Art Deco by Lana Del Rey Song Info
"Art Deco" describes a person's desire to be seen and to have more in life. The person is portrayed as a club queen who prowls around at night seeking attention and feeling at home in the lights. Despite being called "ghetto" and constantly seeking to score, the person is revealed to be just someone searching for something more. The lyrics suggest that the person is driven by a desire to be free and to have fun, even if it means putting their life on the line. The phrase "Art Deco" in the chorus is used to describe the person's cool and confident demeanor, as they shine like gunmetal and seem cold and unsure in their pursuit. Ultimately, the song portrays the person as someone who is unapologetically themselves and unafraid to party like there's no tomorrow, even if it hurts them in the process.
