the may queen (bonus track) - richard thompson lyrics

Loading...

didn’t you see it coming, if you loved her that well?
were you too cranked yourself to be able to tell
she was d-mned, she was drifting, but oh what the hell
you went missin’ in action

you were just there to prop up the bar
bask in the limelight from a shining star
while you served up the poison
and drove the car
i hope you got job satisfaction

the may queen, she’s lyin’, sleepin’
crimson from her wound is weeping’
and the one’s who dragged her down to this
line up, her frozen lips to kiss

and weren’t you the guardian of the rose, come what may?
didn’t you see the worm that was eating her away
were you too busy lookin’ in the mirror to say
the carriage has turned into a pumpkin

you’re out on your own now, your own kind of girl
the soul of mediocrity loosed upon the world
don’t be afraid, come on, give it a whirl
adequate always counts for somethin’

(chorus)

they took all her babies, it wasn’t disrespect
if they died of anything, they died of neglect
p-ssion and experience aren’t something you can inject
when the game’s got pieces missing

darlin, where’ve you been
you’re a sight to see
hiding your life of (?) with a bottle of jack tea
do ya’ really have to ask
why does everyone hate me
the sign on the door said “gone fishin'”

(chorus)
