Starstrukk (3OH!3 & Katy Perry cover) Lyrics

Nice legs, Daisy Dukes, makes a man go ooh, ooh
That's the way they all come through like ooh, ooh
Low-cut, see-through shirts that make ya ooh, ooh
That's the way she come through like, ooh

'Cause I just set them up
Just set them up
Just set them up to knock them down
'Cause I just set them up
Just set them up
Just set them up to knock them down

I think I should know
How
To make love to something innocent without leaving my fingerprints out
Now
L-O-V-E's just another word I never learned to pronounce
How
Do I say I'm sorry 'cause the word is never gonna come out
Now
L-O-V-E's just another word I never learned to pronounce

Tight jeans, double Ds makin' me go ooh, ooh
All the people on the street know ooh, ooh
Iced out, lit-up, make the kids go ooh, ooh
All the people on the street know ooh, ooh

'Cause I just set them up
Just set them up
Just set them up to knock them down
'Cause I just set them up
Just set them up
Just set them up to knock them down

I think I should know
How
To make love to something innocent without leaving my fingerprints out
Now
L-O-V-E's just another word I never learned to pronounce
How
Do I say I'm sorry 'cause the word is never gonna come out
Now
L-O-V-E's just another word I never learned to pronounce

You know that type of shit just don't work on me
Whistlin', trying to flirt with me
Don't take it personally
'Cause we were never in love
It doesn't really matter who you say you are
Singing out the window of your car
When another girl across bar
'Cause L-O-V-E's not with this was

I think I should know how
To make love to something innocent without leaving my fingerprints out
Now
L-O-V-E's just another word I never learned to pronounce
How
Do I say I'm sorry 'cause the word is never gonna come out
Now (woah-oh)
L-O-V-E's just another word I never learned to pronounce

Better than the original.

My Opinion
Cover art for Starstrukk (3OH!3 & Katy Perry cover) lyrics by Marina and the Diamonds

I think that she means that she really does not know what love is, and that she thinks it's only sex. when she says "L-O-V-E is just another word I never learned to pronounce" she never learned what love really is about. I get the feeling that she thinks sex is not really love.

My Interpretation

It's amazing how Marina can create such heartbreaking songs out of such shallow and annoying (in my opinion) lyrics. I love her covers, she does unexpectedly realistic things out of the most stupid pop songs (like with Boyfriend by Justin Bieber.)

It's also pretty astonishing how sad and empty a song can be when delivered differently.
