lyrics

Hi. Hola. Bonjour. Parlez vous la haute monde?
My girl, she takes it to a level well beyond
The high society it courses through her psyche
And then she pounces like a lethal Aphrodite

(She comes from royalty)
And she's mine
(She's from the regency)
And she's mine
(She comes from royalty)
But she treats me hot and cold like a January heat wave

I love her but it's tiring when she's nothing but satirical
(Aaah aaah aaah)
That the royal bloodline passed on through
To this bloodless shrew is a medical miracle
(Aaah aaah aaah)
Anaphylaxis is the payment for her local honey
(Aaah aaah aaah)
She's always finding a new vein to liquidate her old money
(Aaah aaah aaah)

(She comes from royalty)
And she's mine
(She's from the regency)
And she's mine
(She comes from royalty)
But she treats me hot and cold like a January heat wave

(Royalty)
(She comes from Royalty)
She makes me

(Feel good) When she uses me
(Grateful) That I'm stuck with her
(Love life) And its imperfections
(Hopeful) For a better chance
(Flying high) When I stand beside her
(Joyful) When she gets her way
(Mesmerized] By her feline savvy
(Thankful] That I get to stay

That's what you get with royalty

(If the world moves fast)
She's a hypersonic pilot
(If the world gets loud)
She's a megaphone
(If the world gets primed)
She's the spark that's set to blow it
(If the world goes mad)
She's a lunatic asylum

(If the world moves fast)
She's a hypersonic pilot
(If the world gets loud)
She's a megaphone
(If the world gets primed)
She's the spark that's set to blow it
(If the world goes mad)
She's a lunatic asylum, welcoming her children back home

And she's mine
(She's from the regency)
And she's mine
(She comes from royalty)
But she treats me hot and cold like a January heat wave

(Royalty)
(She comes from Royalty)
She makes me

(Feel good) When she uses me
(Grateful) That I'm stuck with her
(Love life) And its imperfections
(Hopeful) For a better chance
(Flying high) When I stand beside her
(Joyful) When she gets her way
(Mesmerized) By her feline savvy
(Thankful) That I get to stay

That's what you get with royalty

about

Liquid 56

Liquid 56 encapsulates the essence of what made 80s indie music great. Flowing through the lyrics is an oddball wit mixed with a keen sense of worldly acumen that captures the sentiment of 1980s' disaffected youth, borne of musical innovation from the golden era of pop music. The music is a distillation of all our inspirations from bright pop to dark metal, and there's something here for everyone. ... more
