Hello
You’ve reached the voice mail of a person in the world
She isn’t here to take your call
'Cos as this message plays
She’s out of town today
In the Philippines
Maybe California wasn’t doing what it does for everyone else
Now she’s out there living out
Her killer resume
She could have been a model
But she took a different way
Now she’s living a life
Without the problems
That arise
When you’re living life for someone else
Oliver Greene
A smalltime resident of New York, Queens
Quit his job and sold his car
And walked until he reached the western coastline
Never stopping
Even when he lost his way
Maybe something changed in him
Maybe nothing did
Now he’s out there living out
His killer resume
He could have been a actor
But he took a different way
Now he’s living a life
Without the problems
That arise
When you’re living life for someone else
Now they’re out there living out
A killer resume
They could have been a couple
But but they took their different ways
Now they’re living their lives
Without the problems
That arise
When you’re living life for someone else
Something tells me they’re gonna be alright
Something tells me there won’t be
Another verse after this part
Now they’re out there living out
A killer resume
They could have been a couple
But but they took their different ways
Now they’re living their lives
Without the problems
That arise
When you’re living life for someone else
Now she’s out there living out
Her killer resume
She could have been a model
But she took a different way
Now she’s living a life
Without the problems
That arise
When you’re living life for someone else

The Lady King sat on her throne
Waiting for someone important To come
And tell her what it was she needed to do with her life
Well, the years went by, she’s still waiting there
For someone
But her reasons for waiting changed
Somewhere along the line
And suddenly everything
Seemed to turn against her
And suddenly everything
Seemed not as good as before
A little girl pulled a Sword from a Stone
And said "Now you all shall call me your King"
And speechless and silent, the lords and the ladies obeyed
Father disagreed with his seed from his steed, and the Lady King had to put him away
Which set the pace for the rest of her lonely days
And suddenly everything
Seemed to turn against her
And suddenly everything
Seemed not as good as before
I was there
When she marched into battle
What a lady!
She
Had a banner with a
Picture of a dragon on it
These are the dates
Of the times
Of the age
Of the days
Of the rule
Of the Lady King
The Lady King ruled long and fair
But sadly her days were to come to an end
She couldn’t keep up with the changing times she was in
Well they came with rockets and aeroplanes and tanks
Screwing up crap and taking names
The Lady King lay down and died
And suddenly everything
Seemed to turn against her
And suddenly everything
Seemed not as good as before
I was there
When she marched into battle
What a lady!
She
Had a banner with a
Picture of a dragon on it
These are the dates
Of the times
Of the age
Of the days
Of the rule
Of the Lady King
