International Smile Lyrics
Flowers in her hair, she don't care
Peach pink lips, yeah, everybody stares
You think you've seen her in a magazine
It's like she walked right out of your dreams
Black ray-bans, you know she's with the band
Passport stamps, she's cosmopolitan
Yeah, she runs a place at Penny Lane
Yeah you lucky if you're on her plane
From Tokyo, to Mexico, to Rio
That girl's a trip, a one way ticket
Takes you miles high, so high, 'cause shes got that one international smile
Catch her if you can
Yeah, she's so in demand
Takes you miles high, so high, 'cause shes got that one international smile
She's got that, je ne sais quoi, you know it
So tres chic, yeah, she's a classic
But she's footloose and so fancy free
Yeah she dances to her own beat
'Cause she's the muse and the artist
Always leaves a trail of stardust
'Cause she's a little bit of Yoko, and she's a little bit of "oh no"
From LA, Miami, to New York City
That girl's a trip, a one way ticket
Takes you miles high, so high, 'cause shes got that one international smile
Catch her if you can
Yeah, she's so in demand
Takes you miles high, so high, 'cause shes got that one international smile
Please fasten your seatbelts, and make sure your champagne glasses are empty
We are now approaching the runway, so get ready for take off
That girl's a trip, a one way ticket
Takes you miles high, so high, 'cause shes got that one international smile
Catch her if you can
Yeah, she's so in demand
Takes you miles high, so high, 'cause shes got that one international smile
Peach pink lips, yeah, everybody stares
You think you've seen her in a magazine
It's like she walked right out of your dreams
Passport stamps, she's cosmopolitan
Yeah, she runs a place at Penny Lane
Yeah you lucky if you're on her plane
Takes you miles high, so high, 'cause shes got that one international smile
Catch her if you can
Yeah, she's so in demand
Takes you miles high, so high, 'cause shes got that one international smile
So tres chic, yeah, she's a classic
But she's footloose and so fancy free
Yeah she dances to her own beat
'Cause she's the muse and the artist
Always leaves a trail of stardust
'Cause she's a little bit of Yoko, and she's a little bit of "oh no"
Takes you miles high, so high, 'cause shes got that one international smile
Catch her if you can
Yeah, she's so in demand
Takes you miles high, so high, 'cause shes got that one international smile
We are now approaching the runway, so get ready for take off
Takes you miles high, so high, 'cause shes got that one international smile
Catch her if you can
Yeah, she's so in demand
Takes you miles high, so high, 'cause shes got that one international smile

I read somewhere that in the lyrics sleeve of 'Prism', Katy dedicates this song to her friend Mia Moretti, who is a DJ. So I'd say that this song is about her. That would be pretty cool, knowing your friend wrote an entire song about you! The "flowers in her hair" part seems literal. I was just browsing photos of Mia and looks like she DOES wear flowers in her hair! :)
I love the ... is it the bass guitar?! I don't know... the guitar in the song, it's really awesome. This song is so catchy, probably my favourite from the album.
You solved it I think!
You solved it I think!
I love the references to Almost Famous in this song!
