Melawnia--The Official Movie Soundtrack (Remix)

[INTRO] Early mornin. Coal smoke fallin' On ya, the ashes of a dream in a place called east Slovawnia... Young woman on her knees sayin' prayers [HOOK]Melawnia!! [Verse 1] The radio rants alone downstairs, Berlin wall collapsed, whole world seems scared. Tears in your eyes as Mama braids your hair, Tugs so hard Feels like it might tare Yeah, Life ain't fair, But we make do, Never waste the gifts God's given you. [Pre-chorus] Be best, be best, be best, be best Be best, be best, be best, be best [Verse 2] In high School always get Teacher's attention He Intent on special lessons, But you seen through his intentions. Special mentions without raising your hand, You top of the class, Second best to no one, Always catch him staring at your ass! He tryna look down your bra, You just tryna learn Algebra. But your Curves draw Cold equations And Test him to his patience. In his Smoking jacket Reading Classical Lit Ugly girls never feel the prick of shame when he pats his lap to sit And read selections from Moby Dick But you earning straight A's, You're the one the girls hate, split second the bell rings, You make your escape! [Hook] Melawnia!] [Chorus] Be best, be best, be best, be best Be best, be best, be best, be best [Verse] Don't know where Papa went Never came back from the war, all the good men are dead, All that's left are thieves and whores And Every day you get hungrier, Black coffee and stale bread, Every day a new stranger, Wants to take you in his bed When you're walking in the market, And Men call out "How Much?" Mama makes them meet her eyes, Says look but don't touch. She won't let the darkness have you, She guards you like her heart, A Rose growin in a landfill, You was born a work of art. Soup line in the city, You see a magazine, Pretty woman in her makeup, All dressed up like a queen [Bridge] Later in the mirror, you copied what you'd seen... [Hook/ passionate] Melawnia! [Chorus] Be best, be best, be best, be best Be best, be best, be best, be best [Verse] You don't call it leaving when you leave her standing there At the train stop in the city Off to live your dream somewhere old women have no future, You wish it wasn't truth, But She whispered in your ear, I already spent my youth Train ride through Vienna, Tiny room and borrowed heels, Walls Begin to close up on ya, desperation what you feel. English gets better, But the Accent dont fade Walkin' streets of Manhattan, Tryna make enough to stay Every billboard in Times Square Looks a million miles tall, Little girl from Slovawnia, Never felt so small... [Bridge] And when you're at your lowest, You receive this phone call: [Phone call/Skit] [OLDER Male spoken word] Melawnia! Listen, I saw your spread in Russian Gooch Monthly and I thought it was...wow...I thought it was just the most tasteful thing. Anyway, I have a little place called Mar-a-lago. Have you heard of it? Me and a couple of my very close friends will be there to celebrate 9/11. Actually, I got your number from Jeffrey. You know which Jeffrey. Ha ha. I hope to see you there. And if things go well, who knows? I have plenty of women, but I'm looking for a first lady... [Hook] Melawnia! [Chorus] Be best, be best, be best, be best Be best, be best, be best, be best [Verse 5, Intense delivery, angry] I thought you were a good girl I thought you wanted more! But when the bank account is billions, You let your panties hit the floor! All your elegance in shambles! So ashamed of being poor you let a man who eats steak with ketchup treat you like a whore! And afterward he calls Putin, And brags about his score, And both agree to bomb your homeland And they laugh about the war What would your mama say today If she were still alive? Is she looking down from heaven? Do you wear those weird ass hats to hide? [Bridge, soft, proud, contemplative] Hitched your star to golden boy, For his murders you're complicit! Remember your mother's pride! You can save your people with it! Duck the secret service, Grab the nearest heater! Put that burner to his dome And blast like Ford's Theater! [Hook] Melawnia! [OUTRO] Be best, be best, be best, be best We believe in you! The American people believe in you! Be best, be best, be best be best You know what to do! Be best, be best, be best, be best You can be a hero! Blyat! Blyat! BLYAT! [Hook] Melawnia! Don't just graze the earlobe! Blyat! Blyat! BLYAT! Be best, be best, be best, be best Be best, be best, be best, be best [End]
