Music Is a Princess Songtext
von Prefab Sprout

Musicis a princess
I′mjust a boy, in rags
Iwould gladly spend my life
Carrying her flags

Fromthe first time I heard her
Thesound of her voice
Andher beauty completely bewitched me,
I waslost then and there
I wasgiven no choice
Eversince, there's been no peace for me.

Yousee,
Musicis a princess
I′mjust a nobody
Who'dgladly give his life
Forher majesty.

If indying I'd move her or make her heart stir
If Ithought for one moment I′d be missed...
Butextravagant gestures are wasted on her
She′sa princess, I'm Oliver Twist.


Musicis a princess
I′mjust a boy, in rags
I'dgladly spend my life
Carrying her bags

Iftheir weight is much greater than I first supposed
I′dremember my oath of allegiance
Truelove is a monarch who won't be deposed,
Treason hasn′t a chance.

Musicis a princess
I'mjust a boy, in raaa-aags

Musicis a princess
I willremain unknown,
Falling asleep at night
Dreaming of her throne

Buther jewels are brighter than my eyes can bear
Andalthough she is something to die for,
I donot have the slipper she's waiting to wear
So mydreams remain dreams nothing more.

Herjewels are brighter than my eyes can bear
Yes, she is something to die for,
But Idon′t have the slipper she′s waiting to wear
I'm aboy dressed in rags at her door.


Musicis a princess
I′mjust a boy, in raaaaaags
Inraa-aaaa-aags
Inrags
