On “Prom Queen”, Molly Kate Kestner tells the heartbreaking tale of a high-school popular girl, whose life is far darker than onlookers might think. Playing on the historical British anthem, “God Save The Queen”, Kestner reveals the fate of this teenage “monarch”, who still clings to an artificial v...
[Chorus]
God save the prom queen
Teenage daydream
Just another dressed up heartbreak
God save the prom queen
Only eighteen
Turned her tears to diamonds in her crown
[Verse 1]
She's the first in line at the party
She's the first in line at the club
And she's got that body, always gotta flaunt it
Everybody's looking up
When she walks by you want to be her
And your boyfriend pretends not to see her
'Cause she's got that fire, doesn't even try
Her booty has its own zip code
All the peasants bow down
[Chorus]
God save the prom queen
Teenage daydream
Just another dressed up heartbreak
God save the prom queen
Only eighteen
Turned her tears to diamonds in her crown
Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
[Verse 2]
Take a look at the future
Who knows what's ahead?
There's a house on a hill with an indoor pool
And a millionaire in her bed
And the years go by and she still dreams
She's the hottest girl in town
And the makeup's stronger, gotta wear it longer
Just to keep a man around
[Chorus]
God save the prom queen
Teenage daydream
Just another dressed up heartbreak
God save the prom queen
Only eighteen
Turned her tears to diamonds in her crown
Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
Diamonds in her crown
Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
[Bridge]
And she lives her dreams through the magazines
And her daddy's gone and she needs someone
And she's got the looks and the boys on hooks
But she'd trade it all for a heart that's whole
God save the prom queen
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
God save the prom queen
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
[Outro]
God save the prom queen
Teenage day dream
God save the prom queen (She turned her tears)
She turned her tears to diamonds in her crown
