Queen Double Standard Lyrics - Singles - Aaron Tinjum And The Tangents

[Verse 1] 

You played the damsel in distress 

Damn desiring another man's caress 

Under the sheets of some forbidden silk 

With a thread count that could cover up the guilt 

From your scandal 

[Chorus] 

Queen Double Standard 

You made your bed 

Now won't you sleep in it, too? 

When you want to 

Whatever you're out to prove 

Well, who needs proof 

When all the truth 

Was left to you? 

[Verse 2] 

You had an empire and a fantasy 

Brought down by foreign and domestic enemies 

You played the victim in a tragic scene 

Ain't it fun to play pretend and make believe? 

I will not pander 

[Chorus] 

Queen Double Standard 

You made your bed 

Now won't you sleep in it, too? 

When you want to 

Whatever you're out to prove 

Well, who needs proof 

When all the truth 

Was left to you? 

[Bridge] 

Why should I explain when you know what you did? 

Bounced around some beds 

Disappeared for the weekend 

Ring ring goes the bells of your phone 

Knock knock knock but no one's home 

Why should I explain when you know what you did? 

Bounced around some beds 

Disappeared for the weekend 

Ring ring goes the bells of your phone 

Knock knock knock but no one's home 

Who dethroned me? 

Took my crown and exiled me? 

And defiled everything about me 

Until I'm screaming jealously 

"it's all for you" 

[Chorus] 

Queen Double Standard 

You made your bed 

Now won't you sleep in it, too? 

When you want to 

Whatever you're out to prove 

But who needs proof 

When all the truth 

Is left to you? 

Who needs proof 

When all the truth 

Is lost on you?
