Strum
D-DU-UDU
She's  on the payroll of the  Vatican Bank,
But  she works in an American book store and her husband is the Byzantine type,
I  asked her what  she had to do at St Mike's
She  said "I came  here trying to remember something  but I'm only in it now  for the  wine"
Her  daddy doesn't run the store and  what's more he gets no  confession from  me
 I Lost My  Motto, I  Lost My Motto
 She expects no optical illusions from me, not that she doesn't give me plenty to witness
 It's just I don't know how to part the red sea
 I don't want to be in his morality play, he thinks that marriage is a good institution
 So let him find a girl to keep it that way
 It might make it better that he's bad to her but I don't know what's happened to my boundaries
 I Lost My Motto, I Lost My Motto, I Lost My Motto
 And I don't think this is an issue with god
 When it comes to the law I wouldn't think I'm a purist
 You cant break something that doesn't work anymore
 And now I'm seeing my life like a tourist
 We took a taxi to a their summer retreat, we changed the locks and the points of access
 We didn't go to the front door for a week
 I found a volume by the side of their bed, I said "I've read it I'm awaiting the sequel"
 She gave me "Under The Volcano" instead
 And said "Now what was that you lost?" and I said "not too much just my fortune cookie"
 BABY FREEZE QUEEN
Bring  yourself to sleep and maybe I can help you  find
Something  so naive it makes you cry
 Everything we thought was deep turned out to be a lie
 Don't blame me coz I've been on your side
Can  you hear me can you read me
 Baby freeze  Queen
 Can you hear me can you read me
 Baby freeze Queen
