The Virgin Queen Lyrics

men who shoot their
horses are the
same men who would
like to kiss your hand
(whispering)you love the wait, in the, ballrooms, and the bedrooms, and the, and the...
men who shoot their
horses are the
same men who will
go and shoot a friend
(whispering) save him from chemo, husband from chemo

the virgin queen
the virgin queen
the virgin queen

headless mother
heartless father
ghosts of the yes men in past and future
in the bedroom you must suture
up that hole,
where the babies come through
(engl-oh-)england
never forsake me
won't you take me to have and to hold
i may be a cruel, crude woman
but in the distance i hear shakespeare mumbling
whether tis nobler in the mind to suffer
the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune
or take arms against a sea of
trouble, troubled, jump on us
England England,
never forsake me,
won't you take me to have and to hold
I can hear the voice of rosalind

the virgin queen
the virgin queen
the virgin queen
the virgin queen

In the pen
they try to rule
as best they can
but the crown gets cold
and mind gets old
and all the gold
getting back my soul is in places unknown to be-
in the pen
is just a bed
and the things we have made
have begun to fade
on the distant shores new voices are rising...

--REGINA VOCALIZES--
(Most of this part is not Regina vocalizing, but I've read that if you play the first 2.5 seconds into reverse and it sounds like she's singing: "FAMILY COME HOME".)
