Antje Duvekot - Ragdoll Princes & Junkyard Queens lyrics

So you've come to this place You've come a long way You've got dust in your hair And after all this time you're still crazy as hell There were Ragdoll princes, junkyard queens Blessed by the homeless on dirty streets First they drag you down Then they fall at your feet And all the girls with their curls With their bu*tons and their pearls You chased them down You never cared if they were real They touched your hand, took your rose And then they blew away like smoke But they sure left you breathless Down the road you rambled and you roamed And you carried your home On the souls of your shoes you were looking for truth And a love that could put some meat on your bones But you lost yourself inside those sounds In the dime store riches and the carnival crowds And your shooting star it was burning out And all the girls with their curls With their bu*tons and their pearls You chased them down You never cared if they were real They touched your hand, took your rose And then they blew away like smoke But they sure left you breathless On the razor blade of freedom In the heat of your own flame Lies a loneliness napoleon couldn't cross But how can you go back to your fishbowl Once you've flown with the phoenix You may never sleep again Once you've seen that southern cross And all the girls with their curls With their bu*tons and their pearls You chased them down You never cared if they were real They touched your hand, took your rose And then they blew away like smoke But they sure left you breathless
