Lyrics
Girls look forward
To their tall towers
Only to be shut up like
Hothouse flowers
Prince came without a crown
And with expectations
Try and learn to love the man donโt know if you can
And he wonโt even take you on a weekโs vacation
Well thatโs the truth
Though itโs hard to accept it
The prince had a gun and
She knew where he kept it
Life dragged on like a blues song
Dirty and long
She never had the heart to go
And stay gone
Love can leave you with a fever
Like money can leave you cold
Ten years down the line she come home to find
He got himself a new princess to hold
Well thatโs the truth
Though itโs hard to accept it
The prince had a gun and
She knew where he kept it
So the princess
She called her mama
Yeah the queen sheโs seen
Her share of trauma
Sheโs ridden in the front lines
She gave this advice
You took the ring signed on the line
But that donโt mean you got to play nice
Well thatโs the truth
Though itโs hard to accept it
The prince had a gun and
She knew where he kept it
Girls look forward
To their tall towers
Pacing the floor
Counting the hours
Now sheโs finishing her
Last meal
Flashes a smile Spanish walk down the aisle
Freer than sheโs felt in years
Well thatโs the truth
Though itโs hard to accept it
The prince had a gun and
She knew where he kept it
I said thatโs the truth
Though itโs hard to accept it
When the needle came down
She barely felt it
She barely felt it
And she was smiling when she went
