Cola
Cola is a sweetened, carbonated soft drink, derived from drinks that originally contained caffeine from the kola nut and cocaine from coca leaves, flavored with vanilla and other ingredients. Most colas now use other flavoring (and caffeinating) ingredients with a similar taste. Colas became popular worldwide after pharmacist John Pemberton invented Coca-Cola in 1886. His non-alcoholic recipe was inspired by the coca wine of pharmacist Angelo Mariani, created in 1863.
Modern colas usually contain caramel color, caffeine and sweeteners such as sugar or high fructose corn syrup.
Flavorings
Despite the name, the primary modern flavoring ingredients in a cola drink are sugar, citrus oils (from oranges, limes, or lemon fruit peel), cinnamon, vanilla, and an acidic flavorant. Manufacturers of cola drinks add trace ingredients to create distinctively different tastes for each brand. Trace flavorings may include nutmeg and a wide variety of ingredients, but the base flavorings that most people identify with a cola taste remain vanilla and cinnamon. Acidity is often provided by phosphoric acid, sometimes accompanied by citric or other isolated acids. Coca-Cola's recipe and several others are maintained as corporate trade secrets.
Cola (song)
"Cola" is a song by American singer and songwriter Lana Del Rey, taken from her third extended play, Paradise (2012), and the reissue of her debut studio album, Born to Die: The Paradise Edition (2012). "Cola" first appeared in a teaser trailer posted to her official YouTube account as a snippet. The lyrics were considered controversial, causing major media outlets to respond.
Track
"Cola" was written by Elizabeth Grant and Rick Nowels, with Grant writing lyrics for the song. When Del Rey was asked about the origin of the lyrics, she explained: "My boyfriend [Barrie-James O'Neill] is Scottish, he deems American girls very exotic. He once told me: "You American girls walk around as if your pussies tasted like Pepsi-Cola, as if you'd wrap yourself into an American flags to sleep." He deems us all very patriotic." It was produced by Nowels, with co-production handled by the production group DK. The arrangement consists of drum machines programmed by Kieron Menzies, who was also recording engineer, real drums performed by Devrim Karaoglu and Nowels, keyboards, Juno bass and acoustic guitar also played by Nowels, slide guitar performed by Tim Pierce, and strings, glockenspiel, brass, organ, electric guitar, piano and synthesizers played by Patrick Warren. The song was recorded at The Green Building in Santa Monica, with Chris Garcia and Jordan Stilwell doing additional recording. John Davis finally mastering the track at Metropolis Mastering in London. The song was at one stage referred to under the title of "Pussy" according to registrations at the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) and Harry Fox Agency.

1621
It was cold that day in January 1931
Working late, high over the ground in the harbour of
Gothenburg
The ground was frozen, the wind was cold and the snow was
falling down
A shout in the dark, the ground turned red - Another
worker was dead
Chorus:
Honour to the workers who built our town
And risked their lives since 1621
To the workers who built our town
And risked their lives since 1621
For all that you have done ... since 1621
Chorus
... Honour to the workers who built our town
... And risked their lives since 1621
1621 - The year our town was born
With a harbour of pride and mighty ships that made our
town a name
A history worth reminding of and tell your kids about
When the people worked and risked their lives and gave us
a place to love
