and desire, no matter the cost or inconvenience.

Buy a big diamond ring for me?
I want extravagant gifts and displays of affection from others to prove their love and loyalty to me.

Would you get down on your knees for me?
I demand complete subservience and obedience from those around me, and I like to feel powerful and in control.

Pop the pretty question right now, baby
I expect people to propose to me and shower me with affection and attention, just like in a fairy tale.

Beauty queen on a silver screen
I see myself as a gorgeous, glamorous movie star who commands attention and adoration from all who see me.

Living life like I'm in a dream
I want to live in a fantasy world where everything is perfect and goes my way, without any problems or obstacles.

I know I've got a big ego
I am aware that I have a hugely inflated sense of self-worth and importance, and I believe that I am better than others.

I really don't know why it's such a big deal, though
I don't understand why people are so bothered by my ego, because I think it's completely justified and normal for someone as talented and amazing as myself.

And I'm sad to the core, core, core
Even though I have everything I could want, I still feel empty inside and crave more attention and validation from others.

Every day is a chore, chore, chore
I get bored easily and need constant stimulation and excitement to keep me interested.

When you feel of a whole more more
No matter how much I get or achieve, I still feel like something is missing and I want even more.

I wanna be adored
I crave admiration, attention, and love from others, and I want the world to revolve around me.

Primadonna girl fill the void, up with Celluloid
I use movies and media to distract myself from my problems and fill the emptiness inside me with superficial entertainment and distractions.

Take a picture, I'm with the boys
I enjoy hanging out with men and being seen as desirable and attractive to them, even if it means ignoring other women or putting them down.

Get what I want 'cause I ask for it
I am used to getting my way and having people do what I say, simply because I demand it and expect it.

Not because I'm really that deserving of it
I know that I don't always earn or merit the things I ask for, but I still believe that I should be given them anyway because of my status and ego.

Going up, going down, down, down
My life is full of ups and downs, and I can never predict what will happen next, but I still love the thrill of the ride.

Anything for the crown, crown, crown
I am willing to do whatever it takes to maintain my status and position as queen of the world, even if it means stepping on others or going against my values.

With the lights dimming down, down, down I spin around
Even as my fame and fortune fades, I still try to cling onto the spotlight and the attention of others, spinning around to keep the illusion alive.
