Randy the Poet - Killing Floor Lyrics

I used to guard your castle from the attacks of enemies
Until you let them just walk in and take over all that they seized
Because I was blind in love I listened to your words without question
Then I saw you lying there with your crown on the floor

You were the back stabbing princess
I always thought I'd be your prince but you kept me as the jester to the palace
At arms length
Now you're on the killing floor
My dear darling you could've had more

Now that the castle has been burned down
And you married the fool who conquered the crown
As gesture of good will I stood at the gate holding the bouquet at your down fall
Well you went home again and found someone else in your grounds
Don't come crying to me looking to be found

You were the back stabbing princess
I always thought I'd be your prince but you kept me as the jester to the palace
At arms length
Now you're on the killing floor
My dear darling you could've had more

I was huddled in cabinet while you were having your meeting
Trying to get the peasants you once called freaks
Now you're walking around on eggshells trying not to get noticed
But you're feeling just like Cesar saying et tu brute
Well I had to keep the kingdom from falling down

You were the back stabbing princess
I always thought I'd be your prince but you kept me as the jester to the palace
At arms length
Now you're on the killing floor
My dear darling you could've had more
