DISPATCH LYRICS - Prince of Spades

"Prince of Spades"



coming back coming home the queen of love enters the room

silence ensues... to the king what have you done to my life

did you take me for a fool or for a wife



and the king is in his court

counting all his diamonds

one by one they do fall



says the queen our pride the prince of spades is coming home

it'd be nice if you could spend some time alone

after all he's in line for the throne



and the king is in his court

counting all his diamonds

one by one they do fall



so now just get up off you ass and

leave all your treasures behind

your son is coming home with you to spend time

show him how a good king should be

and don't ever forget the day

when you turned back on him and me

still I stayed
