I wanted to prove my love
he was so hard to convince
it was so hard to get his attention
but every so often, we’d kiss
and every so often I’d get so proud
that such a powerful man called me his
that’s why I took that bite of cyanide
he was so difficult to convince
the parties were grand and fantastic
I’d only known boys before
my man, the world didn’t understand
and so I guess the whole world declared war
I kept thinking that, soon, things would change
soon, we’d be married, front page
he’d be proud to tell everyone, they’d all know my name
I guess that did happen in a way
and he gave me one last kiss
I wanted to prove my love
he was so hard to resist
millions of citizens mesmerized by his might
I lay in wait for the cyanide to kick in
