Paper Crown - Jennifer Brown

Hey, tell me everything you really want to say

'cause when I saw you last night at the palace

You were hunched over your whiskey, avoiding me

.

And anyway, who do you think you are?

You used to borrow my car and drive through the old city

Like a bastard prince who thought he deserved the world

But something made me love you

I guess I was so naive…

You were trusted with my love and now you avoid me

You got busted fooling around and now you ignore me

The truth is like fire in this town

To the prince with the paper crown

By the way, do you even remember her name?

Was it louise on her knees, carrying some disease

She got from her junkie friends in amsterdam

You used to whisper like a cat

Now you hide from me like a nervous rat

But something made me love you

How could I be so naive?

You were trusted with my love and now you avoid me

You got busted fooling around and now you ignore me

I was lusted and tossed out and now you deplore me

My chain’s rusted and I’m breaking out

'cause your life just bores me

The truth is like fire in this town

To the prince with the paper crown
