Kings & Queens Lyrics

[00:00.48] If all of the kings had their queens on the throne
[00:03.97] We would pop champagne and raise a toast
[00:07.75] To all of the queens who are fighting alone
[00:11.20] Baby, you're not dancin' on your own
[00:14.73] Can't live without me, you wanna, but you can't, nah-nah-nah
[00:18.44] Think it's funny, but honey, can't run this show on your own
[00:22.56] I can feel my body shake, there's only so much I can take
[00:26.29] I'll show you how a real queen behaves (oh)
[00:30.88] No damsel in distress, don't need to save me
[00:34.50] Once I start breathing fire, you can't tame me
[00:38.20] And you might think I'm weak without a sword
[00:41.76] But if I had one, it'd be bigger than yours
[00:44.84] If all of the kings had their queens on the throne
[00:48.39] We would pop champagne and raise a toast
[00:52.19] To all of the queens who are fighting alone
[00:55.63] Baby, you're not dancin' on your own
[00:59.10] Disobey me, then baby, it's off with your head
[01:02.96] Gonna change it and make it a world you won't forget (oh)
[01:07.79] No damsel in distress, don't need to save me
[01:11.48] Once I start breathing fire, you can't tame me
[01:15.39] And you might think I'm weak without a sword
[01:18.54] But I'm stronger than I ever was before
[01:21.80] If all of the kings had their queens on the throne
[01:25.11] We would pop champagne and raise a toast
[01:28.99] To all of the queens who are fighting alone
[01:32.41] Baby, you're not dancin' on your own
[01:37.61]
[01:51.42] In chess, the king can move one space at a time
[01:55.00] But queens are free to go wherever they like
[01:59.03] You get too close, you'll get a royalty high
[02:02.55] So breathe in to feel alive
[02:07.80] If all of the kings had their queens on the throne
[02:11.13] We would pop champagne and raise a toast
[02:15.12] To all of the queens who are fighting alone
[02:18.66] Baby, you're not dancin' on your own
[02:22.82] Oh, oh, oh-oh, oh
[02:26.26] Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
[02:30.00] Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh
[02:33.99] Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
[02:35.65]
