The Light Princess lyrics
by Tori Amos
ALTHEA:
The morning
After the
The night before
The story-
COMPANY:
Scandalous
ALTHEA:
Quite frankly I couldn't care less
I'm the most disgraceful princess
Sweet Bliss
Care to hear more?
COMPANY:
Here are shoes
Well they're more like c*mbersome rocks
These'll keep her down
Tailored shoes customized with great golden blocks
What were you thinking how did it happen?
They say you danced?
ALTHEA:
Yes an air ballet
COMPANY:
Devil's work you are possessed
ALTHEA:
Oh, I'm possessed
Shock, how amazing
For the first time in my life
I feel great
No wait
I feel one magnificent ache
For the first time in my life
It feels good
Better than good
To be me
COMPANY:
What a rotten stunt
What a rotten slight
What an evil witch
What a horrid fright
Threw her mother’s books
In the bloody fire
Throw me of an out
Throw me of an out
ALTHEA:
The morning
After the
The night before
The glory, the fury
COMPANY:
There are laws, there are taboos
ALTHEA:
Well I broke them and here is the news
Finally, I am truly beginning to feel
I seem to feel liking for swooning and sighing
He seemed to like smooching
Sound all the trumpets a prince
Dropped certain hints
That he likes
Light girls
For the first time I can feel
My legs ache
No, I must say
My legs quake
And I must say
He was one edible
Delectable
Muscular cake
For the first time in my life
It feels good
Better than good
Better than I ever knew that it could
For the first time in my life
It feels good
Better than good
To be me
