Would you be mine, would you be my baby tonight?
Could be kissing my fruit punch lips in the bright sunshine
'Cause I like you quite a lot, everything you got, don't you know?
It's you that I adore, though I make the boys fall like dominoes
Kiss me in the D-A-R-K dark tonight
D-a-r-k do it my way
Kiss me in the P-A-R-K park tonight
P-a-r-k let them all say
Hey Lolita, hey
Hey Lolita, hey
I know what the boys want, I'm not gonna play
Hey Lolita, hey
Hey Lolita, hey
Whistle all you want but I'm not gonna say
No more skipping rope, skipping heart beats with the boys downtown
Just you and me feeling the heat even when the sun goes down
I could be yours, I could be your baby tonight
Topple you down from your sky forty stories high
Shining like a God, can't believe I caught you and so
Look at what I bought, not a second thought, oh, Romeo
Kiss me in the D-A-R-K dark tonight
D-a-r-k do it my way
Kiss me in the P-A-R-K park tonight
P-a-r-k let them all say
Hey Lolita, hey
Hey Lolita, hey
I know what the boys want, I'm not gonna play
Hey Lolita, hey
Hey Lolita, hey
Whistle all you want but I'm not gonna say
No more skipping rope, skipping heart beats with the boys downtown
Just you and me feeling the heat even when the sun goes down
I want my cake and I want to eat it too
I want to have fun and be in love with you
I know that I'm a mess with my long hair
And my suntan, short dress, bare feet
I don't care what they say about me, what they say about me
Because I know that it's L-O-V-E
You make me happy, you make me happy
And I never listen to anyone
Let them all say
Hey Lolita, hey
Hey Lolita, hey
I know what the boys want, I'm not gonna play
Hey Lolita, hey
Hey Lolita, hey
Whistle all you want but I'm not gonna say
No more skipping rope, skipping heart beats with the boys downtown
Just you and me feeling the heat even when the sun goes down
Could be kissing my fruit punch lips in the bright sunshine
'Cause I like you quite a lot, everything you got, don't you know?
It's you that I adore, though I make the boys fall like dominoes
Kiss me in the D-A-R-K dark tonight
D-a-r-k do it my way
Kiss me in the P-A-R-K park tonight
P-a-r-k let them all say
Hey Lolita, hey
Hey Lolita, hey
I know what the boys want, I'm not gonna play
Hey Lolita, hey
Hey Lolita, hey
Whistle all you want but I'm not gonna say
No more skipping rope, skipping heart beats with the boys downtown
Just you and me feeling the heat even when the sun goes down
I could be yours, I could be your baby tonight
Topple you down from your sky forty stories high
Shining like a God, can't believe I caught you and so
Look at what I bought, not a second thought, oh, Romeo
Kiss me in the D-A-R-K dark tonight
D-a-r-k do it my way
Kiss me in the P-A-R-K park tonight
P-a-r-k let them all say
Hey Lolita, hey
Hey Lolita, hey
I know what the boys want, I'm not gonna play
Hey Lolita, hey
Hey Lolita, hey
Whistle all you want but I'm not gonna say
No more skipping rope, skipping heart beats with the boys downtown

Lana Del Rey's title of the song is "LOLYTA" - she likes to change the spelling of some of her songs, it makes them more personal.
And yes, I know I wrote Del Ray, that's how it's spelt on that album.
-gets flagged and downvoted-
._.
She put it on born to die as 'lolita'.. its a slightly more produced version. i prefer the original. still a catchy song though
Also, isn't it "no more skipping heart beats with the boys downtown" instead of "never was in love, skipping heart beats with the boys downtown? Maybe the album version is different, because I haven't heard earlier demos. But in the album it's "no more".
I gotta go check that book out.
and it sounds the same on both versions, but like I don't rely listen to(anyone)the old version so maybe I'm wrong...
Spelling was as of the prior version, when indeed, it was 'Lana Del Ray.' "Lolyta" was what had been distributed, although, the album version has changed some.
From the past: blahblahblahscience.com/track-reviews/…
As for the song, I think it's about an underage girl who is pretty and the boys her own age show interest in her but she's already taken up by an older man so she ignores those boys. That's my reasoning for the use of the name Lolita and the almost creepy beat of the music.
oh wait... that was the whole book...
Also, Lana did state her songs were autobiographical. She's not actually talking about Lolita, more like she's using Lolita as a rendition of her own life.
