Jesse Malin - Queen of the Underworld lyrics

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 have turned 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, etc. Don't turn around
