"Put Me In A Movie" - No Kung Fu - Lana Del Rey
Lizzie Grant/Lana Del Rey - Put Me In A Movie (Demo)
No Kung Fu is a 6-song demo recorded in 2007 by Lizzie Grant (who would later reinvent herself as Lana Del Rey); although there is some instrument accompaniment in a couple of the tracks, the majority of the demo is just her and a guitar. Apparently this is the demo that David Khane heard and subsequently decided to work with her, eventually producing her first EP Kill Kill (2010)and her first album Lana Del Ray AKA Lizzie Grant (2011).

Hope we’re on the same wavelength
Hope you don’t think that I’m crazy
Beaches and oceans for my baby
Hurry up and come and save me
I can’t quite hear what you’re saying
Because my body started shaking
Beaches and oceans, earth is quaking
That’s my heart that you were breaking
*gimme some captain underpants and i’m chillin
Ladies and Gentlemen! Cesare knows all secrets. Ask him to look into your future.

“I don’t want to be infantilized because I refuse to be sexualised. I don’t want to be molested at shows or on the street by people who perceive me as an object that exists for their personal satisfaction. I don’t want to live in a world where I’m gonna have to start employing body guards because this kind of behavior is so commonplace and accepted”
“I’m tired of men who aren’t professional or even accomplished musicians continually offering to ‘help me out’ (without being asked), as if I did this by accident and I’m gonna flounder without them. Or as if the fact that I’m a woman makes me incapable of using technology. I have never seen this kind of thing happen to any of my male peers.”
“I’m tired of being considered vapid for liking pop music or caring about fashion as if these things inherently lack substance or as if the things I enjoy somehow make me a lesser person”
This remains the coolest shit. I love her so much.

Before the moment we met we were chatting on the internet
Getting kinda close through the posts that we were looking at
I was pretty confident, and you were pretty into that
I linked you to my music just to see if you’d be into it
So fuck the prologue, read the Internet blogs
Gonna love this star and it came from the clubs
I wasn’t looking for a fuck, I was looking for a bad boy
Bad boy, motherfucker, DESTROY
