D5 D5 It's at times such as this she'd be tempted to spit B5 D5 If she wasn't so ladylike G5 D5 She imagines how she might have lived E5 E5 E5 A5 back when legends and history collide D5 D5 B5 So she looks to her prince finding since he's so charmingly D5 slumped at her side G5 D5 Those days are recalled on the gallery wall B5 B5 E5 And she's waiting for passion or humor to strike A5 G5 What shall we do, what shall we do with all this useless beauty? G5 A5 D5 All this useless beauty D5 D5 Good Friday arrived, the sky darkened on time B5 D5 'Til he almost began to negotiate G5 D5 E5 E5 E5 A5 She held his head like a baby and said "It's okay if you cry" D5 D5 Now he wants her to dress as if you couldn't guess B5 D5 He desires to impress his associates G5 D5 But he's part ugly beast and Hellenic deceased B5 B5 E5 So she finds that the mixture is hard to deny CHORUS C5 D5 G5 She won't practice the looks from the great tragic books G5 G5 E5 That were later disgraced to face celluloid C5 D5 G5 It won't even make sense but you can bet C5 D5 G5 If she isn't a sweetheart or plaything or pet C5 A5 The film turns her into an unveiled threat D5 D5 Nonsense prevails, modesty fails B5 A5 Grace and virtue turn into stupidity G5 D5 E5 E5 E5 A5 While the calendar fades almost all barricades to a pale compromise D5 D5 And our leaders have feasts on the backsides of beasts B5 A5 They still think they're the gods of antiquity G5 D5 If something you missed didn't even exist B5 B5 E5 It was just an ideal -- is it such a surprise?
