David Byrne - Princess lyrics
Your rating:
I saw a princessshe's riding the irt She raised her eyes and I thought that she looked at me In a disco I thought that I'd seen her before She got marriedand now she don't dance no more She knew the doorman at every club in town She'd go out dancing and stay out 'til early dawn When they'd start throwing downshe would clear the floor She got married and now she don't dance no more The lights go outthe train is dark Nobody movesnobody talks... She keeps her body well-hidden beneath her clothes Where will we go when the club's all closed? In comes a business manand he pretends not to see That there's a princessand she's riding the irt In comes a homeless manshe gives some money to him Now she gets offmust be the end of the line Ooooooh-ho-hoshe's looking back at me Ooooooh-ho-hoI thought she didn't see Ooooooh-ho-howe used to walk that walk Ooooooh-ho-howe used to talk that talk
