| Once upon a time
|
| I could have had it all
|
| A princess with a price on her head
|
| Or the prince who’d climb her wall
|
| But when pride has it in for someone
|
| None of us can check the fall
|
| Now I’m humble as a bumblebee
|
| I’m getting used to how things have to be
|
| Just another mumble
|
| Buzzing round and round in rings
|
| So afraid that I won’t be king
|
| This is the sting, I still want everything
|
| Here is the twist, you’re on my list and
|
| Here’s what I mean, you’re still the queen
|
| And I want you
|
| Now I wonder
|
| If I will ever be
|
| The lighthouse in a sea of shadows
|
| That you were when you shined for me
|
| When I was going under
|
| You knew when and where to be
|
| Now I’m as good as Ebenezer after his conversion
|
| I’d give all my goods away with no coercion
|
| I’d give almost anything
|
| Just to hear the hum of your wings
|
| This is the sting, I still want everything
|
| Here is the twist, you’re on my list and
|
| Here’s what I mean, you’re still the queen
|
| And I want you, honey, I want you
|
| I was as 'umble as Uriah
|
| Just before his tumble
|
| But I fumbled for the best of me
|
| Amongst the jumble
|
| Heaven knows where we went wrong
|
| Don Quixote or Donkey Kong
|
| This is the sting, I still want everything
|
| Here is the twist, you’re on my list
|
| Here’s what I mean, you’re still the queen
|
| And I want you, honey, I want you
|
| I want you |
