The Queen
There once was a girl who'd had a bad day
She fell like a dog in the drain
Her high heeled shoes were velvety red
And they caused her nothing but pain
And she swore that day she would take revenge
On her enemies
She'd worked, she'd toiled
Her youth had been spoiled
She'd bet every penny on this
She'd had it all planned
She'd done all the work
But somehow it all turned to shit
And now there she lay like a vagrant
Stripped of her dignity
I want a lover I don't want a friend
I just want all of the things
To myself in the end
I want courage, I want control
I want to make it before I grow old
I won't be followed and I won't be led
I won't believe all the lies I am fed
I'll be remembered long after I'm dead
I'll be the queen
Twisted and jaded
Persistence has faded
She's old enough now
To look back and see all those
Mistakes where she's made them
They seem clear as day now
She doesn't know how she could be
So naive but it's too late
And she knows what to do
Give me that bottle or load me a gun
Don't be so miserable this could be fun
It will be over before the new sun
And then I'll be gone
I'll be with the stars
Where I belong
Or out in the deep
Somewhere you can't reach me
I'll be the treasure you can never keep
At least in my dreams I'll be the...
Lay me down my weary head
Oh can't you see I need my rest
Lay me down my weary head
Oh can't you see I need my rest
Give me that bottle or load me a gun
Don't be so miserable this could be fun
It will be over before the new sun
And then I'll be gone
I'll be with the stars
Where I belong
Or out in the deep
Somewhere you can't reach me
I'll be the treasure you can never keep
At least in my dreams I'll be the...
