SHE

(rap performance by the Kids of the Queenie)

PART 3

(crazy lady)

alone in the lilies you’re walkin’, walkin’

white tops wearin’

eyes on the trees you’re

paintin’, paintin’

you’re the queen of

the cretins my crazy lady

when you walk into shrines

gates crumble behind ‘em

with their claws they scratch

the cretins at a wedding

you’re the queen of

the cretins

the temp’s 90 degrees

don’t lead me lordy

to her hot chamber

darkness falls from the soul

the wine’s hot and thick

but the queenie’s cryin’

over the snout of a pig

you’re the queen of

the cretins

you’re-a-wi-ld wi-ld qu eenie

we be dancin’ in the wind

I CAN SAY-IT-A-GAIN

you’re the queen of

the cretins

you’re-a-wi-ld wi-ld qu e enie

we be dancin’ in the wind

I CAN SAY-IT-A-GAIN

you’re the queen of the cre . . .
