Jesse Malin - Queen Of The Underworld lyrics

rate me

You say you want a revolution<br />

Something you can touch<br />

Like an age old contradiction<br />

With alcohol and lust<br />

And all the things you have are broken<br />

And you can't go back if they've moved<br />

From dysfunction to this function<br />

You know I'm singing just for you<br />

<br />

Queen of the underworld<br />

Took a ride on the tilt-a-whirl<br />

Meanwhile another girl<br />

<br />

Out on the street you hear their laughter<br />

And pretty green eyes have turned to blue<br />

Everything you've heard I've gotten<br />

Persecution's nothing new<br />

<br />

Queen of the underworld<br />

Took awhile baby to unfurl<br />

Meanwhile another girl<br />

Queen of the underworld<br />

<br />

I never got an invitation<br />

Never had too much<br />

I'm gonna make a reservation<br />

But I'm not in a rush<br />

<br />

And all across this alien nation<br />

Or in a town called Resume Speed<br />

Out on the highway of perfection<br />

We only wanted to be free<br />

Queen of the underworld, etc.<br />

Don't turn around
