Ivanka Lyrics

1-2-3 go

I'm gonna be the bride for the 100th time
Faded beauty eyes with some worry lines
I'm not gonna crash in the friendly skies
A tall glass of water just to stay alive

(Wanna you wanna you wanna you wanna be the)

A knockout in a sea of faces
She's a walk-on, seen so many places
In a rocket she's filling up the spaces
A reflection, and she's in the news again

Backwards, forwards, A to Z
You look for your future in a cup of tea
You've made the connection and you've seen the light
But you still can't seem to get it right

A knockout in a sea of faces
She's a walk-on, I will sing her praises
and it's our house, we make the rules
It's a reflection, and she's in the news again

Climb, climb Caroline, don't look down
The flying trapeze never hangs with clowns
The basketful of kisses that you pass around
Is like a two car garage in a one horse town

A knockout in a sea of faces
In a rocket, filling up the spaces
and it's our house, we make the rules
It's a reflection
1-2-3 go

Gonna be a bride for the 100th time
Faded beauty eyes with some worry lines
I'm not gonna crash in the friendly skies
Living on the border just to stay alive

A knockout in a sea of faces
In a rocket, seen so many phases
She's a walk-on, filling up the spaces
a reflection, and she makes the rules
'cause she's a knockoff in a sea of face
In the drive-by, we will sing her praises
In the rocket, she will break the rules
It's a reflection, and she's in the news

In the drive-by, all the pretty faces
A knock off, in a sea of faces
A knock off, in a sea of faces
going nowhere, she makes the rules
she's in a movie
and she's not mine
and I want her
and I want her
and I want her
and she's not mine
and I want her
yeh I want her
to be the one

Imperial Teen was formed in San Francisco in 1995 by Roddy Bottum (keyboard player for Faith No More), Lynn Perko, Jone Stebbins and Will Schwartz. A pop aesthetic of crunchy guitar riffs and classic boy/girl harmonies quickly developed, finding all four members switching off on instruments and taking turns behind the mic. The band had barely been playing together for six months when they landed their first record deal (London / Universal) and found themselves in the studio. The result was the amazingly fresh and joyous Seasick, which tickled the fancy of many a critic and music fan alike, with its infectious pop grooves standing out in a musical climate dripping with grunge. After several unforeseen roadblocks (label inertia, recording delays) Imperial Teen went on to release "What Is Not To Love" in 1999, and managed to garner even more praise and adoration worldwide. Their latest album "The Hair The TV The Baby & The Band" was released in 2007 by Merge Records. Read more on Last.fm.
