Lyrics Jesse Malin

Jesse Malin

Queen Of The Underworld

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
