The Legendary Pink Dots - Princess Coldheart lyrics
[The Legendary Pink Dots - Princess Coldheart lyrics]
Princess Coldheart closed her eyes
And waited for the kiss to snap
The chain between her lips
They waited proud, they waited willing
Filed in, failed, and so she killed them
Sitting on her cutglass throne for
40 years without a phone
Without a single word
100 thousand would-be suitors
Dead because they couldn't move her
In the courtyard flowers bloomed
They drapped themselves round tombs
And rows of crosses pretty flowers bloom
They drapped themselves round tombs
And rows of crosses
Some were daring
Tried the tricks they'd learned in France
Some would touch her hand
Money signs etched in their eyes
She sensed it and one by one they died
Others chanted poems, even showered her with
Strange expensive gifts
She couldn't read, she owned the best
She laid their flattery to rest
In the courtyard flowers bloomed
They drapped themselves round tombs
And rows of crosses pretty flowers bloom
They drapped themselves round tombs
And rows of crosses
Then, one october night
The humble village fool caught sight
Of Coldheart and he fell
He smashed a rock against her throne
He snatched her hand and took her home
Happily they lived forever after
He wears her chain upon his chest
She even lets him kiss her breast
In the courtyard flowers bloomed
They drapped themselves round tombs
And rows of crosses
In their garden flowers grew
They pick them and decorate their room
It's touching it's touching, so touching
It's touching, so touching, ahhh
And waited for the kiss to snap
The chain between her lips
They waited proud, they waited willing
Filed in, failed, and so she killed them
Sitting on her cutglass throne for
40 years without a phone
Without a single word
100 thousand would-be suitors
Dead because they couldn't move her
In the courtyard flowers bloomed
They drapped themselves round tombs
And rows of crosses pretty flowers bloom
They drapped themselves round tombs
And rows of crosses
Some were daring
Tried the tricks they'd learned in France
Some would touch her hand
Money signs etched in their eyes
She sensed it and one by one they died
Others chanted poems, even showered her with
Strange expensive gifts
She couldn't read, she owned the best
She laid their flattery to rest
In the courtyard flowers bloomed
They drapped themselves round tombs
And rows of crosses pretty flowers bloom
They drapped themselves round tombs
And rows of crosses
Then, one october night
The humble village fool caught sight
Of Coldheart and he fell
He smashed a rock against her throne
He snatched her hand and took her home
Happily they lived forever after
He wears her chain upon his chest
She even lets him kiss her breast
In the courtyard flowers bloomed
They drapped themselves round tombs
And rows of crosses
In their garden flowers grew
They pick them and decorate their room
It's touching it's touching, so touching
It's touching, so touching, ahhh
