Paper Crown Lyrics - Vera - 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 

Chorus 

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
