KINGDOM OF THE QUEEN Words & Music by Sara Hickman/prompt “exasperated” (the music gets a nod to T. Rex and R.Stones, as youll note when you hear what I do on the guitar/vox/sloppy ass recording) She beguiled you w/a smile humming Blue Nile She popped into your life a sassy sense of style You called her, she answered, you took her on a date You kissed her, she kissed you, you both could hardly wait Hours of flowers … lazy afternoons You’d hook up, you’d look up as you made her Body swoon The tumble and jumble in a Black Sabbath dress Grinning like high school kids acing a test Now when the telephone rings You both say I love you But cha hang up feeling lost and gender confused Together forever whatcha gonna do Living in a kingdom where the queen makes all the rules Kids aren’t slowing, but growing … moving away A bank account, a house in town, she sings for the bank She’s gone, tv’s on…yer smokin’ pot in bed Sleep late, life’s great but who’d ya be instead? Would ya mingle single feel the tingle of desire Dance with different women each weekend in the bars Would you’ve moved to L.A. …be out on tour? Your long hair blowing burning up yer Tele guitar Ooh…What a win to sit in with the Cocteau Twins Trading licks with your new friend Frampton But yer not the kinda guy who questions what could be Deep inside your satisfied in the castle of your dreams Now when the telephone rings You both say I love you But cha hang up feeling lost and gender confused Together forever whatcha gonna do Living in a kingdom where the queen makes all the rules She’s out traveling as a one man band You’re admired as a stay at home dad You never seem exhausted, defeated or mean Caught in the grind of the modern family scene She’s coming or going but never gets to stay Out of site out of mind you love each other anyway She lonely for her homies back home fast as she can Hard to be a woman living life like a man Now when the telephone rings You both say I love you But cha hang up feeling lost and gender confused Together forever whatcha gonna do Living in a kingdom where the queen makes all the rules
