Princess Coldheart Lyrics - Legendary Pink Dots

Princess Coldheart closed her eyes 

And waited for the kiss to snap the chain between her lips 

They waited proud, they waited willing 

Filed in, failed, and so she killed them 

Sitting on her cutglass throne for 40 years without a phone 

Without a single word 

100 thousand would-be suitors 

Dead because they couldn't move her 

In the courtyard flowers bloomed 

They drapped themselves round tombs and rows of crosses 

Pretty flowers bloom 

They drapped themselves round tombs and rows of crosses

Some were daring, tried the tricks they'd learned in France 

Some would touch her hand 

Money signs etched in their eyes 

She sensed it and one by one they died 

Others chanted poems, even showered her with strange expensive gifts. 

She couldn't read, she owned the best 

She laid their flattery to rest 

In the courtyard flowers bloomed 

They drapped themselves round tombs and rows of crosses 

Pretty flowers bloom 

They drapped themselves round tombs and rows of crosses 

Then, one october night 

The humble village fool caught sight of Coldheart and he fell 

He smashed a rock against her throne 

He snatched her hand and took her home 

Happily they lived forever after 

He wears her chain upon his chest 

She even lets him kiss her breast

In the courtyard flowers bloomed 

They drapped themselves round tombs and rows of crosses 

In their garden flowers grew 

They pick them and decorate their room, it's touching 

It's touching, so touching 

It's touching, so touching, ahhh...
