Down With The Queen

Crown heavy

Hands clean

No more bowing

Down with the Queen

Cards shaking

Roses scream

Wonderland wake up

Down with the Queen

She built her throne out of everybody’s fear Red lips sharp every

time she appeared One little word made the whole court steer But

I see the cracks from here Jabberwock fell and the fog went

thin Now the card men feel that wind Queen looked mad with

a trembling grin Cause the game don’t work when we don’t give

in

Stand up, heads high

No more shrinking

when she walks by

Red crown, big lie

Watch that

power run dry

If fear made the palace Then courage makes it shake

If she wrote the rules in panic Then tonight we let them

break

Down with the Queen,

let the crown fall Red roses burn on the palace wall

No more kneeling, no more chains

Wonderland dancing through the flames

Down with the Queen,

let the cards rise No more hiding behind red lies Shout it

loud till the whole court sees

We don’t belong on our knees

Down, down, down with the Queen Break,

break, break that scene Loud,

loud, louder we scream Wake up,

Wonderland dream

Card soldiers dropped their painted spears Rabbit stopped counting all his years

Hatter spilled tea and cheered through tears Even the Cat came halfway

clear

Queen said off with every head I said no,

and the whole room spread Silence cracked,

then the bassline bled Now her own words sound dead

Crown tilt, floor split Royal rage throwing one last fit I don’t

run, I don’t sit I let the whole court witness it

She is not the thunder She is only noise She is not

the kingdom She just stole its voice I was lost and little

Now I know what I mean

Wonderland is waking Down with

the Queen Down with the Queen,

let the crown fall Red roses burn on the palace wall No

more kneeling, no more chains Wonderland dancing through the flames Down with

the Queen, let the cards rise No more hiding behind red lies

Shout it loud till the whole court sees We don’t belong on

our knees Crown heavy Floor clean No more bowing Down with the

Queen Cards rising Roses free Wonderland woke up And so did she
