she needed someone who could tighten the bottles
she wanted someone who couldn't yank on her string
she could have used a giant umpire
to call her out when she started to sing
she took her pills to the edge of the forest
she wanted to get high with the deer at the spring
she wanted to dance like a gypsy in autumn
she took her pills, didn't feel a thing
until she started to sing
la la, la la la la
la la, la la la
la, la
la, la, la, lay la la
la, la
when you're the boss ain't nobody to boss you
when you're the queen, people got to shut up
when you're the master all the slaves keep it quiet
the goddess drinks from a special cup
ain't nobody who can tell you nothin'
can't tell you no, oh no, you'd better not
ain't nobody who can remove the throttle
pretty soon nobody is all you got
la la, la la la la
la la, la la la
la, la
la, la, la, lay la la
la, la
the floor is cool to lay upon
the tile is silver and covered in blood
ain't nobody to tell you uh-uh, no, no
they'll find your body after the flood
she needed someone who could tighten the bottles
she wanted someone who couldn't yank on her string
she could have used a giant umpire
to call her out when she started to sing
she took her pills to the edge of the forest
she wanted to get high with the deer at the spring
she started to dance like a gypsy in autumn
she took her pills, didn't feel a thing
until she started to sing
la la, la la la la
la la, la la la
la, la
la, la, la, lay la la
la, la
