Verse 1: Bm E I'm a prince and I live in a ship and I aim my rifle and I shoot from the hip D Gb And I have a friend I pity Quite a bit Bm She said, “Grab your gun, let's have some fun E Share with me your perigees D Gb I have responsibilities, I cannot run! I do not wish the Chorus 1: Bm Em Death of any living thing, D Gb I might be a killer but one day I shall be queen Bm Em And put an end to slaughter, but until then I'm keen D Gb On staking claim to land and sea and everyfin between.” Verse 2: Bm E I played a game with eleven fools who told me not to break the rules D Gb But when have angels ever helped me yet? Bm E And magic isn't real and anyway it doesn't matter D Gb 'Cause no matter what I conjure it could not help me deflect the angry Chorus 2: Bm Em Death of every hopeful thought D Gb That I might be a lover or a fighter that I’m not Bm In someone's spider web Em Or net I could be caught D Gb But I'm too bitter, better off alone, guess I forgot Hook: D Bm So what do you want me to say, sorry? E D B Should I apologize, when you ignore me? D Bm I didn't ask to be right or to be lonely D C B Or to be hatched into an ugly story Verse 3: Bm E I am a prince and I had a pair of princesses in two sharp squares D Gb But then I guess I bored them both to death Bm E And now I think my calling is to break apart and fall to pieces D Gb Better yet invent a brand new method of ascension Chorus 3: Bm Em I'm impressed, you've managed to survive D Gb But rest assured we'd all be better off dead than alive Bm Em 'Cause when they get a hold of us we'll all be batter-fried D Gb And I'm surprised that nobody's considered switching sides Verse 4: Bm E So here I am, respectfully and royally destroying D Gb Any chance of getting back on your good gills Bm E And I don't mean to be hurtful but if yellows the new purple D Gb Well then bleeding's the new breathing, don't you think I will!
