Queen of the Underworld
You say you want a revolution
Something you can touch
Like an age old contradiction
With alcohol and lust
And all the things you have are broken
And you can't go back if they've moved
From dysfunction to this function
You know I'm singing just for you
Queen of the underworld
Took a ride on the tilt-a-whirl
Meanwhile another girl
Out on the street you hear their laughter
And pretty green eyes turn to blue
Everything you've heard I've gotten
Persecution's nothing new
Queen of the underworld
Took awhile, baby, to unfurl
Meanwhile another girl
Queen of the underworld
I never got an invitation
Never heard too much
I'm gonna make a reservation
But I'm not in a rush
And all across this alien nation
Or in a town called Resume Speed
Out on the highway of perfection
We only wanted to be free
Queen of the underworld (don't turn around)
Took a ride on the tilt-a-whirl (don't turn around)
Meanwhile another girl (don't turn around)
Queen of the underworld (don't turn around)
Queen of the underworld (don't turn around)
Queen of the underworld (don't turn around)
Queen of the underworld (don't turn around)
Don't turn around
Something you can touch
Like an age old contradiction
With alcohol and lust
And all the things you have are broken
And you can't go back if they've moved
From dysfunction to this function
You know I'm singing just for you
Queen of the underworld
Took a ride on the tilt-a-whirl
Meanwhile another girl
Out on the street you hear their laughter
And pretty green eyes turn to blue
Everything you've heard I've gotten
Persecution's nothing new
Queen of the underworld
Took awhile, baby, to unfurl
Meanwhile another girl
Queen of the underworld
I never got an invitation
Never heard too much
I'm gonna make a reservation
But I'm not in a rush
And all across this alien nation
Or in a town called Resume Speed
Out on the highway of perfection
We only wanted to be free
Queen of the underworld (don't turn around)
Took a ride on the tilt-a-whirl (don't turn around)
Meanwhile another girl (don't turn around)
Queen of the underworld (don't turn around)
Queen of the underworld (don't turn around)
Queen of the underworld (don't turn around)
Queen of the underworld (don't turn around)
Don't turn around
