The Queen

I said no no no no
This is not what I expected
But the queen laughed ha ha ha ha ha
And we all knew that she had meant it

We killed her with our bombs
We killed her with our lungs
She offered salvation
But we didn't care

We killed her family
We burned down all the trees
Spreading our disease
While we fled the scene

And so the story goes
For one to live another must die
And now the whole world knows
But no one wants to try

I said no no no no
This is not what I expected
But the queen laughed ha ha ha ha ha
And we all knew that she had meant it

And then the queen struck back
And we all had a laugh
Cause she was all too green
And we didn't care

And so the story goes
For one to live another must die
And now the whole world knows
But no one wants to try

And I said No no no no no
This is not what I expected
And the queen laughed ha ha ha ha ha ha
And we all knew that she had meant it

Now the trees are gone
And I guess we were all wrong
But we're to far to stop
So I guess this is so long

And I said No no no no no
This is not what I expected
And the queen laughed ha ha ha ha ha
And we all knew that she had meant it
