Wounded Prince

Wounded prince, where's your daddy? he's out watching the fat lady sing

Did you break your leg? did you bloody your nose?

The cameras are here, to watch your blue blood flow

Your mother's being poked by some bloke in the bahamas

Wounded prince, where's your grandma?

The tourists are watching the changing of the diapers

Wounded prince, wrapped in swaddling scandal,

How much yellow press can your blue blood handle?

Your mother's being poked by some bloke in the bahamas

Money money, the richest boy in the world

Money money, you aint being spoiled

Your mother's being poked by some bloke in the bahamas

Wounded prince, the doctors are giving a press conference,

The cameras are gathered for a portrait of your sarcopha

Gus wounded prince, no you aint dead yet!

You fell off that pony and made the stock market sweat

Your mother's being poked by some bloke in the bahamas

Money money, the richest boy in the world

Money money, no you aint being spoiled

Your mother's being poked by some bloke in the bahamas.
