Sometimes I wake up in my bed
And I don't know where I've been
Heart tells me a trip to cloud nine
Headache says that things just ain't fine

Wake up in the valley of dolls
And walls surrounding me
Blond ambitions they've been offering
Mother's little yellow helpers

Helpers, helpers, helpers

Country club martini crew
Extra olives just won't do
Valium makes your soul get higher
And enables fake gunfire

Queen bees lose to wasps
Ritalin filled debutante
When you don't like what you see
Hiding's easy in a SUV

Schizophrenic
Pathogenic
Psychogenic
Hallucinogenic

Photogenic
I been taking intelligent
Manic depressive
Aggressive

Psycho wards are so possessive
Attention deficit disorder
Hand-held cassette recorder

ADD, yeah
ADD, yeah
SUV, yeah
SUV, yeah
D-D-DA

Ooh, I gotta call my friend
Wait a minute, what I say I gotta do again?
Minute to minute, I feel like I'm in
The movie memento but I don't have a pen

Wait a minute, hey, hey
This the type of beat that make the ghetto girls play
Take a hit of haze, it's in the drain
You wish you seen P, man, you know she couldn't hate

That ghetto P and that ghetto cash
My ghetto eyes on her ghetto ass
You probably wanna know what planet we on
Can't help if I see everything in neon

Schizophrenic
Pathogenic
Psychogenic
Hallucinogenic

Photogenic
I been taking intelligent
Manic depressive
Aggressive

Psycho wards are so possessive
Attention deficit disorder
Hand-held cassette recorder

I know they think that we have lost it
My mom keep telling me that I should stop it
See what I like and I'm gon' cop it
You hit a new height, shit, I'm gon' top it

With the ADD makes a crazy me
And they can't see, that's why they blame me
Tell the women hi, I dip and dive
I skip and fly, I'm a different guy

When I open up my eyes sometimes
I don't know where I've been
Heart tells me a trip to cloud nine
Headache says that things just ain't fine

Driving in the SUV
ADD takes over me
Cruise control, reins full power
So the dolls can play with nose powder

Pull up to another dinner party
Hosted by Malibu Barbie
Pretty in pink
Princesses, candy floss, fresh bushes

Schizophrenic
Pathogenic
Psychogenic
Hallucinogenic

Photogenic
I been taking intelligent
Manic depressive
Aggressive

Psycho wards are so possessive
Attention deficit disorder
Hand-held cassette recorder

Skateboard
Mirwais
ADD, ADD
Ed Banger
SUV, SUV
Busy P

ADD, ADD
Uffie
SUV, SUV
ADD, ADD
SUV, SUV
Uffie

    loooove this song, can't wait for her album. <3 a few corrections? i think it's 'heart tells me a trip to cloud nine/headache says that things just ain't fine' going straight into 'wake up in the valley...'. and then it sounds like 'blonde ambition' instead of 'gone ambition', and i think it's 'offering mother's little helpers', but i don't know what comes in between. instead of 'crowds are turning' it sounds like 'pathogenic'. and 'this the type of beat that make the ghetto girls play' and 'you probably wanna know what planet we on'. and also 'dip and dive' instead of 'dip and die', and 'cruise control, reins full power/so the dolls can play with nose powder'.

    I think this song (not including Pharrell's part, which is great but not part of the main lyrics) is about rich girls/materialism. Lots of references to queen bees, country club martini crew, malibu barbies, blonde ambitions debutantes. These are the rich girls. They "hide out" behind their candy floss and in their SUVs. AKA they hide behind an image, for an easy life "hiding is easy in an SUV ... cruise control". However, they are really in a poor state of mind and get all sorts of diagnoses and drugs prescribed to them .. ritalin, valium, being manic depressive etc. Material things are another "drug" for them, as well as partying hard "nose powder" just because they can. But they are really unhappy, and have no need for any of the drugs or diagnoses of their supposed conditions "my headache says things are not fine ... psychogenic sais quois". Could be bullshit, but I think this interpretation might be right! Uffie always talks about being supposedly ADD, and she could be poking fun at the tendency for rich americans to diagnose their kids with ADD when they are really just little brats.

    i think it's 'their party hosted by malibu barbie'. which is like, super similar, but seems to flow a little better? but i agree about 'candyfloss' - i just wasn't sure because that's the british word for cotton candy, lol. also, 'offering mother's little YELLOW helpers'. took me ages to realise that's what the extra word was! but that makes sense. and it might be 'blonde ambitions, they've been offering' but i still hear something like 'apron' so i don't know.
