I was a wretched man boy I didn't mind my manners I was a locomotive running out of time I played like Casanova Groping in the darkness No one taught me etiquette Or how to toe the line When you were a princess and I was a bum I was good for nothing I couldn't even strum I was alone a long time I drank a lot of red wine I bumped against some forces and I rattled someone's nerves When I found a true love it was truly unexpected When I found that true love it was more than I deserved When you were a princess and I was a bum I was good for nothing I couldn't make you strum When I was a just a wormboy wriggling in the flames I thought I'd live for ever and nothing 'd even change. I was more like a zombie And less like a playboy Everything seemed like a waste Then one day light shining brightly Struck me with those brilliant rays If you prefer to slither Your conscience might just wither You might find a forked tongue became so commonplace If you find a new way You may emerge and one day All those vile conditions Could simply fade away When she was a monarch And I was just a slave Her gifts were simply perfect I met her face to face Fills my heart with gladness And finally made me free She banished all my madness With love eternally When you were a goddess I was just a knave You were an empress I was just a slave You were a geisha I was just a man It wasn't just for nothing But part of someone's plan
