lyrics

Queen Mantis

A message to you
from the depths of my brain
can't really pull through
i am as dry as rain

strung out it's true
my heart insane
my blood's feeling blue
with the syndrom of pain

young caterpillar
so fresh and spineless
had to crawl out of the nest
for a taste of roughness

how can you ever spread your wings
if you're not reckless ?
how does ugly become nice
and at what price?

Butterfly princess, evil sweetness
weaves her poison net with a kiss and a caress
many-colored devil you infect
every heart and soul you need to control

lilac and rosemary touch
to forget the times when you blushed
down in atlantis
queen praying mantis

snow white charlie-lily
with a vermin coat
too much laughing gas
causes the stomach to bloat

youth is a velvet souvenir
that tastes too much like beer
a bit lipstick to smear
a smile into sneer

Is that how ugly becomes nice
well now, you know the price

Butterfly princess, evil sweetness
weaves her poison net with a kiss and a caress
many-colored devil you infect
every heart and soul you need to control
Butterfly princess, evil sweetness
every heart and soul needs to confess
