Born in the world of a fifty-dollar dream Tailor-made coat with a straight back seam Just can't resist the twilight life of a queen Takin' pocket money givin' shady secrets back Soft-spoken sillhouette is part of the act Mother's undertaker wouldn't dig you a hole in the wall [Chorus:] Glycerine Queen fightin' hard to win Glycerine Queen, Glycerine Queen What's the matter, Queenie, Won't they let you in? Glycerine Queen, Glycerine Queen Five will get you ten here on the prowl again Put your pot of gold in the lion's den Your parasite mind ain't the truly respectable kind Your life-style past is gonna get you soon Spend a few years in a padded room A book full of blues, bad memories to pass the time [Chorus] We all laughed at the Glycerine Queen We all laughed at the Glycerine Queen What's the matter, Queenie, Won't they let you in?
