Queen for a Day

Word has it
birds won't sit
in this special place

nameless grave
come new wave
rain the Downs away

Johnny saw a chance to get rich
Judy saw a chance to fuck Mitch
Doodie got a synthesized zit
I didn't want any part in it

but I gave in to the peer pressure
and we set off at the fall of light
when we arrived to the scene
she was soft somewhat obscene

and we fell to the ground
and we held each other's hands
we never knew, when to pray
but she would be our Queen for a day

Waking me
Shaking me
Heaven knows no pain

Steal brother
Take sister
Whispers like a storm

Now, run like the devil's on fire
learn of your only desire
you may live now as you see fit
I do not want any part in it

But I give in, to the peer pressure
and begin the mighty descend
as I arrive to the scene
it's all bloated to the extreme

and then they fell, from the sky
but got landed somewhat safe
all we are, turned to grey
there she was, our queen for a day

Lived to the extreme
built her dream on another dream
I'm a tree, brother I'm a tree
I'm a tick brother, I'm a flea

So stick to a sunbeam
and ride it out of here
she's frail and will wither away
but she's our queen for a day

Love, come sit
Word has it
The Downs all got away

Grave knows you
Rock owes you
Nothing
