Lying on a fake beach
She'll never get a tan
Baby I'm gonna leave you drowning
Until you reach for my hand

In the night your heart is full
And by the morning, empty.
But baby I'm the one who left you, you're not the one who left me

[Chorus]
When you're around me, I'm radioactive
My blood is burning, radioactive
I'm turning radioactive
My blood is radioactive
My heart is nuclear
Love is all that I fear
I'm turning radiactive
My blood is radiactive

Waiting for the night fall, for my heart to light up
Oh baby I want you to die for,
For you to die for my love

In the night your heart is full
And by the morning, empy...

"Mowgli's Road"

Cuckoo (cuckoo)
Cuckoo (cuckoo)
Cuckoo (cuckoo)
Cuckoo (cuckoo)

Ten silver spoons coming after me,
One life with one dream on repeat.
I'll escape if I try hard enough,
'Til King of the Jungle calls my bluff

Oh Lord (Oh Lord)
I have been told (I have been told)
That I must take the unforsaken road (forsaken road)
There's a fork in the road
I'll do as I am told
And I don't know, don't know, don't know, don't know
Who-oo-oo-oo-ooo I want to be

Cuckoo (cuckoo)
Cuckoo (cuckoo)
Cuckoo (cuckoo, cuckoo)

You say Y-E-S to everything
Will that guarantee you a win?
Do you think you will be good enough
To love...

Marina and the Diamonds debuted at No. 1 on the new U.K. album chart yesterday (May 6) with sophomore album "Electra Heart." Tulisa, known as a member of pop/R&B band N-Dubz and as a judge on "The X Factor," went straight to the top of the singles survey with "Young."

Marina & the Diamonds, the recording name of Welsh-Greek artist Marina Diamandis, reached No. 5 in the U.K. with the 2010 debut set "The Family Jewels." The new album contains the current hit "Primadonna," which this week climbs back 13-11, matching its debut position two weeks ago.

Your theories, your beliefs
And the way you preach for peace
It sounds like vomit to my ears

Woh, daddy likes to teach
Counts for the muttered words you like to speak
But it sounds like vomit to my ears

Let me fall and kiss your feet
Everybody knows they're cleaner than your lips
I'm not easy to defeat
I know, I know when something's amiss (x3)
Something's amiss

Philosopher my ass
Your words leave your mouth pretty fast
And it sounds like vomit to my ears

I lie in the safety of your bed
Whilst Bob Marley goes straight to your head
How can you compare yourself to this man
Your whole life's a...

I feel like a substitute sittin' on the sideline,
Clickin' every single finger, waitin' for the right time.
I feel like a substitute sittin' pretty in my prime,
I'm about to play the game 'cause I'm runnin' out of time.

Drop your knees to the floor, hands to the sky,
Give a round of applause for the great Miss Y!

I walked all night long in the dark just to be standing here,
Only to feel like nobody, I'm Miss Y am I here?
I walked all night long in the dark just to be standing here,
Only to feel like nobody, I'm Miss Y am I here?
And the lights stay. the stronger, the longer that you have to wait.

I've lived a lot of different lives
Been different people many times
I live my life in bitterness
And fill my heart with emptiness

And now I see, I see it for the first time,
There is no crime in being kind
Not everyone is out to screw you over.
Maybe, oh just maybe they just wanna get to know ya.

Now the time is here,
Baby you don't have to live your life in fear
And the sky is clear, is clear of fear

Don't wanna live in fear and loathing
I wanna feel like I am floating
Instead of constantly exploding
In fear and loathing

Got different people inside my head
I wonder which one that they like best
I'm done with...

I wanna be a bottle blonde
I don’t know why but I feel conned
I wanna be an idle teen
I wish I hadn’t been so clean

I wanna stay inside all day
I want the world to go away
I want blood, guts and chocolate cake
I wanna be a real fake

Yeah I wish I’d been a, wish I’d been a teen, teen idle
Wish I’d been a prom queen fighting for the title
Instead of being sixteen and burning up a bible
Feeling super, super (super!) suicidal
The wasted years, the wasted youth
The pretty lies, the ugly truth
And the day has come where I have died
Only to find I’ve come alive

I wanna be a virgin pure
A 21st century whore...

Millions of girls float on their one quote
Living on their last hope, on their last hope
I live my life inside a dream
Only waking when I sleep
I would sell my sorry soul, if I could have it all

My life is a play, is a play, is a play
My life is a play, is a play, is a play
Yeah I’ve been living in the state of dreaming
living in a make-believe land
living in the state of dreaming, of dreaming, of dreaming

All I really want is to be wonderful
People in this town they, they can be so cruel
I live my life inside a dream,
only waking when I sleep
If I could sell my sorry soul, I would have it all

My life is...

Every boyfriend is the one
Until otherwise proven
The good are never easy
The easy never good
And loving never happens like you think it really should

Deception and perfection are wonderful traits
One will breed love
the other hate
you'll find me in the lonely hearts
under 'I'm after a brand new start'

And I don't belong to anyone

They call me Homewrecker
Homewrecker
They call me Homewrecker
Homewrecker

Girls and their curls and their gourmet vomit
Boys and their toys and their six inch rockets
We're all very lovely 'til we get to know each other
As we stop becoming friends and we start becoming lovers

And I...

Yeah I feel I'm watered down
Whenever he's around
I put on the crown of clowns
And melt slowly to the ground

Yeah I feel it coming on
When I've been static for too long
And an explosion comes in time
Before I go and cross the line

They say you used to be so kind
I never knew you had such a dirty mind
Well, I went to the doctors believing
The devil had control over me
I was finding it hard to breath and
Finding it hard to fight the feeling

When my heart just burst like a glass balloon
And let it fly too high and it shattered too soon
I was the wrong damn girl in the wrong damn room
I broke my glass balloon

Laid out the day inside a lonely bed,
Trying to hide the hole inside my head.
Watching the stars slide down to reach the end.
The sleep is not my friend.

Drinking champagne to forget yesterday
Coz I remember, the way, the way, the way
It ended the day, the day, the day, the day
That I walked away, away, away, away.

Drinking champagne, made by the angel
Who goes by the name of Glitter and Gabriel
Drinking champagne made all the angels,
Tears and pain, but I feel celestial.

Elderly stars slide down the morning sky,
Slipping away to find a place to die.
I wonder when the night will reach it's end.
The sleep...

You can paint me any color
And I can be your clown
But you ain't got my number
Yeah, you can't pin me down
Yeah, you can't pin me down
Yeah, you can't pin me down

Now I got your back up
What do you not like
Do you think I'm stuck-up
'Cause I'm always picking fights
You might think I'm one thing,
But I am another
You can't call my bluff
Time to back off, motherfucker

Do you really want me to write a feminist anthem
I'm happy cooking dinner in the kitchen for my husband
Yeah, yeah

You can paint me any color
And I can be your clown
But you ain't got my number
No, you can't pin me down
Yeah, you can't pin me down

"Guilty"

I was dreaming something dark,
Hiding body parts.
A broken dog, a broken leg,
I left it cold, I left it dead.

Oh I'm a guilty one,
And know what I have done.
Yeah, I'm a troubled one,
And I won't be forgiven.

Guilty on the run,
And I know what I have done.
Guilty on the run,
And I'm never forgiven.

I was just a kid,
That you could not forgive,
Because it's harder.

I was just a kid,
And all I really wanted,
Was my father.

I killed a dog so smart and rare.
Touched his techni-coloured hair.
I left it bruised and black and lame.
I left it running full of shame.

Oh I'm a guilty one,
And know what I have done.
Yeah,...

Lying on a fake beach, you'll never get a tan,
Baby I'm gonna leave you drowning until you reach from my hand

In the night your heart is full and by the morning empty
Well baby I'm the one who left you you're not the one who left me.

When you're around me I'm Radioactive
My blood is burning Radioactive

I'm turning Radioactive

My heart is nuclear
Love is all that I fear
I'm turning Radioactive

Waiting for the nightfall
For my heart to light up
Oh baby I want you to die for

Grandpa was a miner, and he gave me my black art,
Glittered rivers of black coal-dust tore our country apart,
Covered in coal-dust, waking up too early in the morning,
Covered in coal-dust, waiting for the moment the canary sings.

Mama was a mermaid and a Carnaby street gal,
She could have been a model, but she spent her life mopping up spilt milk,

Covered in sea salt, would he, could he be home when the stars came out to party,
Covered in sea salt, yeah I know it was my fault, but he always ran away 'cause he didn't want me.

Oh, Daddy was a sailor, and he gave me a black heart,
Daddy was a sailor,...

Sex, Sex, Sex, Sex, Sex, Sex, Sex, Sex
Yeah
Sex, Sex, Sex, Sex, Sex, Sex, Sex, Sex, Sex
(La la la)

Nothing is provocative anymore
Even for kids
No room for imagining
'Cause everyone's seen everything
Question what the TV tells you
Question what a pop star sells you
Question mom and question dad
Question good and question bad

If history could set you free (from who you were supposed to be)
If sex in our society (didn't tell a girl who she would be)
'Cause all my life I've tried to fight what history has given me

Sex, Sex, Sex, Sex, Sex, Sex, Sex, Sex
Yeah
Sex, Sex, Sex, Sex, Sex, Sex, Sex, Sex, Sex

Feeling like a loser
Feeling like a bum
Sitting on the outside
Observing the fun

Don't get on my bad side
I can work a gun
Hop into the backseat baby
I'll show you some fun

These people are really weird,
And they're giving me the fear
Just because you know my name
Doesn't mean you know my game

I look myself in the face
And whisper "I'm in the wrong place"
Is there more to lose than gain
If I go on my own again? (On my own again)

Inside the outsider (on my own again)
Inside the outsider (on my own again)
Inside the outsider (on my own again)
Inside...

People are connecting
Don't know what to say
I'm good at protecting...
