Chemtrails Over the Country Club
Lana Del Rey Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm on the run with you, my sweet love
There's nothing wrong contemplating God
Under the chemtrails over the country club
Wearing our jewels in the swimming pool
Me and my sister just playing it cool
Under the chemtrails over the country club

Take out your turquoise and all of your jewels
Go to the market, the kids' swimming pools
Baby, what's your sign?
My moon's in Leo, my Cancer is sun
You won't play, you're no fun
Well, I don't care what they think
Drag racing my little red sports car
I'm not unhinged or unhappy, I'm just wild

I'm on the run with you, my sweet love
There's nothing wrong contemplating God
Under the chemtrails over the country club
Wearing our jewels in the swimming pool
Me and my sister just playing it cool
Under the chemtrails over the country club

Meet you for coffee at the elementary schools
We laugh about nothing as the summer gets cool
It's beautiful how this deep normality settles down over me
I'm not bored or unhappy, I'm still so strange and wild

You're in the wind, I'm in the water
Nobody's son, nobody's daughter
Watching the chemtrails over the country club
Suburbia, The Brentwood Market
What to do next? Maybe we'll love it
White picket chemtrails over the country club

My love, my love

Washing my hair, doing the laundry
Late-night TV, I want you only
Like when we were kids under chemtrails and country clubs
It's never too late, baby, so don't give up
It's never too late, baby, so don't give up
Under the chemtrails over the country club, yeah (you're born in December and I'm born in June)
You're born in December and I'm born in June (under the chemtrails over the country club, yeah)

My Cancer is sun and my Leo is moon
My Cancer is sun and my Leo is moon

Overall Meaning

In "Chemtrails Over the Country Club," Lana Del Rey explores themes of escape and nostalgia. The song opens with a declaration of her love for someone, as they run away together, possibly leaving behind their mundane lives. She sings about contemplating God, implying a search for meaning and purpose in their newfound freedom. This is juxtaposed with the mention of chemtrails, a conspiracy theory that suggests the lines of cloud-like trails left behind by planes are actually harmful chemicals being sprayed into the air. This alludes to the idea of a darker underbelly to life, even in moments of beauty and freedom.


The second verse adds an element of playfulness to the song as Del Rey and her friend/sister (it's unclear) lounge around a swimming pool, wearing jewels and enjoying a carefree summer day. They exchange astrology signs, highlighting their differences but also the bond they share. The mention of drag racing adds a sense of recklessness and danger, and perhaps hints at their desire to live on the edge. The chorus repeats the themes of escape and contemplation, reminding listeners that they're under the chemtrails over the country club, which could represent a utopia or a dystopia, depending on one's perspective.


Del Rey's lyrics continue to emphasize the joys of a simpler, more innocent time, with references to meeting up for coffee at an elementary school and laughing about nothing. Yet, at the same time, she acknowledges her uniqueness and "strangeness." She's neither unhinged nor unhappy but still wild, reveling in the freedom to be her authentic self. The song's closing lines suggest that it's never too late to chase one's dreams and to find love, no matter how unconventional or unexpected the path might be.
