lyrics

the boys hot, lean out of the window
lips apart, tongues suck fast
little smile, and pull out my lip-gloss
lip-gloss girls are meant to last

I’ll take my tears and form a crown
and soon they'll know
I own this town

Mama said, step out from the fire
but little girls we love to burn
pretty soon it's all you desire
well sit down boys, now it's your turn

the scars I wear will be my gown
and soon they'll know
I own this town

get ready for the queen boys
get ready for the queen now honey
get ready for the queen boys
get ready for the queen now honey

Five bucks, I’m all out of filters
Don't think I don't know the trade
it's skin for sin, sin for shelter
I think I know how queens are made

the scars I wear will be my gown
and soon they'll know
I own this town
get ready for the queen boys
get ready for the queen now honey
get ready for the queen boys
get ready for the queen now honey
