lyrics

THE PRINCESS POSES TORTOISE CLIP IN HER HAIR
SOME PEOPLE STARE SWEAR THEY KNOW HER FROM SOMEWHERE
SHE TAKES SHORT ORDERS FROM THE ORDINARY FOLKS
STEALS A SMOKE ON THE PORCH BEARDED GRUNT GRABS A GROPE
I’M AN ICEBERG IN THREE QUARTER TIME
PROPPED IN THE CORNER QUITE UNSUPERVISED
A PRIMETIME GODDESS SHE PAWNED HER PLACE IN PARADISE
PRINCESS SITS THERE WITH A GUN IN HER HAND
SAYS SHE CAUGHT HER OLD MAN BANGING HARD HER LAST BEST FRIEND
A TV TART-RESS WITH A STAR ON THE DOOR
PRODUCER’S DAUGHTER SHOWED UP SHATTERED DREAMS ON THE FLOOR
I’M HOLDING COURT LYING ‘BOUT MY LIFE
PUMPING BLOOD INTO MY FLACCID LIES
THE PRINCESS PRETENDS THAT TOMORROW
EVERYTHING’S GONNA BE ALRIGHT
I’M HANGING ON BY MY FINGERNAILS
POUNDING CUERVO FROM THE HOLY GRAIL
WE ALL PRETEND THAT TOMORROW
EVERYTHING’S GONNA BE ALRIGHT
STANDING STILL JUST WAITING FOR THE SIGN
