What the world needs now — new music from Marina & the Diamonds.
And today, Ms. Marina Lambrini Diamandis dropped her new single, “Froot,” which you can listen to below. It’s a pretty tasty electro-pop jam with some new age influences from a singer who suddenly finds herself in a crowded field of female electronic pop singers.
Here she comes to show the new jacks how it’s done. “Froot” was written by Diamandis, with production from the singer and David Kosten, with the video animation done by by Bill Richards. Check out the lyrics below…
Marina & the Diamonds, “Froot”
V1
I’ve seen seasons come and go
From winter sun to summer snow
This ain’t my first time at the rodeo
V2
Nature ain’t a fruit machine
She’s gotta keep her credits clean
Good things come to those who wait
But I ain’t in a patient phase
INTERLUDE
It’s summer time and I hang on a vine
They’re gonna make me into sweet red wine
Hanging around like a fruit on a tree
Waiting to be picked, come on cut me free
PRE
Come on fill your cup up
Looking for some good luck
Good luck, good luck to you
Hanging like a fruit
Ready to be juiced
Juiced, juiced
CHORUS
Living La Dolce Vita
Life couldn’t get much sweeter
Don’t you give me a reason
That it’s not the right season
Babe, I love you a lot
I’ll give you all I’ve got
Yeah, you know that it’s true
I’ve been saving all my summers for you
I’ve been saving all my summers for you
Like Froot, Like Froot
V3
Baby, I am plump and ripe
I’m pinker than shepherd’s delight
Sweet like honeysuckle late at night
V4
Leave it too long I’ll go rot
Like an apple you forgot
Birds and worms will come for me
The cycle of life is complete
INTERLUDE
I’m your carnal flower, I’m your bloody rose
Pick my petals off and make my heart explode
I’m your deadly nightshade, I’m your cherry tree
You’re my one true love, I’m your destiny
PRE
Come on fill your cup up
Looking for some good luck
Good luck, good luck to you
Autumn, I’ll be gone
Birds will sing their mourning song
Song
CHORUS
Living La Dolce Vita
Life couldn’t get much sweeter
Don’t you give me a reason
That it’s not the right season
Babe, I love you a lot
I’ll give you all I’ve got
Yeah you know that it’s true
I’ve been saving all my summers for you
I’ve been saving all my summers for you
Like Froot, Like Froot
M8
Oh my body is ready
Yeah it’s ready, yeah it’s ready for your love
Oh my branches are heavy
Yeah they’re heavy, yeah they’re heavy
CHORUS
Living La Dolce Vita
Life couldn’t get much sweeter
Don’t you give me a reason
That it’s not the right season
Babe, I love you a lot
I’ll give you all I’ve got
Yeah you know that it’s true
I’ve been saving all my summers for you
I’ve been saving all my summers for you
Like Froot, Like Froot
Living La Dolce Vita
I’m in love
Living La Dolce Vita
I’m in love
I’m in love
