Queen Of Queen City
I respect it because you're bringing a good sound.
And you make it sound different than people expect.
​
Excuse me, ma'am
Excuse me, sir
Fam, pal, dude, whatever your identifier
He/him, they/them, she/her
I'll use whatever combination of pronouns you prefer
My name is molly. I like to mess around with words
It's kind of absurd, the way I know to lay down a verse
I'll blow your mind with styles and rhymes you probably never have heard
Don't give a fuck about the mess, I'll get your brains on my shirt
This is your warning, I have an interest in dissecting
All the creepy, dark shit that you've been repressing
Been intrigued by everything inside since I was a child
Straight-laced suburban parents saw no sense in the style
Never quite the right demeanor or the sociable type
But couldn't keep the words from coming when I sat down to write
Weird kid sulking on south side sidewalks alone
I didn't know one day I'd finally find my place on the throne
​
Where's my crown?
Everybody gather 'round
When you hear that sound
I'm the Queen of Queen City
Shout out to my hometown
Where's my crown?
Everybody gather 'round
When you hear that sound
I'm the Queen of Queen City
Shout out to my hometown
​
Born a Capricorn so I'm always the GOAT
But it's hard to gloat when nobody's showing up for the show
I tried to up my game and boost some social media posts
So many catfish in my inbox, you can call me Bass Pro
But I digress, it can be a lot to digest
When all your offers are accepted only in acquiesce
And then you hit the stage and give them every word with finesse
Horseplay in my delivery, Pony Express
I'm guaranteed to bring the party and I just won't quit
Act up so much you'd think I took lessons from Goodman and Pitt
Seasonal favorite, summer sweet, something like Pineapple Whip
Refresh your palette even better when I get a little twisted
So put your hands up if you're misunderstood
And know that you can do more than they ever thought that you could
This is my city, grew up here in the SGF
It's time I stake my rightful claim as ruler of the midwest
​
Where's my crown?
Everybody gather 'round
When you hear that sound
I'm the Queen of Queen City
Shout out to my hometown
Shout out to my hometown
Shout out to my hometown
​
Cookin' something in my kitchen
Local classic, cashew chicken
Serve it up a little different
Auditorily delicious
I'm a lyrical magician
Disappear the competition
With these rhymes that I've been rippin'
Loose cannon, ammunition
Hit the mark, I never miss it
When I go a bit ballistic
'Cuz I know they won't admit that
I deserve more recognition
People tend to get suspicious
When your vision's so prodigious
I don't need to ask permission
Not a pauper, not a princess
​
Where's my crown?
Everybody gather 'round
When you hear that sound
I'm the Queen of Queen City
Shout out to my hometown
​
Where's my crown?
Everybody gather 'round
When you hear that sound
I'm the Queen of Queen City
Shout out to my hometown
WOMO
If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't. Why, in my world...
Cats and rabbits
Would reside in fancy little houses
They'd be dressed in shoes and hats and trousers
In a world of my own
All the flowers
Would have very extra special powers
They'd sit and talk to me for hours when I'm lonely
In a world of my own
There'd be bluebirds
Lots of nice and friendly howdy-do birds
Everyone would have a dozen bluebirds
Within that world of my own
​
I need a rainbow, I need the sun
I need to scrub up the things that I've done
I can get hooked on the pain like a drug
Might not make sense to you, but if it does
I hope you know you can still break the cycle
Grow your own world from the power inside you
When you have thoughts, when decisions are final
In the end this is about your survival
Some days you wonder if everything's worth it
I know that perspective, I often observe it
Easy to say when you fall you deserve it
When they expect everything to be perfect
If I was happy, if I was good
Maybe then I'd do the things that I should
Maybe I wouldn't be misunderstood
I'd make a place just like that if I could
None of the pressure to cloud up my vision
Only a world of my own composition
Pardon me if I take an intermission
To get myself into a better condition
Tear out my guts, send them out with the tide
Float around without that weight left inside
But I get stuck when I try to decide
Why I can't mend up that space in my mind
Once in a while I dream up my bliss
I know it isn't a permanent fix
'Cuz the light that I make always ends up eclipsed
By the darkness inside me, my mind's playing tricks
All I want is a place where I can rest
Shouldn't be hard to tune out and reset
But this world suffocates when I take in a breath
So I'll make up my own world to hide in, I guess
I would listen to a babbling brook
And hear a song that I could understand
I keep wishing it would be that way
Then my world could be a wonderland
​
ghosts
You believe in ghosts
That's why I love you the most
'Cuz the sad truth is someday we're gonna die
But if both of us believe
That our spirits might not leave this earth
Maybe after death we'll stay behind
We can lurk around the park
Haunting people after dark
Where the teenagers sneak out to smoke their pot
You could take me by the hand
And in the shadows we will stand
Until they scream and run and drop the stash they've got
Then we'll roll up one or two
And blaze it up beneath the moon
Spiritual transcendence through post-mortem weed
We'll try to count all of the stars
But we'll lose track and then restart
But that's okay 'cuz we'll have an eternity
​
We could stay inside our home
And creek the floorboards as we groan
Then the family that moved in will get real scared
They'll hire psychics, priests, and nuns
And wonder what we've left undone
When really we're just having ghost sex and they're unaware
We could watch our grandkids grow
And watch them have kids of their own
Then watch those kids have kids and those kids' kids have kids, too
We'll smile from the other side
And be glad that once we were alive
And that so much started just with me and you
I know that what we're building now
Can only get better somehow
And I don't ever want to have to let that go
So light a candle when I'm gone
If you go firsts I'll sing you songs
Until I join you there inside that great unknown
​
'Cuz you believe in ghosts and
I believe in ghosts and
You believe in ghosts and
I believe in ghosts, yeah
You believe in ghost and
I believe in ghosts and...
sero
Oh, she loves everybody
She gets along with everyone
So why does she just ignore me?
Never started but acts like we're done
Sero, serotonin
Sero, serotonin
​
I tried to capture her
In the capsules on my counter
Play it off like I've had enough
Truth is I can't live without her
Sero, serotonin
Sero, serotonin
​
Oh, she's elusive
She's there and then she's gone
I think I'm gonna lose it
Why does she have to be all I want?
All I want is
Sero, serotonin
Sero, serotonin
​
I want to make her mine
She brings out the best parts of me
I know she'll come around in time
Oh, sero, sero, she's my missing piece, yeah
Sero, sero, be my missing piece, yeah
​
Oh, she's elusive
She's there and then she's gone
I think I'm gonna lose it
Why does she have to be all I want?
All I want is
Sero, serotonin
Sero, serotonin
magnets
One touch, your skin
My god, my sin
How you're lookin'
Come in, come in
Your tongue, my lips
Your hands, my hips
I'm done, I quit
Can't get enough of it
​
I'm just tryin' to keep my balance
Play it safe but I'm sick of being stagnant
Had a heart of steel, god domn it
But boys like you are made of magnets
Boys like you are made of magnets
Boys like you are made of magnets
​
Your eyes, that stare
Fingers in my hair
Is this just my invention
Or do you feel the tension?
Do you feel the tension?
​
I'm just tryin' to keep my balance
Play it safe but I'm sick of being stagnant
Had a heart of steel, god damn it
But boys like you are made of magnets
I'm jut tryin' to keep my balance
Play it safe but I'm sick of being stagnant
Had a heart of steel, god damn it
But boys like you are made of magnets
Boys like you are made of magnets
​
I'm a good girl I promise you
I'm a good girl, I am
I am careful with what I choose
But you've got me feelin' so bad
I'm a good girl I promise you
I'm a good girl, I am
I am careful with what I choose
But you've got me feelin' so bad
​
I'm just tryin' to keep my balance
(I don't want, don't wanna pull away)
Play it safe but I'm sick of being stagnant
(I don't want, don't wanna pull away)
Had a heart of steel, god damn it
(I don't want, don't wanna pull away)
But boys like you are made of magnets
(I don't want, don't wanna pull away)
I'm just tryin' to keep my balance
(I don't want, don't wanna pull away)
Play it safe but I'm sick of being stagnant
(I don't want, don't wanna pull away)
Had a heart of steel, god damn it
But boys like you are made of magnets
​
three times I've loved
I shared my bed for the first time
Twenty-two and it felt all right
Rough skin and those green eyes
He tried so hard to hide his secrets behind
​
I thought I'd love him forever
I thought he'd always be mine
I thought we'd never say never
But things just don't work out sometimes
​
His name reminded me of the clear blue
And if I'm honest his smile did, too
We'd tangle just like lovers do
Each time we'd rendezvous
​
I wanted to love him forever
I wanted him to always be mine
But he couldn't handle the pressure
So I walked away just fine
​
His laugh rolls low like thunder
It rings over, inside, and under
And I can't help but wonder
If we'll stop right here with each other
​
I want to love him forever
I want him to always be mine
Oh, we fit so right right together
Just perfectly aligned
​
Oh, please, won't you love me forever?
Oh, please, can't I always be yours?
I know it can't get any better
Pick me right up off the floor
We don't gotta want anymore
Anymore
I'm the last leaf on an autumn tree
I'm the last drag left in the cigarette between your teeth
I'm the last leg helping you stand
I'm the last bullet left in the gun that you've got in your hand
​
You need to let me go
All we had, what we made, all we built
It can't stand anymore
I know what I need
Shut your mouth, turn around, it's my turn
To find some peace
​
You're the riptide pulling me down
You're the one throwing dirt over me in this hole in the ground
You're the final shove
That I felt when I fell to my knees and you broke all my love
​
You need to let me go
All we had, what we made, all we built
It can't stand anymore
I know what I need
Shut your mouth, turn around, it's my turn
To find some peace
​
I'm pulling myself up
I'm pulling myself up
I don't need a crutch
I've had enough
I'm pulling myself up
