lyrics

Lilly's on the mountain
She's not coming down
She's so full of herself
I gotta get her our some how

I brought her records
A bunch of seedless grapes
Some matches for her candles
A lantern just in case

She lit my hair on fire
Crushed the grapes into fine wine
She broke every record
Put the needle in my eye

I swear she's the queen of the guillotine
I am just another man laying out his neck

I've got a high, high class kind of problem
That's the only kind of woman for me

Out in the cafes
The boys have lost their heads
All that's left are skinny jeans
Cynicism and cigarettes

Lord, they never realize
As they bend to kiss her rings
She's got all our lives
Hanging from a string

I swear she's the queen of the guillotine
And I am just another man laying out his neck

I've got a high, high class kind of problem
That's the only kind of woman for me

Lilly killed me dead last night
As she came down from her thrown
I didn't even try to fight
I let her take me home

I swear, she's the queen of the guillotine
And I am just another man laying out his neck

I've got a high, high class kind of problem
That's the only kind of woman for me

Honey, I would die for you
Die for you and more

Honey, I would die for you
Die for you and more

Honey, I would die for you
Die for you and and more
