Pierces, The - Turn On Billie Lyrics






When I woke up this afternoon
I knew I felt uneasy.
But no matter what I'd do
nothing seemed to please me.
I couldn't get out of my head
that little fight we had last night.
Though I would much rather be dead
than admit to myself
that you were right.
Oh, oh, oh, oh

[chorus]
Don't be silly,
turn on Billie.
She's singing us to sleep
so we can dream our lives away.
And if we wake up in full makeup,
we'll paint the town blue
'cause baby, red is so passe.

Now don't look at me that way.
You know I just can't take it.
And no matter what they say
I know that we will make it.
Cause when we are good, we're grand
but when we're bad we are very bad.
But I stick around 'cause the love
that you're giving me is the best
I've ever had.
Oh, oh, oh, oh

[repeat chorus]

And it's funny to me,
the way that things have worked out.
There's no doubt (in my mind)
that you can't recall
what this all was about.
So let's give it up.

Love me sweetly and completely
Come and sit beside me
'cause you know I need you near.
When you're wheelin'
with that feelin'
we'll paint the town pink
'cause baby, red is so last year.

[repeat chorus]

[scatting until the end of the song]

  1. G.... K....

    they foretold the coming of Billie eilish here

  2. �.... �....

    Здесь есть сентябрь 2019?!😨😂

  3. L.... L....

    Quando eu acordei essa manhã
    Eu sei, eu me senti estranha
    Mas não importa o que eu faça
    Nada parece me agradar
    Eu não consegui tirar da minha cabeça
    aquela pequena briga que tivemos noite passada
    Mas eu preferiria estar morta
    Do que admitir que você estava certo

    Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh...

    Não seja bobo
    Se liga Billie
    Ela está cantando para nós dormirmos
    Pra gente poder sonhar com nossas vidas
    E se nos acordarmos
    Com maquiagem completa
    Nós pintaremos a cidade de azul
    Porque baby, vermelho é tão fora de moda

    Agora não me olhe desse jeito
    Você sabe que eu não aguento
    E não importa o que os outros dizem
    Eu sei que nós iremos fazer
    Porque quando nós somos bons, somos ótimos
    Mas quando somos maus, somos Muito maus (muito)
    Mas isso tem que mudar
    Porque o amor que você me dá é o melhor
    que eu já tive..

    Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh...

    Não seja bobo
    Se liga Billie
    Ela está cantando para nós dormirmos
    Pra gente poder sonhar com nossas vidas
    E se acordarmos
    Com maquiagem completa
    Nós pintaremos a cidade de azul
    Porque baby, vermelho é tão fora de moda

    E é engraçado pra mim
    O jeito que as coisas funcionam
    Não há dúvida na minha cabeça
    Que você não entenderá do que se trata essa canção
    Então vamos desistir...

    Me ame suavemente e completamente
    Venha e sente do meu lado
    Porque você sabe que eu preciso de você por perto
    Quando você empolga com esse sentimento
    Nós pintaremos a cidade de rosa porque vermelho é tão "ano passado"

    Não seja bobo
    Se liga Billie
    Ela está cantando para nós dormirmos
    Pra gente poder sonhar com nossas vidas
    E se acordarmos
    Com a maquiagem completa
    Nós pintaremos a cidade de azul
    Porque baby, vermelho é tão fora de moda

    Thank you Halloween Spirit, I was looking for something to get me in the mood this drab afternoon at work and The Pierces was suggested to me by YouTube after listening to Tim Burton's Nightmare Before Christmas soundtrack. I like every song so far. It started with "Secrets" and now I'm a fan forever!

    C.... H....

    shut up lol, no you're not.

    C.... H....

    Wow, I guess you are... I'm not used to kids being on here still. lol 

    C.... H....

    j.... a....

    +julia alexander Yes...you are the only person thinking that. =-/

    j.... a....

    I tought I was the only one 😂

    j.... a....

    :v who's that??

  51. x.... T....

    My favorite song is Secret it reminds me of fall for some reason.

  52. j.... m....

    Great video and catchy song by two beautiful girls 

  53. D.... T....

    I miss the old pierces...new stuff is fine but this kind of song is million times better.

    D.... T....

    +Daniel Toneatti This isn't that new.

    D.... T....

    +Wynne Carluk this is the old

    D.... T....

    Reading is pretty fundamental so is punctuation placement

  54. �.... T....

    Both of them is pretty ^_^

  55. J.... W....

    I just love videos where they dance and move together. There is such fluidity and synchronization in their movements. The ballet training really shows.

  56. S.... T....

    LOVE THE PIERCES, GREAT VIDEO AND NEW ALBUM.

  57. k.... ....

    Their music is catchy and I really like their style. They're super sexy, but not slutty about it.

    k.... ....

    +kix4fun
    i have been trying to get my head around these dance moves for a wile now, and i landed on my cats tail

    k.... ....

    +Eden Biehler Did it hurt? =-O

    k.... ....

    it was a hard floor, so yes. (but I think it hurt the cat more then me)

    k.... ....

    They are just perfect

  58. A.... M....

    In some parts the blonde looks like Emma stone or is it just me

  59. �.... �....

    сёстры пирсессс россия любит вас !!!

  60. T.... R....

    Love EVERYTHING about this! The song, the drsses, the  music video, the pierces! LOVE ALL OF IT :D

  61. L.... M....

    The black clothes is soooo pretty on them omg *----*

  62. C.... T....

    I try really hard each time, but I just cannot not watch the blonde. I mean, I really try to watch the whole scene with both of them at once, but the blonde is just a stare magnet

  63. N.... N....

    I love Catherine's voice in this!

    N.... N....

    Which one is Catherine?

    N.... N....

    The blonde is Catherine and the brunette is Allison.

  64. N.... M....

    The clothes in this video are so cute!

  65. n.... ....

    Only you girls could pull this off. It's perfect, and very creative. 

  66. k.... s....

    i think there sooo pretty i love the skinnier one

    k.... s....

    You couldn't say the blonde or brunette one... Like, are you kidding me right now they're both extremely skinny

    k.... s....

    @Sydney Miles Extremely skinny?  I wouldn't go that far.  "Extremely skinny makes me think of an anorexic person.  Why would anyone want to be skinny, anyway?

    k.... s....

    i think theyre pretty but yeah the blonde one does play the role better the brunnete looks like trying to try

    k.... s....

    @karen baldwin Go away! We don't need fans like you. The Pierces wouldn't be the same without Allison.

    k.... s....

    He never said anything bad about Allison or insulted her.... why so offended? A guy has the right on his on opinion and preference.

  67. L.... N....

    Awesome

  68. e.... ....

    They have the BEST videos!!

  69. M.... A....

    I love this song...but I hate the video.....

    M.... A....

    @Morgan Angus Aww...really? I think it's such a cute nod to Chicago. They're totally Velma and Roxying it up :)

  70. A.... B....

    Wawe kryza

  89. M.... M....

    Saying*

  90. M.... M....

    I'm sick of ppl dating "the blonde" "the brunette" its Catherine and Allison. Gtfo if you don't know that.

    M.... M....

    Melanie Madison legitimately thought I was the only black fan

  91. D.... H....

    the blond is so pretty! espiecally with short hair

  92. A.... C....

    I'm just wondering how many dresses were used...

  93. c.... ....

    HOW THE HELL DOES THIS NOT HAVE A HUNDRED TIMES MORE VIEWS.

  94. N.... ....

    Am I the one who thinks Allison looks like Khloe Kardashian?

  95. C.... M....

    the blonde one dosent mainly sing you would have to see them live to know

  96. i.... ....
