Delving into the realm of complex relationships, Lana Del Rey's lyricism paints a vivid picture of a turbulent love affair. The protagonist is entwined with a man who, despite his physical maturity and charisma, behaves like a child and often leaves her feeling blue with his insensitive actions. He is depicted as a self-loathing poet who blames external factors for his shortcomings instead of taking responsibility. Despite recognizing these flaws, the protagonist chooses to stay, suggesting she sees value in him that others don't. This song explores themes of emotional manipulation, self-destruction and the paradoxical nature of toxic relationships - how one can be deeply hurt yet remain inexplicably drawn to their tormentor.
Norman fucking Rockwell
Lyrics
Goddamn, man child
You fucked me so good that I almost said, "I love you"
You're fun and you're wild
But you don't know the half of the shit that you put me through
Your poetry's bad and you blame the news
But I can't change that and I can't change your mood
Ah-ah, oh
'Cause you're just a man
It's just what you do
Your head in your hands
As you color me blue
Yeah, you're just a man
All through and through
Your head in your hands
As you color me blue
Blue, blue, blue
Goddamn, man child
You act like a kid even though you stand six foot two
Self-loathing poet, resident Laurel Canyon know-it-all
You talk to the walls when the party gets bored of you
But I don't get bored, I just see it through
Why wait for the best when I could have you?
You
'Cause you're just a man
It's just what you do
Your head in your hands
As you color me blue
Yeah, you're just a man
All through and through
Your head in your hands
As you color me blue
Blue, blue
You make me blue
Blue, blue
Blue, blue, blue, blue
