Story Behind The Song

Fickle female singers screwing up bands!

Song Description

Huge swinging rock song with great sarcastic lyrics about the fickleness of fame and bands, a killer swing feel and a kicking chorus.

Lyrics

PRINCESS

You came wandering into my life, like a dove with a broken wing
Casually blew my mind and said you'd like to sing
You sang a simple hearted song and you talked like no-ones fool
You seemed to be so strong, you seemed to be so cool

You said I'd really like to sing with you, its all I want
Yeah I'd really like to sing with you
I wanna fly to the eagle's heights with you and look down upon
Every faded friend who never knew what it means to rock

You came wandering through the door, your excuses all locked in
Like a thousand times before, it was starting to wear thin
And now you talk like your new friend and you don't come here at all
It seems to be the end, its writ large on the wall

You got nothing in your head but you, its all you want
You've got nothing in your head but you
You're like a monkey c;awing at me soul and you still hang on
At least the junkie called to let me know, he was moving on

Everybody wants money and success
Every girl wants to be a princess
Everybody uses everybody else

You got nothing in your head but you, its all you want
You've got nothing in your head but you
You're like a monkey c;awing at me soul and you still hang on
At least the junkie called to let me know, he was moving on

Everybody wants money and success
Every girl wants to be a princess
