Rodney The Princess

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Rodney sits on the sill Tail curled like a question mark Silk bow on a collar of steel Paws like knives in the dark He blinks once, whole room freezes Milk in the dish turns sour He purrs like he owns your secrets Then he counts down the hour [Pre-Chorus] Pretty little grin Bad little crown If you let him in He won’t leave now [Chorus] Rodney the pretty princess Pretty, pretty princess He’ll scratch your name in the door Rodney the pretty princess Pretty, pretty princess Then he’ll come back for more (come back for more) [Verse 2] He sleeps on your folded sweater Like a king in a borrowed bed But one eye stays half-open And the mice all play dead At midnight he starts his opera Soft paws on the kitchen floor You swear that you heard him laughing From under the cellar door [Pre-Chorus] Pretty little grin Bad little crown If you let him in He won’t leave now [Chorus] Rodney the pretty princess Pretty, pretty princess He’ll scratch your name in the door Rodney the pretty princess Pretty, pretty princess Then he’ll come back for more (come back for more) [Bridge] He don’t want your toys He don’t want your gold He wants every heart in the house To grow cold, cold, cold [Final Chorus] Rodney the pretty princess Pretty, pretty princess He’ll scratch your name in the door Rodney the pretty princess Pretty, pretty princess Then he’ll come back for more Rodney the pretty princess Pretty, pretty princess Bow down to the floor (Pretty princess)
