8 Days To Go

Only 8 more days left until the 15th of July. What's on the 15th of July, you say? My sister, Ema, will be back from London and we promised her a swell time at Kotak Merah. As preparation, I have been practising my Katy Perrys. :) I love Katy Perry; from her sense of stylo dressing, her songs and the way she sings. I have never been the "mendayu" type of songstress. *songstress konon*Never liked to sing to the Siti Nurhalizas, the Rossas and the Nings. I see myself as an alternative type of singer. My lagu cari makan is of The Cranberries variety. Zombie and Ode to My Family jangan kacaulah - it's mine. :) Dido and Alanis, me love too.

Thing is, it's getting old. Needed to get the variety going in there and I needed some new and fresh lagu cari makans. Tried Taylor Swift's Love Story the other day and it went okay. But the Katy Perrys? Well, that needed more work. Hence, the extra homework I had perscribed myself. I bought me her (not-so) new album over in Damas the other day and imported them into my iTunes. Got the three songs on my "Current Favourite" playlist - Hot and Cold, I Kissed a Girl and Thinking of You. Had a little bonus in the CD too - the three songs' videoclips! I wanted to upload the Hot & Cold video here, but it is taking way too long! :( So, I am making do with this version I got of her performing live on youtube!





But, as usual, the lyrics to my 3 favourite songs follow!

Hot & Cold - Katy Perry
You change your mind
Like a girl changes clothes
Yeah you PMS
Like a bitch, I would know

And you overthink
Always speak cryptically
I should know
That you're not good for me

'Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in then you're out
You're up then you're down

You're wrong when it's right
It's black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up

You! You don't really want to stay, no
You! But you don't really want to go-o

You're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in then you're out
You're up then you're down

We used to be
Just like twins so in sync
The same energy
Now's a dead battery

Used to laugh 'bout nothing
Now you're plain boring
I should you know that you're not gonna change

'Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in then you're out
You're up then you're down

You're wrong when it's right
It's black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up

You! You don't really want to stay, no
You! But you don't really want to go-o

You're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in then you're out
You're up then you're down

Someone call the doctor
Got a case of a love bi-polar
Stuck on a roller coaster
Can't get off this ride

You change your mind
Like a girl changes clothes

'Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in then you're out
You're up then you're down

You're wrong when it's right
It's black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up

'Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in then you're out
You're up then you're down

You're wrong when it's right
It's black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up

You! You don't really want to stay, no
You! But you don't really want to go-o

You're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in then you're out
You're up then you're down


I Kissed A Girl - Katy Perry
This was never the way I planned
Not my intention
I got so brave, drink in hand
Lost my discretion
It's not what, I'm used to
Just wanna try you on
I'm curious for you
Caught my attention

I kissed a girl and I liked it
The taste of her cherry chapstick
I kissed a girl just to try it
I hope my boyfriend don't mind it
It felt so wrong
It felt so right
Don't mean I'm in love tonight
I kissed a girl and I liked it
I liked it

No, I don't even know your name
It doesn't matter
You're my experimental game
Just human nature
It's not what
Good girls do
Not how they should behave
My head gets so confused
Hard to obey

I kissed a girl and I liked it
The taste of her cherry chapstick
I kissed a girl just to try it
I hope my boyfriend don't mind it
It felt so wrong
It felt so right
Don't mean I'm in love tonight
I kissed a girl and I liked it
I liked it

Us girls we are so magical
Soft skin, red lips, so kissable
Hard to resist so touchable
Too good to deny it
Ain't no big deal, it's innocent

I kissed a girl and I liked it
The taste of her cherry chapstick
I kissed a girl just to try it
I hope my boyfriend don't mind it
It felt so wrong
It felt so right
Don't mean I'm in love tonight
I kissed a girl and I liked it
I liked it


Thinking of You - Katy Perry

Comparisons are easily done
Once you've had a taste of perfection
Like an apple hanging from a tree
I picked the ripest one, I still got the seed

You said move on, where do I go?
I guess second best is all I will know

'Cause when I'm with him I am thinking of you
(Thinking of you, thinking of you)
Thinking of you, what you would do
If you were the one who was spending the night
(Spending the night, spending the night)
Oh, I wish that I was looking into your eyes

You're like an Indian summer in the middle of a winter
Like a hard candy with a surprise center
How do I get better once I've had the best?
You said there's tons of fish in the water, so the waters I will test

He kissed my lips, I taste your mouth, oh!
(Taste your mouth)
He pulled me in, I was disgusted with myself

'Cause when I'm with him I am thinking of you
(Thinking of you, thinking of you)
Thinking of you, what you would do
If you were the one who was spending the night
(Spending the night, spending the night)
Oh, I wish that I was looking into

You're the best, and yes, I do regret
How I could let myself let you go
Now, now the lesson's learned
I touched it, I was burned
Oh, I think you should know!

'Cause when I'm with him I am thinking of you
(Thinking of you, thinking of you)
Thinking of you, what you would do
If you were the one who was spending the night
(Spending the night, spending the night)
Oh, I wish that I was looking into your, your eyes
Looking into your eyes, looking into your eyes

Oh, won't you walk through?
And bust in the door and take me away?
Oh, no more mistakes
'Cause in your eyes I'd like to stay, stay
