Little Miss Emperor lyrics

You're not giving an inch

You're strung like wire

Your open arms they flinch

Joan Crawford style

Treated like a towel

Inside you howl

On some dark concrete

Midnight street

You've built an altar

That's quite complete

Your self control

Is damned amazing

You're trying hard

And I want you

Little miss emperor

You really want to grow

And you're alert, I know

But babies mostly drown

It's a company town

Cheat gods and joke

Attack your noble ghost

I saw the best minds

Of my generation

Learn how to crawl

Across our nation

Conformity falls

Like one wet blanket

Look how we live

And I want you

Little miss emperor

Little miss emperor

Trying to open doors
