You always looked tired but mostly when you woke up
Your wit was astounding, it pounded into my guts
And we used to stare out your back window
And pretend we could see a future that didn't exist
Between you and me
'Cause we couldn't agree on how it should be
You're hanging by the pool, looking so cool
Sitting in the summer sun
We were all smiling, we were all happy for once
And when they called you down to the podium
You didn't have anything to say to them
And you got a headache and bent down to pick up your drink
And I saw your g-string but I didn't say anything
The chill in your basement gave me goosebumps
But I tried to be calm and asked you how bad it felt
Being out at the prom
Like dismantling a bomb just to live with your mom
What makes you think you're the queen of the world?
Did you hear it from the boys and the girls
Laid at your feet each week to tell you everything?
They seem to know everything
Like they know how you're their queen
