lyrics

The Queen of America
=================

Well they made up a figure
And they called it you
And they bought you a market
For the things you do
And you drop like a name
Right into the scene
You're the Queen of America
But what does that mean?

Well they made you a promise
And they kept it too
And you're sure you earned it
Cause you always knew
But I pulled your file
And a funny thing
You're the Queen of America
But who's your King?

Well they made up a figure
And they called it you
And they brought you to market
With the things you do
And you drop like a name
Right into the scene
You're the Queen of America
But what does that mean?
